Miss Fazle was my 2 kids preschool teacher 18 years ago. She not only taught my children, she taught me. As she was the first educator for my young children, I learned more from her and her guidance than I did in any book. Unfortunately, we had to move away, but she is always in my prayers of thanks for the foundation she laid with our family.

I've had the opportunity to collaborate with co-founder Kelly Dawn Jones several times and have…read morewitnessed firsthand her dedication to educating young children and her passion for making sure that early childhood education is quality, loving, evidence-based, and empowering. L.O.V.E., as she primarily refers to her program, is founded upon: Learning Opportunities Valuing Education She believes that the classroom is wherever a child may be. They're always learning. L.O.V.E. primarily uses the Reggio Emilia approach, developed by Loris Malaguzzi in Reggio Emilia, Italy. L.O.V.E. is dedicated to each child's ability to think critically to solve almost any problem given an attentive teacher, a prepared environment, and supported by a community that sees the whole individual child as significant and valuable to the world before him or her. They utilize movement, music, art, nature, investigation, and discovery to facilitate developmentally appropriate learning physically, cognitively, emotionally & socially. There are two L.O.V.E. locations - both are on the Southeast side of Indy with this location being the main location and corporate office. L.O.V.E. offers sliding scale and accepts CCDF, On My Way Pre-K, and Indy PSP. L.O.V.E. has been around for 9 years. In addition to its services specifically with children, L.O.V.E. co-founder (with her now retired mother) is a constant advocate for the children she serves and for early childhood education. You can find her following legislation impacting children (how I met her) and attending rallies on behalf of teachers. L.O.V.E. also trains and certifies a pool of substitute teachers who are then available citywide to early childhood centers in need. L.O.V.E. has a deep desire to positively impact Indy's Southeastside and has creatively adjusted to meet the needs of parents during the current pandemic. They are open Monday-Friday with hours adjusted according to the needs of the children they teach. Jones does remarkable work and her enthusiasm is contagious. She passes that on to the teachers she teaches and, in turn, they pass it on to the children. A wonderful gem on Indy's Southeastside, L.O.V.E. is an under-recognized option for early childhood education and the more I've learned about it the more I've been impressed.

It's sad when someone who has been entrusted with your child's care for almost 5 years violates…read moreyour child's privacy by putting them on the 5 o'clock news without your permission because their fight for equitable pay is more important than ensuring your child's safety! On top of that continually questions your parental authority! Enough was enough! Kelly-sole proprietor of Love Your Child's Care Childcare, LLC invited the news and didn't inform parents until less than an hour before it occurred then wasn't responsible enough to be on site to ensure kiddos privacy was maintained allowing WTHR-TV to then put unedited videos featuring my children on the news and web without any parental permission! They also put the sign in sheet with names of some of the children on said video as well! Now did they get it taken down as soon as possible, yes, but was the damage and the trust already broken......definitely! Then when all the parents are expressing their anger at her for allowing this to happen in the FB group chat she uses, I express my outrage and say she should have been there or should have rescheduled to ensure the kids were protected, and that it wasn't her teachers responsibility but hers as she's the one who scheduled the interview in the first place! So instead of taking the Criticism for her mistake in stride, she removes me and other parents from the chat because she doesn't like what we're saying! She then calls an impromptu emergency parent meeting at 10pm that night AFTER a parent earlier in the week had already requested one for other concerns (changing the hours with less than a weeks notice) which had been ignored and cries the entire time and instead of apologizing, goes on and on about why she's fighting so hard with Childcare Changemakers for childcare workers rights & wages, but I'm sorry, not at the expense of my child's rights or the rights of other children or their parents! I get it I do, but Not at the expense of the kids! Now Why didn't I immediately pull them? Well let's see, I don't have to answer that but for personal reasons! Partially though because Kelly does mainly behind the scenes now and doesn't do a lot of direct care anymore, she pays others to do that, so I still trusted those staff! But I did inform them immediately that I was searching for alternative care! Then today I get a message asking if their last day was Thursday! I'm like uh, no! I only informed you I was looking, not if a date we were leaving! Then it goes on about how they want to give my daughter a 'graduation' although they've been informed multiple times that although I'm trying to get her into kindergarten, there's no guarantee as she misses the cut off! I don't want to get her hopes up! So I ask, for multiple reasons, for them to do something private between her and them and to also write her a letter that I can put in her keepsake box to read when she's older! Instead of saying ok we will respect your request as parent, I'm questioned and completely & rudely told they don't accept that, that as her teachers for the last 5 years they have the right to celebrate her how they want! Well, sorry, you're not! I know im knew at this whole parenting thing as I just adopted my kids, BUT, questioning me every time I exert my parental authority, sorry that doesn't work for me! I don't care how much experience you have, it does not mean you know better than me for my own child! I will note we've had ongoing issue for about the last year and a half as was discussed during the recent emergency meeting. This was just the breaking point! This is on top of us making every sacrifice to NOT move them as these kiddos have had enough trauma in their lives and paying exorbitant fees on top of having CCDF! So sad to say our relationship with Love came to a sad end today and I had to immediately pull my children! Especially since none of the teachers want to talk to me and have apparently blocked me, a parent, on their main form of communication! Then Kelly wants to message me and has her settings so parent can't respond! Let's just say, Love & it's care is totally not what it used to be! I do NOT sadly recommend this program at this time! So many happy memories and such a sad ending! Those are the facts....you do with them what you will! So not only have my kids lost their teachers they love, they lost their godmom Kelly! This mom is just so devastated by the recent turn of events in our life! I wish the best for Kelly and staff!

We used Sitters to the Rescue to hire a sitter for a wedding reception. Being from out of town, we…read moredidn't know anyone in the area. I first tried Care.com and other online sitter search sites and found them time consuming and less than reassuring. I would be on my own for interviews and background checks--way too much work and expense for a one-time event. Luckily, I found Sitters to the Rescue and it was exactly what I was looking for. They have their own network of experienced, background-checked sitters, and the service contacted a sitter who met my specific needs (infant, Saturday night, etc.) They were very knowledgeable about setting up a sitter in a hotel room and anticipated needs I wouldn't have, like having the sitter check in at the front desk. When our awesome babysitter arrived I felt completely comfortable. The hourly rate was a little more than if I had found a sitter on my own, but considering it included the legwork it was a good deal. If we need a sitter in the Indianapolis area again, I will definitely be using Sitters to the Rescue.

However, after seeing my niece…read moreand nephew thrive at FCLM, I knew my decision was made, even while impressed by what other schools appeared to offer. Ms. Concetta & Ms. Vanessa are five star, first class instructors who care for their kids as if they were their own. Ms Concetta is the best and her lesson plans are amazing at a daycare and Pre-kindergarten level! My daughter has learned sign language, Spanish, knows over 100 sight words, counts to 100, and is reading.. all this just as she was turning 5. It is a home-based ministry; it is clean, full of color and wonder, and they are always learning and creating artwork that is brought home. Ms Concetta makes it a point to inform you of your child's progress each day and is an awesome alliance in helping to rear your child if challenges in the child should arise. The Christian aspect is awesome and has instilled more bible knowledge and principles in our child as well. And COVID proved that they are on top of proper protocol and take all necessary steps to protect the staff and kids. My son will definitely be attending this year and I am thankful for their dedication and excellence in early childhood education! They are a blessing to all who attend!

My child has been going to this daycare since he was 4 months old, and we are still here 1.5 years…read morelater. It's been a great experience for our family! -Staff are genuinely caring and kind. They all know our child's name, greet us, smile and wave when people come and go, etc. Management has always been really nice and diligent. We have found the staff to be very trustworthy and thoughtful. -The teachers use an app to provide regular updates and pictures throughout the day, which is great (ex: times of meals and diaper changes, nap lengths, fun activity/craft updates, etc.). -We like the structured format and rules that come with sending our kid to a bigger daycare/company. There are quality standards and rules in place that seem to help keep things running smoothly, and with kids, that's huge. -All meals and snacks are healthy and included in the costs, diapers are provided on site and included in the costs, etc. -For a modest additional fee, our child does yoga every week and loves it! Every few months there are fun new activities around holidays in the day, and sometimes after hours events like family picnics and movie nights. -The caregivers and rooms change by age (about every 9 months it seems), which seems pretty standard. But I like that my child has a cohort of other kids the same age who he moves along with to the different rooms over time, and I value the diversity of all the classes so far. -We really loved the infant classroom - the 2 lead teachers run a tight ship, and we always felt like our child was in great hands. As our kid has moved to the toddler stage/rooms, things change but he is equally happy and delighted by the staff, and well-adjusted. Why not 5 stars? -I do not love the middle toddler room space; it's cramped and stuffy. I hope they can find some ways to remedy that or cut back on the number of people in the room at once. Otherwise, the facility is generally comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. -There is some room/caregiver changeover, and that can be confusing. I think that's more to adjust based on capacity at drop-off vs. pick up times. Sometimes I have a hard time keeping up with some of the teacher names and faces though (they do have a nice board in the front lobby showing who everyone is). Other info: -If any incident happens (such as 1 toddler biting another), they report it to you, document it, and come up with an action plan for how to handle if it continues. We have found the staff to be very responsive to any concerns that have come up (note: this doesn't happen frequently though). -There are few and far decent day cares on the east side, but we think this is a good option. It's also close to a Walgreens, Target/Post shopping centers, and several pediatrician options, so there are a few things nearby if you need them. -Another review mentioned drama but that hasn't been my experience at all. Maybe it varies by age/classroom, or maybe things have changed under the new director?
