From the first call, Stuart, the office manager took a lot of time to answer all my questions about what kind of programs they have the kids in, their meals, and how they handle Covid restrictions. I wanted a daycare that had some structure to it and didn't just let the kids watch tv all day. Once I did the tour, I was impressed with how friendly the staff was and willing to take the time to talk to me. The rates are very affordable too and meals are included! My son has been at the day 4 1/2 months now and it has been a great experience. The staff and Ms. Cynthia (the owner) continue to be caring and encouraging to my son. They let me know when he needs extra supplies or has any problems that might crop up. They have a great app called Brightwell where I can see photos, crafts, and what they're learning every day. Highly recommend Kids Connect if you want a staff that cares, a good facility and great communication.

I am extremely pleased with the care and professionalism this daycare provides. From the moment you…read morewalk in, the environment feels warm, welcoming, and structured in a way that truly supports the children's growth and development. The staff is attentive, nurturing, and consistently communicates with families, which gives me great peace of mind. One of the most meaningful things to witness has been my nephew's progress since attending. He is not only learning, but truly processing his communication, social interaction, and confidence have noticeably improved. It's clear that the teachers are intentional about engaging the children in ways that support both their emotional and cognitive development. I also have to highlight the new director, who has been nothing short of amazing. Her leadership is evident in the positive atmosphere, organization, and overall quality of care. She is hands on, compassionate, and clearly committed to maintaining a high standard for both the children and the staff. You can feel the difference she has made. Overall, I highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for their child. It's a place where children are genuinely cared for, encouraged to grow, and set up for success.

Follow me: Weds (10/1) tuition was due for the week of 10/5/2025, meaning that the week of 9/22…read morewould cover the week of 09/29-10/03. My daughter was picked up late on Monday, 09/29, +$30, and I was late on tuition on 10/01/2025, +30 on top of the tuition. So, on Thursday, I emailed this to Marqueda so we could come up with a payment plan, and I agreed through email. Earlier this Thursday morning (10/02), my daughter was rejected care, not because of my past-due balance on a day-late tuition, but because it was 7:15 am. I was confused because there was no school, and La Petite promotes that on school days, the drop-off time is 6:30 am- 6:50 am, so the kids can make it to school on time. So I had to turn around, call my job, and tell them I had to miss work because of the situation. Second offense, on Friday (10/3), there is still no school for HISD kids. I arrived at La Petite at 6:30 am, and there was no one there to receive my child. At 6:40 am, a lady pulls up and lets us into the building. I'm thinking to myself, "Well, this is strange. Parents have 10 minutes to check their kid in for care, and my daughter is the only one here. This cannot be true that the cut-off is at 6:50 am. I would see other kids pulling in." Then, the daycare teacher who let us in, my daughter, and I see a lady come from the back. I asked her if she had been her the whole time because I had been calling and knocking on the door. She responded, "Yes, she was her, but she could not hear." La Petite is 30 minutes away from my job; therefore, I would be late the day after I had to call out of work because of La Petite. I left a voicemail for Marqueda on Friday, 10/3, expressing my frustration about the situation, and somehow I was gaslit. She said that "I went into working on Thursday, thinking it was Wednesday, so I didn't know they had school, but upon reviewing your account, I see that you're delinquent, and she wouldn't have been able to stay for care on Thursday anyways." Well, that's confusing because remember I said at the beginning of the review that I paid 9/22 would cover the week of 09/29-10/03, so that made no sense. Then, even if so, I responded to the email of the payment plan, and said I would pay on Monday since I was late for the week of 10/05. She proceeded to say I was screaming at her when I was not. She said that I would not let her speak when I asked her throughout the conversation if it was okay that I spoke. She told me that most parents tell them ahead of time that their kid will come in when there is no school, or they will watch them at their house. Like I mentioned before, 10/2 and 10/3 were paid for previously; they always pick her up from school on Thursday and Friday, so why would she not be accounted for? It seemed as if anything I said in response was being turned into something else because of deflection. I had to end the conversation and call corporate.

We feel incredibly fortunate to have found this school for our daughter. It's so much more than a…read morepreschool- it's a true community. The play-based, child-led approach has been wonderful for her growth, sparking her natural curiosity and love of all things crafts while giving her the freedom to explore and learn at her own pace. The teachers are absolutely exceptional- deeply knowledgeable, creative, and caring. They take the time to understand each child and create experiences that meet them where they are while gently encouraging them to grow. The director is so kind, makes herself available to talk, and is very involved in the day to day school day. The co-op model has been such a gift for our family as well, allowing us to be involved in her education and have a window into her school day, as well as to build relationships with other families. This school pours so much kindness, intention, and heart into everything they do, and we couldn't imagine a better place for our daughter to begin her educational journey. They offer before (Spanish) and after school (sparkle studio) programs that our daughter loves and looks forward to attending. We feel very prepared for the kindergarten year next year and have nothing but amazing things to say about Beehive.

When I started looking for a school for my 3 year old twins, I was admittedly somewhat nervous…read moreabout it. I wanted to observe them learning and interacting with the other kids that go to school with them, but also to be an active participant in the classroom myself. On top of all that, I was hoping for a play-based school, as research has shown that play is one of the best ways to learn. Beehive turned out to be the perfect fit! I loved getting to sit with my children during circle time, watch them navigate social circles, get messy in the mud kitchen, and of course there's always an art project (my children are avid artists, so my countertops are always covered in papers!) Because the school uses a play-based learning structure, activities are fluid and the students can pick and choose where they want to spend their time. Mine spent a LOT of time at the art table and have really progressed their fine motor and creativity skills. My twins just graduated this year and I am so sad to leave Beehive. It really felt like a close knit little community! I have to add- something unexpected were the relationships I gained with the teachers and other parents. Some of them have become close friends of mine which has been great for play dates! Maybe it's selfish, but I've loved getting to meet people (that I genuinely enjoy talking with) who share my parenting philosophy and have kids the same age as mine.

We recently left the Childhood Center after 6 wonderful years because both of my children aged out…read moreand moved on to kindergarten. The school was always such a happy place for my kids and they loved going. It's a smaller school so the teacher/staff are all involved in every classroom and know every kid by name. There is very low turnover on the staff so your children don't have to adjust to new teachers often. TCC uses an app and updates multiple times a day with pictures/activities, that was one of the hardest parts about moving on is not getting those updates every day. TCC also keeps things fun and stimulating for the children with theme weeks, extracurricular activities (Tippi Toes, Soccer Tots, Jolley Trolley), art, daily spanish class, and occasional music. If the weather is nice they try to give your kids extra outside time and in the summer do fun things like splash day/foam party/snoballs. The preschool program in particular is very impressive as far as learning and curriculum and my kids were more than prepared for grade school. They also have the choice of healthy/balanced lunches and snacks so it is one less thing for parents to worry about. The other families are wonderful as well and there is a great community. Parents are often invited to events for things like Halloween, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Easter, Christmas, and several others. The gifts they send for Christmas and Mothers and Fathers day that your child made are priceless and I treasure them so much. They have flexible part time options if you are looking for that. I can't recommend this school enough.

From day one, she was treated with a unique love combined with the structure that all children crave. They are incredible at including parents in the day-to-day life of their kids at school. After attending other schools, I can say that TCC excels at: -Offering outside activities during the school day (music, dance, soccer, etc.) -Parent communication - a detailed monthly newsletter of curriculum, menu, and celebrations -Consistent updates on your child with numerous photos a day -Balancing love and discipline (my child is SO well behaved at school thanks to them!) -A focus on health for students -Involved staff -Most importantly, my child was happy every day and never wanted to leave school We already miss TCC so much and wish we never had to leave. This school is a gem.

I always felt safe bringing my kid to school, and we had no issues during the year that we were there. The main reason why the school did not work for us was because the Mandarin class size got really large. It was 10 kids when we started, and then maybe 5 months later it was at 18 kids. I felt this number was too high for one teacher (who did not have a full time assistant) to handle. Especially because there are 3 years old in this class too. Ms. Jessica is an amazing teacher whom my son loved dearly. I believe that she did her best to juggle that many kids. She is loving and teaches the kids a lot more than just Mandarin. She is always friendly, and seemed to genuinely care about my son. Even though Crossing Borders ended up not being for us, I do recommend them to any parent who's asking. They are well organized, have a fun playground, and they kids do learn whatever language you sign them up for . My son speaks to me regularly in Mandarin at home now, and I couldn't be more thrilled. Thank you Crossing Borders for a wonderful experience!

I could not have asked for a better support team at a school for our young one. They are great at teaching AND caring for/loving your precious little ones.
