We had a great experience with Ebony and Children at Play Event Childcare. We were in Detroit for…read morea wedding and needed child care for six rambunctious kids ranging from 1 1/2 to 4 1/2 years old. We were able to book CAPEC months in advance, which gave us the peace of mind to book the trip knowing that we had reliable child care in place for the night of the wedding. The reservation process was smooth and easy. I spoke to Ebony by phone and she explained her services and confirmed that she could accommodate the size of our group. Once we decided to book CAPEC, we received a link to fill out all the necessary information online (i.e. allergy information and emergency contacts for each child). We then received a written agreement laying out all the terms and information we needed to plan ahead. Given that we had a large group of six kids, Ebony brought a second staff member, Yolaunda. The two of them came very well prepared with plenty of toys and activities for the kids to play with. As soon as they arrived at the hotel they had the kids engaged with bubbles, balloons, and musical instruments. They also did a great job of comforting/distracting the kids so that the parents could slip out without causing a meltdown. Throughout the evening Ebony texted us updates and pictures of the kids playing and enjoying themselves, which was very reassuring and put our minds at ease so we could enjoy the wedding festivities. When we got back to the hotel at midnight all of the kids were fast asleep. The next morning the kids told us how much fun they had with Ebony and Yolaunda, which is really the best feedback you can get. Thank you Ebony, Yolaunda and Children At Play Event Childcare! We can't thank you enough.

Over the past years I have witnessed this place go from bad to worse. Employees come and go and they can't retain employees more than a month.

Payments and billings are not managed so there is always discrepancy about it. Kids play area is behind the building with no fenced in area. Cars cut through speeding the alley way which should not be allowed by state in my opinion. List could go on and on. But, I will end with this.

This is the worse experience I have ever had with a daycare. I don't typically review because I…read moredon't like to harm a reputation and understand that people have off days, but thought it was important to get the word out about this place as it is above and beyond terrible here. I was there for 7 weeks. From day one I had issues. Right from the beginning the gentlemen who introduced me to the facility was rude and gave me no information. You could tell he didn't like his job and even asked me about the place I had come from and if they were hiring. He was only there a couple more days after that, but I didn't get any orientation or paperwork. He didn't even ask for papers for my daughter. I brought them in on my own assuming they must at least need her shot records? I just moved here from South Carolina and didn't know much about the area. This was the only day care I could find that was open past 6 and it was a deal compared to other places around. I have been looking since to find a place open later because if its to good to be true then you can't expect any kind of quality. The first week she was there she was bitten so bad it broke the skin. Also in that first week I noticed her diaper soaked when she came home. So I put a mark with a sharpie on her diaper the next day and when she got home she still had the same diaper on! I talked to the teacher in her room and she said she would do something about it, but again the next day, the same thing!! There is no order, no accountability here. The managers are never there and never available to talk with you. Most of the girls that work there are not polite and don't seem like they are passionate about kids. They will look at you pull up and wait till you have to beat on the window to be let in while you stand in the cold. Then they will take their time walking to let you in. I have had a lot of complaints and so they have been especially impolite with me and my husband. I should have pulled her out, but I kept going while I was looking for another place. And she had made a little friend so I thought she would be ok until I could find somewhere else. Then she came home with a nasty bloody scratch on her bottom. It was obvious this was from her getting her diaper changed and someone with long nails not being gentle. I took a picture and went in the next morning to talk to someone in charge. But of course there was no one. Then that same night they sent a note home saying the scratch had happened that day and my daughter had done it. Clearly they were trying to cover their tracks because I had the photo dated the night before. A few weeks later my husband tells me that the girl working in the evening was very rude to him and told him until he paid his balance our daughter couldn't come back. He then produces a $900 dollar invoice. I was in disbelief. Not only is this place so disorganized that they don't know someone would owe them 7 back weeks of pay, but they don't keep records or organize the money I do give them. I had to go back and get all my receipts and bring them in. This was unreal to me. I am a property manager of 240 apartments. I have to keep track of large amounts of money, residents and complaints, maintenance and a myriad of other things on any given day. You have a system when it comes to money. Not only that, but I am ALWAYS available to the people here if they need a manager to talk to. There is never management here. I think they want a business without having to work at all for it. The last straw happened this morning. This was so beyond disbelief. I went to drop my daughter off and they told me I couldn't bring her for a week because I hadn't filled out a schedule. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I had to be to court for my job in an hour and now I am being told I don't have child care. I was so upset. They are jeopardizing my livelihood with this. I didn't know we even had to have a schedule. She said I should have known it was in my handbook. Well I never got one. She said well its on the wall. Who has time to read a wall? I haven't been doing this from the beginning. No one ever told me this was so important to do that I would be told one morning I can't even take my child to daycare. No communication, no organization and zero customer service or care. Trust me, The unprofessionalism of this establishment and the care they give the children is deplorable. Please, stay as far away from this place as possible. They don't care about the kids at all. They pay the workers horribly so they don't have good care. I couldn't figure out this whole schedule thing. I work full time, my schedule never changes. I realized its because they are so worried about paying for the care our children receive, they must ask for the schedules so they don't have to have to many full time employees. These people are terrible. As a manager, I am shocked by how poorly this place is run. They shouldn't be in business at all.

My wife and I are both working through this Pandemic as our industry's are qualified as an Essential Service. I especially am away from home more as my company is a partner with FEMA to transport aid/supplies to areas of need during this Pandemic. We have used a nanny in our home for 15 years. Some have been found by a family friend, word-of-mouth, Care and Nanny Services. As with any family who utilize a Nanny there are stories. But the story for us has stopped with Lena. Comparing our experiences with what we have encountered with Lena is like night and day. Knowing first hand the service you will experience with Lena is very hard to come by. My only regret is that we did not find each other sooner, like 9 years ago. But we would not have found _________ and the girls enjoy her very much. The difference in Lena's Service from other Nanny Companies is her dedication to 'the match'. This is not a, "quick, let's fill a home with a warm body type of service". Nor should it be. Do personalities conflict sometimes, absolutely. But the choices placed in front of us was comforting to minimize this. After the match Lena remained in contact and does what she says she will do. Yet another quality that is rare to find. Christopher and Nicole.

When my older son was so riddled with anxiety one day he refused to get out of the car at drop-off I knew I had to spend some time in the classrooms to see first-hand what was going on. Up until this point we had heard stories from the kids, were suspicious of the lack of work being done, and had already had a meeting with the headmaster over a separate safety issue that was going on at school. What I found when I visited the classrooms was virtually no academic work being done, the core components of a Montessori program not being delivered, and a hazardously frigid cold building. HAZARDOUS SCHOOL BUILDING. At $17k+ tuition, you'd think a school would have basic necessities like heat. I've attached a photo of the thermostat from inside my 2nd graders classroom on the day we pulled him out of this place. 52 degrees in the 3rd week of October. I was told it was "too early" to turn on the heat. See attached violation from the City of Pontiac building department for no heat and not maintaining a temperature of 68 degrees. This citation was a week after we left. Let that sink in that another week went by before they corrected the issue of freezing cold classrooms. FALSE CLAIMS TO BE A MONTESSORI PROGRAM. This school claims to be "fully accredited" and we were told (in writing) that they were a member of AMS (The American Montessori Society), yet when I verified their membership status (see attached letter from AMS) I found out they haven't even been members since 2020. NO INDIVIDUALIZED OR CHILD LED LEARNING (i.e. not Montessori). Kids had same lessons assigned. The Upper Elementary and Middle School are grouped together under the same lead teacher (we were not told this when we signed up). Montessori should have a 3 year age range, not 5. I observed my 4th grader and my 7th grader working on the same materials, and that work was way below even the 4th grade level. The teacher (Ms. Carey) admitted to giving my 7th grader the wrong math and science work for the previous 7 weeks. Ms. Carey admitted that our kids at 7 weeks into the program did not have the materials or the adult support to work on anything beyond what was setup for the classroom for the start of the school year. CHAOTIC STRESSFUL ENVIRONMENT. A Montessori learning environment is supposed to provide a peaceful and quiet environment where students can work uninterrupted for long periods of time. This environment was so chaotic and full of constant interruptions (including flying sharp objects being thrown across the room and other safety issues) that my kids were nervous wrecks. My older son's friend was hit in the face with a pair of scissors that someone threw. DOCUMENTED LEARNING LOSS. In the 7 weeks we attended this school, my kids went from having great grades and high scores on their academic testing from the end of the previous school year in Math, to failing the math placement tests for the school they attended last year. We now are paying for weekly private tutoring to get caught up. This is all well documented.
