Kay and Emily run a fantastic farm and they genuinely care about the well-being of their horses! Both of these women have a passion and drive to continually learn everything they can about the horse world. Anything from how to better the health of their horses to new dressage techniques. They also have experience in multiple disciplines of riding. One thing to note that many barns cannot say is that this farm is drama-FREE. Meadowlark has a laid-back and welcoming community. It is perfect for everyone of all ages and disciplines. Additionally, Meadowlark has a fantastic Horse Camp that's extremely popular - the spots fill up super fast! I have been riding with Emily for over 2 years now and it's amazing! She caters her teaching style to how her students learn best and has no problem answering questions. If you're on the fence about taking lessons or even bringing your child to Horse Camp. I encourage you to at least try it! I would recommend this farm to anyone! Give it a shot, you won't be disappointed!! :)

I approached Meadowlark interested in lessons.

They were really condescending and short, and said they couldn't assist. I am giving two stars as they said it politely, but it's just not a welcoming place to newcomers. It isn't a place you can go to learn as a newcomer.

My sons have been coming here for a couple of years and they love it! They have a huge variety of…read moreinteresting camps (e,g, circus, Lego, nerf, art, movie making and all kinds of instructional sports options) that run in the mornings. They also have pre and after camp care so they can be there all day. They have tons of activities including a climbing wall, putt-putt, water activities, field trips and sports. Your kids will come home tired and happy. The counsellors are great (many of them are teachers) and keep it fun for the kids. Sign up early in the spring as the more popular camps fill up fast. Well worth the cost ( which is similar to what we would pay a babysitter) because it keeps them active and engaged all day.

I went in with my family to check out the gym only to be greeted by a very dismissive front desk…read morestaff. The two staff members were not welcoming toward us and seemed bothered by even the simplest questions. Instead of taking a moment to explain things, they told us to "refer to the pamphlet," shutting down any attempt to clarify what we were looking for. For a place that's supposed to promote health and community, the lack of basic courtesy was really disappointing. First impressions matter, and this one made it clear that customer service is not a priority here. I won't be joining.

I realize that people make mistakes and I expected management to correct the mistake. They never did. I came in there to get my money back twice. I spoke with Jennifer who said that this would be taken care of and it wasn't. It's been two weeks now with no credit on my credit card. This is very disappointing. I just a wanted people to know that this establishment doesn't do business fairly. I can't believe that they won't refund me my money when I provided them proof. Just thought people should know. Thanks

Employee Perspective: I started at MAG as a gymnast and years later came back to coach recreational…read moregymnastics. Jessica & Leon conducted my interview and gave me a great overview of the facility, culture, and job duties. I shadowed under several coaches until I felt comfortable instructing on my own. The great thing about coaching was seeing the athletes progress through the classes and the interactions with their parents and family. Extra events such as physical abilities testing and the yearly exhibition help further showcase the athletes individual abilities. Kids Night Out is a fun night for students and even new children to the gym. Birthday parties and field trips allow children to try gymnastics in a less structured format. This facility is cleaned daily and has amazing coaches who truly care about their athletes safety and happiness! :)

This was absolutely the best child care experience we have had till date! I cannot say enough about…read morethe extremely kind and caring staff and the facilities at this location. We had started my son off in a different day care facility and he had a tough time adjusting - he would cry every day when we dropped him off. But when he started off at Childtime, the crying bouts stopped and in fact, he refused to come back home when it was time to pick him up! He really loved the teachers, staff and the kids here. We had to unfortunately move to a different state in a few months and leaving Childtime was the hardest thing we had to do. Its been over 5 months since we moved but my son (who is 3.5 years) still talks about his old school and his classmates from Childtime. The director (Ms Becky) and assistant director (Ms Nicole) were the best. They were extremely attentive and were very open to parent's needs. The teachers - Ms. Megan, Ms. Abby, Ms. Rachel and many others were extremely loving, kind and patient. The facilities were clean, with a large play ground and several toys. There were regular updates (with pics) from the teachers, several activities that kept your child intellectually and physically stimulated. Overall, it was a well rounded curriculum that made it a pleasant and enjoyable experience for the kids. We still love Childtime and really wish we could go back there.

We enrolled our son Mason (2, almost 3) at this preschool in august of 2014. The tour went great,…read morewe thought everything was going to fit our schedule.. I'm an EMT and my husband is a full time firefighter. They said they would work with us however needed. Our first clue should have been his behavior. They told us that most kids during thier first experience in daycare act that way, but I still had a bad feeling. I started to do more research, but they checked out online well. This was Masons first daycare experience and he also has attention problems. We clearly told them this and told them I was worried he might not adjust perfectly at first, but again, they told me he would be ok. By September, things were out of control. They kept telling us that he needed help, that he wouldn't sit ( again, at this point he had just turned 3) and a pile of other things. He was terrified to get out of the car in the morning, completely not normal, and was darkly emotional after my afternoon arrival. Eventually they said he MUST be potty trained, or he wouldn't be able to continue at that school. We abided by thier wishes, this was something we were trying anyway, and then they put him in a new classroom for 3 year olds. Things just got worse. They wouldn't greet him in the morning, or even get up off thier chairs, they complained of him every afternoon. On top of that, he was on a new medication to help with the attention difficulties. We THOUROGHLY explained that his Dr. said he might be a little drowsy the first two weeks. They manager of the school said, don't worry! We can work through it. A week later I get a call from his "teacher" stating Mason is interrupting class because he gets too tired at lunch and it's bad for the class. Also, he had escaped out the back half door, that had "lost" the childproof knob. By the way, the back door past the half gate leads out to a back field with a road beyond it and the door has no alram , if a three year old child was to open it. I expressed my concern about that many times and it was never fixed. We decided right then and there to pull him. I only wish we had sooner, who knows what he absorbed mentally there. We took Mason to a phyciatrist after this to make sure that we were in fact not over thinking thier actions. The Phyciatrist group in Livonia said it was not the first time they had heard the same senario unfortunately. They said we did the right thing. Please, please pay attention to your child's behavior if you do go with this school. Mason was bit over 7 times in just two months, there were times when he had fecal matter still on his rear, and they talked about all of these downfalls and things they didn't like about him right in front of him. Children need a loving, nurturing environment in these developing years. In our experience, they treat each child like a object, not family. We just hope this reaches someone out there and makes a difference.

Prior to starting here, they had been at another facility that provided lunches for kids and was slightly closer to home. At the other place we had some bad experiences. So I was exceedingly cautious about starting here. However, the staff made sure the boys felt welcomed from the very start (at our tour)! They handle potty words and discipline in an immediate fashion without humiliating the child. One other boy bit my kid while they were playing but because the policy for discipline is not to punish but remove the kids and then have them talk it over, the boys are actually "best friends" now they tell me. (At our prior school, there was a boy who did the same and the kids told me he was told he may "have to go back to the baby room since he was acting like a baby" and to this day they still talk about how that child "will never come to our parties") The communication is great too. The first week they provide a written document of what happened during the day, which is very helpful. The nap schedule is posted right outside the door so you can see if your kid slept when you pick them up. And they send home any uneaten food so you know what your kid ate. They also seem to genuinely care for the children, telling us stories about how cute they are or funny things they said. As my boys get ready for public school, they keep telling me that they don't want to leave their current school. I'm so happy I found this place, and would highly recommend it!

We personally know the owner and director and I honestly have nothing but wonderful things to say about them! My kids love going to daycare! We have experienced the infant, toddler, Little Sprouts, Young Explorer's and now Pre-School rooms and every room is fun, organized and well-run. Especially the infant/toddler rooms where the teachers have to keep track of feedings, naps, diaper changes, etc - everything is always documented and recorded. All of the teachers have been friendly, kind, helpful, and genuinely interested in my kids' learning and development. We would (and do) recommend Beginners Inn to anyone looking for high quality childcare in Canton!
