My daughter has been going here for 11 months. Though there aren't many reviews for this daycare,…read moreall the same kids are still here from when I first enrolled my daughter a year ago, so I imagine there are a lot of other satisfied parents. The teachers/caretakers are what make a school/daycare a good experience or not. Lori and Jessie have been the primary teachers and both are extremely dedicated and care a lot about the children. Lori has always gone the extra mile to keep me updated on my daughter. My daughter runs up to her excited every day. The daycare is tidy/orderly, they do a lot of crafts, they provide healthy snacks, if you forget your kids lunch they won't call you and tell you to bring something, they'll find something for them to eat, etc. They try to be as accommodating as possible. I do think they need another full-time teacher, for support, in case anyone gets sicks, and just to make things easier for them. I also think whoever owns LMA should be more involved in helping the Salem location grow.

Those Oregonian kids gotta have indoor places to play--it rains all the time! When I went in here I…read morethought, I wish we parents of young kids had a place like this back home. It rains so rarely where I live, it'd be a shame to be indoors all day. It'd be rad if they could open the roof on sunny warm days. Do I ask for too much? Imagine a really good indoor play structure. Like 3+ levels high! A small play area for tiny kids. Some video arcades and such. Some adult games like corn hole, shuffleboard table, darts, and such. A full restaurant and bar! A few cabana-type small rooms for parties or whatever. And it's not too loud!!! I was worried an indoor play area would be excruciatingly noisy, and not well ventilated. It seems like the space is big enough to suppress the kids' yelling, but not so big that the echoes impose. I guess the large space also helps keep the air from feeling stale, maybe they have added ventilation. The bathrooms are kinda small and I had to walk outside the main play area through the small lobby. The food is good, and they have a wide selection of beverages--including adult beverages! Free parking lot. The price is about what I'd expect for an indoor play structure, when we need to get out from the rain. PLUS there's all the other stuff. I guess the money I spend on food and beverage helps keep it open. I had fun cruising through the play structure with my 7yo and my 1-1/2yo. Some adults were conversing in groups, or alone engulfed in a book. If you have kids, go. If you choose to give a thumbs-up or not, I hope you found my review helpful!

I'm shocked at this companies response to COVID 19. They locked their doors with no communication…read moreuntil yesterday. I could still understand that with all the government changes and restrictions but cant believe they demanded March and April full tuition from families impacted by the shutdowns. This is a NON-PROFIT with SEVERAL MILLION annually in sales. They have requested all parents that are lower income ask for government tuition to pay them so parents can keep their spot during COVID 19. This is a multi million dollar non-profit that is asking for limited government funds so they can continue to make money? The money should be allocated to smaller private business that are at risk! I'm disappointed.

If I could give zero stars, I would. This is a daycare center that does not seem to even like…read morechildren. They treat them like cattle to be herded from one room to the next with as minimal effort or movement from the staff as possible. My grandchild was in the pre-school for two 1/2 years and was constantly berated, bullied and terrified....not by the other children, but by the staff. The staff has no concept of child development and have very little training. They should be there to guide, teach and promote healthy self esteem, but instead they belittle and cause emotional damage to vulnerable minds at a crucial point in development. This causes lasting damage. They should be investigated and shut down. I am sure there are other parents out there who are afraid to speak out for fear of repercussions. Instead of speaking up, they just pull their kids out....this has to stop.

My daughter has a disability and after 2weeks I got a call they could no longer care for her due to behaviors. What was disappointing is there was no call prior to this to talk about the behaviors. When I talked to other childcare professionals, including a child psychologist, they said these are common behaviors especially in a new environment. It saddens me how it was handled.

A Life-Changing Experience at Salem Academy…read more Middle school can be a tough time for kids, but Salem Academy's Bridge 56 program offers something truly special. It gives students the independence they need while still providing the support and guidance to help them succeed. Our son started at Salem Academy in 5th grade, and this school has changed his life in ways we never could have imagined. Unlike public schools, Salem Academy looks at the whole child--focusing not just on academics, but also on character and personal growth. It's a safe, encouraging place where kids can learn, grow, and become who they were meant to be, surrounded by positive role models and supportive peers. Now, as we approach graduation, our family will forever be grateful for our time at Salem Academy.

By the time each child graduated from preschool, they had the confidence, social skills, and academic foundation needed to succeed in school. The price was also one of the best in town! The teachers created an environment where learning was exciting and children were encouraged to be curious, creative, and independent. We loved seeing our kids come home talking about letters, numbers, science experiments, friendships, and all of the adventures they had during the day. What truly makes Yellow House special is the people. The staff genuinely care about the children and families they serve. Over the years, they celebrated our children's successes, supported us through challenges, and became an important part of our family's story. Five children, six weeks old through age six, and every single experience was exceptional. Cloud Nine has been one of the greatest blessings for our family. We recommend them without hesitation to any parent looking for a safe, loving, and high-quality childcare program.

It was so great finding out they had interior cameras that I could access as a parent, especially with this being the first time I had my child go to care other than myself. They provide a fantastic assortment of foods to him to expand his pallete and each child has a daily report card of what they ate, diaper changes, and naps. All of the girls up there have great communication with me and send me photos of him throughout the day as well. It is a bit pricey but for the little extra I'm paying, I get peace of mind with the cameras and consistent communication and most of all my son loves all of the teachers up there.

Curriculum themes (seasons, colors, holidays, etc) are integrated with reading, pre-writing and storytelling, counting, art, and music (my daughter loves to sing the songs she's learned) and biblical stories. She is proud to know about rules, consequences, manners, and personal responsibility: i.e. clean up, sharing, communicating, etc. and has made many friends. She loves her teacher and the day care staff, all of whom are warm, knowledgeable, gentle and supportive. And she comes home happy! What could be improved? At drop-off, we working parents are in a rush, and the daycare staff isn't as cohesive as I believe they could be in helping with the transition . . . it's a little bumpy. I've seen where teachers and staff come to the car to get the kids and bring them in: I liked it because it saves time and the transition is clear-cut. Other than this minor issue, Sonshine School has been a blessing for us and I would highly recommend it.

We enjoyed dinner in their cafeteria before splitting into groups for learning sessions. The school was clean and cheerful. I enjoyed seeing all of the kids' artwork displayed as we walked through the halls. We attended a robotics class and a native class that focused on geography and traditions. We all learned how to make cornhusk dolls and left with one of our own. Thank you Salem-Keiser for recognizing and teaching Native American culture in public schools!
