From the friendly and engaging teachers to the director Corrin. The teachers are always engaged with the kids coming up with different educational activities. The director, Corrin, is so friendly and helpful. She has always has a welcoming smile on her face and goes above and beyond to make sure the kids are clean, happy, and having fun at all times! The theme days and the share days are my kids' favorite days! 100/10 recommend to any and everyone!

Our daughter has been attending Discovery Tree in Elk Grove for just over two years now. I know I…read morewanted her in a child care to help her with socialization, friendship building, language development, and the education I knew she could get from her peers and teachers. We were nervous to start, especially after coming out of lock down, but let me tell you how the staff put my head (and heart) at ease. The center has become a second home to our daughter. Our daughter has learned shapes, letters, numbers, and so much more. There are times where she'll say something and I realize the value that Discovery has beyond an inviting and playful environment. One day she came up to me and spelled her name - something I hadn't even thought about yet! Every school day she looks forward to going to see her friends and her teachers. They have made such a huge impact on her life from the start - when she was scared her first time away from her parents, to now as she learns to navigate her young life. The smile on her face when she's greeted every morning could light up the room. The teachers at this school have grown into becoming my village and there are no words into the gratitude I have toward them. If you're thinking about taking the plunge then I highly recommend scheduling a tour and seeing what they have to offer.

They did a great job of not overloading us (parents) with bad news, and only offered suggestions when asked. Sabrina, the director, always provided good news to go along with bad. I always appreciated this, because, even if it was a stressful situation, she presented it in a way that ended hopeful and positive. I am glad we decided to enroll our child at Golden Valley.

There's so many other centers in Elk Grove (that take child action) please don't need to settle for this place. Sara the owner will gaslight your child before they take anything serious other than protecting her business. In it for the money, not for kids. Said my son was a liar for communicating the way his four year old brain knows how. She shouldn't be involved in childcare. She's a business owner & that's it, she needs to be in another industry. In the video where my son got hurt, an employee walks past as my son holds his eye and somehow no one noticed. No one investigated camera footage or filed injury reports or told his dad or me until I said something the next day (even though his eye was visibly red.) My son crawled towards a kid who accidentally poked his eye. Sara the owner said either my son poked himself or this other child did, because my son fast crawled towards him to headbutt him. My son crawled normally towards him and was clearly not trying to headbutt him, he was acting as a four year old would, going up to someone to play. His eye got poked and she was turning it around on my son as if it's his fault, rather than being a mature adult. He is four years old. The owner Sara said all these kids are like her kids, but she spelt my sons name wrong & I have never seen her. She said think about the other child and his mom, what about my son- the one who got hurt? No one said they were sorry my son got hurt or hoped he was okay. She disenrolled my son without ever asking about my sons eye. She does not care about a child more than her business. During the time he went there my son told me that he plugs chargers in the wall and that his teacher told him he will be fat if he doesn't workout. Other situations would happen and I would ask about them, not accuse. I would tell them what my son would tell me and ask about it. Every time I'd be told that "they didn't see or hear anything like that happen." Somehow no one sees or hears anything here. It's clearly a communication problem and/or not paying attention. I got attitude from his teacher before too, and when I brought it up it was just denied.

I couldn't believe my eyes and ears each time I walked into there. I have an infant so he couldn't speak for himself and that was the hardest part -- leaving him in someone's else's care. I decided to move my kids right away. We went with Genius Kids and I am so glad we did! The workers are so caring. My daughter, who is 4 speaks highly of every single person. She learned so much from being there! Skills in her daily life to her alphabets and public speaking! She has became much more confident! They keep me updated with pictures constantly through the day so it puts my heart at ease while I'm working. Ms Shana is very responsive!

She was Full time in the infants classroom. Genius kids exceeded any expectations I had! I am a mom of 3 and have been through many daycares and preschool facilities and there is no match to the love and kindness ms. Heather and the infant classroom teachers: Ms Lisa, Ms Rikia, Ms, Koko, and Ms Sharifa and every other teacher I encountered there. I didn't cry when I dropped her off but I did on her last day. These teachers took exceptional care and really helped my daughter grow so much in 6 months. The app they use lets you see pics and videos and all feedings/naps and keeps you updated throughout the day which was always nice when my mom guilt kicked in and I'd check and she was having the time of her life with her teachers and friends. The only reason we left was because my mom is no longer working and now able to watch her. We would choose Genius Kids again in a heartbeat. Thank you staff for all your kindness and love you gave to my daughter

At the time of enrollment, I was told there would be 2 teachers per classroom, which there rarely was. This led to my chid coming home with multiple scratches on their face without any explanation from the staff as to how they got there. The director of the facility proceeded to tell me that I should talk to the teacher as she was too busy and had too many classroom to look after. She also went on to state she had received 5 complaints just in that one day and it was impossible for her to be in multiple places at one time. I found this response to be highly inappropriate and unprofessional. I immediately dis-enrolled my child and filed a formal complaint. I would not recommend this Childtime to anyone.

Both of my children have attended and my cousins kids too, and I would recommend this place to anyone.

Harvest House Daycare, led by Ms. Sylvia with the loving support of Ms. Joan and Papa, is truly a…read morehidden gem. From the moment you see the space, you can feel the difference -- her home and large backyard offer room for children to move, play, and grow in a calm, nurturing environment. It feels like family, not a crowded commercial center. The children are well cared for, fed fresh organic vegetables and even home-grown fruits, and they come home happy, clean, and secure every day. What truly sets Harvest House apart is the focus on early learning, especially reading and math. Ms. Sylvia follows an old-school, pen-and-paper approach that emphasizes literacy, numbers, and repetition over constant arts and crafts. I've had two daughters here -- my first (Delaney) attended from age 3 to 5, and my second (Henley) started as a newborn at just 2 months old and is still with Ms. Sylvia now at age 5, entering kindergarten next year. My youngest has already surpassed the kindergarten curriculum: she knew sight words by age 2.5, began reading by 3.5, and now reads at a second-grade level. When my first daughter was born, I called Harvest House Daycare when she was six months old and there was no space available. At the time, I enrolled her in an expensive, brand-name private school believing the higher price would guarantee better care and education. I later learned that branding and cost do not equal quality. The structure, academic focus, and individualized attention at Harvest House far exceeded what we experienced elsewhere. We were incredibly fortunate to later secure a spot, and both of my daughters thrived here academically, socially, and emotionally. The price is absolutely worth it when you consider the long-term growth, confidence, and academic advantage your child gains. With reliable hours from 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., genuine care, and a strong academic foundation, Harvest House Daycare offers something rare -- a place where children are truly prepared for school and life, not just watched during the day.

Our family has been with Sylvia, John, and Joan since 2018. They have become a second family and…read moremade it so easy as parents to find a sense of peace knowing our kiddos are being well cared for. All of my children have been with them since they were infants (2 months & 5 months old). Their day to day is structured which helps create a routine for the kids and they know what to expect each day. The program includes breakfast, lunch, and snacks which are all nutritious and my kids love (I give credit for my kiddos being great eaters, they love veggies, to the balanced meals they receive). Even from infancy formula is provided if needed along with food plans outlined once solids are introduced. Once old enough they facilitate a preschool program, my two year old can hold a pencil correctly and does his worksheets daily. The early introduction to these skills continue on to help prepare for kindergarten. We decided to keep our kids at Harvest House until they started kindergarten, and credit the curriculum and dedication they set in place of reading, sight words, and math to setting them up for success. My 8 and 5 yr old progressed at different paces but both felt more confidence going into kindergarten. In the eight years we have been with them they haven't been closed outside the Holidays and Vacation days outlined at the beginning of the year, providing us working parents with the reliability and stability needed. Harvest House has been a blessing for our family creating a safe, caring, and structured program for our kids. My eight year old still wants to go back to ZaZa's and Papa's on her school breaks. Truly could not recommend Harvest House more as top notch child care provider. Ainsley, Hadley, Dalton, Doug and Kali
