The school store is located in there, along with Panda Express, Au Bon Pain, more dining and the 4th campus Starbucks! The overall campus is so pretty and we were lucky enough to have a fantastic tour guide, Brooke P. who is also from WF. The school has so many state of the art features, new buildings, gorgeous facilities and the grounds are so beautifully landscaped. Our tour guide definitely has Pirate pride and really loves the school, she answered all of my questions and I can see why so many kids pick ECU. Our daughter is definitely applying, remains to be seen if she'll be accepted and or attend ECU, but if she chose this school, based on what we saw today, I think she'd be quite happy here!

Soooo, Children's World, Greenville blvd…read more As we were leaving for daycare this morning, my 2 year old told me that his teacher, Ms. Keosha, pinched him on his bottom and told him to go to sleep. I went to the daycare, calmly spoke with the assistant director and she asked my son questions. He told her the same thing he told me. They said they would talk to the teacher and call me. In the interim, I contacted DSS to file a complaint and was advised to contact the police to have an official report as this would be considered an assault/abuse. I did that. The police went to the daycare as they stated they would. The director, Michelle, called me and practically scolded me for calling the police. She said that the footage shows the teacher putting her hand towards his bottom and pulling it away quickly. The teacher said she didnt pinch him but she pushed his butt down because it was "in the air" and was wiggling. Pushing his butt down would help him be still to go to sleep . For a good 15 minutes out of the 20 something minutes that I spoke to Michelle, I kept asking that we focus on the investigation rather than the fact that I filed a police report. She basically said that I was the one that called them so I made it part of the conversation. She then proceeded to tell me that since I involved the authorities instead of waiting for her to investigate and call me, effective immediately, he is no longer enrolled in their daycare. We paid them for the month. She would let me know whether or not they will be able to provide a refund. I'm absolutely shocked with this entire situation but I really feel that I did the right thing as a parent. Even if she only pushed his butt down "quickly", laying on his cot awake and wiggling didn't warranted physical redirection of pushing his bottom down to make him lay flat. The fact that she said she observed her hand go toward him and pulling away quickly, to me, suggests it was pushed forcefully if that is what happened. But my child knows the differnce between and pinch and a push. The way the director has handled this is appalling.

Our experience at Children's Campus was deeply disappointing. Although our child had previously…read morethrived in other daycare settings, he struggled significantly here. One of our main concerns was the classroom environment--particularly the teacher, who frequently raised her voice at the children and spoke negatively about children in front of them and how much she is stressed out at her job. She would then complain about our child in front of him and the rest of the class when we arrived at pickup, which we found to be both inappropriate and insensitive. Ultimately, we made the decision to move our son to Children's World at their main campus, where he quickly began to thrive again and had no problems. In contrast to the feedback we received at Children's Campus--where a staff member told us our child would never succeed in Pitt County Public Schools--he has done incredibly well in the public school system. That comment was not only inaccurate, but harmful. If you have a child who is active, curious, or needs more movement throughout the day, this may not be the best environment for them. Our family found the experience to be quite stressful and even traumatic. Additionally, the school's handling of our withdrawal process raised concerns. The heart of the withdraw policy is for them to not lose a payment. While other childcare centers we've been part of were flexible about notice periods because they would not lose any money due to their long waitlist--Children's Campus was rigid and seemed more focused on financial gain. They had a waitlist and many individuals to fill our spot- thus no lost money. But they still chose to be inflexible. I would steer clear from the place. The first part made me think it was just a bad teacher, but soon I realized they are just concerned with financial gain in general.

We even came back to visit several times after they started kindergarten. And when they did start regular school, they were ahead of the game because they'd both already learned to read and do calculations and tell time. All things that the teachers at Children's Campus worked with them on. I highly recommend it!
