So even begin enrolling my child in this Montessori daycare was truly a mission. It took months to…read morebe able to receive a call back from the director and every time I would go in person I was always told she had "just left." I was finally able to tour the center, and I loved the layout of it and the activities the children were doing, the place was very peaceful when you walked in and everything seemed very put together. However, when tours are scheduled, I feel that people are always on their best behavior. I enrolled my kids in at the last minute and decided to drop them off in the middle of their day because I was running late that day. The toddler class was fine, and my son walked in happily. But when I handed my baby over to the infant class, I was completely disappointed. The teacher for the infant class was playing Cocomelon for the kids on her phone. A real Teacher would know that any screen time before the age of 18 months has detrimental effects on a child brain, especially shows like Cocomelon, which are designed to be addicted to babies and toddlers (literally, look it up.) I spoke to the director right away and informed her that I was not comfortable leaving my son in that class because the teacher was giving the babies screen time without the knowledge of the parents. The director said that she was not aware that this was happening and that it must've been a one time thing. However, when I asked the teacher why they were watching Cocomelon and she said that she used it as a transition for them to get ready to go to the park, which makes no sense. The director of the daycare was really nice and offered a trial week, but overall, I will not be enrolling my kids here simply for the fact that the teachers are doing things behind the directors back. Had it not been for that, I would've been happy to enroll my kids into this daycare as they had a lot of good programs for the kids.

I have called multiple times, left voicemails, sent emails all to simply get information on the…read moreschool to possibly enroll my child and never heard back from anyone. That is no way to run a school.

My child attended Learning Best Edgewater for two years. The teachers themselves are good and…read moregenuinely caring, and they work hard with the kids. Unfortunately, the ownership and management are very disappointing and overshadow the positives. Activities get canceled (such as music) with no communication to parents. There is constant penny-pinching -- parents are repeatedly given long shopping lists (30+ items) for small things like napkins and supplies, even when bringing food. Costs go up every year, yet services and activities continue to be reduced. When concerns are raised, Ms. Meybis shows little interest in resolving them. Each complaint is met with the same reaction, and no real action is ever taken. It's frustrating to see tuition increase while the quality and offerings decrease year after year. Because of this, we ultimately chose to leave. I would strongly recommend parents look elsewhere -- Kinuvu on 22nd is a much better option.

Over $2000 per month for only 4 hours a day! But now I…read morethank God it was only 4 hours because my son didn't even touch his water bottle at this Miami heat! And I told them multiple times he doesn't know how to use it you need to show and they said it's ok but no water bottles ever been touched by my son. Anyway, a week at this facility was more than enough to discharge my son because he got Covid! For the first time in 2 years! Me and my husband both are vaccinated because we take it very seriously! I'm currently pregnant with our second baby and couldn't even imagine the consequences If this Covid situation would happen to me! I had to isolate myself from my own child! The school don't check on babies! Parents doesn't care about there kids coughing they send them to school anyway! And guess what? No refund because all this school care about as money! Stay away please, STAY AWAY!

If you want to enroll your child here on a part time basis they will rip you off. For Summer they…read morecharge $240 a week for full-time enrollment (8:30-3pm) and $225 a week for part-time (8:30-11:30am). So even though your child would be attending 17.5 hours less a week than one attending full time you are only getting a discount of $15 a week. How does that make any sense? I figured it was a typo on their information and called to verify and they confirmed that the pricing was correct. The lady working there could not explain the pricing structure even though she agreed that it didn't make sense. Most comparable schools in the area are about $400-$500 a month for full time students so this place is way more expensive than most. With so many other schools out there with more reasonable pricing and pricing structures there is no reason to pick this one.

They tell you the baby has made great progress in his learning, but it's all a lie. They hide a lot of things from the parents, and you only realize it when your child gets sick. They don't know how to communicate and they don't have enough experience, especially the teacher of the two-year-olds.

I am forever grateful for the KinderCare at Deerwood. Over 25 years ago, I entrusted my three…read morechildren to their care, and now my grandson is thriving in their outstanding program. The longevity and dedication of the staff are truly remarkable--when I enrolled my grandson, I went to register him with my now 27-year-old son, and Ms. Roz, who taught my son decades ago, immediately recognized him. Ms. Ellie, the director, has grown with the center from an entry-level position to her current leadership role, which speaks volumes about the positive environment and staff retention. I have complete confidence that my grandson is safe, well-cared for, and genuinely loved by his teachers. He is excelling academically--already beginning to read at age four--and I credit KinderCare for his impressive progress. The communication from the center is excellent. Ms. Ellie is always responsive, approachable, and goes above and beyond to address any questions, even after hours. She listens carefully and clearly takes great pride in her work, which is reflected in the nurturing atmosphere she helps create. KinderCare at Deerwood is truly exceptional, and I highly recommend them to any family seeking a caring, high-quality early learning environment. The center also offers wonderful additional programs, such as a cooking class that teaches valuable life skills--I recently signed my grandson up and am excited for him to participate. This program is worth every penny spent. The outcome is the best investment I have ever made.

I called kindercare and Ellie, the director, was always there to support me and answer any questions I had. She assured me they would treat my daughter as one of their own and make sure she was comfortable before making any drastic changes. I was scared to switch her to a new daycare but it was the best decision ever. From her first day in Kindercare, she was eating, drinking her milk, she looks so happy when picking her up, it's so clear that the attention and care she's getting here is what she needed. They've helped her learn to walk, say her first words and she is now transitioning to the toddler class. Everyone from Ellie (the director) to all of her teachers are amazing, down to earth, and so nurturing and loving. You won't regret putting your child here, nothing more important than knowing your baby is being loved and well taken care of every day. - They cook their food there daily, have several playgrounds for the different age groups, and are very secure with two different doors that require a code to go inside. The director is always there and always answers the phone for anything you need.

As a mom with two toddlers who have attended this center, I've witnessed a beautiful transformation over the years. In the earlier days, there were several changes in management, and while leadership did the best they could with the tools they had, things felt a bit inconsistent. Now, under the guidance of the newly appointed director, the center has truly blossomed. She has brought a clear vision and shifted the school's philosophy toward a Reggio Emilia-inspired approach, which I believe is a beautiful and enriching way for children to learn and grow. She's not only improved the physical spaces, making them cleaner, more organized, and more engaging for the children, but has also cultivated strong relationships with both the teaching staff and the families. You can truly feel how deeply she cares about the children, their safety and development, and the well-being of the entire school community. I wholeheartedly recommend this place a thousand percent!
