My daughter attended this daycare for less than a week before I pulled her out. She was terrified…read moreto go each morning, and was very uncharacteristically timid when we picked her up. The staff did not even acknowledge her, or us, when we dropped off/picked up. Definitely had a sense that something was off. We owned a business next to the center shortly after, and often watched as staff would yell, belittle, and threaten small children sitting outside play. There was constant yelling coming from the classroom nearest to our shop. After complaining to the owners, the only difference was that that staff member took the children to the opposite side of the building to play, and installed black curtains to cover her classroom windows. Several close friends and customers have also shared their own personal horror stories from this daycare. I highly recommend not taking any child to them.

Even though I wish I could recommend this daycare because I believe some of the teachers are really…read moregreat at what they do, I wouldn't recommend anyone taking their child here. We encountered issues and when we addressed them with the director, we were given excuse after excuse and things continued to deteriorate. Then, a new child in our child's class started biting other children including our daughter, and sometimes it happened every day. The director's way of handling the situation was to 'continue to train the staff and monitor the child more closely.' Needless to say, the behavior continued and then they started removing the child who was being bitten (not the child who was actually biting other children) and taking them to a younger classroom so they had to miss out on the activities happening in their class. We finally had to remove our daughter from this center when it became clear that nothing was going to be done to protect the children being victimized by another child who had displayed a clear pattern of behavior that needed to be handled in a more deliberate fashion but went largely ignored. Another child who was being victimized was also removed from the center about the same time as our daughter by her parents because they were met with the same response from the director. Our daughter was also constantly sick, which may be a given when a bunch of children are together all day. However, it resulted in her having to have surgery and she was STILL sick all the time afterwards. Now that she is no longer attending this center, she no longer struggles with being sick constantly. And, of course, when we addressed this concern with the director, we were met with excuses. The main root of the problem at this center is that the director is incapable, or simply unwilling, of actually solving problems, and instead resorts to blaming the staff and making excuses to placate the parents. The teaching staff did everything they could to help us with this situation but their hands were tied since the director wouldn't do anything about it. The turnover rate at this center is ridiculously high, and is reportedly due to the director making it a hostile workplace that teachers don't want to work in. There are also reports of infestations of mice and cockroaches in the buildings.

My son enjoyed his time there and looked forward to attending "school" each day. He made many friends and had the chance to engage in a variety of activities each day.

Wildflower Montessori has been so much more than a school for our family, it has truly been a home…read moreaway from home. They helped raise not one, but two of our children, and I cannot say enough good things about the care, love, and dedication of this place. Our son, Silas, attended Wildflower for two years before our youngest ever started. When our daughter, Sloane, joined later, it felt like coming home all over again. When Silas needed additional support that his elementary school couldn't provide, Wildflower welcomed him back with open arms without hesitation. That level of compassion and commitment is rare. We have absolutely loved every teacher we've had throughout the years. These are the only people I would ever trust with my children, to the point that we have even used Wildflower teachers as babysitters when needed. That alone speaks volumes about the trust and confidence we have in this team. Almost a year later, our youngest still asks if we can stop by just so she can give her teachers a hug, and I think that says everything about the kind of place Wildflower is. If you're looking for more than just a daycare, if you want a family to help raise your child while they're away from home. I highly recommend Wildflower Montessori. Our children are stronger, more confident, and more successful because of the foundation they received here, and we will forever be grateful.

Hi parents! We just…read moremoved to Parkville and prior to purchasing our home, we were on the hunt for a new provider for our 4 year old. Our kiddo is the youngest of two, so we have been through many daycares and providers in our time. To put a fine point on it, Wildflower is far and away the best provider we have found in our roughly 9 years of using multiple providers (and touring many more!) we were looking for something that takes the best of Montessori, but isn't so stuck in the Montessori world that kids aren't being taught to excel later in a more traditional education environment. Our son had attended a strict Montessori school prior and he tells us almost every day how much he *loves* school. They provide so many fun experiences to mix things up, aerial yoga, the KC zoo, the KC chiefs, and field trips to the bank and grocery stores--and all of that in just the last couple of months. Our son *adores* his teacher, and the environment does feel very much like a family. One that we're happy to be a part of. (I will note that I was not prompted to do a review, nor was I compensated in any way).

My 1 year old has not attended this facility in over 2 months and I have gone back and forth with…read morewriting this review. I decided I should share my story because it is raw and real, and hopefully it will help other parents in deciding which childcare facility will be a good fit for them. I will start by saying I will never recommend this daycare to anyone. My child attended this daycare for roughly three months. Over the course of the three months my child was here, there were several things that transpired that really bothered me. At drop-off and pick-up, it very much felt like a transaction. You (quite literally) hand your child over the counter, and the staff take them back to a classroom, and there is little conversation that takes place between the adults. This was a shock to me because at my child's last daycare, the staff worked really hard to build relationships with the parents and would let you see the classrooms and such. Here, not so much. As a former educator, I know parent communication is a huge and vital part in being a teacher of any kind. Lydia (my child's teacher and "manager" of this facility) did not seem to want to partake in this part of the job, at least not when you had questions about your child's health and safety while under her care. Often times, even in person, when I would ask clarifying questions or inquire about my child's health, she would seem annoyed or like she didn't really care to answer my questions and give me good and detailed information. I do not feel like the staff here are professional at all. There was one morning that Jules (the owner) was supposed to open up the daycare. The facility opens at 7 (or at least it is supposed to). My husband showed up a little after 7 and could not get into the building. He called the daycare numerous times, with no answer. He finally called Jules multiple times, and when she answered after several calls, she told him that she overslept and that it happens about 3 times per year, so he could expect it to happen at least two more times before the end of the year. I totally get that oversleeping happens to the best of us and that we are all human; What I could not believe was the final comment made. Another example on lack of professionalism which can be seen from my screenshots that have been included in this review is the fact that my child got unexpectedly kicked out of this facility for no reason at all. Not only did he get kicked out without an explanation (which I understand is a part of many daycare policies), but he was kicked out via text message instead of a face-to-face conversation. There had not even been any prior conversations leading up to this decision letting me know that it was being considered. When taking away my child's naps was brought up and I asked to continue trying to get him to take two IF POSSIBLE (see the first photo), Lydia's response was that "she didn't know what to tell me". That text message was followed up with the one of her deciding on her own (she didn't consult Jules, or even let Jules know for that matter) to kick my child out. You can see my response back to this, and then Lydia eventually refused to text back and clarify why my child's care was being abruptly terminated. On the Friday mentioned in the text message, I went in and asked Jules for my letter of termination. She looked at me like a deer in headlights. She told me that I would not be getting a letter of termination because my child was not getting kicked out. When I told her that Lydia had said otherwise, Jules was even more confused and couldn't give me a straight answer. It blew my mind that one staff member could make such a rash decision without even talking to their superior first. Him leaving this daycare was a true blessing, and the facility he is at now actually teaches him things, they do arts and crafts, he is safe, and he is loved. It's a shame that Liberty Family Child Care couldn't offer those things to my baby.
