Unfortunately we had a very negative experience at Kids R Kids West Chester. Initially when we…read morestarted our daughter there, communication from the principal was good and the care provided by the teachers was decent. Things really started going downhill when Jessica took over as principal. We started noticing the updates through Procare were few and far between, and when asked for updates from the teachers at pick up we got minimal info... so we started resorting to watching the cameras that were made available to parents. At this point we started noticing our daughter (and many other kids) were not being offered drinks for breakfast - this was noted on MULTIPLE occasions. My husband and I reached out to the front desk numerous times to voice this concern to assure our daughter is offered drinks, and after progress was not being made we reached out to Jessica via email. The email was ignored, so my husband spoke with her one day at pick up to request a meeting - at the meeting we expressed our concerns of drinks not being offered, she assured us this wasn't true and diminished our concerns. We pleaded for her to look at the camera footage, but I don't believe this was ever done. We also expressed our concerns that Procare had been down for a month and paper charting wasn't being done. She gave some false promises that she would talk to the teachers and assure this is being done here forward and said there was nothing they could do about Procare being down. The coming few weeks we received maybe two paper charts with Procare still being down. The final straw was when we brought our daughter home and noted that she has a diaper rash and un-wiped leftover stool on her legs and peri area. This was shocking because our daughter is 2 years and potty training, and hasn't had a diaper rash since she was a newborn... and this happened in a matter of 8 hours at daycare. We pulled her from Kids R Kids that day, reached out to the regional director to voice our concerns, who was so apologetic and wonderful. She did inform us that Procare was only down maybe 3 days, and not the 1-2 months that Jessica led us to believe... so just another wild thing to add to the list of concerns. Overall I would NEVER recommend this daycare to anyone under the care of Jessica and the toddler room teachers (aside from Miss Helen, who was very kind and caring) they have no accountability and don't take parents concerns seriously. Please think twice before sending your child here.

The school is play based, so the kids didn't even know they were learning at times. As a parent, my favorite part was being able to be a part of the classroom. It was fantastic to watch my child interact with others, and see the joy in their eyes when they got to share their special day with me.

They have it! They ask for adults to help with special events (talent shows, bunny brunch, plant sales, pumpkin night...) and the school community shows up and knocks it out of the park! The kids are constantly around teachers, aides, parent helpers, and other adults who care. The teachers want to see these children grow and flourish. I remember my wife & I going to all our preschool open house tours. Individually, we both just knew - after seeing the school and talking to the teachers - this was where our kids needed to go!

I have nothing but positive things to say about AAK! We enrolled our daughter (21 months at the…read moretime) about 4.5 months ago and our son started at 14 weeks back at the end of January. We've been extremely pleased so far with the care they're receiving. Our daughter is really thriving. She transitioned from an in-home facility, so it was a big change for her. They do such a great job of balancing letting them play and go wild while also keeping structure and learning. She naps well, eats well, plays well, and is constantly learning new things. Her teachers have also been a huge help recently with potty training! The teachers in her class are on the younger side and have the energy it takes to run around with a bunch of two year olds all day Our son is doing well too! He's been napping well, he's getting his bottles on time, and is a pretty happy little guy every evening when we pick him up. The primary teachers in his classroom are ladies who have likely already raised their families. They are very loving and affectionate and also have the patience it takes to deal with crying babies most of the day A HUGE selling point for us is the camera system. Personally, I cannot even begging to put a price on the peace of mind I get from being able to check in on my kids whenever I want. Whether I am just missing them or want to check in for other reasons (has my daughter peed her pants and had to change clothes today? Ha) it is really really beneficial. Each day we get a paper for each child that says when they went to the bathroom/had their diaper changed, when they napped, when and what they ate, etc. For control freaks like me, this is great. I'm a "the more information the better" person. Anytime we have had comments/suggestions, they've been addressed and implemented immediately. For instance, we asked if our daughter's teachers could give us more feedback on her days and they immediately started writing little "high/low" recaps on her papers for us. We asked if they could give her a late afternoon/early evening snack to help with her "hangriness" on the car ride home and that same day they started an additional snack. Long story short, we have most certainly not been disappointed with our choice!

Overall not a great experience for us personally. Some teachers are absolutely amazing (especially…read moreinfant room and age 2) but the preK room was a mess this past year with a ton of turnover from the teachers to the point where I didn't even know who was in my child's classroom. Then one teacher decided to hit on my husband which made him super uncomfortable and he refused to do dropoffs for quite some time. My kid is far from perfect which we know and understand but they had me convinced there were serious issues at play so we put my child into therapy and had them tested for ADHD and personality/behavior disorders. All the tests came back negative and the therapist and counselor couldn't figure out why we were there since my child was considered a normal 5 year old testing boundaries and understanding feelings. My child has attended many birthday parties and they are always praised for being the best behaved child there and we have few to no issues at home. All poor behavior seems to be related to AAK. There are cameras in the room so you can check in often but the teachers rarely have control of the classroom and they are often on their phones which I brought up to the front desk staff multiple times to no avail. The high turnover for the room also results in teachers with various discipline styles and not always age appropriate. I have saved all communication with the center and I have an email from the center telling me that they believe in ignoring bad behavior which is why they don't talk to my child when they are upset. While I understand the concept, this often led to escalation that could have been avoided by verbal communication and respect. One discipline action was to have the child write "I will not disrespect my teacher" over and over again.... Did I mention this is a 4&5 classroom where they can't read yet? In another example After the news shared about a school shooting my child came home and said that the teacher told them that happened because kids didn't behave!!! I was furious on that one as my child was convinced misbehavior led to getting shot. When my child was finally expelled for violence we never received a written letter nor an incident report but instead were just told on the phone that my child wasn't welcomed back. The other parents and I have a group text and no one heard the same story of what happened and I still don't know what all happened that day (I imagine the truth is somewhere in the middle of what the center, the kids (including the other involved student), and my own child have told me). Based on the other reviews on here I imagine the daycare will reply back back blaming me and my child as they usually do but I just recommend any new parents talk to other parents before enrolling and talk to parents with children in the upper classrooms who have had experiences. We were there 5 years before my child was expelled and as a result I also pulled my second younger child which is a shame because they loved their teachers. But I just couldn't risk them ending up in the same situation as the older sibling. If you do go here I also recommend Not letting your child move up classrooms early as they get bored quite easily and routines are the same. My child was in the last classroom since 3.5yrs old (even though its a 4&5 room) and they were learning the same things at 3.5 as 5.5yrs so there is no division in the class for different coursework based on age or intellect. We have since moved to a new daycare and my eldest is doing amazing!! They are being challenged intellectually, have had no behavioral issues, and are loved by their teachers: Either the change in centers changed my child or nothing about my child changed but the issue was with AAK. I debated posting a review but its important that parents to talk to parents. Everyone will likely have a different experience and I'm sure some people will have a wonderful 5 years there but this was just our experience and even if we are an outlier I felt it needed to be shared.

Gingerbread house lied and claimed my statements were untrue, but I have the email evidence to back…read moreme up: "I was informed on April the 25th that as of April 29th, Gingerbread House would no longer be able to provide care for my son Robert due to staffing issues. Even though they were the ones who terminated care, I was sent an invoice for the the week of the 29th. Due to the settings in the phone app the daycare uses to take payments (Brightwheel), I was unable to remove the automatic payment or payment method. I called and left a voice-mail the morning of Monday April 29th informing the daycare of the issue and requested they stop the payment. That call was never returned and the payment posted. After not hearing back from the daycare for a few days, I sent an email on Wednesday May 1st, detailing the issue and requesting they issue the refund and remove my children from their system. I finally received a response on May 2nd asking me to provide a Venmo or CashApp to their personal cell phone to have the money refunded, which I'm not comfortable with. I chose not to take the conversation to her personal cell phone, as that seems shady to me. I know that it is possible to post a refund through the Brightwheel app, as I have been in contact with them as well. They have reached out to her on my behalf, sending her the instructions on how to refund me and remove my children on her end. I replied to her email asking for her to refund through the Brightwheel app, and pointed out my children were still enrolled with autopay still on and asked again for her to turn this off and remove my children from her system. I have not received any response. On May 4th I was sent another invoice for the week of May 6th. I reached out through email again to attempt to get my refund and have her remove my children to stop invoicing me for care that is not being provided. My child is now at a new daycare altogether and she is still charging me for hers. Thankfully the support at Brightwheel were able to remove my method of payment, but as of right now, I still have an invoice for Gingerbread House this week and she has not responded to the Brightwheel support or me. The new daycare also uses Brighwheel, but I cannot add a payment method or I will get another fraudulent charge from this daycare. There is no excuse as to why nearly two weeks later this still hadn't been resolved." I have several emails from Brightwheel confirming she had not been responding to them either. She claimed she tried to reach out to me several times (she didn't), and even if that were true, she always had the ability to refund me through the app and remove my invoices from day one and she didn't. It wasn't till I wrote this review that she finally fixed the invoicing and claimed she refunded me (she didn't). It was still another week after that before I got my money back, and that was only through my dispute claim through my credit card company.
