I saw a one-star review, which made me feel shocked. As a responsible adult, I find your assessment unfair. A child's study cannot be entirely dependent on school. As a new immigrant, I am still studying in college and preparing to apply for graduate school. The improvement of children needs the cooperation of parents and schools. If you expect to spend a little money to let the child improve in all aspects, then I believe that all the children in the world are excellent. This is obviously not practical. This school deserves your trust. Especially Jessie, the Chinese teacher, has 20 years of Chinese teaching experience and is highly recommended. 我的孩子在这所学校已经三年了,语文的进步是有目共睹的。尤其是英语和数学,自从开始排在倒数第二之后,就一直在公立学校的班级里名列前茅。看到了一颗星的评论,让我觉得很震撼。作为一个负责任的成年人,我觉得你的评价有失公允。孩子的学习不能完全依赖学校。作为一个新移民,现在还在读大学,准备申请研究生。孩子的提高需要家长和学校的配合。如果你期望花一点小钱就能让孩子各方面都有所提高,那么我相信天下所有的孩子都是优秀的。这显然是不实际的。这所学校值得你的信任。特别是中文老师Jessie,有20年的中文教学经验,值得大力推荐。 说几句题外话: 还是那句话、你自己不行、就别老埋怨路不平,路不平、还是你人不行。自己都没办法通俗流利的进行英语演讲和对话、不能写一篇符合标准的英语论文、然后把孩子的教育问题归结于补课学校、总寄希望于你的孩子将来如何优秀、那你移民美国的目的和初衷又是什么呢?真的是自己飞不起来、还逼孩子"笨鸟先飞"。

I cannot say enough great things about Sport Social! As a mom to a child on the Autism spectrum,…read morethe large number of therapy and services recommended from the start of our journey years ago was overwhelming. My kiddo has had ABA therapy at multiple places, which worked out for a while, but then therapists kept quitting and back on the waitlist we go. It turned into a never-ending cycle and I was worried my child would be grown-up before we found another place. My son has been having ABA services at Sport Social for years now, and out of all the therapy he has had, they have made the most difference for my child. You see, they use sports, art, music, scooters, rock-climbing, games, social skills and more activities kiddos enjoy from the start. ABA principles are used in a fun and engaging atmosphere that goes beyond traditional therapy. Skills like resilience, regulation, and focus are used in a large facility with a basketball court, rock-wall, bounce house, music room, skatepark and more. They also focus on frindships and happiness which is also important. Thank you to Andrew for having such an amazing place, with the coolest people, where everyone feels included. It's so nice to meet other parents that are going through the same things too. My family is so grateful to Natalie, Cody, Jared, Uriah, Maria, Devon, Dawson, Brian and everyone who has made an impact on my son's life. If you find yourself in the same place as I have been, please consider Sport Social! - Love Collin and family :)

It was the perfect place for children to run around, play, and burn off some energy in a safe and fun environment. There were so many different activities to choose from--climbing, jumping, sports, and more--something for every interest and age group. The space was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed to keep kids engaged and moving. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the whole place had a very welcoming, upbeat vibe. Overall, it was an awesome experience, and we're already looking forward to our next visit

My son has been going to children's learning adventures since he was 1 years old and I've seen so…read moremuch progress in him! He was fully potty trained before he was 2, he talks so much and he is able to have a full conversation with us. Ms. Jessica and Ms. Georgette are my sons teachers and they are amazing. They read books to the kids, they have them on a routine and they do arts and crafts with them too! My son loves going there and I love how each and every staff member knows my son and greets him everyday as they do to all the other kids! Ms. Tee a.k.a Aunty Tee is so great with my son sometimes he never wants to go to class and just wants to sit up front listen to music, eat snacks and talk stories.

They're always greeting parents and the kids, who they all know by name, as we come in. We often stay a few minutes after dropping off our kids to chat with the front and always have really great interactions. They're all very kind and helpful, especially Kelsey, the executive director! She's so bubbly and incredibly understanding/helpful with anything you need as long as you communicate. Between the 3 of my kids we've met/interacted with almost every teacher/staff member and they have all been amazing. Mr. Chris and Ms. Ari have been really attentive to my most sensitive kid, and always keep us updated with anything we need to know which I really appreciate. My kids feel very comfortable here, they love their teachers, the staff and their friends! I know my kids are safe and cared for and couldn't recommend CLA enough!

We toured many expensive preschools before starting here and the small classes are so, so unique. It's hard to get a spot (so I was hesitant to post a review) but we love it there and I had to give Mrs. King and Ms. I major props for dealing with my very energetic girl. This place is fantastic and we're praying we can get a Pre-K spot next year! Thank you guys for everything you do!

Every day my little guy came home with projects GALORE. The Science camp was especially cute - they did a Mentos volcano and tons of fun experiments like determining textures, mixing paint colors to create new....all great learning tools for these little ones. During music camp they made drums from old coffee containers, bean shakers, plate tambourines and much more. A couple things holding me back from a 5 star are the cramped space during pickup and drop off. The outdoor play area is lackluster for the little ones, but very secure - most importantly. The instructors are sometimes different from day to day, which throws us off a bit. I was impressed by their creativity in the curriculum for the little ones. The instructors were very caring and skilled at working with the age group. They really work on following instructions, lining up, listening skills, etc... so we'll be going back!

I started an infant and 4yr old here about 6months ago they are currently enrolled and an ASD 6yr…read moreold child for about a week or 2 in the summer. First thing I would like to say that this school is always very clean and organized which I appreciate. The staff is friendly they greet you every morning. It appears they may vet their teachers well because for the most part they are all very sweet and caring with the exception of a few interesting personalities taking tones with the kids I personally don't like but nothing crazy. I especially would like to shout out a few teachers along the way Ms Yvonne who took care my Oldest daughter over the summer who had a difficult time transitioning. I even seen her get emotional when my daughter left for Elementary which really touched my heart she Has a lot of patience, she's sweet and she definitely has good control over her class. Mr Ronnie who is no longer there very nice fun teacher my 4yr old still asks about him and says that's her favorite teacher. However, Ms Cassandra and Ms Angel who are usually in my 1yr olds infant class room I absolutely love them they adore their babies. I can genuinely feel the love they have for all my children. At drop off my kids will run to hug them. They are always so sweet, and gentle they never seem to be overwhelmed or aggravated. I have never heard them raise their voices at the children, it's always love and for that I am so grateful for them. My baby will be moving up and will now be in their classroom much longer but just knowing they have teachers like these here makes me very happy and comfortable. I give this place a 4 star because some things are a little inconvenient such as the starting process for my daughter with ASD it was a long process that wasn't explained the best that caused some inconveniences. Kids get shuffled throughout classes I assume due to staffing at the end of the day and you'll have to go to one side to get your kids belongings and another to actually get your child, that's a headache but not the biggest deal although, things have gotten lost this way. My biggest issue here which is a huge deal and I am actually contemplating finding a new daycare for this issue alone is the food that is offered here. I have never in my 6 yrs of being a mother seen a daycare or any school that doesn't allow packed lunches for children. We are told because multiple children qualify for the assisted food program they make all the kids eat the same things. My Oldest daughter has a picky diet due to her ASD they literally would rather my kid to starve over making another jealous which to me I found insane. I almost get emotional seeing the food that is offered to my 4yr old A slice of cheese , hummus, A tortilla shell, and apricots. It's never a real meal that children would even find appetizing. Every day I pick up my daughter she is starving and she says she doesn't like the food. Now that my 1yr old is moving up I am worried that with these food options my girls's health will suffer over time being that they are there for 8hours not really eating much but scraps. Other than that I do speak highly of this school on the professionalism, overall care and cleanliness. If the food thing was changed Omg I wouldn't have anything bad to say it would be the best daycare in town by far. I appreciate what everyone does there to keep this place together.

My daughter started March 24, 2025 and her last day was June 10, 2025. So even though our time at…read morethe center was short, here's my review; I registered our 2.5 year old daughter at the Creative Kids Lakes locate in early March 2025. From the day I signed her up to the day she actually had her first day, there was roughly three weeks in between. On her first day, I go to drop her off to be told that my daughter wasn't fully put into the system yet. The woman (who was not the director, Yazmin Valdez) was very helpful and apologetic during that first morning. When I picked our daughter up later that first day, I was then provided all the first day paperwork from Yazmin yet was not given an explanation why she wasn't fully put into the system, even though I had registered her three weeks earlier. Not at all the first impression I wanted, but didn't make fuss about it. Miss Rena was my daughter's main teacher to start with but unfortunately for us she moved out of state (hope she's loving TX and doing well). Then my daughter's room got seasoned teacher Mrs. Jen. My daughter seemed to really like Mrs. Jen as did I. However, Mrs. Jen wasn't able to constantly the main teacher in my daughter's room all the time. With my daughter only going to days a week, I unfortunately wasn't able to get a real read on who were her new permanent teacher(s). On Tuesday of this week (June 10th) I dropped my daughter off just after 8:15 am and then picked her up just after 3:30 pm. Around 5:30 pm I placed my daughter in the bathtub to find bruise/markings on her (right were her back end and your butt begins) Upon seeing the bruise/markings, I immediately made my phone call to the center to speak with Yazmin. We understand that there is no way all the children in care can be watched every second of every minute they are there. We understand children fall all the time, especially on a water day. We understand children push each other. We understand children get hurt. But what my husband and I can't understand nor comprehend is how no staff member saw the bruise/markings in the 7 hours she was there. We understand that her classroom had an hour of water play from 9:30 am to 10:30 am and therefore the bruise/marking most likely happened then. Of course we would have liked to have been told by a staff member that they saw what happened. However, we understand the likelihood of the incident being seen is difficult given how many children are in her classroom. But again, how did no staff member see the bruise/markings at some point during her time there today? Based on the bruise/markings we think our daughter had to have cried or said she had a " boo-boo". Shouldn't a staff member have seen it and asked themselves "did this happen here or at home?" and then reach out to us? Shouldn't we have been informed something happened and now she has a bruise/markings? When a staff member changed her from her swimsuit to her clothes, shouldn't it have been seen? When changing her diaper, shouldn't it have been seen? If she was going potty on the toilet, how did no staff member see it? Do staff member place a child on the potty and then put a diaper back on them in the potty room instead of moving them to the changing table? We had already informed the center what our daughter's last day would be Tuesday, July 1st we have a long vacation in July and then our daughter is starting at Faith Lutheran in August. However, given the frustration, concern and honestly anger of the lack of any kind of a heads up lead us to the decision to go ahead and have our daughter's last day be that day, June 10, 2025. Since sending our email to Yazmin the night of the 10th, we have not been reached out to by anyone. Yesterday, mid morning my husband called the center to ask if my email had been received to which Yazmin did say she had gotten my email and was handling it. However, it seems extremely ridiculous that my husband had to be the one to reach out to be told that our email was received instead of Yazmin simply just replying to my email on the first place. So even though our overall our experience with this center was positive, we now are leaving this center behind us with a negative experience. Follow up as of 6/13: the customer service representative, Allison, would I spoke with twice now has been wonderful! As well as the district manager (can't remember her name) who I have spoken with a few times now has also been wonderful! We have all agreed that this situation would have been nothing had someone said something and communicate was clear & direct. It's unfortunate that it was our daughter, but hopefully something like this situation doesn't happen again.

Pulled my son out of this preschool and I would NOT recommend it…read more First off, the attitude from the front desk and director changed immediately after I enrolled. It felt unwelcoming and unprofessional from the start, but I tried to give it a chance. What I can't ignore is how they handled incidents with my child. I was asked to sign an incident report about my son hitting his lip a WEEK after it supposedly happened. Then this past Monday, another child BIT my son hard enough to leave a mark on his shoulder--and I wasn't told until Wednesday. No call the day it happened, no heads up--just delayed paperwork like it's no big deal. That is NOT okay. If something happens to my child, I expect to be told immediately. The fact that they didn't communicate that in real time is a huge red flag. Then they want to be strict about their policies when it benefits them. They called me to pick my son up at 9:30am saying he threw up, but gave me ZERO clear instructions about a 24-hour policy. The very next morning (Friday), I bring him in completely fine, he had absolutely no symptoms and had not thrown up at all since I picked him up the previous morning, and suddenly I'm being turned away at the door with attitude about "24 hours symptom free." Don't pick and choose when to follow policy. On top of that, my son has barely even been able to attend because he's been sick constantly since starting--including the flu and hand, foot, and mouth--and they still expect full payment AND a two-week notice after everything that's happened. Absolutely not. The lack of communication, delayed incident reporting, and rude front office staff made this an easy decision for me. Do better. Side note: the actual teachers in the classrooms have been great. This review is strictly about management and front desk staff, because that's where the issues are.

I agree with the one-star review regarding the director. In my personal experience, her…read moreinteractions with parents are inconsistent, especially before versus after a child enrolls. Communication and attitude seem to change once enrollment is complete, and conversations can feel like words are being twisted or misrepresented. The five-star review does not reflect what many parents have experienced and feels unusually biased. Based on conversations with other parents, these concerns are shared by many, even if not everyone feels comfortable posting publicly. While I respect that reviewers below had a positive experience, reviews are ultimately based on individual opinions and personal experiences. Not all families have the same interactions or outcomes. For some parents, having direct conversations does not feel like a safe or realistic option, especially when there is concern about retaliation or how it may impact their child. In those cases, leaving an honest review on Yelp may be the only way parents feel they can share feedback and highlight areas for improvement. These reviews are not meant to be inappropriate or harmful, but rather a way for parents to express their experiences and encourage accountability and growth from leadership.
