Our daughter is bright, and we love that ERA keeps them moving throughout the day, taking them to different rooms to learn different things like music, Spanish, and science! She's been there for about two months and had a good transition. So far, we've been very happy here! If you're an anxious mom like me, I recommend you check it out.

After an extensive daycare search we chose Elaine Rosi Academy for our first baby. If you're…read morethinking about coming here you need to get on the list literally as soon as you find out you're pregnant. I got on the list in May looking for a January spot and there wasn't an opening until April. I took it and luckily someone dropped out and I was able to get their spot for January. They also make you pay $100/month to stay on the waitlist but it goes towards your tuition when you start. The building is secure they buzz you in and out. The staff is incredibly friendly my daughter interacts positively towards each of her teachers. They have made me feel at home and at ease leaving my baby in their care. They also have an app that keeps you updated throughout the day and they will send you a selfie! I'm not going to lie and say this is an affordable daycare it's definitely not. However I feel the price is worth it for the education and piece of mind!

I too have to agree with Courtney F. We had our child in this school since the inception of them…read moreopening two years ago. We had concerns with the lack of educational experience of the owner, but decided to take a gamble since we loved the FORMER Educational Director. We also thought the school, with the way they describe themselves would have essential tools, resources etc since the owner clearly did not. Boy, were we wrong. Not long after starting the school, the Educational Director resigned due to not being able to get along with the owner who is a complete control freak (we heard this from multiple sources, including teachers). Unfortunately, it all went downhill from there. The school at this location is like a revolving door with teachers and assistants. There is no consistency or stability. Once your child is assigned to a room, there could be multiple teachers pass by in a given year. I know this happens in day cares but for the money we were paying a month, which was over $1,400, I would not expect that much. A few observations that I would share that are very similar to the above poster are: * The owner is clueless on how to run a daycare facility. I believe she was in sales prior to opening this up. * The Education Director (and yes, I too cringe given this girl that much credit of a title), is very rude and unprofessional on sooooo many levels. It is amazing she is allowed to interact with any of the families, let alone be the face of the Goddard School....And yes, my husband and I were appalled to hear about the Christmas gift list, as well as her favorite store to shop for her Christmas present was Victoria Secrets...Really??? You work at a daycare for Gods sakes, get a clue!!! We both are not surprised at all by this. Also, she only holds and AS in early childhood education. PS - Look at other educational directors in other schools/day cares/preschools to see their degrees...night and day. * Daycare violation report - Child Left Alone - see fox2now files or http://fox2now.com/2013/08/06/map-daycare-violations-in-st-louis/ * The rooms are very overcrowded and chaotic - But per the owner, it meets state minimums....Really, you're charging me more than my mortgage payment and you are "following state minimums". I would expect this from a KinderCare, not somewhere I am shelling out that much money for. Lastly, by no means is this a vendetta against Goddard, I have friends that have kids in other Goddard locations and they cannot believe the way this place is run. After doing more homework and intensive interviews with families across the area we decided to pull our child out from Goddard-Rock Hill. I need to tell you that the attitude and eagerness to go to her new school is unbelievable. I hope this sheds a little of our two cents and save you the aggravations we went through
