Our son has a great time there, which is what matters. I like how he gets homework and we can see real progress with him learning numbers and letters.

We've moved around a lot in the last 4 years and we chose Kindercare brands 3 times for the value and trust.

Our daughter's first day at daycare started off with promise--we received updates throughout the…read moreday and felt hopeful about our choice. Unfortunately, that feeling changed completely at pickup. When we arrived, we walked to her classroom and noticed the children were outside on the toddler playground, with the door propped open by a foam block. As we approached, we witnessed a teacher forcefully grab another child by the arm. That moment immediately raised serious concerns. We went outside right away to find our daughter. The staff member supervising the group was not her usual teacher. The supervising staff member appeared to be very overwhelmed watching the young children. When I located her among the other children, her face was very red and there was a visible mark on her arm that resembled a handprint. I picked her up and we left immediately. Before leaving, I stopped at the director's office to report what we had seen. I was told there are no cameras covering the outdoor area. What a huge liability! I requested a refund and we will not be returning. This experience was deeply upsetting, and I would strongly urge other parents to carefully consider their options.

Ever since they were acquired by KinderCare, the curriculum, service, safety, and value have gone…read moredown significantly. Their office staff are nasty and harass parents and discuss inappropriate topics in front of the young students and other families. No privacy or discretion. Their director is no where in site, she's literally not there or hides in the office and never comes out to say hi. Bring Kelly back! The employees are inappropriate. And the quality of the art and work sent home with the kids nosedived, we trash 80% of it whereas we used to save and frame it all. The teachers are very sweet, and they carry this facility on their backs. The level of disrespect and discrimination we've faced makes me sick. The admin staff has us to the point where we are thinking we might switch when we can get in someplace better. The facility is dirty half the time anymore and always smells like a dirty diaper. Our youngest constantly comes back in a dirty diaper like they haven't been checked! And we really only stayed hoping the quality would level out and get back to where it was, but it hasn't. Crème is not worth anything they charge and after our oldest was significantly injured onsite (conveniently off camera) and the staff dodged us (but we handled things calmly), we are looking into our options for that incident and we would never recommend going here. Save your money. They're soulless. I would be interested in a pathway to a better experience and solution for our child's previous injury, but I do NOT want to deal with the RM for this site. So, I will not share my information if that's who will contact me, I'd prefer higher up at this point.

My son is a returning Goddard kid. He spent the summer there this year after he transitioned to a…read morepublic school PreK program last year. Prior to that he was at Goddard from 5 months until 3 years old. We have always loved Goddard and this summer was no different. The admin staff, the teachers and the owner Pallovi are all so welcoming, professional, kind and caring with not only the children but the parents as well. Any concerns you have, Pallovi takes it serious and addresses it right away. The teachers go above and beyond for the kids and my son had an amazing summer there this year. We love our Goddard family and would absolutely recommend them for your little ones... 10/10.

My son has recently flourished in the toddler one room with Ms. Nicole and I have noticed massive improvements in his speech and vocabulary. The teachers care about their kids a ton. The school also gets regular updates to the building. There are nice events put on by the staff too.

My son loved this school. I chose it because of the location - it was right across the street from…read moremy employer. From there, we did the free day and my kid just walked off while I cried. He loved it. He fell in love with the teachers, the students, and would sit in the car telling me about his day. Miss Elisha (and Miss Beth while she was there) is fabulous. As accommodating as you can imagine. When I lost my job, they allowed me to change his schedule to make things easier. They knew my name after that first visit. That impressed me. My son never wanted to leave. I had to drag him out for the first few weeks!! As the other poster listed, my son did not come home with pink eye or anything like that. He did get a virus, but who knows how he got it, even though other kids had it too. Even with all that hand washing, some stuff is just unavoidable. He was out for a week with it - if anyone remembers that winter of December 2012, that virus ran over everyone in its path! I recommend this daycare/preschool to everyone I know that works or lives nearby. If I didn't live so far away now, my daughter would be going there right now! Thank you to Mr. Andrew, Miss Peg, Miss Amy, Miss Linda, and Miss Dana for all the love and care they gave my boy! Jonas misses each of you very much! Erin D.

In the infant room, each teacher is assigned to the same 4 infants daily. I was very impressed with this as each teacher learns their assigned infants, rather than the infants being passed around and cared for by different people every day. My daughter had horrible eczema as an infant and her teacher was EXTREMELY helpful in getting it under control by following the skin care regimen the pediatrician recommended. My daughter was always clean, happy and healthy. I never had to worry that my baby wasn't being cared for. The piece of mind alone was invaluable. My daughter is now getting ready to enter the school's pre-k program. She has learned so much throughout the years at Laurel tree and I am confident that she will be prepared, if not over prepared, for kindergarten next year. I am always impressed at the creative and hands-on ways the children are educated. I will forever be indebted to Laurel Tree Academy, their owners, teachers and other staff. Thank you for being my daughter's home away from home!

The pros and cons :…read more Pros: The outside facility looks bad but inside classrooms are sunny, nicely decorated with many toys/activity stations for kids. Nice staff, great phone communication. Less kids in each class compared to big chain daycares Reasonable price and summer fees No musty smells Teachers seem attentive, not on their phones like other daycares Cons: Not much shade in outdoor spaces Outdoor fence lack of security Only a few spaces parking, which is taken up by staff. Hot black concrete yard in tricycle area - dangerous if kid falls Rusty fencing and rusty basketball hoop Old facility - outside exterior, basement isn't inviting. 2nd floor classes - harder to leave in emergency No apps - no updates No camera to watch This daycare is definitely not bad, but they certainly can improve those aspects listed.

We started at The Heights School's new location at 4th and Highland in Fall 2022 when it first…read moreopened. This was one of the best decisions we have made for our son. Our son had previously attended another daycare, and we had lost all trust in childcare after multiple traumatic experiences. The care and attention that Genevieve and her teachers give to our son and our family quickly suppressed any stress that I had and they earned our trust. They got to know our son and what was important to our family for his care. We are working together to help him transition between rooms (infant to toddler), and they are doing what works for him instead of just following a written routine. They work with us as a team on a daily basis and really make us feel like family. The communication we receive from Genevieve and his teachers is top notch. Whether it be sending pictures and notes throughout the day to show how he's doing, or checking in when he is having a tough time, they are in constant communication with us. They respond quickly to any questions or comments we may have as well. They were able to catch an ear infection super early because they recognized a slight change in his behavior. They have also checked to make sure everything was okay when we were running late, as our morning drop off times are pretty consistent. Our son LOVES The Heights School. At drop off, he often will blow me kisses and wave goodbye as he goes right to playing. At pickup at his previous school, he would run right to me and cling to me. Now when I walk in, he runs and hugs me, then goes right back to playing. This may seem small, but shows that he feels comfortable too and doesn't want to leave. We are so pleased with the care that our son receives at The Heights School. We can't wait to see how much our son learns and grows throughout his time!

I've had wonderful experiences with everyone I've ever come across at this daycare school in person or over the Tadpole messages. They're so warm and involved and proactively care.

Having this village to help with things like potty training is truly priceless. Big hugs to Miss Mia for that :)
