They do not check to see if the kids actually ate . They are not allowed to bring in their own water . There is no one securing the entrance/ exit . One instructor told me my daughter ate this and that . It was strange because I know my daughter is picky . I asked my daughter what she ate that day and she said nothing . Goes to show they will lie to the parents to make it look like they did a good job taking care of your kids . The director or woman in charge is very careless . There was issues with my fees and she did not do much to help . Everytime i tried to cancel our reservations she would try to convince me not to . I ended up not needing a reservation that she basically tricked me into keeping "just in case" . I had to pay 2 weeks of child care I never used. Will not recommend this place especially if you have kids that cannot speak yet . Who knows what they go through and there is no way for you to know because they will lie to protect their business .

Taking my children out of this school was the best decision I made. When we started at the school…read morewith Ms. Samantha as the director we were in love with the school and staff. As the years went on to the current director you could feel the atmosphere change to a more hostile one. My children went through countless teachers with the current leadership and it just all makes sense now since unenrolling. For all incoming parent looking at this school definitely pay attention to the leadership here they are the reason we chose to leave. They charge a crazy amount for the summer fee and half the things they plan they end up canceling or barely even inform the parents of the dress up days. During the tye dye day if you don't provide your own shirt your child doesn't get to participate even after the parents spend an extra couple hundred dollars for a summer fee that's should cover the cost of shirts for the whole center! Your children will come in contact with countless germs and that is totally normal in a school setting but not even being informed if you or your child comes in contact with Covid during the height of the pandemic is beyond wrong! I honestly don't understand how this place is still in business with how it is being ran.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kids Land Academy. My two children have been in their…read morecare for several years, and the experience has been a blessing. Their educational program has prepared my oldest for kindergarten with age-appropriate worksheets, and it's clear that they are genuinely invested in fostering growth and development in every child they care for. They have an excellent outdoor play area, structured daily activities, and even a couple of annual field trips that make this daycare special. My son comes home talking about all his friends and daily activities. They also provide all snacks and meals for kids over the age of two, which is super helpful for busy working parents. As full-time healthcare workers with unpredictable schedules, finding care with a clear, consistent schedule and flexibility has been incredibly important to us. Kids Land Academy has been wonderful in accommodating our needs. Their minimal closures and understanding of our varying hours make it so much easier to balance work and family life. They have been very willing to work with us when adjustments are needed. A special mention goes to Mr. Naresh, who is possibly the calmest, most patient, and caring individual I've ever met. He has an incredible way with children, and I always feel at ease knowing that my kids are in his capable hands. His calm demeanor and nurturing nature create a safe and welcoming environment for the kids. I highly recommend Kids Land Academy to any parent looking for a caring, educational, and fun place for their little ones. It's truly been an exceptional experience for our family!

When you don't have family to watch your young child, and you have to work to pay the bills, you…read moreare faced with a very difficult decision to find a childcare provider you can trust to treat your child with the love and respect you would if you could just be there with them. When you consider how important these first years are to the emotional and educational development of your precious child, this decision is one of the most important ones you can make as a parent, and it requires a lot of trust. My wife and I faced this dilemma many years ago when we stumbled onto Lalita and the business she had just started, KidsLand Academy. Our son Jude was the first baby to enroll in what would become a thriving childcare built on the passions and talents of a woman who would become a Godsend to us and our child. Lalita gave our son many years of genuine love and care that no amount of money can guarantee. We were blessed to find her, and she and her family will always be close to our hearts, as they were willing to be the family we didn't have to watch our young Jude during those critical years while our family was just starting out. If you are reading this review, you are fortunate to have found her too. Jude is now 13 years old. He is a kind hearted, responsible, and respectful young man who has always been near the top of his class academically. He had a great start. Thank you, Lalita.

Up until recently, everything was great in my child's classroom and then there was an incident, and my child's teacher completely changed her attitude towards my child, which is very unsettling and uncomfortable. When I have to look at her every time I drop off my child at school and she has a smug look on her face. mind you that my child is a busybody. She's a child that you need to be on top of she is extremely intelligent she's also a three-year-old and we know how that is. This particular teacher was always happy to see my child and after the incident it was almost as if she didn't even want her in her classroom anymore and that's what I dealt with dropping my child off in that classroom after the incident every time! If you lack the education, you need to provide care for a busy child then maybe you should go collect your $16.50 or $16.75 somewhere else because these are our children not to be played with or treated as such because of any situation! This teacher also never reached out to me not in an email or a text message to even talk to me about the situation even as I passed her in the hallway recently, which is very upsetting. With this being said the Director of this daycare center was very attentive and helpful when I brought to her my concerns prior to my conversation with her about this teacher my child was switched to a different classroom, a classroom with two amazing teachers, that clearly have the patience and education that they should have to work with children! Teachers that genuinely care about our children are important and I'm thankful that my daughter has two of the best now at this daycare!! I was seriously thinking about switching my child to a whole different daycare because of this, but once she was moved to a different classroom with the two teachers that have dealt with her before on numerous occasions because she was sent to that classroom on numerous occasions due to too many children in one classroom, I am at ease now knowing my child is with teachers that value their job and care about our children! Thank you Tracy and thank you teacher Janelle & Qiana the world needs more teachers like you! The 1 star is for the teacher that forgot what her actual job is!! My child's two teachers deserve 5!

Tmy 1 year old was around 3-4 yr old. They are not around the kids their age. She would arrive home & I'd find bruises. It would either be caused by other students or perhaps the teachers. My daughter would be playing at home and would yell out the kids name that would bully her at school. My mother had an incident with the staff there. LACK OF PROFESSIONALISM, & most of all not the people you'd want your kids to be around for 6-12 hrs a day. My mother entered and saw my daughter in the corner of the room being bothered by another student. Meanwhile 1 teacher looking after 3 classes put together into 1 class. Sitting in a corner. Spaced out not even interested in actually doing her job. The older white lady that's in charge fled out her office very aggressively yelling at my mother. If In a child care facility the person who is in charge is not capable of approaching someone to handle a situation properly then unfortunately the place should shut down . Lack of safety for the children. ANYONE CAN WALK IN. The front office is an absolute mess. It is not clean. There's a trapped smell that is very unpleasant. My daughter didn't last 3 months there. & it's very unfortunate that people have no other option because they work full time.

A year ago, my family and I made the daring move from Los Angeles to Beaumont. We finally started…read morelooking for a day care center for our 3 year old daughter in April, 2024. We were very nervous but knew the many advantages my daughter would reap from the experience... From the tour, my daughter and I fell in love!!! We were able to observe all the classrooms in action. Even the littles were doing arts and crafts! It was a beautiful sight. We patiently waited for her start date. And in August 12, 2024, we finally got a spot! Ms Daisy is her teacher and she's a true gift! My daughter has a lot of energy and was not used to a structured setting. But Ms Daisy has been patient and empathetic as my daughter became acclimated to this new environment. Every night, my daughter organizes her school uniform, and every morning she wakes me up excited to head to school. She comes home and shows her work with pride. She even gets excited to do her homework. My daughter absolutely loves Young Scholars and loves Ms Daisy! (The third week of August, one week after my 3 year old started), we were soooo fortunate that a spot was available for our 18 month old daughter. Before we inquired about availability, we never planned to enroll our baby girl in day care that young. But we saw how happy our 3 year old was and knew Young Scholars would be a good place for our baby to grow up at. Ms Cynthia has came into our lives as the baby's teacher, and has been a light! From enrollment, I addressed my daughter's speech as an area of concern. Both Ms Rosie and Ms Cynthia have taken the time to observe and unofficially have shared their observations. I say unofficially because providing recommendations takes time and progress reports are their "official" findings... I'm a special education teacher, I'm well aware that a school can't diagnose a child nor can they give recommendations right away. It's vital to gather data, especially when my daughter is still developing. but in the meantime, I appreciate the updates! It makes me feel heard as a concerned parent... My baby girl has been going to young scholars for one month now and this baby is making strides!! Before Ms Cynthia came into our lives, my baby would wave to signal hi/bye, she'd point when she wanted something, and would cry out of frustration when attempting to converse with us. Now, she's saying "bye-bye," "help me," "please," "agua," and the list continues!! Although my baby's speech is not where a typical 19 month baby should be, she's making growth and that's a celebration to us!! She's showing confidence when she speaks and puts effort when attempting words. I love that she gets homework because it reinforces the skills Ms Cynthia is teaching. My baby enters the classroom and greets Ms Cynthia with a hug, that shows the love and trust she has in her. & I can't forget about Ms Jobana, who's been an angel with my girls! Ms Jobana is another teacher and also supports during day care hours. My daughters usually close out the day with her, and She's so sweet and attentive! I love this place so much! This is a great place for kids to learn and grow! As an educator, I know how underpaid and challenging this job is. I love that Ms Daisy and Ms Cynthia put love into their job and it reflects on my daughter's happiness. This isn't just a school/day care, it's a second home for our kids. I'm so grateful that the universe put this school in our paths because we feel right at home.

After reading Tisha R's review, it became apparent she either suffers from amnesia or simply lacks…read moreany sort of self awareness. Given her unbelievably unhinged behavior IN FRONT OF CHILDREN and my personal experience with Young Scholar, I feel it is my moral responsibility to share what I witnessed and my personal experience with Young Scholar. A few weeks ago, I entered the school and immediately became concerned when I heard screaming. I quickly dropped my son off at his class to ensure the safety of those involved. Tisha seems to have forgotten the part when she disregarded innocent children and found it appropriate to scream at staff, belittle them, and smack items off the shelf and onto the ground. I'm baffled that this woman is more concerned with limiting screen time than modeling healthy and appropriate interactions. One ought to be more concerned with modeling good character. My son has attended this school for nearly two years and came highly recommended by a family member. Before enrolling at Young Scholar, my son was diagnosed with a speech delay. I made Ms. Rosie (THE OWNER) aware of this. The diagnosis filled me with anxiety and she handled it with sensitivity, respect, and care. She provided me with additional resources and ideas. She even requested his treatment plan to implement in the classroom. His speech quickly exploded and progressed more than it had after months in therapy. I credit Young Scholar for his progress. I find it hard to believe Ms. Rosie would ever address this sort of concern in the callous way Tisha described. It took him a short while to acclimate and there were difficult mornings. Ms. Cynthia was eager to integrate him and held him when necessary. My son is resistant to naps but she tamed that beast too. Working remotely allowed me the flexibility to pop in whenever I wanted and I rarely observed an iPad being used. They are occasionally utilized during free time and outside curriculum hours. Additionally, whenever a child receives a scrape or bump, parents are given a report and explanation as to how the injury occurred. We are asked to sign the report and the incident is put in a file. Also, the ADMIN she referred to is named Ms. Mari. My son would kidnap her and keep her forever if he could. Not only is she fantastic with the kids but you can see the love in her eyes when she speaks of them. Ms. Mari is the type of person you want to be friends with and I sincerely enjoy her beyond the care she provides to my son. Ms. Rosie is the owner. She can't provide information for a superior that does not exist. I hope this parent takes time to reflect on her conduct and takes accountability for her actions. Nothing she described warranted the behavior I witnessed.
