Teer House, located near Durham Regional, offers a wide variety of health and wellness classes,…read morefrom baby care for new parents to speech and communication for those living with Parkinson's Disease. My husband and I visited Teer House twice in the last week, once for a breastfeeding class, and once for a class on baby care, both of which could be used as an intro for noobs (this totally describes us, haha!), or as a refresher for been there, done that parents. Teer House is a great big white house off of S. Roxboro Road. It's on the opposite side of the street and a ways down from Durham Regional. It has a big circular drive with very few parking spaces. If a space is not available, you can park in the circular drive in front of the house. The big set of steps mark the main entrance. Typically there is someone sitting just inside the main entrance to mark your name off and direct you to the appropriate location. Both of our classes were downstairs, but there are several spots in Teer House for folks to meet. There are plenty of toilets and they're really good about telling you where they are (not gonna front: this is VERY important info for preggy ladies). There's a Coke machine upstairs, and a few water coolers around. Both classes we took were excellent. It's funny that we took two classes in four hours total (two hours apiece), but the two classes we took on labor and childbirth preparation were for a total of twenty hours (the first was a six-week series with two-hour classes, the second was two four-hour classes). And now I know it's because every parent and child is different. So much of tending to your child's needs is completely arbitrary, but you'll figure it out eventually! It means a lot to have such experienced, friendly, and professional support from Duke. I feel like I have access to a fantastic network of nurses, physicians, and lactation consultants who will be able to help me out whenever I need it. It really is a great program.

Attended a Baby Care Class here a little over a week ago to fulfill the requirement for our…read moreadoption approval. The facility offers many general healthcare and wellness classes through Duke medicine. The facility is large and has multiple meeting rooms for various classes at once. While I had some trouble getting us registered for the class itself, since everything is handled by volunteers, I could not get too frustrated with the person on the phone when they did not get our online registration. However, following up multiple times by phone got everything straight. The class we took was informative and contained a good deal of general baby care information. While there were too many deets on breast feeding, the nurse running the class was a lactation consultant, so it makes sense why that was her focus. All in all we learned a good deal and will be heading back for an additional class with a physician and another class on CPR.

PLEASE READ before you enroll with Our Playhouse Preschool…read more The philosophy is a dream and it all looks and feels picture perfect when you are there BUT the Owners are NOT trustworthy and have wreaked havoc on the Lexington KY community- where they opened a school in 2015 and suddenly closed it with a 2 week notice in January of 2019. To make a very long story short, the owners, without warning to parents or teachers, closed the school with a two week notice in January of 2019. They never paid any of the parents back their deposits, which they require for each student that enrolls unless you pay in full for the entire year. They never paid any of the parents back that had paid in full for the school year (through May). Mostly though, they crushed many people and good hearts in the process. They broke the contracts they had with each family and have never paid them back the money they are owed. Please, don't let this happen to your family! With the best intentions, I warn you about these people. Please, look out for yourselves.

I spoke with the manager, Keisha who said it's not a big deal that it's starting so late, but because this is a for profit venture I would have expected this to be much better run. I'm basically missing work to hear an instructor say, oh no I bet you broke some ribs, and taking time from actual patient care right now while I watch others train. In the hospital setting it makes sense but to pay money for this for convenience is ridiculous. The manager herself really could have cared less as well.

I attended an October 2023 virtual class with John D. This was instrumental in my success (I…read morepassed my PMP exam - above target in all areas)! John was clear in his explanations and did a great job managing time and planning breaks. He also provided invaluable information regarding navigating all of the different materials out there (PMBOK, Process Groups Practice Guide, Agile Practice Guide, etc.). Additionally, the amount of resources at your disposal to help with your exam prep when you take the class through PMA is incredible and so beneficial. I highly recommend the PMA (and John D!) to anyone contemplating their options for PMP prep.

I took the one-week prep course a few months ago, and I've been using the PMA study materials…read moresince. I found both to be helpful (and I passed the exam on my first attempt!), but I found the many grammatical errors in the materials (and particularly the practice exam) to be distracting. The practice exam questions are also very different from the actual exam questions. The PMA practice questions are often a paragraph of useless information followed by a question that requires none of the information in said paragraph. The exam doesn't do that. Overall, considering 35 contact hours of training are required for the PMP application, I think PMA is a good option for PMP exam prep.

We've had nothing but positive experiences with CCA. My 6th grader tested into the AG program…read morewhile in public school but had challenges that weren't able to be accommodated. She was recently placed in a 7th grade math class where she is challenged at her own level and not be pressured by a canned curriculum. My 4 year old was placed in kindergarten because her teacher works hard to make sure each child to reaches their potential at their own pace. When I ask her how her day went, she responds giggling and says "Mommy, we have so much fun and I just love my teacher and friends"! CCA's classes are capped at 12 kids per classroom and has a 4 day school week. How cool is that? You have to determine whether a Christian school is an appropriate fit for your child. CCA has only been open for about 3 years so it is reasonable to expect some bumps along the way. So please spread the good news about our school. CCA does not operate or intend to operate like some of the other elite private schools in the area. We want to grow God's kingdom but we intend to stay small like a close knit family. Also, we have a lot of fun. The principal has a great vision to help grow programs . Visit Celebrationcapa.org. We are looking forward to seeing what God has in store for the future of CCA!  Signed an extremely, pleased parent!
