    I know. Choosing a preschool is stressful, and the UPK system is a great benefit that is also…read moredifficult to navigate. We are so glad that our oldest got to go to preschool at CLP. Pam really helped us understand the UPK program. The school has separate rooms for multiple age groups. Ours was in Bloomers. Ms. Ciara, Ms. Karina, and all of the other teachers really help the Pre-K group get ready for kindergarten. They have centers, movement, circle time (reading), show-and-tell, and outside time pretty much every day. They have very clean classrooms. Each of the students receives enough but not too much attention in order to encourage socialization, problem solving, and independence. The one area that some may find lacking is the playground. CLP doesn't have a huge, elaborate play structure like some preschools. While this may deter some, I think it has some benefits because a) your kids are not really going to remember the playground so much as their friends and b) they'll be much more creative in how they play with their friends. Finally, the check-in and message system they use is great. Check-in Is easily completed by scanning a QR code and you can assign others for pickup. The teachers post class and/or individual updates almost every day so that you can see a little bit of what they're learning and doing. They're also very responsive to messages that parents send through the app.

    We have been with Creative Learning since January 2020. The leadership and teaching staff worked…read morediligently throughout the pandemic to stay open when possible while keeping the staff and kiddos safe. Our daughter has loved the teachers in each of the classrooms and each day has been excited to go to school.

    My family and I are from California and just moved to Colorado a year ago. We were in desperate…read moreneed of childcare, I called Joann and she immediately gave me all the information I will need to enroll. My family were welcomed right away and treated with so much love. My son love the positive experience he receives at one step academy. I couldn't be more great full!

    One step academy infants reached out to me after seeing my job post on care.com stating that they…read morecould meet my childcare needs. At the time I was only looking for part time, so I declined, as their prices are outlandish for only a couple hours one day per week. I then needed full time, so I reached out to them. I was pleasantly surprised that the facility was exactly as advertised in the photos (after having met with at least one other care giver that was nothing like what they had advertised). The facility is minimalistic, and therefore very neat and clean. I met with Joann and Renee and they seemed great. I quickly paid the registration as I needed to get started with child care right away in order to start a new job, and I had been looking for over a month for an opening. My daughter was in their "care" for less than 2 days (about a half day both days) when they told me she couldn't come back because she was crying too much, and that it was beyond their expertise. With all of the years experience and education they claimed, I was extremely surprised and taken aback by this. She was a 7 month old baby meeting these strangers and they didn't expect her to cry?!!? This was after I paid them $460, for less than two days! (They did at least refund the registration fee.) This left me scrambling to find child care right before the Thanksgiving holiday, in order to start my job after the holiday. They also made me worry that there was something wrong with my child. They basically said it wasn't normal for her to cry. Luckily, I found an amazing care giver, and had absolutely none of the crying issues that these women claimed. The problem was clearly with them and not my child. Based on what I saw, I think that they have too many children in their care in order to properly care for an infant. I feel like I dodged a bullet that my daughter by not having my daughter in their "care". I think she would have been neglected and would have picked up the nasty attitude of the business owners, and I am glad that I found care elsewhere. They claim to be Montessori philosophy, but I think the real reason they are minimalistic is that they need to move everything out to switch over to eyelashes in the evening (the facility address was also registered as an eyelash salon). Further, when I asked for the EIN so I could file my taxes, they did not send it to me. I waited for over a week to receive something and did not. When I asked again they gave me a terrible attitude and claimed they already sent it. They had not. I think they were hoping I would just let it go. Either that, or again, they're probably "caring" for too many children than they can handle and probably either got it mixed up with someone else or thought they sent it and never did. I finally received it and am glad that I will never have to contact them for anything ever again. They are not fit to care for infants. If your baby cries, like all babies do, take them somewhere else.
