Staff relentlessly denies any fault regardless of evidence proving otherwise. Director has no remorse or accountability for actions of staff stating "what do you want me to do". Overall terrible experience. VPK staff and classrooms on the other hand; fantastic. Caring, work on individual needs with each child, play centered learning, very communicative. Would not send children under four.

EXCELLENT! I love their communication app and how they actually care about your child.

This is all a parent really wants when it comes to their child. I love Care-A-Lot Preschool and I am so happy to have found them. Most days he walks right in, no problem, not even a wave :) A huge bonus is the papers that come home everyday telling you what they ate ETC. Very helpful when trying to watch out for allergic reactions. I am so happy there!

My child was in attendance here for 5 months & I couldn't get him out soon enough. He was placed in…read morethe 2 year old room because there was an opening there. He was 18 months when he started. My son was bitten several times (a normal thing for toddler, yes, but still an issue). The first time, the staff had no clue it even happened. He had 2 bites on his arm & 2 on his back. I noticed them when I got him home. They were severe enough that they left marks for several days. I KNOW my son must've cried when it happened. When I reached out to the teacher & owner about it, the response was "these things happen. We'll keep an eye on him". when I mentioned that he must've cried when it happened. The response was, "well, he cries sometimes." I let his teacher know that if there was another incident where he was injured or bitten that I wanted to be called immediately so I could pick him up. There were 2 separate biting incidents after that. I was not notified like I had requested. He also scratched his leg while trying to climb under a fence because he was not being watched on the playground. He had 3 different teachers in his class. No introductions were made, nor were the parents notified that there was a change. The general vibe in the daycare is very chaotic and disorganized. My son would come home completely filthy every single day. It looks like they didn't bother to wipe his hands or face at least once during the course of the whole day. One day he came completely covered in marker. On many occasions when I was picking up my son or dropping him off, I would see kids climbing all over the place. On tables, in the cubbies, on the windowsills, etc. It seemed like the teachers had no control of the classroom at all. The daily paper that they offer to tell you what your child's day is like was often forgotten. I would have to remind them almost daily to put it in his bag. They also feed the kids a lot of junk food. The meal for lunchtime was usually pretty good, but the snacks were usually sugary cereals, donuts, cookies, cheese, puffs, etc. So I started providing his own snacks from home, which many times were forgotten and he was fed whatever the rest of the children were eating. The staff were very nice people and I befriended a few of them, but as a Day Care, I would definitely not recommend this business. I will never ever ever send my son there again or recommend someone else go there after the experience I had after a mere five months of enrollment.

I absolutely love this child care center so much so all 3 my my boys have went here. My original…read morereason for finding a child center was to get my son acclimated to a classroom environment the year prior to going to VPK. So we started with 3 half days for preschool. When I originally started looking for a preschool for my first son I went to a few very well-known local facilities and was not impressed at all. Each time I walked into the facilities I would just stand and listen to how the teachers were interacting with the children and how the children were playing until someone noticed i was in the facility and then I would ask for a tour. I was never happy with what I heard or saw. When I visited Holy Cross I walked in and just sat and listened I did not hear any children getting yelled at the place seemed very clean the teachers were interacting with the kids respectfully and the children seemed like they were having fun. Another reason why I like this facility is because it's smaller and the teachers and director are women who are a little bit older that are well seasoned and not like the typical younger people who like to be on their phones and not watch the children. I've had all three of my boys attend their preschool program and their VPK programs and I absolutely would recommend this place to everybody. If you're looking for a place that has smaller ratio teacher/child, well seasoned teachers and a clean Facility this places for you. Also the prices are very reasonable if that is a factor in finding the right facility for you.

These two teachers along with the whole daycare deserve all the praise!

Our little guy has been attending a little over a year now and I have nothing but good things to…read moresay about Carol, Charity and Austin. They are genuine people who actually care about the children's well being and education. Little background; Caiden has been is now 5 and prior to attending here, he was kicked out of 4 child care facilities for behavior since he was 3 years old. He would not use his inside voice, sit still when asked, and picked up a bad habit of biting other children, and even his teachers at one point. We were hopeless. We really thought no matter what we did to try to stop this behavior- we weren't going to be able to find a set child care program for very long without having to find another in the area that he hasn't already been banned from. Carol's been at it for over 30 years and it definitely shows! Not only has Caiden learned how to read, write, spell, do simple math, but his behavior is completely turned around. The amount of patience and energy that they put into these children really shows and I am so grateful we discovered their program when we did. They do so much with the children too! For example they had our local fire station come out with a truck and a couple firefighters to give a presentation and shoot the water out of the hose - They had a REAL butterfly garden showing the stages of life from caterpillar to butterfly- They have had plenty of farm animals as guests for education and of course the cute factor. That's only a few. If you're looking for a place that feels like home to your child-THIS IS IT. Now our little man is completely ready for kindergarten and is able to keep a few friends from this experience. We thank you for that and are forever grateful.
