My children are so excited to come here every day. Both of my kids have started speaking Spanish at…read morehome and they learned so quickly. The pictures and videos throughout the day really ease my anxiety and knowing they are well taken care of. They brush their teeth after every meal/snack. They even had a dentist come two weeks ago to do a dental exam. That one less appointment I have to get off work and take them to! The staff is amazing and My family loves Kayla.

I highly recommend your kids NOT go here. Here's my story. Kinda long but worth it…read more I started off by putting my 3 y/o in this daycare center. Everything was going OK. No big concerns besides kids being bullies. Then I put my school age kids (2) in. Now I will admit my middle child has behavioral issues and that's where things took a turn. I started getting incident report after incident report after incident report. Mind you school age kids are mean. And I taught my kids to stick up for themselves. After months of explaining to the office staff (sylvia) and the director (Cynthia luna) the issues I was having hearing my school age kids tell me about abusive behavior the staff was portraying onto the kids. And my son telling me his teacher scares him and sqeezes his arms and legs, was the last straw with this place. After contacting the licensor, she had informed me to call cps and report the daycare facilty which i did. twice . In retaliation they terminated my daycare services. In the termination letter they mentioned i didnt provide the right milk for my son, which i have fought about before. If you are giving my son cheese and yogurt and in the meal plan it says milk then wheres the issue with milk. They mentioned my daughter and her poor behavior and if there was such a big issue than why didnt we exicute the behavioral plan they came up with and didn't even give her 8 days before terminating our care. Or even suggest i remove her and not all of my kids. termination is just easy to get rid of all istead of dealing with a parent who stands their ground. (Thats me) Lastly they mentioned since i reported them twice in less then 3 months they felt the need to terminate my care.now this one is not just cause for them to terminate anyones services. I have the right to report anything sispicious or wrong doing that my kids are telling me thats whats happening daily. The day they terminated me i recieved numerous pictures of my kids. From bruises to abrasions my kids caused themselves (besides what my son stated about his teachers) and another incident report. They then turned around and called cps on me in retaliation (according to the cps worker) which i agreed with. They made a report that my son had brusises all over his body including his ass. Cps has no findings and the case will be closed against me. So i repeat dont let your kids suffer in this place its not worth it. They dont like it when youre right. They dont like people to stick up for themselves. They dont like being reported which is every parents right to do so. dont waste your money. dont waste you time. Keep your kids safe and best interest at heart. Do not go here. FYI all college for kids are connected so the abuse extends to this facility as well.

I…read morehad no idea what I was going to do with my then 3 month old when I had to go back to work in a month. I just knew I couldn't put her in a day care center. Somehow I was lucky enough to find Pauline's name and number because she doesn't advertise because she's always full from referrals! If your lucky enough to find a spot here, take it! Pauline and Jeff have completely transformed their home to cater to young children! Every where you look there are opportunities for little ones to learn through play, imagination, nature, and art! They have even created an art studio for the kids! Leaving your babies here is like leaving them with a trusted family member; children are given a healthy dose of love, guidance, encouragement, structure, and firmness (when needed) to grow into confident, loving, inquisitive, and engaged school age kids. My daughter is 9 and still asks to go back on days there is no school and during summer breaks. It is such a relief to be able to leave your child someplace you know that they love and are excited to be at. Dash Point HIghlands Child Care is that kind of place! Don't be surprised if some days your child cries when it's time to go home with you!

Both Nanny & Families -…read more After careful consideration as I hate to disparage anyone, I decided to convey my experience.  I have over 20 years experience as a nanny and a caregiver with excellent references. I also have extensive professional corporate experience in executive positions.  My last charge was a year ago and I decided it was time to love another young one. I find great enjoyment in teaching children.  I contacted Madison after seeing a position I was very much peaked my interest.  The response from Madison was " You sound great and I would love to interview you! I am currently on leave and conducting all of my interviews via Skype or Facetime."  I responded that I did not use Skype (archaic type of video chat) and had an Android. However suggested we could do Facebook messenger as video chat or an initial telephone interview.  Madison responded with "FB messenger is definitely an option, let's do that!" And set a meeting time.  The meeting time came and went with no contact from Madison. I called and left her a VM as well as reached out via email with no response to our missed meeting. I wish I had read all the reviews prior to applying and wasting my valuable time. This is an issue with her. And while she continues to apologize and/or make excuses it appears this is ongoing for years.  In my experience this nanny serive will let down both the nanny and families with the lack of follow through, professionalism and consistent excuses as to why it failed (her previous responses) Hopefully in the future she will realize the value of others time.

Madison is an absolutely joy to work with! Finding a new nanny to care for your kids is a very…read morestressful process and she has come to our rescue on multiple occasions. Madison truly cares about finding the right fit for both the family and the nannies. We've worked with other nanny finding services but no one else has given the same care and compassion that Westside Nanny provided. She really took the time to understand our family dynamics and make suggestions on what qualities to look for in a nanny. We have a very busy family schedule and Madison made sure that she screened all the candidates and only recommended the quality people that she felt would be a good fit for our kids. Interviewing candidates can be so time consuming and stressful but Madison was able to give us the highest quality options for a nanny. Madison really considers the feelings of both the families and nannies and strives to find the perfect match. We are very fortunate to have worked with someone who has a passion for her business. We can't thank her enough for what she's done for us and we would highly recommend her to anyone seeking quality child care.

We love it here! Miss Casey and Miss Emily in the infant classroom are total sweethearts!…read more They show all the children so much love and care, my son is always in a good mood for both drop off and pick up, he's so excited to see the teachers and the other kids. They are always super on top of diaper changes and feeding and naps, we get updates throughout the day and I never have to worry about my son while he's there. They are also great about doing lots of enriching activities with the kids, way more than I would be able to do or even think of myself, and they are really good about supervising the interactions between the kids so they get to experience positive social interactions with other babies. I believe the entire experience has been really good for my son's development and I'm incredibly happy with and grateful for the teachers, primarily Miss Emily and Miss Casey, although all the other teachers and helpers I've met have been awesome as well. It's definitely the most expensive childcare option in the area that I've seen but so far I've felt it's worth it, in large part thanks to the quality of teacher they are able to afford.

ABSOLUTELY NOT!…read more First, I want to say that the teachers in both the Preschool 1 and Toddlers 2 classrooms were incredibly kind. They were genuinely the only positive part of our experience at The Goddard School. Everything else was truly unacceptable. Before my children started, I had multiple conversations with the administration about my daughter's autism. I was transparent about her needs, discussed accommodations, and was repeatedly assured that she would be welcomed, supported, and that this was an inclusive environment equipped to work with children on the spectrum. Those promises were not kept. My daughter wasn't even given a full day before they decided to terminate her enrollment. She was not violent or aggressive--she was overstimulated and in a brand-new environment, and she needed support. Around 2:00 p.m., Fatima called me and asked to meet the following morning to create a support plan for my daughter. I immediately agreed because I believed we would be working together to help her succeed. Then, just two hours later, around 4:00 p.m., Kayla called and informed me that my daughter was being terminated instead. The complete reversal was shocking and deeply upsetting. As a parent of a child with disabilities, I cannot ignore how this situation felt. I believe the way my daughter was treated raises serious concerns, and I will be reporting what occurred. Another issue was the professionalism of the administration. During our tour, Fatima presented herself as warm, welcoming, and enthusiastic. Yet on our very first day, I observed her rolling her eyes while my children were simply excited and acting like children in a new environment. It was a completely different person than the one I met during enrollment. I also read Kayla's biography on the school's website, and unfortunately, the compassion and values described there were not reflected in how she treated my family. That evening, I sent an email seeking clarification about the decision to terminate my daughter and asking for an explanation of what had happened. I never received the courtesy of a response. When I returned to pick up my other two children, Fatima looked at me with a truly disgusting expression on her face instead of professionalism or empathy. I am sharing this experience so other families--especially those raising children with autism or other disabilities--can make informed decisions. If a school advertises itself as inclusive and capable of supporting children with special needs, those commitments should be genuine, not just part of the enrollment process. I was warned before I enrolled my kids here, don't make the mistake I did.

My daughters first day of daycare went the way I was hoping it wouldn't, fear (just turned 4…read moremonths old, INFANT ROOM) Long story short: -I wasn't given a code to enter both door to the center. I had to wait on someone coming in both times. Not one person introduced themself or greeted us. It was like the teacher was unaware she was coming or just unprepared. I had to lead the conversation, where to put my daughter's bottles, diapers etc. -I picked her up with the whole right side of her face completely scratched up. No one called me or addressed it when I came in. When I picked her up I noticed it. "A friend must have grabbed her to say hello." Wasn't an actual answer at the time. Why was my 4 month even on the floor?? She is the youngest and doesn't even sit up yet. Safety for her wasn't considered. Couldn't give me an incident report because no one was available to sign. The following day I stopped in to grab it and her stuff, the form stated "she was laying on floor, friend scratched her" -The teacher had my baby laying across her lap no head support just dangling off her leg. She looked miserable! She didn't even get off the floor to great me or pass me my daughter. I had to bend over her it was just unsettling. -As soon as I walk in "she cried all day! Nothing soothed her! She cried all day. She wouldn't stop crying." When I left her I told them to call me if she was too much I'll drop everything. My daughter opened her eyes at the lady & she goes "don't you start crying again" not in a positive manner. -Asked when she was coming back (I hadn't processed the events) I said tomorrow at 6am, she gave a sigh and eye roll like "we have to do this again tomorrow" Talked to the Center Director the day after incident & she didn't say a whole lot. I spoke about all the issues and I felt like I was talking to myself. I'm not sure if she did anything about the situation like maybe more training for her teachers etc. I explained she will never be coming back & they failed my daughter
