I wanted to take some time to provide a thoughtful review on this program as I pulled my child for…read morehis own safety. I want to preface this with: I am a member of Eastlake Church. The church is fantastic, and the kids program there for during church services is GREAT and this review is ONLY pertaining to the Eastlake Children's Center preschool which is run M-F. I was very eager to enroll my son in this program. I had heard so many amazing things about this program and it was an added bonus that we love our church. I even provided paperwork to this program when my son was approximately 1 year old (they don't take kids until they are 2 but I wanted to ensure we were not waitlisted as I had read that they were such a popular program). My son finally was enrolled this July for the 2024-25 school year. When he started he was fully potty trained. As school started it was clear there was some new school year kinks needing to be worked out regarding organization and teachers. I tried to remain positive and provide grace when a new teacher I had never met would be giving me my child without an ID check. My son immediately had potty accidents. More than when he started training. I thought this was simply because there are no potty's in the classrooms as typical 2 year rooms have at most programs. Assuming it's just a distance to potty adjustment we proceeded on. However, my son started hitting himself and yelling at himself in the potty when he was home saying "YOU GO POTTY IN TOILET NOT POTTY IN PANTS!" then would hit his leg. He's never behaved in this way. It broke my heart. I spoke to Ms. Jeanette at the front about how I think the teachers may be yelling at him and stressing him out about the bathroom here, and it's affecting us at home. They started making me put pullups on him (which we have NEVER done). The accidents never got better. I could never talk to his teacher because his main teacher was only there from 830-12 with him. Because he was a full time kid, I would be picking him up from different random teachers all the time. Some wouldn't even know which kid was mine when I said his name even thought he had been at the school a month at this point. About 2 weeks into school I picked my son up (again from a random teacher I've never met the 2 weeks prior to this) and he had a huge scrape on his forehead, as if he had fallen head first on cement. My son has been in a daycare setting since he was a baby, so I am aware that I should be getting an "ouch report" anytime there is an injury of a child, even if they are unsure how it happened. Once they see an injury, they need to report when that injury was noticed. At his last daycare I would also get a phone call for any head injuries. I got nothing here. However, it's only the 2nd week of school and I just let it go and chalked it up to the new school year situation. New teachers etc. About a week and a half later I picked my son up and he had a scrape on his nose that was bloody and thick. I didn't say anything to the teacher at pick up because when I gave the name of my child I had to point at which child he was for her to know who to give me. (again terrible security and no ID was checked). If she doesn't know my kid by his name, she def doesn't know what happened to his nose. No ouch report. Since I was already waiting to hear back from the director via email regarding my request to meet with her, I decided I would bring it up then. Then, the very next day my son had yet a THIRD scratch on his face with no ouch report. As I walked out I stopped to talk to Ms. Jeanette (I think she's the assistant director?) and I told her this is the 3rd time in 2 weeks my son has bloody marks/scratches on his face with no ouch report. All she said was "yeah you should have an ouch report" and that was it. I was hoping for "well let's contact his teacher and figure out what's happening" or "maybe we can ask the teachers to see if they set it somewhere besides his cubby" or "I will talk to the teachers and figure out what's going on" but she didn't seem to care at all. She took no worry to this. Again, I've had my son in daycare settings for a while, so I am not one of those overly paranoid parents, but the lack of concern for my son's safety, especially regarding facial injuries frequently over a short period was alarming. I immediately pulled him from the program, and reported them to state licensing. My son had been in school there only 1 month. During the time I enrolled him officially in February 2024 until the day I pulled him from the program there were THREE licensing violations- one of which was a teacher physically abusing children and another was a teacher leaving a child alone on the playground! This program used to be the best around. There was a change in the leadership of the preschool a couple years back, and needless to say the program is NOT what it used to be. My husband said that most times he picked our son u

This is an incredible place filled with love & everything else a baby or kid needs to grow. They are always doing lots of crafts, listening to music, taking consistent naps, eating healthy food and having tons of FUN! 1 of my favorite things about Little Steps is their food program. They eat healthy Every Day! Ramon does a great job planning & executing a healthy menu. Alexandra would always ask me for healthy food like apples, oranges, bananas, chicken soup, salad & all kinds of other foods I thought kids would not eat. Thank you everyone at Little Steps for caring so much about Alexandra. Thank you for helping her grow from a little baby into a little lady. Thank you for teaching her spanish.

Raising Alexandra bilingual was most important to me bc of the many benefits & how it is scientifically known to make any kid smarter) Thank you for feeding her healthy food every day. Thank you for loving her no matter what she did. Thank you for teaching her many lessons like how to share, be kind to others, pray & be respectful.

The women who run the daycare are truly amazing. They treat each child like their own, with so much love, care, and attention.

They keep you very up to date with everything going on with your child, send pics of activities with all the kids together, summer camp fun, Christmas gift exchange, etc. While we're so sad to say goodbye as he moves on to preschool, we're also incredibly grateful for the wonderful foundation they gave him. I would highly recommend Gloria's Daycare to any family looking for a safe, loving, and enriching environment for their little ones. Thank you for everything and for loving my boy!

Mrs. Christian and her staff are experts at keeping your child safe, mentally stimulated, and engaged. Our child's enthusiasm for attending school every day speaks volumes about the positive environment they've created. Ms. Rayna, Landeros, and Luna are patient, caring, and truly dedicated to the children's development and has developed a strong and trusting bond with my child.

Our child is excited about learning about the morals and values of Spectrum preschool and continues to practice good character this facility teaches. He has excelled academically through constant mental stimulation, and positive reinforcement. Beyond academics, this preschool places a strong emphasis on social-emotional growth. Our child has made great strides in developing social skills, learning to share, cooperate with others, and navigate interactions with peers in a positive way. He has developed appropriate behavior norms, and a good sense of independence and self-worth. Communication with my wife and I is excellent as we are regularly updated with his progress and current events. We have developed a partnership with the common goal of raising our child in a positive environment. Spectrum Preschool is a one of the best ways to set up a solid foundation for your child and we highly recommend this preschool to any parent seeking a safe, nurturing, and truly enriching early childhood experience for their child.

It doesn't rain that much here to invest in a tv for only that purpose. Not to mention no tv is recommended for kids until 18 months of age. My kid watches s Rachael so I can get ready on the morning but I don't pay for daycare for them to put them in front of a tv. There's no cameras and I would bet they have those kids in front of tv more often than they say. Additionally they put the infants in the same room as walking kids that are up to 20 months old. No where else does this. It's not safe. Speaking of safety- when you first pull up You see the gate to the playground and all the kids on the playground. The infant door is just inside the gate, forest door on the left. To get into the playground all she did was reach to the top of the gate to move the plastic zip ties and then opened the gate. It wasn't locked. The classroom with infants, not locked. The classroom appeared to have one entry and exit total - to that unlocked gate. Any adult could get in there. Not a secure placement at all. They need to up security. I hope there is never a shooter, but of elementary schools are getting hit we need to be prepared and this place is far from prepared.
