She looks forward to going to "school" everyday and has so much learning and playing. Her social skills have developed since we started her at this daycare 3 months months ago and kiddie Academy gets all the credit! She has learned so much and even tells me everything she learns everyday on the way home! I love that you can stay connected to the school and what's going on through the tadpole app & the watch me grow app! The teachers also take the time at pick up/drop off to talk to you and check in. They truly provide personalized care for your child! I couldn't be happier with the quality of education our daughter receives there and I would recommend Kiddie Academy to anyone looking for an affordable, compassionate, and nurturing place for their kids to grow and learn.

My son was enrolled here for 8 months. I enrolled him when he was 18 months. The location was…read moreconvenient and they had openings for his age group. Also my 13 year old niece attended this center when she was a toddler so I felt comfortable. Boy oh boy was I in for a huge disappointment! I don't even know where to begin. After the third month of enrollment, I started looking for a new facility to place my son. It took another 3 months to find somewhere I felt was suitable and we had to wait 2 more months until the fall semester before he could start there. Hence the 8 months stay at gateway. So this place has an incredible staff turn over. In the 8 months my son was there, literally 8 staff members left or quit or were fired. It was unbelievable! Every few weeks we would get an email informing us that miss so and so is no longer with the center and miss xyz will be starting soon. Sure enough as soon as miss xyz started the cycle would repeat. There was one teacher who was there in the mornings when I dropped my son off and she smelled like marijuana. It blew my mind! How the heck do you come to work at 7am with the stench of weed? The facility opens at 6:30 but is never staffed. I usually dropped my son off at 7am and there was only one teacher there. All the kids from all age groups had to stay with her until the other teachers wandered in between 8:30 and 9am. I'm pretty sure thats a state violation. I came to drop my son off one morning and the teacher was sitting in the classroom moisturizing her feet and taking great care to concentrate on her heels. I was grossed out and pissed. She did wash her hands afterwards but I don't feel that this should have been done at the table where the kids eat their meals. When you have a question for one of the teachers the only response you get is 'I don't know mom. I wasn't there this morning. I just came into the class 30 minutes ago.' At one point I just stopped asking. I brought bug spray to be used on my son. Of course it was NEVER applied. He came home every day with huge bumps from insect bites. The next day I would remind the teacher hey there is bug spray and a permission slip for my son, and l would pick him up again with you guessed it.....bug bites. So I started to drop him off with long pants only. If I did put shorts on him I would douse him with spray when I dropped him off. So they boast water play every Friday in the summer. The first official day, I dropped my son off with his swim clothes, and a change of clothes and his shoes in a bag. I come to pick him up early (thank god) because he has an appointment and he's in the class barefoot. Ok so I'm livid. The teacher said to me 'you didn't send a change of clothes or shoes for him.' I said yes. I gave it to the teacher this morning when I dropped him off. And she said " Well I don't start till 9 so I don't know." Ok that's besides the point. If you think I didn't bring a change of clothes and shoes why on earth didn't you call me and say hey mom we need shoes for your baby? Are you that dense? All the while the bag with my son's clothes and shoes were sitting on his cubby! So my sons last day was on Fri August 24th. I go back to gateway on Monday the 27th to pick up the rest of his belongings and the expensive SSS bug spray that they never bothered using on him. The spray is no where to be found. Only the permission slip and bag that held the spray are in the bin. One teacher asks another if she's seen the spray and she replies "its in my bag." I'm thinking it's in a bag with other odds and ends with class room stuff. Well just when I thought this place and the staff couldn't get lower the teacher comes and retrieves the spray from her purse. She said to me she had to put it up or they would throw it out. I take the bottle and it's pretty much empty. I'm wondering why because the spray was never used on my son. I was so pissed and disgusted. When does this place hit bottom? I could go on and on about this place with all the stories I heard from other parents but I guess it wouldn't make a difference. I'm so glad my son is out of there. Today was his fourth day at his new daycare and he's doing so well. If I could give any advice or would be to stay away from gateway.

I'm so upset with how I was done here. My daughter used to go here and it was a wonderful…read moreexperience for her... however for my son, it was a different story. Now the teachers are very caring but the Lady in charge, Lauren doesn't know how to communicate! My son is 1 year and 4 months. Has never been in child care before. So naturally he cried a lot. My son was only there 2 weeks and 1 day before we were unenrolled by Lauren with no notice! Again, I was given zero notice I needed to find new childcare for him. I was called to pick him up because "he has not stopped crying all day" so I left work to get him. I get it, it's overwhelming to deal with continued crying however it's their job. I went to get him to relieve him and the teacher. When I got there to pick him up Lauren asked if my husband and I had considered other child care options. This yesterday (Thursday). She said let me go get his things, in which I responded "is he not coming back tomorrow?" (It's Friday my husband and I both work full time) she responds "I'm going to say no." How do you deny my child coming because he cries? I got home to see she had packed everything of his like he wasn't coming back. I noticed I didn't have the clothes in the bag that he was sent to school in. I went to message them via the Procare app. Only to find the app say I didn't have a child enrolled there! Why did I find out via app that we are no longer enrolled???? I was very polite to them even though I was annoyed. I went back to the center to collect his clothes. Lauren met me at the door as if I was not allowed into the school. I never raised my voice or caused a scene. I had to ask her to help me understand were we no longer enrolled here? She finally said "it's not working for him here." I asked "why didn't you just say that? So now I don't have child care and no time to find any." Lauren then replies "well I guess he can come here tomorrow to give you time to find something." Excuse me ma'am how does that give me time to find childcare? I'm supposed to call out of work to rush and have 1 day ( it's Friday and daycare is closed on the weekend) to find a place for him? If I have to give you a notice to remove my child from your center I expect the same in return. I should be given a week to find something else if she felt it wasn't working. Baby's cry I'm sorry my son didn't adjust in 2 weeks and that 1 Monday. (He was picked up Tuesday because he was sick and they made us keep him home Wednesday which I understand then was picked up early on their day when this happened). After speaking with other daycares they were all floored this happened. Saying they give 1-2 year olds at least a month of adjustment time before they think it may not work out. My son wasn't even given that. If he was sent home sick (which he was taken and cleared by the doctor that same day) then maybe he just still didn't feel well and not an excuse to unenrolled us. How is this fair to working parents? We pay our tuition ahead and never gave any problems. It would be different if he had behavioral problems with biting and hitting etc. however to unenroll a child because they cry with zero notice is unacceptable! DO BETTER!!! Lauren should not be head of anything. If you are going to run things, learn how to communicate and use your words. I should have had to find out on the app and go back to know my son didn't have care. I hate this happened because again when my daughter went here we loved this place. I truly feel he wasn't given the chance to fully adjust. Had this continued over a month as a mother I would had made that decision on my own that it's not the place for him without them even saying anything. I don't want my kid unhappy, and I don't want the teachers to be unhappy and stressed. This place is good for older children but I will never ever bring my child there again. I hope the pastor rethinks on who should be running that place because Lauren is not the one to be doing it.
