No organization to the point my son is stuck in a class I have continuously said he is not enriched in due to a rotation of teachers in it, and no updates throughout the day on my sons activities or curriculum. Was quoted the wrong tuition from the start and my concerns expressed along with other family members were ignored. If you want a school with a classroom that truly enriches kids without rotating teachers (I've seen up to 6 teachers in my sons class periodically) , active communication and detailed curriculum activities in the app they use..do not go here.

My worst nightmare happened at Tutor time in Norwalk when my daughter came home with unexplained…read moreinjuries. When she started, she would cry unconsolably when we dropped her off. When I watched her on their video app, I noticed she wouldn't be comforted. I also noticed that she spent hours in the crib despite only napping for an hour. The teacher was cold towards her and my daughter seemed specifically scared of this teacher. There was a lot of neglect and isolation. When she was picked up by this specific teacher, it was without empathy. I saw my daughter fearfully retreat into the crib when she was approached by her. I saw my daughter swat at her face and the teacher then took her to an area of the room that isn't visible on camera. When I tried to screenshot or record what I saw, it disables the app. I called the assistant director and spoke with him about my concerns. That evening when I went to bathe my daughter, I noticed multiple abrasions on her chest, armpit, back and puncture wounds on her hand. I sent an email to the assistant director and met with him and the site director in the morning. When I undressed my daughter and showed them her injuries they stated they felt they occurred by the teacher picking her up and being scratched by her long nails accidentally. There was never an incident report made. It's impossible that my daughter was scratched harmlessly with her clothes on leaving a total of 9 marks on her left side and two on her right hand. There is no way that my daughter scratched herself nor another child. I am a ER physician and their lack of concern is appalling. This was not an accident. I believe Tutor time is not naive to instances similar to what occurred with my daughter based on their response. They are not a safe facility for any child to attend and I definitely would warn anyone not to do so.

This daycare is probably the most caring and involved childcare center you could find in the area…read more My daughter started coming here when she was about 5 months old. As a first time mom, I was hesitant to start going back to work and to have her start going to daycare. Mrs. Luni and her wonderful staff set me at ease when I would leave her and I knew my daughter was not only in great hands but also learning and making new friends. I have watched my daughter transition into each classroom as she got older and adjust to her new teachers. Each staff member has always been attentive and have gone above and beyond to let me know how my little girl is doing while I'm at work. As a first time mom, it's so important that you trust the people that watch your children and also work with them to really provide your child all the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. I am so thankful to Creative Minds for being a pivotal piece in my daughter's development and for working with my crazy-obsessive mom requests ( "How much did she eat?" " Did she sleep okay?"). I remember for my daughter's second birthday, Melissa, the assistant director, let my daughters father and I use their break room during my daughter's naptime to start wrapping her gifts and preparing for her birthday party at the school. They even offered to help us and took pictures of the party for us. I have very few regrets in life and one of them was taking my daughter out of the school for a short period of time. When I moved to Westport I had taken my daughter out and placed her in Pumpkin Preschool of Westport. After three months, we came right back to Creative Minds because of how unhappy my daughter was in that horrible school. ( Please do not send your kids to the Pumpkin Preschool of Westport!! they care more about their money than they do about your child's well-being and care). I know better now than to ever make this mistake again. As soon as my daughter started going back to Creative Minds, it was as if she never left. She was smiling again, she remembered the friends she started with in the infant classroom, and we got to work with Luni and her wonderful staff again! Grateful is an understatement for what I feel about everything the daycare has done for my family and I. They have taught me on a daily basis how to be a better mother and to be the best mother I can be to my little girl. There are such wonderful daycares in the Fairfield County area and I'm sure that some of them may do some of the things that Creative Minds will do but if you want a extraordinary care, a daycare you can look at as an extended family for your child's most important years, Creative Minds is it. -Cece

There are a lot of really great reasons to recommend CCC. There are also some places I think they could improve. The best thing about CCC is the staff. My son was in the twoddlers room mostly with Mary Kate and Florence and he received wonderful care. They do projects and play. They bring the kids outside as often as possible. They really care for the kids and you can feel it upon entering the room. I can't say enough good things about all the teachers I met at CCC. CCC also has pretty good hours for working parents and flexibility in pick up and drop off times. This is the thing that I appreciated most about the Farm. My son was always with a teacher he knew and a few other kids to play with when I collected him. The size of The Farm is both a strength and a weakness. They're predictable and always staffed appropriately. Coming from a smaller daycare that is a real plus. However, the size also leads to broad rules to accommodate a lot of people. The meals are generic. The kids get special attention in their rooms but to the organization of CCC they are one of many. The weaknesses for me are in the price and in communication. We pay over $1500/month for three days a week of care. As with everything you get what you pay for and I think my son receives excellent care. He's always happy at pick-up. However, I would expect a push towards organic and local foods and nutrition instead of fish sticks and the like. They also ask parents to bring a 5 pm snack. That snack time causes issues at dinner time in our house. I try to provide a healthy snack and I would just say no but I don't want him to be the only kid without one. In regards to communication, CCC just needs to get with the digital age. The parents of their kids are from the digital generation. They still communicate mostly via paper and since my son isn't there Monday or Friday, we don't get our sheet until Tuesday morning. Then I'm scrambling to purchase a t-shirt they requested be brought in or something trivial. They could just email or text the classroom parents. They send an email with a daily roundup, that would be a great opportunity. Sorry for the lengthy review but I know when I'm looking for childcare, it's so helpful to hear from other parents.
