Not only have our four (4) children walked through its doors and graduated, they started school with confidence and the tools necessary to thrive. Their curriculum, incredible educators, the incomparable center director; Dawn, are all unmatched! Dawn along with the entire Kindercare staff are warm and extremely welcoming. They become the constant and reassurance we need with the care of our children. Patience, guidance, empathy, respect, dedication and communication are among many of the amazing qualities this center offers. I can go on and on but I'll end my appreciation review by simply saying, if you place your child in KinderCare Miami Lakes it will be the best decision you ever make. We're eternally grateful!

I am so thankful to Dawn and her entire team for creating such a loving and nurturing environment full of playing, fun and learning. I highly recommend this daycare to all. My daughter started when she was 4 months old. Although I was nervous in the beginning, those feelings quickly went away. My daughter has always been greeted with love from all including the director, teachers, cleaning and cooking staff. She continues to thrive from their extra programs such as music, phonics and she will soon join the cooking class. Thank you KinderCare Miami Lakes, Dawn and the entire team, for being apart of our family, and our daughters growth.

The staff is amazing and the school follows the Montesorri method perfectly. I couldn't recommend it more! Don't even think twice, it'll be the best investment for your childs education. My favorite part of the elementary class, is kids don't get busy work or "homework" sent home and actually learn what they need to in class. My son has excelled tremendously since switching over from a catholic school both academically and spiritually. Before eating and before sleeping he learned to say his prayers thanks to the school and loves hearing bible stories he learned about in class. My little one in the toddlers class has grown so much this year and even was helped when it came the time to potty train him. I also love the app that comminucates with the parents and keeps you updated with their day and you receive pictures as well! I'm pleased and thankful for this wonderful school!

I had to leave a review due to Principals Day and there's no other woman nor person I'd want my kids to look up to as a leader in a Catholic community. Ms. Picazo is the definition of a true Catholic. She is a driving force in showing what it means to do what Jesus would do. If I had to choose what school to send my little kiddos to all over again, I wouldn't hesitate to pick OLL. Go Cheetahs!

We have sent two of our kids to OLL & our experience with Barbara Picazo has been disappointing. If…read moreyou are raising a child of color - as long as she is the principal, this is not the school for you. The first place your child will be singled out and experience discrimination is at school by Barbara Picazo. She has consistently demonstrated this behavior, she has biases and preferences towards students and she will target young boys of color. Considering the current state of the world, one would think that a catholic school and archdiocese would hire faculty that create a safe space for our children. It's been quite the opposite with BarbaraPicazo. Also - did anyone else notice that she is the person with the most complaints on these reviews? This pattern speaks for itself. What a shame!

This place has been the worst experience I have had with a daycare. This places' teachers DO NOT…read morecare about your kid. My kid came every day with scratches from there and they would never write a report about him. It was always him who hit first which was not valid. On top of this, their teachers spend most of their time scrolling through social media most commonly Facebook and Instagram, and I guarantee you that as soon as a parent walks into the room they act like they pay the most attention to your child. How do I know this you may ask? I had a second child attending this place who often would walk into the different rooms and see this behavior from mostly all the teachers except a select few. Or if they're not on a social networking site I can guarantee they are talking crap about your child. Most important of all they act a certain way with you and another with your child especially if he or she has special needs. My child who attended has special needs but they could care less he was treated badly and with no respect for his condition whatsoever. Also, let me tell you this place has a serious case of cross-contamination. They let your child's water/milk bottle touch other children's mouths. They also treat you very fake with the biggest smile and everything and your child is over on the corner crying and hurt at least that is what happened in my situation. Overall this place is not worth your child going to if you worry about any of these problems above. __________________________________________________________________________ Este lugar ha sido la peor experiencia que he tenido con una guardería. Los maestros de este lugar NO se preocupan por su hijo. Mi hijo venía todos los días con rasguños de allí y nunca escribirían un informe sobre él. Siempre era él quien golpeaba primero, lo que no era válido. Además de esto, sus maestros pasan la mayor parte de su tiempo desplazándose por las redes sociales, más comúnmente Facebook e Instagram, y les garantizo que tan pronto como un padre entra en la habitación, actúan como si le prestaran más atención a su hijo. ¿Cómo sé esto que usted pregunta? Tuve un segundo hijo que asistía a este lugar que a menudo entraba a las diferentes salas y veía este comportamiento en la mayoría de los maestros, excepto en unos pocos seleccionados. O si no están en un sitio de redes sociales, puedo garantizar que están hablando tonterías sobre su hijo. Lo más importante es que actúan de una manera contigo y de otra con tu hijo, especialmente si tiene necesidades especiales. Mi hijo que asistió tiene necesidades especiales, pero no les importó que lo trataran mal y sin ningún respeto por su condición. Además, déjame decirte que este lugar tiene un caso grave de contaminación cruzada. Permiten que la botella de agua/leche de su hijo toque la boca de otros niños. También te tratan muy fingido con la sonrisa más grande y todo y tu hijo está en la esquina llorando y lastimado al menos eso es lo que pasó en mi situación. En general, no vale la pena que su hijo vaya a este lugar si le preocupa alguno de estos problemas anteriores.

I visited this establishment today hoping I would finally find the right school for my 1 year old…read more I was skeptical once I pulled up but I said, let's give it a try. I must say...I was impressed. Maria at the front desk was so nice, professional, and took her time giving me a tour of the school and explaining everything. I didn't feel rushed or didn't get the vibe that person didn't want to be there. The kids looked so happy! The facility was impeccable. It smelled great and all the teachers were interacting with the kids. I will be enrolling my little one in the next couple of days! The down part of it is that it's in PSN and traffic is insane in this area but I really don't care. I am willing to sit in that traffic and be at peace knowing my baby is in good hands! I'm excited!

My son Dorion had been there since he was a little over 3 years old. He is now a happy, well-adjusted boy thanks to the staff there. I have to admit that this place treated and educated my son more than any public school has. My son has developmental delay and has little communication skills ,but everyone at Jumpstart treated him like family and the thought still touches my heart. I owe so much credit for this to everyone there especially Christina. They have excellent experience with infants, toddlers and preschoolers and are patient and kind. The kids get plenty of outdoor play and do many fun activities. I am so happy that I found them because they really do love children. They offer a loving and safe environment for infants and children to thrive. I would be happy to provide anyone with more information. Come take a look, you will be surprised at all that they have to offer!!

Mi hijo pasó por 3 aulas y 7 maestras en tan solo 3 meses y medio Ms Daniela , Iris y Aichel, Ms Ger y por último Ms Marianee y Roxana. De estas eficientes solo 2 que ya no trabajan en la escuela . Lo irónico de esto es que las aulas en las que ha estado mi hijo con 2 maestras son completamente ineficientes . Siempre se están quejando de que es demasiado, que son muchos niños y que ellas no pueden con todo hablo de una clase de niños de 3 años 15 niños 2 maestras. Mi hijo estuvo sufriendo maltrato por parte de otro niño de su clase desde el pasado viernes 26 de septiembre, le daba puñetazos en la cara todos los días durante 6 días seguidos a mi hijo , no podía Ni siquiera pasar por su lado ,este niño le agarraba a golpes .Conversé con la directora Destephan al respecto pero nada cambió , hablé con su maestra para que estuviera más al pendiente pero me dijo que mi hijo se acercaba a él para jugar y el otro niño volvía a darle constantemente . Pedí un reporte de incidencia que nunca me dieron , la escuela nunca documentó nada acerca de mi hijo , ningún reporte acerca de nada ni de ningún incidente ; hable repetidamente con la directora , incluso solicité una reunión con los padres del otro niño para encontrar alguna solución pero se negó ,incluso me dijo que no podía acercarme a los otros padres ni dejar una nota ni aunque fuese cordial . Cada vez que este niño golpeaba a mi hijo mi hijo seguía sin defenderse , cuando fianalmente se defendió lo sacaron de aula . Por más de 10 minutos, lejos de las cámaras . No era la primera vez que lo sacaban del aula sin mi consentimiento ,y más de 10 minutos , llamaba a la escuela para saber dónde estaba mi hijo y lo recogía rápidamente . Este pasado jueves mi hijo fue expulsado de la escuela , por solo pedirle el reporte de incidencia a la maestra y preguntarle a la maestra Marianne si los padres del otro niño sabía lo que estaba pasando ; lleve al niño a las 10:30 am ese día y lo estaba recogiendo más temprano para evitar las horas mínimas posibles de contacto con el otro niño , la directora dijo que yo no podía preguntarle nada a la maestra y que yo no tenía nada que hablar al respecto sobre lo que estaba pasando que me llevara a mi hijo inmediatamente de la escuela . y mi hijo estaba dentro de la escuela todavía .Una situación desbordante , una madre tiene todo el derecho de saber y preguntar por el bienestar de su hijo. En las cámaras de la escuela está claramente todo este maltrato registrado , como han discriminado a mi hijo y han justificado el comportamiento del niño golpeador, que no solo ha golpeado a mi hijo sino a otros niños del aula también incluyendo niña. No solamente este tema del niño que golpea a mi hijo , también la maestra ha estado tomando a mi hijo de manera brusca por el brazo casi lo lleva rastras, ha habido un trato diferenciado y discriminado con mi hijo desde que estoy expresando mi constante preocupación; lo han sacado del aula . La que limpia en la escuela ha estado cuidando los niños , no creo que sea eso prudente ,no es una educadora , deja mucho que pensar ; de le ha visto gritando a los niños y tratándolos bruscamente incluso peor aún le dió con las dos manos un manotazo a mi hijo en ambos hombros mientras simplemente comía su merienda de la tarde . No recomiendo esta escuela en absoluto . Están a favor del acoso escolar , las polizas no son de igualdad y los niños necesitan ser protegidos para mi en mi opinion es un lugar de riesgo para mi hijo definitivamente .

I m writing this review so everybody that thinks about having their kids in this school, thinks…read moretwice before doing it. My son started clases here on August 20th. The first day we went to look at the school, Yillian, the girl who greets you at first, who does not even look is old enough to have a full time job, did not know what denomination of Christians they were, she did not even know what the word meant. Nobody is Christian at that place, so don t get fooled by their name. My son, one day came home with a huge bruise on his leg, the following day I asked the teacher, because of course, nobody told me and there was no insident report, like it should ve been, and the teacher did not even remember what had happened. I showed her the picture I took, and she was surprised and did not know what happened, then she tells me, oh yes, that he was jumping on the stool infront of the water fountain and felt, but she checked him and did not see anything. I got one day an insident report saying my son had hit another kid and after I requested to watch the video when it happened, they had seen it before me, and told me that it was a misundertanding, that they were playing and in no where in the video it showed he had actually hit the kid. Another day he had taken a test on Monday, I asked the teach on tuesday how did he do it and she told me he had done great, more than half of the letters were done and everything good, I asked to see the test on Tuesday, they told me the teachers were still grading the test, on Wed, nothing, thursday nothing, finally I come in Friday and the lady at the front, Amelia, who is the only person who really cares for the kids and who is truly called for teaching, tells me, that my son did not want to do the test and that the teacher, as a special treatment to my son, sat with him and 3 other kids to do the test again and he had gotten A+ and at that point, they showed me the test. On Monday I told teacher Jeannette that what she had said on Monday was not true, she tells me that the office lied to me, that my son did do the test, but they misplaced the 4 tests and could not find them anywhere and that was the reason why they had to re-do the test. 3 different answers to the same question. My son did an assessment test, I was notified that he did wonderful I asked to see the test, since I have confirmed with several other daycares and teachers, that those records should be online available to the parents and a copy should ve been given to me, and nobody could give me an answer and to this point, I still don t have the copy of that test. My son was having little bruises on his arms, like finger tips marks and every day he would come with them, until the day I told teacher Jeannette, a few days later all the bruises were gone and never had them again. I had to put several snacks in my son s bookbag, because the amount of food they give the kids are so small, they are super hungry when you pick them up. He never brought a project home, no extra activities to keep the kids engaged in the learning system, one day I asked how many hours they watched tv, because my son would come home everyday telling me all the movies he watched, and the teacher said to the office that I was complaining because my son was watching too much tv. Overall, I don t even know how this schools is still running as a business. Don t bring your kids to this school, my son now is behind in the new school where he is going now because of the horrible learning techniques these people have, all the kids are reading in his new schools and he is now learning to blend the letters in. They only see the dollar sign in the kids forheads, there are many schools in the area where you can take your children and they will learn and be happier than in this place. Be aware and compare places, ask all the questions before you put your child in a daycare like this. A very Concered Mother!
