My son has been in the professional and tender care of Lake Cities Montessori for nearly two years!…read moreHe started in the infant program at nine months of age after having a private in-home nanny. His caregiver in the infant room sent me photos almost every day as I adjusted to this new routine. Although that particular teacher is no longer with the organization, she is still in touch with my family--a testament to the caliber of people employed by Lake Cities. My son is now in the toddler program, and nearly 3. I've enjoyed watching him blossom under the loving tutelage of this school. We are incredibly satisfied with the staff and facilities. It is a smaller organization that can truly take an individualized approach with each child. I am grateful to have found such a wonderful program for my son.

This is my first review but after reading the food allergy warning below, I felt compelled to…read morecomment. Flamingo island could not be more committed to children suffering from food allergies. My child suffered from a debilitating disease that made him allergic to almost every single food, and Mrs. K and her staff could not have been more accommodating. To say they went "above and beyond" would be an understatement. They provided my child with a "special" table that was just his and made a big deal about his "special" food to make him feel important and not like an outcast. They've been not only accommodating, but instrumental to his his health and well being as the level of care and compassion they've shown my son has been unparalleled. Not only that, but he has improved significantly in his education since the daycare he was in previously. He came home singing ZYX instead of ABC at three! The campus is clean, SO cute and fun, welcoming and warm. They have fantastic events involving friends and family. I feel so lucky that we found FI when we moved to richardson. It really is a gem. I could not say enough good things.

Flamingo School Is a local family run preschool, since 2012…read more Owner is a medical staff and she is there teaching children as well, I feeling safe to put my daughter there. I found this school has been rated best school in Dallas and Richardson for times. My daughter enjoyed learning and playing there, so I'm able to go to my job and don't feel any hassle. Teachers are so amazing with kids, my daughter loved the school. One thing I hear from owner, this school building is Richardson City assigned as tornado shelter. This is so amazing to me, I can't find any other school have this quality building, as I said I feel safe to have my daughter in Flamingo School, for many reasons. I'm very thankful that my friend introduced me Flamingo School for my daughter. We all loved Flamingo School, I'm strong recommend Flamingo School for all parents. Thanks Flamingo School, we love you

Ronda "Nana" is wonderful with kids and we trust her implicitly with our 18 month old daughter. She loves going to see Nana and sometimes she even calls out for her when she is at home like she misses her. Nana always has art projects and other educational projects for the kids and my daughter always comes home without a drop of paint or anything on her! She is so good, that we have actually changed our mind about moving from where we live so our daughter can go to her until she starts school. It was difficult for us to have children, so trusting someone to care for our precious girl was something I thought would be very hard, but we feel very lucky and blessed to have found her! I couldn't recommend anyone more!

A Great Center With A Family Atmosphere…read more This center has been a godsend for my family. My youngest son (8) has autism and it is very difficult to find centers with staff who are equipped to handle children with special needs. The have so much patience for him and show him so much love. The owners and director are friendly, approachable, and do their best to help you in any way that they can. If you are looking for quality childcare, whether you have a neurotypical child or not, I would most definitely recommend utilizing them!

It was worth waiting for them to be available for my son. Teachers were very supportive, gave us suggestions and helped our sons development. The office staff knew our cars so they called our son as soon as I turn into the driveway and he was ready to come out when we park the car, we didn't wait to pick up our son. We enjoyed attending every events like the open school, grandparents day, and Christmas, not only to see my son but others growth. What we liked was their menu too, they had fish day. They care what nutrients to give children too. We were sad to leave this school.

My…read more2-year-old has come home with more unexplained injuries in the last few weeks than in our entire two years here. These wounds are often not treated properly, and there have been multiple times where no incident report was filed -- and neither my husband nor I were informed by staff. The assistant director, Vanessa Ortiz, has extremely poor communication skills. It often takes more than a full school day to get a response to emails about serious issues like injuries. When we've tried to address concerns in person, we're met with excuses, not answers -- and certainly no sense of urgency. Also, if you have an issue and ask for the teacher's names (since we don't know their names due to so much turn over), don't expect to get them without the director reaching higher above her and then telling you to reach out to the area or regional director :) Shockingly, some teachers have even stepped in during conversations with other staff and *yelled* at us while trying to defend one another. The stories we're told rarely add up, and it feels like there's a serious lack of transparency and accountability. Supervision in the classrooms is clearly lacking, and poor communication seems to be used as a cover-up rather than a fix. There has also been an alarming amount of turnover among staff and students in just the last two months alone. That said, I want to give a huge shoutout to Mrs. Margie, Mrs. Wanda, and Ms. Jasmine. These amazing ladies are the only reason we're waiting until summer to pull our son. We truly appreciate the love and care you show our baby -- thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
