The Goddard School is in its own class of amazingness. You definitely get above what you pay for…read more(while the prices are higher than your average daycare, it is well worth it). Do not let the price make your final answer. Perks of Goddard: - Every teacher has a college degree - Your child will be in or around six months of his age, like my daughter is in a 3 - 3 1/2 room and she is almost 3 1/2. This is a huge factor to consider, not only will your child be learning everything they should at this milestone, they will be with there peers in the same age group all day long, you don't get this at any other childcare facility much less public school system setting. This is where your child will grow and thrive because they aren't stuck in a group of kids that range from a few months old to 5. - Structure - i can't say enough about how structure makes a huge attitude adjustment and just a good flow for your kiddo. Having a daily schedule and it being the same is a great routine for anyone even if your 30 or 80! - Nutrition - they have a monthly planner you can get and it will let you know exactly what your kid is eating daily. - Activities - there is a weekly themed activity. I remember one in particular such as learning about fire and what not, and they actually had a firetruck come out for a day for the kiddos to see. - Therapies - If your child has any sort of therapies that need addressed, you can have your own therapist come in at anytime and provide therapy for your child, they usually have a space that they can go to to provide care. These are just what I can think of at the moment! This place is beyond amazing...if you even just tour it you will not want to go anywhere else. If its even within or more than $100 of your budgeted amount...you should cut off a luxury item and give your kid some top notch care. Kuddos to Goddard...I hope I can keep my job long enough to keep my toddler in here until she graduates and goes to kindegarten.

Aowyn has been going to Goddard on and off now for the last 3 years and she always seems to develope awesome new skills and such while attending there. There are so many good things I have to say about this school, and oh yes I will go on, But if i miss anything I am truley sorry! lets start with the falcutly, they ROCK!, every morning they are always happy to see us and aowyn is just as excited to see them. I swear during interviews, morning person, must be a requirment! Always friendly and always there to help in anyway possible!! The school is very clean and rooms are always in order. somehow even rooms occupied with kids and the kids playing there isn't a mess to be found! I need to figure out how they do it! the playground and area to play outside seems just like the perfect amount of space and equipment! nothing cluttered, and there is ample amount of room to get the kids stretch out there legs. The price is very affordable, It can seem on the high end, but these are people who actually TEACH your child things, not just have them in their home for the day. I can't put a price on how my little girl is becoming so smart and the hours are awesome, and always open! :)

Parents Beware! My son attended La Petite for 18 months. The center has a flea infestation, which…read morethey reported to the St. Clair Co. Health Dept.( I called them myself) on 8/10. Parents received a letter on 8/13 stating the center would not be treated until the night of the 14th. They are still watching kids though; wouldn't want to miss out on money. They'll be open a week before treating the problem while still caring for kids!! Fortunately, my son is staying with family; I feel for those parents without any other options. My son had dried blood on his legs when I picked him up a month ago. No one noticed or cleaned him up. Fortunately, the blood was his. He also had 2 separate days when he had dried poop on the back of his shirt. Again, no one noticed or cleaned it up. I reported it to the teacher and assistant director, but they were pretty nonchalant about it even after I pointed out the potential health risk and exposure. The staff turnover is huge-teachers and the director. The director that was fired (parents were never told why BTW) is still listed on their website, and they've been unable to retain a director since. The door code changes frequently due to parents, teachers, and/or former teachers making a scene. The police were allegedly called the last time. The only other review is from an employee. For $200 a week for a 3 year old, you'd think they could at least keep blood, poop, and fleas off of the kids. I'm so glad my son is done with this place!!!

We are pretty sure that my infant son was placed in a chair from the minute we got there till he was picked up. Kids were always crying when I went in there, and I witnessed one child on his stomach in a swing. We can not prove it, but we are confident that the teacher that ran the three year old room spanked my child. He has never been sparked, or threatened with spanking, and he acted out, and named the teacher that spanned him. He said that she spanked him for having an accident in his pants. The management showed no interest in solving our complaint. Do not send your kids here!

The…read moreteachers are very kind and friendly and make me feel completely comfortable leaving my kids there full time. My daughter isn't even four yet and knows all of her letters, can write her name and several other words, and can count to 20. She loves going to school and receives a great mixture of playtime, art time, and learning. They even helped a lot with potty training 1.5-2 year olds. I am much happier here than I was with an in home provider. This place isn't incredibly cheap, but they do accommodate hours from 630-6, so when you break it down for the number of hours of care, it is a much better deal than I had with an in home daycare provider. Plus they provide breakfast, lunch, and snacks. They also give you a week of vacation to use after a year and you don't have to pay vacation for the employees.

Sending my children to My Little School has been one of the best decisions for my children I could have made. I love all of the staff and my children have been loved and cared for like their own. I would not send my children to any other center. The owner is so involved and makes sure that every family is treated with respect. One of the best things about My Little School is the great staff and level of parent-teacher communication. My children have learned so much here. I would refer anyone here and I can proudly say that my children are at the best daycare around. Also, the cleanliness is unmatched. I have nothing negative to say. Great daycare, great staff, loving owner.

Especially for the price. My son just turned 3 today, and is finishing up in the "Twos" room at MLS. My wife and I first found this place when she was going back to work after our son had turned one. We immediately loved the location and the staff. I have experienced nothing but the height of politeness and friendliness from everyone who's worked there over the past two years. The building is bright and beautiful, and ALWAYS exceptionally clean, and has a great layout. Ms. Kim and her staff prepare in-house Breakfast and Lunch daily, and the kids get a really great variety of food. I am confident every morning that my son is safe and is being well-cared for. Even those mornings when he's throwing a screaming fit and doesn't want to get in or out of the car, when he gets to school, for him it's a safe calm space, and he settles down with relative quickness at the hands of any of the wonderful teachers. Do yourself a favor and call Ms. Kim and enroll your littles now! Feel free to personally send me a FB message if you have any questions about my experience.

They watch very little TV/movies. They will take both cloth diapers and breast milk. Facility is clean & well maintained.

Pricing is very competitive and reasonable.
