Parents get to make a lot of big decisions regarding the whole program, and each center has parent groups for making decisions, planning fun events, and fundraising.

I was a toddler teacher for a year and really love my job, Joan, our director does a very good job at running the place. She is a very caring, hard working, and very clean. I can say that I would never find a better daycare facility than Zion Hand in Hand.

The play areas…read morefor children are filled with natural wood furniture, and developmentally appropriate toys and materials, with engaging colors and textures. The Center is rich with representative books, posters, dolls, and music from around the Globe. There is a mixed age group, which allows older children to help and support younger students, as well as allow younger children to look up to older children and strive to learn to do the things older children can do. Beyond all that, the teachers focus individual attention to each child, and use observations and assessments, to structure Individualized learning. Above all, this Family Child Care truly feels like our child's "Home away from Home". My child has made friends, of various ages, that I know make her feel like they are an extention of her own family. I highly recommend "Infinite Horizons Child Development" to any parents searching for a beautiful, kind, welcoming, and engaging place for their little ones!

My child attended The Magic Flute for 1 Fall session and her Spanish improved tremendously through songs. Kids not only learn ABC's but also a bIt of geography, music, and baking. Unfortunately issues were encountered when the head teacher continuously pried my toddler for info regarding our personal lives. When a complaint was made, La Flauta Mágica not only denied asking such questions, but put fault on child. In addition to the lack of responsibility, the parent/teacher direct communication is lacking. Only 1 teacher is allowed to be in direct communication with parents while the others are not allowed to comment despite having direct contact with children. The preschool rents a portion of a church building with ample parking. Kids are divided in 2 groups with 3 teachers. Options vary on how many days you would like to our child to attend. No weekends, no after school or extended hours available.

Our son started going to Delynn's in-home care , Rugrats, after our infant care closed. It was an…read moreexperience I'll be forever grateful for. While I work in higher ed and value education and structure, when our son was younger than school-age, the most important qualities for us were: the development of his character, how he treated others, and that he could be in an environment that felt safe and didn't have flux in caregivers with whom he would bond. For three years, he built relationships with the kids here for the long-term (he's been in school- different from the ones his friends went to, for one year now, and he still has playdates and parties with some of the kids he met here), had to learn to resolve conflicts and work through differences. While working in these relationships, Delynn taught him foundational knowledge for school and physical awareness of his body. Last year, when he started at Santiam Christian, he felt confident and demonstrated competence in all of his schoolwork. His teacher would tell us that he could manage his emotions well, and acted very caringly toward other children. We are so thankful for the foundation that Delynn set for him in her childcare.

We didn't have a lot of time to search after I found a job, and we interviewed a few different providers but didn't feel that any of them were a good fit for us. We found Delynn (Rugrats THCC) and knew as soon as we interviewed with her that we found the right place for our kiddo. Delynn truly cares about the kids and families she serves, and in partnership with her, our daughter is getting ready to say goodbye at the end of the Summer and transition to Kindergarten. She'll be taking the things she's learned at Delynn's house with her, such as how to be a good friend, a solid educational foundation for entering Kindergarten, respect and care for living creatures, and the close sibling-like relationships she's made with the other littles there. Our family is going to miss having Delynn be a regular part of our lives, and we are grateful to have found such a wonderful, caring place for our daughter to grow and thrive.

I don't scare easily but I had a few startle moments there. My friends were scared. I was told by others that Oregon School for the Deaf (OSD) is beginning to get known for their haunted house adventures. I believe it because people from town were lining up to get scared. And, we had to wait quite a while! So, next year for Halloween, be sure to check out OSD's nightmarish experience!
