A Truly Special Daycare - A Blessing for Our Family…read more Our two children (ages 2 and 4) have been attending Mrs. Kiza's daycare for some time now, and we can honestly say she has been a true blessing to our family. From the moment we met her, it was clear how deeply she cares for each child. Our son began with limited speech, and within just a few months under Mrs. Kiza's care and encouragement, he was speaking with confidence. Our daughter has flourished as well--family and friends are constantly amazed by her vocabulary and how expressive she is for her age. One of the biggest signs of how much our kids love being there? The daily struggle at pickup time! They never want to leave, often kicking and screaming because they've had such a great day. Even at home, they can't stop talking about Mrs. Kiza and their experiences at daycare. Before finding her, we had tried a larger daycare, but it was a completely different experience. Our son was often sick and didn't receive the attention he needed--he was just a number. With Mrs. Kiza, every child is loved and seen. She even checks in after hours or when the kids miss a day to make sure they're doing okay. That kind of care and thoughtfulness is rare. As a mom with high anxiety, it means the world to me to have someone I trust so completely. Mrs. Kiza puts my mind at ease every day. If your kids don't want to leave at pickup time, that's the best sign that something truly special is happening. She is a Godsend and loves our babies just like we do.

My review is specifically being written for awareness towards current families also future families…read moreconsidering ABC Learning Childcare. Perspective: My children were enrolled a total of 9 months. During which time COVID policy did not allow for parents to shadow or understand how a typical day is run through free play, instruction and curriculum. This policy had always upset me considering my oldest is 2 and youngest 5+ months during the time of enrollment. I will separate my personal opinion and a more constructive business oriented review to ensure as much transparency as possible. Personal Review: Specific to the general well being and care for my children, Mrs. Kiza treated my daughters with love respect. Business Review: For the first initial 3-4 months I did not worry about the health and safety of my children. However it was not until about the 4 month mark when things started to change. We were notified about my youngest daughter having sweaty palms - to which Mrs. Kiza inferred it is related to a heart condition and that we should have her checked by her pediatrician. In my opinion, this should never have been said let alone warranted. It's not like she is a doctor. Another setback seemed to be a repetitive theme of negativity when mom and dad were picking up children from school and Mrs. Kiza seemed to focus on bad behaviors rather then providing even some small wins throughout the day. It just seemed negative. We understand that the toddler stage is rough, and I'm not naive to think my kids are any different. However, small wins and positivity can go much further then focusing on the negatives. I was also highly discouraged when I discovered much older children were also present and parents were not given awareness or notified on the possibility of older and younger children being social with one another. My perspective for this is that 5-6grader (boys) should not be near a two year old or younger for that matter. We were told that the two co-horts were separated, however I will never know for certain. Lastly, and most importantly, for which I'm writing this review; ABC Learning is in breach of contract. At anytime, current parents while thinking they have childcare service secured, could be terminated at a moments notice. We were given 10 days notice that we were being asked to find alternative means of childcare. We asked if it was health related or behavioral and we were told that it was neither. Therefore, this was a PERSONAL decision made by Mrs. Kiza which affected my family, and as a result the need to write my review. I hope to bring awareness for the other families to consider since red flags like this is important to understand context especially when children are being displaced and impacted. Please consider this as an for example for potential families looking to explore childcare services provided by ABC Childcare.

They are compassionate, caring, and nurturing. All the qualities you want in someone caring for your child! The outdoor playground and indoor activities for the children are better than any preschool in town! Ms. Raylene's craft projects for the children and rotating themes for learning are outstanding! Our daughter learned so much! I highly recommend Ms. Raylene and Ms. Chris for preschool and childcare!

My son has been going here for almost a year now and unfortunately we are moving out of state. We are devastated to pull him from Annie's care as she has become a huge part of our life. He has grown so much in the year he has attended. His confidence, communication and overall development has improved leaps and bounds. He knows all of his letters, colors, can form complete sentences and has the best manners due to the time and devotion from Annie.

We have been to different daycares in the past and there is just no comparison. Other places I've been to are ran like businesses with no personal touch just 9 to 5 workers who honestly didn't care about my kids. Teddy's Daycare has been extremely consistent. The staff here, Ms. Iris and Mr. Daniel, are so loving that in a short time they become family. They communicate with me CONSTANTLY. Allowing me to know the progress of my children, from learning their A B C's, to how they socialize with other kids, to the goofy things that they do. Even while I'm at work they have an app where they upload pictures and videos so you know how their day is going. They are extremely personal and provide attentive care in an active learning environment. From gardening, to petting zoos, to water play during the hot summer days, options for music lessons, the list is endless. They even provide a "Date Night" for the parents where they watch your kids...for FREE so my wife and I can enjoy a nice dinner or movie with just the 2 of us every once in awhile. I mean, what daycare does that? We just had our 3rd child and we are looking forward to the day he will become a member of Teddy's Daycare family. Thank you guys for ALL that you do for us!

It wasn't easy finding a place that had the warmth of a child care yet still had a system similar to school. I didn't just want my children to be watched. I wanted them to learn, have many other kids to play with, have a variety of activities, and follow a schedule everyday so they can be acclimated and be ready for kindergarten. And on top of all that they open waaay earlier than the average child care. They even use an app that keeps you informed the entire day, with pictures. I loved this place so much I drove 22 min each way everyday even though there were many other daycares nearby. Sadly now that my older kid is starting school, the separate drops in the opposite direction and one being 22 min away just felt like a little too much for every morning so I had to say goodbye. I will always be grateful both my children had such a wonderful experience for their first launch into a learning environment. Ms Orzine really set them up for success. Thank you so much for everything you've done and please take care Ms Orzine.

We started our daughter here earlier this year and we have been so thankful for the Pathways team…read more They have made the transition from going to an at home nanny care to early preschool very enjoyable. We were very worried, as our daughter was used to being at home and having 1:1 care. Pathways has done an excellent job communicating with us throughout the day, sending us photos, they update us on what she's doing and eating- a dream for a helicopter parent like myself! They have helped our daughter grow in making friends and assisting with potty training, and we have noticed big improvements in her speech in just a few months. Highly recommend if you are looking for a tight knit community feel. You can see that they care for the children like their own.

I could not have asked for a better daycare they were a huge blessing. If I could have packed them up and moved them with me I would have.

Montiel Childcare is a wonderful, in-home daycare, and I can't recommend Mrs. Rosa enough…read more My child started there at 2 years old with a language development delay (less than 20 words/utterances). After a year, my child is speaking in 2-3 word sentences, picking up new words daily, and is even learning Spanish with Mrs. Rosa! My child looks forward to going every single day, and he has made great friends there. He loves Mrs. Rosa's cooking (she provides breakfast, snacks, and lunch for full time kiddos!) and all of the fun activities she plans for them each day. Mrs. Rosa brings these kids into her home and makes them feel like family. She celebrates each of my child's milestones with us, and always is encouraging his development in new ways. If my child is out sick, she always checks in to see how he is doing, even after hours. It's clear that teaching and caring for young children is her calling. This really has become a second home for him, and we are so grateful to have her in our lives!!
