They have a quality learning experience for aftercare and during summer programs. They focus on the education and development of young children. The employees keep you informed of upcoming events and changes. My daughter loves the staff and aftercare program along with the summer camp. This childcare facility has kept pricing affordable and below cost compared to most places. Also , they provide snacks and lunches at no additional cost . I've switched my daughter 3 times before I was referred to Child's Haven . You won't find another facility nearby that can match all these qualities and where both the parents and child love it. Thank you for providing exceptional services and a remarkable staff. Ms. Trenker and staff we appreciate all you do ..

I would not recommend Child's Haven Daycare in Valrico based on our experience. My daughter never…read moreenjoyed going and often dreaded drop-off. She constantly had to defend herself from bullies, which left her anxious and withdrawn. During this time, she developed night terrors and behavior issues she had never experienced before. The atmosphere did not feel nurturing. Some teachers seemed disengaged, and my daughter was even fearful of certain staff members. On one occasion, while we were at the pool next door, a regular visitor mentioned that they frequently heard teachers yelling at children inappropriately. That was very unsettling to hear as a parent. The facility itself also felt lacking--children don't have adequate cubby space, and there are odd, inconsistent rules that don't make sense. The front office staff were often dismissive and unapproachable, which made communication very frustrating. I regret not removing my daughter sooner. Once we switched her to a different daycare, all of her issues disappeared within weeks--she began sleeping through the night again, her behavior improved, and she was once more her happy, confident self. Every child deserves to feel safe, cared for, and supported at daycare. Unfortunately, that was not our experience at Child's Haven.

I can't say enough good things about Bright Beginnings. My wife and I kept our son home until he…read morewas two, so when we were ready to put him in daycare it was extremely hard to let go. We tried two different daycares before choosing BB based on recommendations from others. We gave the first two daycares 2 weeks each. But when our son was still crying every morning we dropped him off, we moved on. Not to mention the lack of security, compassion from the teachers, and bad aura in general from the facilities. Within two days of going to Bright Beginnings, our son no longer cried when we dropped him off. Within a week, we were lucky to get a goodbye hug from him. He couldn't wait to play with his new friends and teachers!!! And the teachers have all been wonderful. Very personal, compassionate, and genuine. The facility is very clean and secure. There is ALWAYS someone at the front desk monitoring people coming in and out. The rooms are HUGE compared to other daycares and full of toys. Our son is always coming home with arts and crafts he created that week. They have a great playground in the back that is better than most city parks. Jenna, the owner, is very involved with the daycare, is great with the children, and has always taken care of any issues and concerns we've had. Our family is moving in two weeks and I wish we could take BB with us!!! It honestly feels like we are leaving family behind. Thanks to everyone at BB for taking care of our son and giving us piece of mind that he is in good hands.

As soon as my kids started they had major confusion with my children's ages. And forcing my twin 2yr olds to be potty trained bc they thought they were 3yr old When they just had turned 2 right when they started. 1st issue second issue they said my kids had behavioral issues and trying to make it seem like me and my support system didn't know how to discipline my kids. Mind you at home and other peoples homes my kids don't act out. I explained to them how I discipline at home which obviously they have to follow certain rules and things which is understandable to discipline. Never have I ever heard of a toddler getting suspended from a daycare. Nope 2 of my kids did! Almost weekly and I finally got tired of signing incident reports, and asked for video footage. 1 of the reports I signed stated a toy was snatched out of my kids hand which obviously a trigger for a kid so young, so his reaction was to bite. Yes my kid is wrong I understand that completely I asked if they were sat down to explain do we not snatch and bite, no one could answer the question. Then another day comes by and he get In trouble again, for what the report stated was a similar incident. I sign it and don't ask questions bc I was so over it I was looking for other daycares. I walk in the next day to drop off my kids at the daycare and the director tells me that my 2yr old could not come back after today bc he's expelled. However no one told me anything the day before when I signed the paper and it was not on the paperwork either. When I asked why that is when the director proceeded to tell me did I read the incident form I told her yes it's similar to a situation that just happened a few weeks before when she was not there. she then proceeded to tell me that she reviewed the footage and told me a whole different story then from what I signed On the report. So I told her that and stated then why have me sign a report that is not accurate bc you guys seem to not be able to get your story straight. mind You this is my 2nd child getting suspended from this facility for said behavior issues And they knew I was looking for another daycare. from the beginning I paid full price as my school readiness was not transferred yet to their facility which is ok bc they back pay so I would have a credit which I confirmed with the owner. My credit was over $800 and they still tried to get me to pay full price. When I asked about it and mentioned. It that is when the owner decided she would look into my account and seen I had a credit but then tried to say I had a lower credit then $800 which I matched everything up and corrected her. Also when registering my children I provided all paperwork up to date... let me tell you they lost every piece of paperwork provided for all but 1 kid. Now why if im registering 3 kids would I only provide for 1. they always want doctors notes even if the kid misses 1 day. Like what a regular school doesn't even do this. lol. Also they tried to get extra money from school readiness and tried saying my kids is last day was a week after they were expelled. I had to call school readiness to make them aware so the new school could get paid properly.
