All the staff and teachers make you feel like part of the family. The owner Carolyn takes the teachers recommendations in high regard and as parents can not thank her enough. We have a 2yr old autistic child who now turned 3yr who needed a little bit more love, guidance and structure. Mrs. Carmen, Mrs. Monica and Mrs. Virginie opened their arms and hearts from the very beginning. My son was not able to stay with anyone but with us. He was having a hard time interacting with other children and always wanted to be alone. His teachers have formed a great foundation with all their children from the start. My son now is interacting, becoming creative and socializing with others, he's excited everyday and can not wait to go to school. They have made a great impact on our lives. These teachers are angels in our eyes. We will need a lifetime to thank them for all their hard work and blessings they have given our family. Our 1yr old daughter now attends Mountain Valley, we can see the interaction and the direction the children are given everyday. She has learned so much and loves to do crafts. Ms Melissa, Heydy and Abi always greet you with a smile and are so excited to tell you about your child's day. All the teachers make learning fun and we are all a team in forming each child's foundation. They deserve a 10 star rating in our book. The best part of all is they keep prayer and god in Mountain Valley each day.

I thought this would be a nice place to take my children but quickly started to…read morerealize that the teachers yelled at the older kids grab them and treat them extremely poorly additionally I walked in one day at 9:10 I thought the cutoff drop off time was 930 so in all honesty it was an honest mistake being 10 minutes late they told me I couldn't bring my daughter in there was no compassion there was no careing there was no hey just this one time but hey moving forward this is the rules it was a hard no looked at me straight in the eyes like I was crazy that kind of lack of empathy is the kind of lack of empathy that is watching these children every day proceed with caution. After writing this review retaliation was invoked upon myself and children and information about my child was given out to a third-party with no legal rights in the situation. I will be reaching out to the Texas health and human services and the licensing department with the state of Texas in regards to this institution I would stay far away from here the fact that they went to such means after this review was posted to retaliate on my family is absurd.

We had our children in this daycare for 2 years and every time we brought up any concerns it was always thrown back at us and she made us feel like we were a problem. There is a complete lack of professionalism from the management team. Several times I have gone to pick up my children and a staff member has had their husbands in the classroom. I understand that it is a family atmosphere but I am not paying $150 a week per child for someone to hang out with their husband and not give the kids 100% attention. They also have a lady responsible for the newborns room that watches her own child. This is a repeated cycle. The facility is run down and needs new flooring. I think the water heater broke and they never replaced the carpet. I have since taken my kids to another daycare and have seen how a daycare should operate. IMHO stay away.

They explained that they would come out to do an assessment (we had an ant problem) and then give us an idea what caused the problem and an estimate for treatment. Mark showed up and quickly identified the problem AND what caused the problem, gave us what I thought was a very reasonable estimate to treat the ants and outside all around the foundation. I also went by their office to meet the owner and admin staff right on Renfro. So glad I happened to find this gem of a company, I will definitely have them protect our main house. They are ALL about customer service and that's rare these days!

There response was even though he has not attend yet and will not attend if you choose you would still have to pay weekly. Obviously I'm not able to start my employment due to covid-19 and therefor will not be paid and can't afford to pay until I start working so can I get a refund her response was we don't give refunds. So I thought I put this review to let everyone know how the owners of this childcare treat people durning these times the woman showed no care what's so ever.

She never stays a full day she comes in for a little while then leave the employees there with NO help ( ESPECIALLY THE CLOSING TEACHER) . She has a very bad attitude ( when it comes to her down to her money, or if anything doesn't go her way) and that is not the way you should be when running a daycare she doesn't care about anybody but herself and is very MONEY hungry! She talks about the employees and takes sides in certain situations! Which is also very UNPROFESSIONAL She has had parentS come in and say "my child came home NUMEROUS amount of times with a dirty diaper or someone else's clothes " or it could be a simple question about what happened with your child !! SHE WILL get smart with you !! BUT let you come in meaning business she'll play innocent or she will leave before you come! . AGAIN !! I DON'T RECOMMEND COMING HERE at all , the staff is rude and unprofessional!! Especially the director Kitianna !! And her sidekick Erica , they sit in a circle with their favorite employee or employees and will talk down on the next employee !! PARENTS AND CHILDREN included . I worked with kaizen in 2020 and recently left again due to the lack of CARE she has for employees. It's honestly horrible . If you're looking for a daycare let this be your LAST OPTION, I thought I was in theater school the way they ACTED as if they cared . And if your looking forward to working here again , you'll have to do alot of A--Kissing to get what you want smh I don't recommend .
