A beacon of light. A glimmer of hope and inspiration. 826 New Orleans answers the call to pull out literary potential and embrace literary talent of the New Orleans Local Children. This place provides support, space and opportunity for the community's youth to be free to think outside the box & run with their imagination. I was here to volunteer for the opening of this facility, byway of Yelp and this was quite a heartwarming volunteering event. A place where literary freedom is not only embraced, but is WANTED & WELCOMED; brings me sheer joy. The space is vividly decorated and I'm sure this was intentional; as bright vibrant colors inspire vibrant, vivid and wild thoughts/imagination. And to see the EXCITEMENT of the youth regarding their literary pieces, brought me a warm fuzzy feeling. I have hopes of Volunteering there again, this was a great place for inspiration.

LISTEN, DECIPHER, READ, SPEAK I took two 5-day review…read morecourses here this summer. It was a huge break through. I was at the point where I was thinking in French, but I was at an impasse. Then I realized I needed to hear it spoken. The words are very similar but the accent is the tricky part. By listening to conversations, non-watered down, I slowly began to acclimate to the pronunciation. FORMIDABLE!

Amazing location to learn and practice French!…read more A Great place to go and hangout if you want to converse in French, read french books or check them out from the library, or take a class. I am a college student and have spent some time there studying for big tests or getting help with a French paper. They rock! Always willing to give me a hand and if not, they always point me in the right direction. Check it out... Great location. Great teachers. Great memories.

Every time I mention LF, the most common reaction is 'oh yeah! I've heard of that place, haven't…read morebeen, though.' Why?!? I've been taking French here for 2 years now and I absolutely love it. Each teacher and their methods/how they run their classes are very different from each other, but I have yet to hear any complaints (we all have our favorites, though). Classes can be anywhere from 6-12 people and we sometimes govern what time they take place, depending on your teachers schedule. They're usually 2 hours and meet once a week between January-June, June-August, and September-December. They have all different levels from beginner to conversational French and their prices are way more reasonable than traditional classes/lessons. If you're interested, take a look at the schedule and ask to sit in on a class before buying.

It started off a little rocky with the bartender not being able to attend but the team offered us a refund or come the next day. We joined the following day and both were SO happy we did. We learned a little about NOLA and a lot about cocktails and left a little tipsy and with a handful of new recipes to try at home. I'd highly recommend for anyone who's interested in making( and drinking cocktails).

This is the first "daycare" my child has ever been to in his life and he started at 2 and a half…read more I've been able to keep him home with me since he was a newborn since I work remotely and have had family help throughout my work days. But now that he's getting older, he needs more stimulation and more activities and more interaction than just being at home with family. So I decided to put him here, part-time. He goes here two days a week And this child development center has been a game changer for him. His speech is getting better, he's learning new words and phrases, and he loves all of the activities and playtime that is scheduled every day that he gets. This place is a little pricey, as it is almost $900 for two days a week, but I can walk there from my house, which is very convenient and he's not even a mile away from me while I'm working, which is important to me. So if there's an emergency, any flooding anything that would make me nervous about him being away from me, I can literally get to him very quickly and pick him up. This place is very much recommended as they are very secure, there is a code you must enter to open the door and they have armed police officers on the property for pick up and drop off. The teachers are very sweet and all of the administrative staff seem to know every child and parent by name. Highly recommended if you are willing to pay for the extra amenities. Oh, and I almost forgot, one of the best things that they have is an actual app where they send a push notifications when their diaper is changed, when they eat and what they eat, and when they take a nap. So you're able to see what your child is doing while you're away.!! And at the end of the day, they give you a detailed report of what activities they did and how they contribute to their developmental progress AND they add pictures of your child doing the activity!!

Can't recommend Kidopolis enough! Our daughter attended from 18 months - 2 years and the only…read morereason we left is that we were able to get into a daycare much, much closer to our house. The staff here was great - they are very up to date in the technology they use. Check-in is quick and easy via computer at the front door, security is tight - there are security officers at the entrance to the parking lot and entering the facility required a code entered into a keypad. The classrooms are well kept up, clean and picked up at the end of each day. I found the teachers to be warm, excited to see the children, and willing to give extra attention when needed. One of the things I really liked was the app they used to post updates throughout the day - meals, diapers, naps and pictures were posted to keep you updated on what your child was doing every day as well as provide drop-off and pick up alerts. In her 6 months there her vocabulary grew immensely, she started learning letters, counting, colors and animals. I felt they were teaching her and not just watching her while I worked.
