I am in contact with the state and taking further action for the school filing a false claim on myself. The matter was not handled efficiently nor investigated just as the previous incident with my child and the teacher hitting her a month ago. These are very serious concerns and service failures on your company's behalf and instead of effectively investigating the matter you guys decided to cover up the matter and file false allegations against myself. Please note that this does not end here. I will be taking all necessary measures to assure that how my child was mishandled by your organization is brought to surface so that this doesn't continue to happen to other families. Have a great day!

My children have been coming here for over a year and I just love the communication that the teachers have with the parents. They have so many activities and family fun nights; everyone has fun on these nights, the children and the parents. My daughter who just recently turned three is learning how to write her name in her own, recognize the letters in her first and last name! I really really love how ALL the teachers work with the children. I went to work knowing my babies were and are safe! As a Staff.. I recently joined the BVLA team a couple months ago I can really say that your children are SAFE here! I was impressed! We have so much fun, from the time we enter til the time we leave! We want to make sure every single child feels welcome and safe! I truly love seeing the children with smiles on their faces everyday! I love working with my colleagues as well! We love working together and sharing ideas for our classrooms. Your baby (child) is safe here with us!

I am thrilled with this daycare facility…read more My daughter is a year old and Bright Beginner's Academy's toddler room begins with children 12 months and up. Before touring, I contacted the center's director, Kelly. She is quick with email and happy to answer any question you may have. After a string of emails, I scheduled an appointment to tour the daycare. I was thrilled to receive an email confirmation of the date and time of the tour (it indicated to me that they are not only on top of things, but also technologically-friendly) and my husband and I showed up for the tour. Rachel greeted us at the door and walked us through a day in the toddler room. The room is well lit, clean, and spacious. The toys looked new and even with children around, they were well organized. Rachel also explained an app to us called Brightwheel: it's a wonderful tool that gives you the feeling of a connection to your child all day long. Of course it's hard to leave your child anywhere, but all day long you receive updates: potty activity, meals, naps, pictures and videos. I cannot tell you the joy I felt when I saw my daughter playing outside with the other kids during her very first week. The teachers there are very sweet and they are wonderful with children. I cannot tell you what I sigh of relief I breathed after our first week here. My daughter is always in a good mood when she comes home and I truly feel like she's in good hands here.

If I could give a rating of 0 stars I would! That option is not allowed, so 1 star it is. My…read moregirlfriend gave verbal consent over 6 months ago for me to be able to pick up her now 4 year old daughter from "Children of the Earth". She asked that I be put on the pick up list. Thinking that everything was fine, I attempted to pick up the child on 3/15/2022 but not before calling first to make sure she was even there because she had spent a few days with her "grandmother". My girlfriend has full custody of her daughter and they both live with me. Grandma feels like I'm taking away her time with the child and has had many conflicting arguments with me in the past for no legitimate reason. Ms. Alejandra answered my call stating that the child was in fact at school and that she would be calling the grandmother to inform her that I called. I politely stated that there's no need for that since the biological mother is the one who told me to pick her up. Ms. Alejandra then stated that she had a lengthy conversation the day before with the grandmother and that everything must be reported to her in regards to the child. I asked her if there was an order by a judge giving her this power and that's when Ms. Alejandra said I was giving attitude and that she would be calling the police. I asked what crime did she suspect me of committing to even mention the police and she hung up on me. I proceeded to the school to pick up the child like the biological mother had told me to do so. I recorded my vehicle entering the parking lot, as well as myself entering the school. Ms. Alejandra was very rude and told me I had to exit the building and that she had called the police. After exiting the building I stopped recording and proceeded to call the police as well. I began recording once police personnel arrived. She insisted on speaking to the officer before me. I explained to the officer that the school was given verbal consent by the biological mother of the child months ago stating I could drop the child off and pick her up. I never had an issues until this day. Ms. Alejandra did say that the biological mother did give verbal consent before. I asked when was it revoked and by whom. No answer. Of course the grandmother and her new husband arrived on scene and immediately removed the child from the school and put her inside one of their vehicles since they decided to drive in separate vehicles. The husband was getting very nasty with me saying that he wants me to give him the child's belongings and that why was I even trying to pick up the child from the school because she's not biologically mine. The grandmother then went up to the officer stating that she's on the pick up list ONLY and that I was not allowed to pick up the child. Ms. Alejandra came back up to the officer with a book showing him some sort of document that didn't have my name on it to pick up the child. Apparently they never added me as a person who could pick up this child, even though I had already been doing so for over 6 months with no issues! The grandmother was yelling at me to shut up and telling me I was a nobody, and was just very verbally abusive. The husband of the grandmother got really close to me wanting to cause physical harm to where the officer had to ask him to step away from where I was standing. And yet that's the type of person this school was willing to allow this child to leave with? I had not said one bad word to these people nor did I ever raise my voice. Videos will be uploaded to YouTube!

We also learned that only a minimal amount of the staff were state certified (2). The technology usage for the students was sub par (classroom had only 1 small computer with 30 students)!! We were also very dissatisfied with the lack of structure that was provided in the classrooms! Students were allowed to play constantly which unfortunately, has made it extremely difficult to a student transitioning to another school that does focus on education! The lack of unpreparedness that my child now has is extremely alarming!! Please do your research when looking for a child care center for your child! If you are just looking for a babysitting service, then this may work for you. However, if you are looking for a child care center that will prepare your child for the next level educationally, avoid this place!!
