My family member had her son here…read more the staff treated her very ignorantly and it made her worry about what kind of people she was entrusting with her little tiny two year old. Everything that can be observed and thought upon , where a person could be able to draw upon their own conclusions- pertaining to the style in which he's dressed- was questioned ...where she'd have to explain herself incessantly- as if they only bother her to get her(mom) to educate THEM on what is already the most obvious . Especially in this type of business, you want the best for your precious baby , to have some sort of caregiver question or doubt the mother's decision making (when it comes to the baby) is beyond comprehension these people act like they don't know what they're doing for you , to have to sit there and explain it !!! Do you really want someone that deft looking after your BABY!!!! No way and for them to critique the baby eating style, and sit there , and put any type of judgement over a little tiny baby being able to feed himself is so outrageous !!!!. Bad vibes all around !!! what are they thinking about your child, when you're paying them to do a job ? for them to sit there and put negativity towards someone so small and innocent just starting out in life . Horrendous !!!!! Avoid this place and find an alternative!!! For safety and spiritual reasons both . Go somewhere else !

Our kids went here and it was great! We unfortunately had to move out of town and our new daycare…read moredoes not compare. The place is very clean, has a good learning program, and has the camera system where you can peek in on your kids throughout the day. Best part is that if there's ever an issue, the owner, Ms. Lisa, will personally take care of it. She's very down to earth and understanding. We still feel like we can call/text her even in the evenings. I miss this place. I especially love the cute homemade presents we get from the kids for holidays and the little parties they put on. The Easter bunny and Santa comes to visit and they take Fall and Spring pictures. Also, when our kids left, they made a going away binder full of cute pictures throughout the years. It was so cute that I cried!

This daycare is so attentive. They are clean! Shoes off at the door! I love that! They actually love the children and it shows. There's always something for kids and parents to interact. There are curriculums even for the infants so they're always learning. Themed days that I always look forward to. I can call or show up as much as I'd like without feeling like a bother. They have a nice little cozy breastfeeding room for me to use when I come. Playgrounds for the teeny tots on up to the 4 year olds. Although, we don't have access to them all the time (I'd like to), there are cameras everywhere so if you need to see something you can. The app they use makes communication easy throughout the day. When they have the time, I look forward to the random pictures I sometimes get of my little one. I also love how diverse it is here! I was so hesitant and nervous about sending my baby to daycare because of all the horror stories we hear, and obviously nobody loves your baby like you do BUT carousel is a close second. I'd choose them over and over again.

My son started today, they were able to get us in immediately as we just toured and fell in love with Children's Carousel yesterday. Finally our search is over. They have everything we were searching for. The largest playgrounds and plenty of time to play, giant windows that actually face outside, friendly children that said hello to my son on his first day. That was a biggie because my son actually came over to hug and kiss my goodbye, he was comfortable enough for me to leave without a scene! You have to your this school to see everything I've mentioned and more!

The staff is amazing and help with development since some of us mom's have to work. My children have both learned their alphabet, colors, shapes etc. thanks to the support of the staff.

And what I love most about it is how much the owners our involved making sure everything runs as it should. There are cameras which Ms. Neila monitors like a hawk. Perfect daycare to make any parent feel at ease. I cried the first day my first child started, however after meeting these people I knew I made the right decision for my children. Love the staff, love kelly and her husband and ms Neila

Anytime that I have logged in to see what the class is doing, the teachers are working with all the kids on learning their numbers, colors, letters, etc. My daughter is going to be 2 soon and I am IMPRESSED with how much she has learned in such a short period of time!! One of the managers Jessica is a phenomenal person. I was very nervous since this was my daughters 1st time in daycare; she has always answered my calls & has even called me to tell me how she is doing. I recommend this learning center to anyone that may be looking to send their child somewhere.

Katie has always kept me updated on her and made sure she was well taken care of. She will soon be going with ms. Hannah who watches the one year olds. she is so sweet and you can tell how much she enjoys her job and how much love she has for these babies! This daycare also does pictures regularly with professional photographers which I appreciate so much with being a single mother and not having the time go out and get them done myself. All of the teachers work with the children as well, and make holidays special for them! My kids love it here!

The staff members are so welcoming every single morning, the school is super clean, and between learning, yoga, and soccer classes, my kids cry when I pick them up! We couldn't be happier.

This is the first "daycare" my child has ever been to in his life and he started at 2 and a half…read more I've been able to keep him home with me since he was a newborn since I work remotely and have had family help throughout my work days. But now that he's getting older, he needs more stimulation and more activities and more interaction than just being at home with family. So I decided to put him here, part-time. He goes here two days a week And this child development center has been a game changer for him. His speech is getting better, he's learning new words and phrases, and he loves all of the activities and playtime that is scheduled every day that he gets. This place is a little pricey, as it is almost $900 for two days a week, but I can walk there from my house, which is very convenient and he's not even a mile away from me while I'm working, which is important to me. So if there's an emergency, any flooding anything that would make me nervous about him being away from me, I can literally get to him very quickly and pick him up. This place is very much recommended as they are very secure, there is a code you must enter to open the door and they have armed police officers on the property for pick up and drop off. The teachers are very sweet and all of the administrative staff seem to know every child and parent by name. Highly recommended if you are willing to pay for the extra amenities. Oh, and I almost forgot, one of the best things that they have is an actual app where they send a push notifications when their diaper is changed, when they eat and what they eat, and when they take a nap. So you're able to see what your child is doing while you're away.!! And at the end of the day, they give you a detailed report of what activities they did and how they contribute to their developmental progress AND they add pictures of your child doing the activity!!

The staff here was great - they are very up to date in the technology they use. Check-in is quick and easy via computer at the front door, security is tight - there are security officers at the entrance to the parking lot and entering the facility required a code entered into a keypad. The classrooms are well kept up, clean and picked up at the end of each day. I found the teachers to be warm, excited to see the children, and willing to give extra attention when needed. One of the things I really liked was the app they used to post updates throughout the day - meals, diapers, naps and pictures were posted to keep you updated on what your child was doing every day as well as provide drop-off and pick up alerts. In her 6 months there her vocabulary grew immensely, she started learning letters, counting, colors and animals. I felt they were teaching her and not just watching her while I worked.

They are ALL about the children. In addition, Ms. Barbara is a true gem. My daughter started coming when she was 10 weeks, and I was beyond nervous. After meeting Ms. Anissa, Ms. Amanda, and Ms. Olga, I knew that this was was the right place. They were the first people to get her to smile. My daughter would light up when she saw them. Honestly, I would light up too. These women are magical. When she moved to infant room 2, I was nervous again, but the ladies transitioned baby girl slowly. Ms. Shelby, Ms. Erica, and Ms. Noty ensure that my baby girl is happy and safe. Every time I pick her up, she seems like she is having the time of her life. When it was time to start giving her solid food, everyone was on- board with giving her a vegetarian diet. They ensure that she is getting what she needs. I love the staff to infant ratio. I adore the little play area. I especially like the fact that she has her own little bed to nap in. If you are looking for a place that your child will love to come to, then this is the place. Take a tour!

This daycare is amazing. Hands down the best childcare in Kenner. I began reflecting this week as…read moremy daughter was turning 1 about the past year. She began at Prime Steps at only 8 weeks old. Between Ms. Aisha and Ms. Olga I was quickly put at ease. They loving cared for my sweet Sydney like she was their own. Over the year I have witnessed a special community that is more of a family where great teaching is taking place. I love seeing older children almost daily show parents evidence of learning. Proudly handing their Moms and Dads work and art projects. Then through the cafeteria where you can still smell the balanced hot lunch. There is also always someone cleaning. I love how at breakfast the various teachers are helping little ones take pride in establishing healthy habits. Then through the play yard to the infant rooms. There I get a complete report of Sydney day and schedule. Here Ms. Maria, Ms. Norma or Ms. Shelly always have some great progress to inform me. From all on the managers, owners and employees I could not be happier. Thank you for giving my girl the best foundation.
