I just completed my CCW course with John Lewis at NFI, and I can honestly say he was one of the…read morebest instructors I've ever had. John breaks everything down in a way that's clear, practical, and easy to understand--whether you're brand new or already experienced. He doesn't just teach the material, he makes sure you actually get it, especially when it comes to safety, responsibility, and real-world application. What stood out the most was his professionalism and the way he kept the class engaged the entire time. No fluff, no wasted time--just solid, valuable instruction that prepares you for both the test and real-life situations. If you're considering getting your CCW, I highly recommend taking the course with John and NFI. You'll walk away confident, informed, and better prepared. 5 stars all the way.

When we found out we were expecting our second child we knew we want to hire a doula. We were so…read moreincredibly blessed to have met Christine with Redding Doula Collective! I knew that I wanted my birth experience to be different from my first. Christine listened to my desires and concerns. She helped me create my birth plan and spent 4 hours with me preparing for my birthing experience and postpartum concerns. She helped us draft a letter to friends and family about our postpartum guidelines with baby. She helped us by creating conversation about expectations and possible fears. Our prenatal visit with her was instrumental in calming our anxieties and feeling more prepared. She also offered multiple referrals to birthing, breastfeeding and postpartum classes. By week 35 we realized we would be having a planned csection. Christine didn't miss a beat and helped us prepare for our csection. She attended our csection and was a great comfort for both my husband and I. While my husband focused on baby she sat with me and held my hand though surgery. She stayed with us through preop and postop as well. However, the most helpful aspects of hiring our doula was postpartum services! Christine has been amazing checking in regularly, accompanying me to the lactation clinic, helping us with grocery shopping, cooking us dinner on the days she is here and just being an overall amazing support person! We are so incredibly happy with our choice to hire her and we would highly recommend her services to anyone who is expecting!

Hello to all parents and caregivers. :-) As a mother for 23 years, former teacher and a person with…read morean extensive ECE educational background, degrees in Social Psychology and Social Science as well as finishing my Masters in Clinical Psychology, I found myself needing temporary care for my daughter during the current Summer months while she is out of school from RSA and with my hectic schedule. Having come from such a warm, loving, and attentive after-school program, I fear we may have been spoiled and enjoyed the luxuries of a quality after school program at RSA that we unfortunately are unable to recommend at this time anyone enroll their child in Heather Ridge if they want to continue the tradition of excellence that is always expected. Heather Ridge has some fine teachers, no doubt about it however, their hands are tied as to how they are allowed to encourage or respond to unruly, misguided, and undisciplined children who act and behave inappropriately and have not had the best opportunities to perhaps learn some coping skills with the full knowledge of the director and their rules and regulations. My daughter has only been in attendance for less than two weeks, and already, licensing had been called and on premise for issues beyond the children's and parent's control. My 8-year old daughter has been systematically allowed to be terrorized by a 'student' who has been in attendance at Heather Ridge for many years, admittedly by the director. We had attempted to express our concerns with how their procedures and policies work however, we were met with opposition from the assistant director, Krystin with unapologetic excuses and adamant denial coupled with a meeting to work together to resolve the issue and move forward with a positive goal in mind never coming to fruition. I was also hoping to address the fact that she told my daughter while I was not present that the reason the boy picked on her so much was because 'he liked 'her.' Personally, as a family unit and a long-time parent and former teacher, this type of excuse sets the bar for young girls to believe that it is okay for boys to harass and accost them merely because they like them. This is a serious recipe for girls to grow up thinking it's okay and if, in fact, find themselves in abusive relationships later down the line the notion that it's okay for a man to abuse them because it means 'they like/love them." Please note that this facility partners with SCOE, so you will find that there are recommendations made that may not be the best fit however are 'financially feasible'. I think the previous reviews stand by themselves with regard to this facility, and anyone considering Heather Ridge should look to the reviews to ascertain whether or not it's worth the drama, degradation and safety to enroll your child in this program or make the effort and financial decision to find somewhere else to enroll your child which have more than stellar reviews. It's so easy to write a mission statement including but not limited to "Our goal is to allow children to have hands-on learning experiences that foster age appropriate development" and not keep that promise! How easy it is to write that but not keep that commitment? Here is hoping that this center can find the time to work together with us to solve our issues and meet the safety, security and happiness needs of my daughter as well as the other children in attendance. If it is happening to one, it's happening to others. Recognize that, even if it is only one parent that is willing to speak up and be her child's advocate! Excited to see some form of thoughtful and productive communication for the sake of all children in attendance in the near future! Looking forward to an updated review with positive results! UPDATE: This school's resolution to our issues: After writing a one-star Yelp review, we were given a 2-week notice to leave and accusations laid out that my daughter might have contributed to the issue. LOL. Seems they have no interest in creating a caring and positive environment for all but would rather eliminate any potential desire to correct irresponsible behavior by both students and staff.
