    My rating for this preschool has not changed, but what did need to change is the awful and…read moreuninformative review I gave a year ago when I wrote it. I adore this preschool and everyone involved in it. Here's a list of why: -The people who work here love kids. It seems like a no brainier but at many preschools the teachers don't really like kids and get annoyed, fed up, whatever with them. I get that kids (especially toddlers!) can be a bit of an ummmm...challenge. And I love kids but honestly would not have the patience to deal with 12-15 of them all day long. So it's really saying something to me when I pick up the boy that they aren't at the door trying to punt him to me. The teachers are patient and kind and truly love your child like they are family. -Field tripping. We go on just a few field trips each year but they rock. One is right across the street to the fire station. If you have a little boy you will see pure unabated joy in his eyes on this field trip. Little girls like it a lot too. Moms REALLY like it. :) Another great field trip is the annual dentist one where the kids learn all about good oral hygiene and get new tooth brushes. -This is a preschool, not a daycare. Kids are expected learn here. There are lessons everyday. My son, who starts kindergarten in the fall of 2014, knows his address, phone number, how to write his name, all of the days of the week, the months and can read several words all by himself. Not even in kindergarten yet. Need I say more?

    These caretakers were an answer to me and my wife's prayers. Heidi is an angel. We had a…read morechallenging situation with my son and they used loving discipline with my child. They really care about your child and you. I can't say enough and how grateful we were for them.

    My family member had her son here…read more the staff treated her very ignorantly and it made her worry about what kind of people she was entrusting with her little tiny two year old. Everything that can be observed and thought upon , where a person could be able to draw upon their own conclusions- pertaining to the style in which he's dressed- was questioned ...where she'd have to explain herself incessantly- as if they only bother her to get her(mom) to educate THEM on what is already the most obvious . Especially in this type of business, you want the best for your precious baby , to have some sort of caregiver question or doubt the mother's decision making (when it comes to the baby) is beyond comprehension these people act like they don't know what they're doing for you , to have to sit there and explain it !!! Do you really want someone that deft looking after your BABY!!!! No way and for them to critique the baby eating style, and sit there , and put any type of judgement over a little tiny baby being able to feed himself is so outrageous !!!!. Bad vibes all around !!! what are they thinking about your child, when you're paying them to do a job ? for them to sit there and put negativity towards someone so small and innocent just starting out in life . Horrendous !!!!! Avoid this place and find an alternative!!! For safety and spiritual reasons both . Go somewhere else !

    Our kids went here and it was great! We unfortunately had to move out of town and our new daycare…read moredoes not compare. The place is very clean, has a good learning program, and has the camera system where you can peek in on your kids throughout the day. Best part is that if there's ever an issue, the owner, Ms. Lisa, will personally take care of it. She's very down to earth and understanding. We still feel like we can call/text her even in the evenings. I miss this place. I especially love the cute homemade presents we get from the kids for holidays and the little parties they put on. The Easter bunny and Santa comes to visit and they take Fall and Spring pictures. Also, when our kids left, they made a going away binder full of cute pictures throughout the years. It was so cute that I cried!

Security features which include coded door. The staff if very friendly and helpful. Always makes me feel like they know my child personally. They have a lesson plan for everyday so it's not like they don't so something productive. Arts and crafts, outside time and snacks in between main meals are just among a few of the things they do. Very reasonable cost for attendance. Cannot say enough about the staff. They are very very nice!

    Let me preface this by saying, my husband is a civil engineer and I'm a web developer. We are…read morereasonable, well-educated people who are not the types to leave reviews, but our experience with this daycare was so bad we feel inclined to offer some insight into those considering this facility. Most importantly, we want to warn other parents who love their child as much as we love ours about some potential problems. Personally, I wish I had gone with my gut instinct when on my son's first day no teacher bothered to let me know how he did, or even approached me, when I picked him up from the preschool, because they all were too busy sitting at a picnic bench while the big and little kids all played outside. Numerous times we discussed switching throughout our experience with this daycare, but we wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt since as mentioned above, I feel like we are reasonable people. Here are the major issues we found to be point of concerns from our experience here: 1) Understaffed: There is a promised class-size ratio, and it seems like at certain times of day what is allowed by the state (7:1) was certainly surpassed in the toddler class. Even if it wasn't, teachers often seemed overwhelmed by large groups in the toddler class - one even letting us know she could not keep an eye on all of them. The lead teacher of our son's class even recommended searching for a facility with smaller class sizes when we brought up to her we were seriously considering removing our child. 2) Low-quality staff: There were a couple of teachers who were approachable and experienced, but for the most part, many were impersonal at best or seemed to lack basic knowledge one expects from a childcare worker on basic developmental phases. When any issues arose, as one can expect from the 1-2 year old range, we were often told by professional childcare workers that "I don't know what to do" which is an absurd thing to hear about basic developmental stuff with toddlers. This is not rocket science, but takes patience, staff, and close supervision. 3) Apparent lack of supervision: Often older children would wonder from room to room with no sort of supervision. This facility even has been reported for this issue, where one student stapled another students without the staff being aware: http://carefacility.doe.louisiana.gov/BlasPDF/SOD_08012018_50918_609720.pdf "1713 A Supervision: Children were not under supervision at all times as: On 7/16/18, O1 discovered a staple in C1's right thumb. According to O1, he picked C1 up from the center around 4 pm and they went home. O1 was washing C1's hands and discovered the staple in C1's right thumb. O1 took C1 to the Emergency Room where the staple was removed. According to S3, she gave C1 the stapler to hold while they were working on a class project. S3 does not know when C1's thumb was stapled. According to S3, C1 did not say anything and did not indicate he was hurt in any way. S3 was unaware of the staple in C1's thumb until notified by S2 of the incident around 4pm-4:30 pm. C1 was not closely supervised while C1 held a stapler since a staple was in his thumb and staff was not aware that a staple was in C1's thumb." From my personal experience, I noticed often when I came early to pick up my son that teachers would be just sitting and sometimes looking at their smart phones. Due to the lack of supervision, there were frequent "incidents" from bites, falls, and scratches. This is normal toddler behavior but given the frequency it is hard for me to believe the facility is adequately staffed, or if it is, that the staff are paying close enough attention. When I told other childcare workers about what happened at our gym daycare and other friends, this was their exact response, the facility is obviously not hiring enough teachers or hiring the right teachers.

    My son has been attending the Primary Colors in Slidell for the last 2-years, and for the entirety…read moreof that time, he has not had stability in a teacher. There was constant turnover to the point I never knew the name of the person in his class when I would drop off or pick-up. Fast forward to this year, my son had an incident in his class when he got a significant gash over his eye, and his glasses were broken. I asked to see the cameras and they told me that they did not work. When I asked why we weren't informed, they said that they didn't have to, "the cameras are a courtesy," though they advertise cameras. Now we are in May 2023, and on a Wednesday night, parents and teachers are sent the same message via the app and told they are closing permanently. They are not communicating when we can collect our children's things and are not responding. It's heartbreaking that they didn't even care enough about their own staff to inform them separately. We even saw teachers show up for work only to find out by the sign on the door. How can you trust your most precious treasure with this owner. They have had some amazing teachers, and I hope they land somewhere much better.
