Great facilities, staff and caretakers. I am a working mom and although I was originally working…read moreremotely, my work setup changed abruptly forcing me to find a daycare to help my family. I was referred to Strong Start and so happy I did! My daughter loves going to daycare and her teachers/caretakers have been great with her, helping her in her day-by-day development and creating a great environment for her to spend her time with her friends. We totally recommend Strong Start!

Currently I'm on my 4-year old's 3rd year at Strong Start, I find it hard to believe that any…read moreparent could find a better school for their child. I say this considering Quality: - of the facility - classroom environment - cameras in every class room - app to get daily reports on your child's activities - the customized daily schedules made for children @ all ages. Your child will become a problem solver and a, 'mini know it all.' I consider Strong Start not as a DAY CARE, this is much better a School with a Camp environment, that your child would love.

We joined the Honey Bear Family in 2017, referred by a trusted family friend - and we've been so…read moregrateful. More than four years later, both of our children are now part of the program (Preschool and Infant/Toddler) and love it there! One of the crucial elements we sought when reviewing childcare options was safety - and I appreciate the care and attention implemented to make sure all students are well protected at all times. Our children feel loved for and cared for by the amazing staff! Their school readiness curriculum is wonderful, taking the time to teach students the essential skills to prepare them for Kindergarten - and beyond. Hands-on programs, engaging activities and events bring their curriculum to life - and we look forward to hearing about everything our children did each day! Highly recommend HB!

My child, who is now 2 years old, has been coming to Honey Bear since she was 6 months old. She has…read morebuilt such a strong connection with all her teachers. They taught her how to communicate when she was very young with sign language and now, she is blossoming with her language skills. She was required to wear a helmet at school and was in physical therapy prior to starting Honey Bear. After much collaboration with her physical therapist and teaching staff, Infant and Toddler teachers adapted to her needs and helped her graduate from the helmet and physical therapy. As a staff member who works at Honey Bear, I have not only seen my child grow, but I have seen many other children grow through the love and compassion of qualified teachers and staff, who make us feel like a family.

It's the perfect combination of a family oriented facility (everyone knows his name, our names, and cares deeply for him) and a highly functioning, professional place. They are EXCELLENT communicators- unbelievably responsive and show the utmost quality of care for our most important little guy. There are always things happening at BB! From themed days, special events, to the incredible lessons the teachers put together... the kids are busy. And we get awesome pictures of all the things they're doing during the day. It really feels like a village, and we feel truly lucky to have our son grow up there, and plan to enroll our new baby there in the fall. As a parent, you truly worry about a million things... and dropping our kid off at BB truly makes it feel like one less thing to worry about.

We were in Honey Tree from February to June, 3 days a week schedule. Everything was fine until two weeks before September I asked for curtain days a week (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday - 3 days in a raw) - and Kaia responded that she will see what they can do. No sign of trouble yet. Week later, on August 26th (a 5 days before September) I reached out again to confirm the days cuz we were also figuring out a schedule for "Birth to three" program (visits in school for speech therapy) and I found out that we don't have a spot in class because payment didn't go through. What!? Why I wasn't informed? Why nobody called and asked "Hey , are you guys still want to go to our place?" Or hey guys - try another card, or pay manually don't wait till Autopay (Which was set for Aug 27th!) Card was on file the WHOLE TIME! How could this happen? We are not new customers, they had both of our contacts to reach out and ask if we still need a spot?! Or if they found someone else who goes full week (5 days schedule) - the right thing will be is to inform us about them,at least 2 weeks before school starts, Or ask if we want to go full time too?! It was very unprofessional and irresponsible ! I called all possible schools around and of course they are all fully booked or don't have Two's program. Very disappointed! You should work on stuff training, management are very week if this simple situation was handled in the worst possible way!

I never write reviews, but childcare is one of the most important decisions a parent can make. My…read moreson went here for 2 and a half years, so it wasn't all bad. They have a handful of amazing teachers but they are few and far between. I'm sure I will be met with a condescending response to this review from the owner, but I come with receipts. I'm a very relaxed parent and I'm not asking for my son to have some kind of special treatment. What I am asking for is for my son to be treated with basic respect. When you bring up any situation, you are gaslit to believe you are a problematic, dramatic, and an unhinged parent that isn't pleased despite their "efforts." They have an app called "Watch Me Grow" and it's on this app I witnessed a teacher kick my son's cot right by his head in an attempt to disconnect his cot from another cot. (Sept. 2022). I watched my son get hit in the face by another child(I get it, they are children), but what I don't get is why an incident report was never made, why no one told me what happened, and why I was the one that had to bring up what I saw. He came home with a bruise that night. The teacher assistant was too concerned with cutting up an art project and wasn't even paying attention to the children. When my child went to her, she wouldn't pick him up to even check to see if he was alright. When she did finally pick him up, she held him away from here body and then plopped him back down I guess he looked fine to her.(Oct. 2022) In Feb 2022, I watched every baby be handed a cupcake except my child for no apparent reason. It wasn't until a teacher that had grown fond of my son came in, saw he was the ONLY child without a cupcake, and she handed him one. I've called DCF in the past, and all HT did was move the teacher out of the room to a room with older kids where this teacher would go on to cause more problems with more children and families, but that's not my story to tell. The day before Thanksgiving 2023, my husband went to drop our son off. The same teacher assistant I had the issue with when he was injured was subbing in the room. She rolled her eyes when she saw my son. My husband picked up our child, and told them he didn't want him in the classroom with her because of her constant attitude. I'm not the only parent to talk about this TA's horrible attitude. I have heard it with my own ears, so I know I'm not crazy. Furthermore, my husband runs a business. I don't know any parent that would take their child back in an attempt to drop him off and go to work if there wasn't a problem. The owner called me within the hour and had already made up in her mind she didn't want my son back at daycare. She stated that "this was the 4th incident in 2 years, she felt like she couldn't make us happy, and the TA was crying." Every incident we have ever had was NOT made up out of thin air like the owner claims. She stated we are "looking for things to be wrong." I also don't know a parent that would keep their child at a daycare center to "look for something" to be wrong at the expense of their child. My son loved his actual teacher and TA, however this daycare hires family members and friends of family that already work there, so when a teacher is out sick they throw these people in their place. Fine by me, but at least make sure they like kids. I cannot tell you the amount of times I've walked in, and someone was on their phone. The owner went on to say she would be happy to help me find a new daycare, and refund me my money. When I asked her "are you kicking my son out of daycare?" she laughed and repeated she could refund me. Before we were even off the phone she took me off the cameras, and then 1 minute later I got a refund, followed by a text stated "they loved my son and she hoped I was happy at his new center." My child wasn't enrolled anywhere until March of 2024, so the day before Thanksgiving she left us with no daycare because of HER STAFF that SHE HIRED nasty attitude.Were also NOT the first family she's done this to, but again not my story to tell. I was also informed by a teacher that another teacher stated some very nasty things about my child. When I approached the manager about, I told her I wanted to discuss what was said, and I told her about the cupcake situation. When I brought the issue back up while she was kicking my child out of school months later she said she had never heard about the cupcake situation. Please document every issue like I did! Any time a situation occurs, the owner will tell you "the teacher bust into tears." Which indicates to me some of the staff have learned to cry to get out of the hot seat. The owner even tried to pin me against his teacher! We had situation where we noticed our son was in a corner in a high chair eating alone because he was smaller while the the bigger kids were on the other side of the room eating lunch. The teacher and I RESOLVED the issue and the manager threw it in my face as she was dismissing my child from school.
