    My son has been going here for daycare full time since he was 4 months old. He's now 25 months old…read moreand we couldn't be happier with our experience. Of course, I need to address price. While I was pregnant and looking at daycare options, I knew Doodle Bugs was going to cost more than other locations. But, for what they offer, the cleanliness of the center, and the general feeling I got, I knew it was worth it. Cost doesn't equate to care, but for the amount of time my son is here, I feel like we are getting a fair deal. The teachers from day one have been great. Everyone is so kind to my son, greeting him when he comes in, high fiving him, sharing stories about him...I really feel like he is cared for. I've always had great communication with the staff. If there are issues, they bring them to our immediate attention. Any concerns that I've had have been addressed kindly and quickly. There is always something fun and educational going on. Daily art, sensory play, music, imagination play...it's great for a learning toddler! My son learned some sign language which helped us communicate with him before he could talk. I know so much of the learning he has had is because of his time at Doodle Bugs. Don't get me wrong, the time and attention my husband and I spend with him is important too! My son genuinely loves spending his days here which is such a relief for 2 working parents. I know this is the best option for our family.

My baby is nonverbal which they knew that when I called and also again when it came time for sign up. They treated him different than the other kids and not in a good way. After two weeks of watching my baby's on cameras wander around a class room and things snatched from his/her hands by the staff along with other children. I had a meeting with the director who is as dumb as a box of rocks and only cares about her staff who's not qualified. She simply told me that my son does not fit in with the other kids, as well to tell my husband that my son didn't want to watch the magic show they had planned and wouldn't sit still. He's 3 ! I'm sorry but do you really think a bunch of 3yr olds are going to sit still for an 1hr long magic show? After that's she recommended it would be best for him to go to another daycare. My son was there Monday, Wednesday, Friday and my daughter Tuesday and Thursday for two weeks. You didn't even give them a chance to get settled in. You care more about keeping staff than teaching and helping these young kids. When it comes to my kids I do not play we pulled both our kids immediately!! Such disappointment in this facility. my son went here when he was younger and was pulled when my daughter was born, And our experience with them at that time was amazing. How that facility went to shit in two years is absolutely crazy. For $389 a week they sure do treat your kids like shit. What happen to this " Learning Academy". Guess you have to raise robots to be perfect if you want your kids to socialize now a days.

This is my…read more3rd attempt at leaving a review.I feel for some personal reason the moderator's keep deleting my post. I had question for them specifically and they don't respond ? All I said in my last 2 posts is I was disappointed in the university's speeches for the graduation that we attended a couple weeks ago. I feel politics has no place in a commencement speech. Parents are there to support their kids and watch them graduate. It is not up to the university to push its opinion on the attendees.

    DANGEROUS CAMPUS!!!! NO POLICE PRESENCE at basketball game…read moreon 3/1/25!!!! Attended the basketball game with some friends. The place was packed!! Did not see any police maybe 1 officer? Saw what appeared to be security guards, but no police officers....not sure what's up with that? I thought Canisius University had a police department? Says online they have a police department at Canisius University. I saw some people that appeared to be security guards at the game, but there were only a few of them. There were a bunch of fights breaking out at the game and after...... and NO ONE HAD CONTROL of the situation! It was REALLY SCARY!!!! People were fighting, saw a door get ripped off a bathroom!!! NUTS.... I don't understand if people pay so much money to go to school here...where is the police department during a game when there are so many people and anything......LITERALLY ANYTHING could happen???!!! Heard from some friends that attend Canisius University that their entire police department has been leaving because of the Chief of Canisius's Police that got hired. Not sure if that is true or not, but I can tell you there was NO law-enforcement presence at the basketball game from a firsthand experience. I think I literally saw 1 Canisius University police officer. Pretty sad if it is true that Canisius would keep somebody like that leader of their Police Department in that position if that person is causing and driving all of the officers away from the university that are supposed to be protecting it? Makes no sense, right... Not sure who makes the decisions on brining in Police Chiefs, but I can tell you that I would not be paying to go to school there with that many problems if that is what's really going on because rumors are circulating all over the campus about it. Found all the details above out after talking to people at the game that go to the school. Anybody could've walked in there and there could've been a major problem. NO POLICE!!!!! I don't think I'm gonna be going back to anymore games there. The game was great, however I value my life!!!!

    Yelp - please don't combine this into another review. This is a stand-alone review of the SUNY…read moreSouth Campus - the one where there were riots in the 60s. This is a very old campus and was outgrown in the 60-70s. Thats when they built the North Campus in the suburbs. Much larger and newer. Houses plenty of the schools, but not all. This campus features buildings built in the late 1800 and early 1900s. Old stone. Brick. Beautiful outside walkways. Huge hallways. Marble floors and stairs worn down by years of kids steps. The history here is deep and takes us back to a time when the school was not yet in the State system. It was founded by Millard Fillmore, who was then a local lawyer. He went on to be president. The school went on to be the largest in the NY State system. This campus still houses the schools of architecture and nursing. Future dentists go to class on this campus. There are plenty of students who live in this area and take busses between the campuses. On summer days you'll see students all around here on the lawns and benches. There are often lectures on this campus that are open to the public.

    How do you rank a campus? Well, I just did. Architecturally, this campus boasts a traditional…read moreAmerican college feel with stone buildings and neoclassicism. More recently, the campus has new outdoor spaces to attract people outside in warmer months. There is a UB Stampede bus, shuttle, and Metro Rail to connect this campus to UB North and UB downtown. Also, it's more affordable to live near this campus than the other two campuses. Many park on property when using the rail line. A couple downsides to the campus are the wind and spread of buildings. The wind can be a bit much at times because it's at the highest elevation in the city. This isn't to say much for a flat city, but it does matter when winds come off Lake Erie. I wish buildings were closer, so that walks wouldn't feel far. Maybe a small brew pub on campus would allow for libations to help foster that Live, Work, and Play feel of UB2020.

You'll see a building at the back end of the parking lot. That's the school. I was here for a cooking class. Very nice kitchen be perfect for classes. Which is good as I gather they work with Russell's somehow, the building has that name on it too. There's a nice lounge area where we are the food we made. It all seems new and clean etc. if I were a student I'd probably like the environment. I'd definitely like the parking which is super easy.

At the…read moretime I entered the school, the program had a great reputation, with teachers and staff that had years of experience at the college and in the field. My class was the first class where they took on almost twice as many students. This meant they had to cut the clinic time in half for us because they no longer had enough sites to place us at. The long time director knew this would have negative consequences for the students and for the field, and because she opposed this, she was fired. After that things really started to deteriorate and a couple long time teachers began their exit. I felt like a guinea pig for almost two years. There was an extreme lack of leadership and many students came out unprepared due to not having enough clinic time. The only real message Trocaire College gave me is that they ONLY care about money. I got a good degree, and afterwards a good job, but for the price you pay you might as well go to a community college where you'll pay 1/3 the price. save yourself the trouble.
