Great staff! My kids love it. Been going there for several years. Never had any problems. Have had some staff turn over, something Cadence needs to solve. read more

My toddler absolutely loves going to Bearfoot! I love how the staff always takes such good care of my son

My son has been going here since he was 3 months old and he absolutely loves it! He is always happy when I drop him off and pick him up, and I know it's because of the love and care he's receiving. The staff is amazing and is always willing to answers my questions, which is something I value as a first time mom. WE LOVE LOVE LOVE BEARFOOT! read more

This is a great place for your child! Trusted and earned this is the best daycare!! Please do not read or listen or be concerned about a parent that was asked to pick up her child for continually climbing a 4 ft fence, only to tell the staff "not right now". Nor please do not listen to the many of her friends who say this is an unfit place. That lady is an unfit parent....Great job Bearfoot!! read more

My 4 year old son went missing from this daycare on Wednesday. At 12:02pm, my wife received a call from the director of the daycare saying my son had left the property and wandered into the cul-de-sac directly behind the center, but was almost immediately noticed missing, found swiftly, and law enforcement had been notified. She was told that nobody was exactly sure how he slipped out but that they thought he might have slipped out behind a teacher going on her lunch break. A few minutes later, she received a call from one of the officers who responded to the call, making sure that we were aware of what happened. He informed me that the daycare had not called them, rather it was a Good Samaritan who alerted authorities. When my wife got there, the director told her that my son had climbed a fence to get off the property. I called them later that afternoon, only to be told that my son was not allowed back to the facility as they did not have the capacity to accommodate our child. They go on to say that this was not the first time that he had attempted to take off. There was never a single communication regarding unsavory behaviors let alone reports of attempted runaway. On Thursday, I received a screenshot of a post from the Next Door app. My son was caught on someone's Ring camera the day before. He had rang this man's doorbell and took off. The poster was concerned and wanted to know if anyone else had seen him and if he was safe. The timestamp from this video was 11:17 am. Remember we received the call at 12:02 pm stating they had just found him. That's FORTY FIVE MINUTES OF UNACCOUNTED FOR TIME. FORTY FIVE MINUTES MY CHILD WAS MISSING FROM SCHOOL. Neither the police nor I were contacted during this time. My wife was contacted by a man who said his next-door neighbor was the one who found my son wandering the streets and called the police. When the police arrived, they canvased the neighborhood to try and figure out where he came from. That's when a man approached them. He was on his phone and said to the person on the other line: "I found him." "He's with police." "I don't know. Someone must have called them." The man said that my son was missing from the daycare and that his wife was the director. Let me repeat that: MY SON WAS MISSING FOR A MINIMUM OF FORTY FIVE MINUTES. I WAS NOT CALLED. THE POLICE WERE NOT CALLED. SHE SENT HER HUSBAND TO LOOK FOR HIM. The fence my son supposedly scaled to get into the neighborhood is EIGHT FEET TALL. That would have taken him quite a bit of time to climb up, over, and down, while wearing bulky Crocs without getting injured and NOBODY NOTICED HE WAS MISSING OR INTERVENED. He also traveled about a quarter of a mile down the road before he showed up on the Ring video and was eventually stopped by the Good Samaritan. We have since spoken to several of the people in the neighborhood who saw my son and assisted in getting him where he belonged safely and put together a time-line of his disappearance. So, he was gone for I would guess a minimum of an hour before the daycare even knew his location. The what-ifs in this scenario are endless. We entrusted Bearfoot with our child's life only to have them not only lose track of him for an extended time but not be forthcoming with the events that occured. I hope this helps a family avoid the lifelong trauma we now have to live with due to the negligence of this facility. read more

My daughter has been at Bearfoot Wylie since Nov 2018. The staff had been amazing. They love our daughter and she has learned so much. Their safety protocols are great! During this time they have gone above and beyond to ensure parents know what is in place at the school and to keep us involved and informed. They do temp screenings at the door by a friendly face and our daughter goes in excited for the day. Extra cleaning is taking place and face masks are always worn whenever we do interact at the door. While we can't enter the building, the teachers always keep us informed of what's going on. There have been minimal issues since the pandemic started and I contribute that solidly to their attention to safety and health protocols They treat my child as if she is their own. I feel completely at peace knowing she is safe, loved and cared for. We are blessed beyond measure by our Bearfoot family!!! read more

Great staff! Glad that we chose Bearfoot Lodge Wylie for our son. All three of his teachers have been so wonderful and they truly care about him. He absolutely adores them and greets them with a big smile every morning. Keep up the great work! read more
