The fact that multiple teachers leave after a year (or two) and people tend to pull their kid out of this school speaks volumes for itself. This is a school where the "name" exceeds the experience. As a very involved parent, whose child is was also a minority here, there was a lot of nitpicking that went on and pointing out things in my child that I would see in other children volunteering yet it doesn't seem like anything was done for the other children as far as disciplinary actions. Ms. Wallin is also a problem, she plays favorites and watch out if you or your kid isn't one of them. There is unfairness that goes on with administration and some teachers. They hold kids accountable for things they did in Kindergarten, even if it's been years, unfavorable kids must be perfect. I remember being so excited when my child got into Uplift North Hills feeling like he was going to be supported mentally, emotionally, and academically. I've had teachers tell me they take their children out of this school before middle school and high school so 'their kid to be a kid'. If you don't want your kid to be well rounded with sports, social skills, and experiences, along with academics, welp.. this may be the school for your child.

Everyday my kids are very happy to come here. My children are 4 months and 17months so they are not yet talking to tell me how they feel but i can tell by their body language that they are happy. My 4 month old has been going here since he was 7 weeks and he LOVES his teacher. He is only 4 months and when he sees his teacher his smile goes from ear to ear , he starts cooing at her and giggling. Everyday they give me a paper on the times he has eaten and had his diaper changed... also they pay very close attention to the kids because they will tell me when they notice something different in my kids. For instance ms.falguni told me that my son was not acting the same and the next day he had a cold and a fever! she told me to pay close attention to him overnight and she was right. I can go on and on about how much i love them. The director is also there everyday at the front desk available to talk if you have any concerns. She is not only at the desk but she is also in the classrooms as well , when my kids come in she greets both of them by name ! when my 17 month old first joined , they did not just throw him in with toddlers , they eased him in slowly to make sure he would not have any problems , as far as kids scratching him/biting/fighting since he was about 13 months at the time he was not as advanced as the 18 month old toddlers, he was also much smaller. I will randomly sing a song like ABC's around him to see how he reacts to see if they sing it to him at school and he gets really excited and starts to dance and clap. He did have an indecent one time when he was bit but they gave me a full report on it soon as i walked into the classroom, and it has not ever happened again. I'm not sure on how they tolerate biters , but they did definitely resolve this issue! One time my son had a scratch on his face because he did it himself at home over the weekend and as soon as i walked in , the director noticed it even though it was small and she asked me what happened and i love that ! they are on top of everything and VERY organized! They do have a facebook page but its not as active , i think it would put the cherry on the top if they posted on their facebook page at least twice a week with videos and pictures of the kids doing activities. Im sure i left out plenty of amazing things , but i didnt want to make this post too long.

I waited a few months after enrolling my daughter into a new daycare to provide a fair review…read more Where to begin? There were several unacceptable moments at this daycare and yet I still trusted my daughter to them. 1. As an infant a teacher fell with my daughter in her arms. I wasn't advised I had a couple days to request to view the cameras. They never called an ambulance they just said she was fine. I kick myself in the butt for never taking this further and reporting them. 2. There was a teacher named Jasmine that an incident happen with and they let her go. 3. There was an incident where I arrived to be told my daughter ran into another child face to face collision and she had a huge knot on her forehead. No medical care was provided, I was notified by a teacher that wasn't even in the room or witness to the incident. The teacher caring for her supposedly never noticed or witnessed anything. Laughable, 2 children colliding hard enough to create a big knot on my daughter's forehead would have caused them to both cry. Nonetheless, no one was aware she had a head injury therefore if she would have suffered any symptoms after the fact or even died no one was aware of what occurred until I was notified at pick up and I sent an email out to them addressing that incident and how it was not okay. That's when they expressed they had no idea what had happened until they had to sign the paper notice I signed at pick up. 4. Children biting all the time and no one correcting that behavior. After my daughter was bit a few times she tried to start biting and I correct that behavior immediately. 5. Many other incident and situations occurred, but my last straw was Ms. Lee psychologically impacting my child and forcing her to put her shoes on when my child couldn't. What's worse is I supply shoes without shoe laces and the best part is I was watching the cameras right when this was happening. It lasted minutes not seconds, she proceeded to have my child crying while my child sat on the floor, Ms. Lee was inches from her face saying "God knows what". My daughter's legs were out with knees slightly bent and Ms. Lee decided to press her knee down (continued saying things) and forcing her to get her shoes and put them on. That was it, I had enough and had her removed for the room and made the decision to seek care elsewhere. This daycare is not a daycare, they don't have curriculums, they keep the older kids outside for hours even with extreme heat. They don't have any type of system to teach children consistency, potty training, nor any type of developmental curriculum. This is more like a nanny service, drop off your child, hope for the best and be met with you're just a nagging parent. I made a mistake to trust this place because my older son went to a children's courtyard in Grand Prairie and they were phenomenal. But this location only cares about money and doing the bare minimum. I'm happy to say that my daughter is at a new daycare center (different company) and it has been a success. My daughter has learned and experienced many amazing things and is fully potty trained. This happened in less than 6 months. The curriculum at this new school is high standard, she has done amazing activities, experienced diverse cultures. They don't spend hours outside (especially with it being cold). There is consistency and an actual curriculum with actual learning. Do no waste your money and time at this location, do not regret giving one opportunity after another for them to do right and also, do not have children ages 2-3 and older on the right side of the school (when you enter all rooms to the right), because the teachers yell at the children and they also use profanity. Yes, saying stupid, dumb, or worse profanity is profanity and unacceptable language. Lastly, it got so bad on the right side with Ms. Lee my child was crying on our way to daycare, and when we turned the corner to her classroom she would run back towards the entrance and cry that she didn't want to stay and how Ms. Lee treated her some way. Listen to your child, when they cry in your car driving to daycare (or any location) when they express anxiety or fear to enter a classroom and their facial and physical expression change *huge red flag* do not ignore your child. I drew the line especially when I seen what I seen on camera and it was the best decision I could have made for my daughter that is now in a better place, physically, emotionally and more. I will say the issue begins with corporate, they need to be more involved in what is happening at this location, they need a better system, they need to invest more in actual curriculums and they need to stop covering up their mistakes, now they don't allow parents to see cameras, they review it themselves and then make a determination that is bias. Lastly, they do not offer water and they hardly eat the food supplied at the daycare. Your child will always be hungry and thirsty.

But as a mother I cannot take my children somewhere where they are not safe or don't feel Safe and are scared of their teacher. I wish there was individual teacher reviews... Other than that daycare is clean and I enjoyed the cameras. Nikki and Kelly always greet you with a smile.
