We have struggled with various private schools, but nothing compares to Sagemont and what each and every teacher has provided. They devote themselves to the success of your child.

I can't think Sagemont enough what they have done for my son. Thank you, Sagemont and the entire staff. You have truly made a difference.

I am so emotional and sad to leave all the kind staff who helped my daughter both academically and emotionally grow through these pre school years! Everyone has been so kind and helpful! Best experience overall! They have a lot of activities and special dress up days! They also have an amazing aftercare program where they had a fairy garden, tea parties and lots of arts and crafts! So many different teachers helping around too you never feel alone and can count on them for anything! They are each special in their own way! We will miss this school so much!

We toured several daycares/academies in the area and in the end we chose Open Valley Academy (Pines…read moreBoulevard). It was the best decision we made for our child. Our child is in kindergarten now, and she still attends OV for after care. OV is an absolutely exceptional school and we never want to leave! The school is located on the second floor with secured entry, which made us feel very comfortable. As soon as you enter the facilities, you'll notice the comfortable relaxing atmosphere and music. The children are bright-eyed and happy, but not wired/hyper. There's order, and no madness. We even love the smell of the school! The staff is unwaveringly caring, loving, and warm. We've had and continue to have great experiences with the director: Ms. Anais, teachers: Ms. Marjorie, Ms. Cris, Ms. Kathy, Ms. Milli, Ms. Carla, Ms. Betsy, Ms. Zoe, Ms. Andrea, and the front office personnel: Ms. Lili and Ms. Barbie. The thoughtful events the staff puts together for both children, parents and family are so wonderful, so special, and memorable. They document all their events with pictures throughout the year, and even a year book at the end of the year, so you'll have plenty of great memories to look back on. The school's decorations change almost weekly which allow the children and their families to experience and welcome diversity, and feel excitement for holidays and other special occasions. My child was reading, and ahead of her class when it came time for kindergarten. She was even student of the month! The children not only learn academically, they learn to be kind, and to help and care for others. They learn to respect their environment, and keep their areas and spaces clean and neat. They encourage the children to wash their hands frequently and not spread germs. They get outdoors time twice a day in the school's private playground. We have a new addition to our family on the way and we can say with absolute certainty that she will also be attending Open Valley Academy. This school is a gem!

I would strongly advise others to think twice before enrolling in this school. My experience was…read moreextremely disappointing and concerning. Communication is a major issue-most of the teachers do not speak English fluently, my husband is always upset because, the teacher has to use Google Translate to give him report for our son. Even more troubling is the way students are treated. There is a clear sense of bias and unfair treatment, especially toward darker-skinned students. It creates an uncomfortable and unwelcoming environment where not everyone feels respected or valued. My son was 18 months old and the teacher Daniella would call me several times a week to te me to pick him up because he refuses to sit he refuses to take a nap (he is a baby!). I was paying $1600 per month, and they treated my family unfairly as if we weren't a paying customer. They don't care about teaching ! They only care about getting paid! they are scamming people. A school should be a place where all students feel safe, supported, and included. Unfortunately, that has not been the case here. I would not recommend this school to anyone looking for a positive and fair learning environment.

From day one, the teachers have been exceptional--patient, caring, engaging, and truly invested in each child's growth. They create a warm, nurturing environment where children feel safe, loved, and excited to learn every day. A special thank you to the director, Dawn, whose leadership sets the tone for the entire school. She genuinely cares about every child and family, and her dedication is reflected in the incredible community she has built. What makes this preschool so special is how well they balance academic excellence with social and emotional development. They foster meaningful friendships, encourage independence and confidence, and prepare children with the skills they need to thrive in kindergarten and beyond. Watching our children grow academically, socially, and emotionally has been such a gift. We are incredibly grateful to Dawn and the entire teaching staff for making these early years so memorable. We wholeheartedly recommend this preschool to any family looking for a place where their children will be challenged, supported, and genuinely cared for.

Not only have our four (4) children walked through its doors and graduated, they started school with confidence and the tools necessary to thrive. Their curriculum, incredible educators, the incomparable center director; Dawn, are all unmatched! Dawn along with the entire Kindercare staff are warm and extremely welcoming. They become the constant and reassurance we need with the care of our children. Patience, guidance, empathy, respect, dedication and communication are among many of the amazing qualities this center offers. I can go on and on but I'll end my appreciation review by simply saying, if you place your child in KinderCare Miami Lakes it will be the best decision you ever make. We're eternally grateful!

My daughter has to stop by her office and has to say hi every morning and bye every time we leave ! As a parent, seeing these kinds of interactions makes me feel like she's in good hands. My daughter has been there a few months now and haven't had any issues since and especially now in her new grade level. Although we know Leila adored her previous teacher (she always stops by her old classroom door, lol) We LOVE Ms. Stephanie and I believe its Ms. Sandra , I feel like my daughter is thriving and learning SO much. She comes home and says new things like every day. She's always super excited to go to school and you can tell that these teachers really love what they do but also love their kids. My daughter was pee accident free by like literally day 3 , and we tried for so long and couldn't do it, idk where we went wrong ! The school has cameras , and you can always see how the teachers are interacting with the kids, its awesome to watch. I highly recommend kiddie academy. As far as price , its pretty much the same no matter where you go in the area. 2 snacks and a lunch is included so thats nice !

WARNING: POLICE AND DCF INVESTIGATION NECESSARY…read more UNENROLLED AFTER 2 WEEKS! My 2.5 yr old in the class with Mrs Stephanie and Mrs Sandra, was assaulted and left with four finger prints, welts and a bleeding imprint of an adults nail in his neck. His best assertation to what happened (very well spoken almost 3yr old) was the teacher did it. When asked how it happened, he said he was being "mean" and the teacher went like this (motioning someone snatching his neck) When I picked him up, he normally runs over to me happy.... NOT ON AUG 2 2022. HE INSTANTLY started bawling when he saw me, and when I picked him up I asked Mrs Sandra what happened... Her story was he had been scratching his neck all day and she tried to wipe it. (I INSTANTLY DIDNT BELIEVE THAT STORY AS I HAVE SEEN HER BE ROUGH WITH HIM OVER THE LAST TWO WEEKS ON CAMERA AND I KNOW MY SON DOESNT SCRATCH HIS NECK TILL IT BLEEDS) Then I asked Mrs Stephanie, his head teacher, and her story was he fell in the bathroom with some boys rough playing earlier in the day (MIND YOU THAT IS BS AS THE WELTS AND SWELLING SUBSIDED AROUND 7pm SO YOU KNOW IT WAS FRESH FROM 4:30-5:10 BEFORE PICKUP) NEITHER TEACHER REPORTED ANY INJURIES TO ADMIN OR PARENT. I then came in AUG 3, to talk with JODY MILLER, one of the Directors, and the administration had no clue as to what happened. This incident was still undocumented after 3 attempts from parents both me and my wife to get to the bottom of this THE DAY BEFORE. After telling JODY MILLER about this scenario, she went to "TALK WITH HER BOSS" for a good 10 Min (LEAVING ME IN OFFICE), and came back with Mrs Stephanie's report from "4:30" yesterday. This report was written defensively in about 5 min while I was there. It was not signed and acknowledged by the director, and it was not given to me until I came and threatened DCF action. 3 Different stories from 3 different ADULTS!!!! WOW Talk about sweeping some shady shit under the rug AND STILL NOT DOCUMENTING ANY OF IT!!!!!!!! DISGUSTED AND APPALED EVEN IF THE TEACHERS WERE TELLING THE TRUTH IT WAS HANDLED INAPPROPRIATELY ALL THE WAY AROUND!!! ALL OF THIS MYSTERIOUSLY UNREPORTED DRAMA HAPPENED IN THE BATHROOM ***OFF CAMERA*** DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE. PICS INCLUDED
