We were called this spring about the waiting list after we left our number 2 years ago. I was so…read moresurprised they actually still had our info and called, that in itself showed me they were very organized. We counted down the months for my sons first day and now a month into it, I can say already I understand the reason for that waitlist. My son is happy going in everyday and when o pick-him up. Everyone in the staff is personable, I get daily updates, and he's proud to show me his daily paper with what he colored. The sheet also tells me what they covered for stories, what the age, and he's even napping again. I can use the information on the sheet to talk to him about his day and I'm just mind blown at how much more responsive he is since he started. I'm so happy we got in! They are fantastic

So far, we are happy with Promise Care. Although they lack some of the modern amenities that our…read moreprevious preschool had (I really miss getting those Brightwheel updates!), they are handling Covid with grace and my child feels safe and cared for and that is what matters the most. Unfortunately due to Covid, parents still aren't allowed inside. I still got a chance to see the classroom via a virtual tour and meet his teacher on a few occasions and she is incredibly sweet. My son talks about all of his friends every night, loves the playground, and brings home some cute art projects! He has matured so much just in the 3 months that he's been there, and he quickly stopped crying at drop off because he enjoys his school so much. Negatives would be the lack of an app, not being able to go inside yet, and having to write a check to pay. But, where they lack in modern amenities, they more than make up for it in care and tuition. This is the best priced tuition in the west end for an all day program. I am so thankful that we were able to get in off the waiting list after a 2 year wait and that my daughter will be able to attend next year. We plan to keep both children here until they age out. Thankfully, they pick up from our zoned elementary school so we are set in terms of childcare. It was a rough road to get here - the childcare situation in Richmond is absolutely horrible - but we are here and so thankful!

Teachers in the infant room some of them have long nails and one of them is often coughing and…read moreothers actually said out loud that they are tried when I drop my kid in the morning (makes worry that how they can take care of babies though out the day). The final straw for me is that I know for a fact my baby was miserable during the time she was there. She was 4mo so very often being strapped into a chair and she will get anxious and cry and because nobody will pick her up therefore she will start scratch her face or legs until see blood. I am very anger and sad to see all new marks on her on a daily basis that I transferred her to other daycare in a very short amount of time.

I have never been more concerned for the safety and wellbeing of the children at this facility…read more There is favoritism among the children, unprofessional staff, low staff but they have their "Enroll now" sign up and putting more stress on the staff by maxing out their capacity. They have a "cut-off" time to check in at 9am, they will not let you enter the classroom past this time. The food is garbage, oatmeal every day, no utensils for the older kids. The leaders don't care about your children, they just want your money. They try to find ways to send the children home early (based off a couple other parents I have spoken to). One of the staff members are very aggressive physically with the "more difficult" kids and when they don't listen or are having a hard time. I absolutely want you to be aware of this before considering enrollment

Gabby returned and said he hadn't eaten much today and wasn't feeling good. She seemed clueless as to what to do about my child not feeling good. She said he was laying on the table so she moved him to the floor where it was more comfortable. No one contacted me. The other teacher took his temperature as I was holding him and it was 102.4. After I asked Gabby why no one contacted me she said she had told the director earlier that my son wasn't feeling good. The other teacher said he was busy and forgot. It is not a good facility. Don't send your child here if you want good care. They probably don't get paid much and don't care about the children. I had read one bad review but there were so many good ones. I just read the bad review again and it is more accurate than I thought. They do cover up things. The director tried to call me today and left a voice mail and denied anything that happened and tried to cover it up. This place is unsafe and weird things are happening to these poor children.

Our Experience at Celebree School…read more Our experience at Celebree School has been excellent. We are very happy with the school, the teachers, and especially with the progress we have seen in both of our daughters. I would especially like to recognize Ms. Sohina Biswas, who has been teaching my daughter Chloe. Chloe started at the school only a few months ago, and when she started, she did not know how to write her own name, recognize the alphabet, or identify numbers. Now, as she gets ready to move on to preschool, she has learned all of these skills. We are incredibly happy and grateful for everything Ms. Sohina has done for her. Chloe absolutely loves her! I also want to thank Ms. Sarita, who has been wonderful with Chloe as well. We truly appreciate the patience, kindness, and dedication of her teachers. My younger daughter is 1 year and 5 months old, and we have also seen so much progress in her development. She has become very communicative and is learning new words and expressions every day. She says "thank you," "you're welcome," and "bless you" when someone sneezes, and she can already count to two. It is so rewarding to see how much she is learning and developing. We also had a wonderful experience with Ms. Vivian. Having her as my daughter's teacher was truly wonderful, and we are very grateful for all the care and love she gave her. Overall, we really love Celebree School and are very happy with the education and care our daughters receive. We can clearly see how much they are learning and growing, and we feel very grateful to have such wonderful teachers caring for our children.

Update: Initially, I was hopeful my report to the Department of Social Services would be…read moresufficient, but unfortunately, the "investigation" let me down. I reported Celebree School of Henrico for the following violations: Special Care Provisions, Emergencies, and Staffing and Supervision. On August 18, 2025, I received the daily report for my daughter, who was exclusively breastfed, which reported she was offered and took 4oz of formula. Celebree's response was nonchalant, and that it was entered incorrectly. The investigator agreed, even though she and I both uncovered that they had gone back into my daughter's report and changed days and weeks of data regarding feeding. Given this incident and the previous, recent violation in February 2025, where staff mistakenly fed a child another child's breastmilk, I find that hard to believe. Regarding the Staffing and Supervision violation, oftentimes, my daughter's teacher(s) had not arrived when she was dropped off, and she would have to go to the other infant room, meaning the 1:4 ratio was exceeded. We'd drop off a teary-eyed girl and pick up a hungry, sad, and sleepy girl. As new parents, we wrongly assumed that it was normal or that there would be an adjustment period. As time passed, it became clear her basic needs were not being met. My biggest regret, one I feel guilty to this day, was not unenrolling sooner. My hope in sharing this new information with other parents is simply that how you interpret and what you do with it is ultimately up to you. Trusting someone and someplace with your child is not easy, and I wish all parents nothing but the best care. (End)
