I used to work for this facility, but have since left. While I was working there the teachers (most…read moreof them) beautifully treated the children like their own. It's management that's the issue. Despite coming in with my certifications and years of experience, I, as well as many others, were still making minimum wage. After working there a few years many of us still had not seen a raise at all. Management was bad for playing favoritism. A teacher can watch 5 kids depending on the classroom, so with 2 teachers there is 10 children in a class. Occasionally the coworker would leave to *gossip* with the owner, leaving one teacher with 10 1 year old's for over an hour. There was a classroom with an extra kid occasionally because the owner would allow her unregistered grand niece to come in about twice a week, putting us over ratio no matter what. After leaving, I worked for a different company, and needed to pick up a child from Kids First. The teachers had lost the child, and neither of them knew where he had been for about the last half hour. After complaining to my company, Kids First tried to get me fired from there for "slandering their name." The teachers are great, and truly try their best with what they have, but I wouldn't send my kid here due to the train wreck of management.

They get one star for some of the nice people there but overall I can not even express the level of…read moredisappointment I have. My children were constantly sick, it was disorganized, they couldn't follow directions about my children. My son was bitten and NO ONE told me about it until I asked what happened. Also, the camera system network was overloaded and had serious blind spots that the teachers would hang out in. Even though we are no longer with them I can still access it which says a lot about their security. I probably would have just parted ways and quietly went on our way, my son did learn some things there and did make some friends. However, they informed me two weeks after we left and over two months after the fact that I had missed a payment. The owner refused to return any phone calls to my husband on the matter and they sent it to collections adding over $100 in additional fees to the original balance. After I found the receipt for the week in question they supposedly rectified it with the collection people however they had previously told my husband they couldn't do anything about it once it was in collections. So we can just add lying and misdirection to the heap. No one has offered an apology and instead of addressing my complaints they just deleted my review on Facebook. Both of which would have gone a long way in rectifying this situation and leaving my husband and I with a more complacent view of them.

There is a high proportion of children in that GT program that were from this preschool. Coincidence? I wouldn't bet on that. My 5 year old is currently in his 3rd year there. This is a NAEYC certified preschool, I believe the only one in Highland/Munster/Merrillville area. The teachers are warm and educated. The staff turnover is extremely low. They take the time to get to know you and your children. They know your child through his entire spectrums of development: social, emotional, cognitive, motor, etc. They educate holistically. They have after school care a couple days/week until 230 as well as TumbleBears, Dance class, sports, and other enrichments. Leaving my children there, I have never felt "guilty" or doubted for a second that they were in very capable and loving hands. For some people, the only negative might be your child will learn Hebrew words, prayers, and about the Jewish holidays as this school is a Jewish preschool. I see this as an advantage in today's multicultural society. I have learned to make challah with my son, and enjoy that even at their young ages, they realize that our world view is not the only one. In fact, the class make-up is highly diverse with all ethnicities and religions represented. If you are looking for a quality preschool, look no further.
