My 3-year-old attended this daycare for almost 3 months and in this time his behavior took a turn…read morefor the worst. First, we were excited about the engagement we had hoped my son would have, he came home with worksheets to practice writing and tracing, we loved that but unfortunately the screen time allowed in this facility is excessive and was creating issues with his sleep habits and ultimately his behavior at home was becoming challenging we believe to be due to the excessive screen time. During the tour we were told the screen in the room was for educational videos and for music to be played for the children to dance to and sing along with. The daily report provided that my son was watching Jack Hartman for teaching American sign language, but the exposure to screen time far exceeded this. My son was coming home stating he had watched cartoons like Cocomelon, chu chu tv, etc. During Halloween my son started to fear jack o lanterns from something they showed the kids, he was even shown the Michael Jackson thriller video which the teacher claims was an "accident" ... after talking to the teacher to figure out what had happened, it became clear that they are just letting YouTube play the next videos without supervising what is being shown. We met with the Asst Director Ms Ashley and the Owner, Dr. Koshi (spelling?) and unfortunately our concerns fell on deaf ears. I wanted to know what the process was for picking these videos that are not educational and why parents aren't being told what their kids are watching and why their daily report is providing false information on what my child is being exposed to. We even reported that on several occasions when picking up our son as the teachers were bringing the kids in from outside that the teachers were asking the kids what they wanted to watch, and kids were asking for spiderman and frozen etc. On several occasions the screen was moved to a corner so that the parents couldn't see what was being shown. During thanksgiving they showed the movie the Wild robot without letting parents know this was going to be shown, the film is rated PG. They also showed them how the Grinch stole Christmas the Jim Carrey film which is also PG. I was never consulted or made aware about what my son would be watching or had watched. The use of the screens and the way the administration handled our concerns is very shady, for the price you pay for childcare and with their claims to be an educational facility to prepare children for school I do not trust that they are a good option for families that care about the quality of care and learning.

We have pulled our son out of this daycare because of a safety issue concerning management. To…read morepreface, the teachers were wonderful. Mrs Nino and Mrs Sam, y'all are incredible. But the management was negligent to the point that we no longer felt comfortable leaving our son there for even one more day. We have pulled our son from this program after learning that our son (13 months old) was fed popcorn as a snack. POPCORN! (For those unaware, just google top choking hazards for toddlers) And when I asked the manager, who sets the menus and buys the food, he told me he was not even aware this was a choking hazard. He was so incredibly dismissive and rude about this legitimate safety concern.

My son attended IJAK for a year and I wanted to share our personal experience with the daycare…read more Pros: Holiday events, monthly newsletter with instructional focus, flexible hours Cons: - There are no cameras - They do not send updates on how your child is doing throughout the day (not even end of day paper updates or report cards) - Teachers are encouraged not to share how your child's day "really" went - There isn't any kind of security at the drop off gate when dropping children off or picking them up which is very scary/concerning. Just the owner's husband walking around - Sometimes we'd pick our son up and he'd be in a different classroom with teachers we've never seen and older kids in there as well - We would often pick him up and his clothes were filthy - We used to receive artwork and evidence of learning, but it all suddenly stopped Last, a big piece of advice would be to make sure any communication to/from the owner/manager is in writing.

But I am not a fan of the Owner or Miss Debbie, something Erkie and wierd vibe about them. My friend had given me a heads up on ownership changes and I moved forward. And was pleased but my child got bitten multiple times and I would come in to find cops outside w no communication as to what was going on. Until days later when I followed up myself. That kind of stuff should be communicated to parents, since it's super scary. Then they had someone quit and my Baby started at a new daycare which I love. Hopefully things change for the good bc there is a lot of potential here. If it weren't for that I would've given it 5 stars but they got a lot going on right now.

However, storing cots in bathrooms(major red flag)completely unacceptable! As an early childhood educator with over 20 years of professional experience, this practice has never been allowed and raises serious health, safety, and licensing concerns. Programs should strive to exceed minimum standards--not settle for what is considered "acceptable" in Texas. This mindset is part of why Texas ranks so low nationally in education. Parents need to pay close attention to these details. Additionally, communication with assistant teachers needs significant improvement. The level of care and oversight from the lead teacher to assistants in the afternoon is lacking and needs immediate attention. After school care providers never seem to know what going on. Get to know your kids, on an individual level, know their needs and pay attention. Toddlers/preschoolers should not be without water especially during snack or meal times.

This school was a terrible experience for my family. While other parents were getting regular…read moreupdates and pictures of their children, I received almost nothing. Communication was constantly a struggle -- I was often called at work about missing items even though I always asked ahead of time if anything was needed. When I did get updates, it was usually last-minute, leaving me scrambling within an hour to fix things. What hurt the most was when my child was hit in the face by another student, and I wasn't told until more than three hours later. No parent should have to find out something like that long after it happens. As a foster parent, I work hard to give my children stability and comfort, but this school made that transition so much harder than it needed to be. I truly hope no other parent has to go through what we did. Please look for a different preschool where your child will be cared for, and where you'll be treated like a valued parent -- not an afterthought.

Nutrition & Curriculum * Balanced meals: Included all food groups with good variety - my son loved the options. * Snacks provided: Parents can send specific items if needed. * Strong curriculum: At 2 years old, my son is now praised for advanced speech and knowledge - I credit much of this to the center's engaging program.
