    We had our son at Happy Days with Denise and had a wonderful experience. We switched him out so he…read morecould be in school with sister, otherwise we would have kept him. She provides breakfast and lunch, sends pictures through the day, and always have cute crafts done w/ the kids. My son always loved going there and can say Denise and Felicia are loving and caring with all the kids. Would recommend Happy Days to anyone looking for loving and attentive day care.

    Our family is incredibly happy with My Happydays! My daughter has been attending for 1.5 years now…read moreand from the moment we first visited, we could tell how much care and attention Denise puts into creating a safe, loving, and fun environment for the kids. She truly treats every child like family. Denise is patient, kind, and incredibly attentive to each child's individual needs. She keeps us well-informed throughout the day and always shares little updates and pictures that show how much she genuinely enjoys what she does. The activities she plans are wonderful -- from crafts and story time to outdoor play and early learning -- our child is always excited to go. The daycare itself is clean, organized, and welcoming, with plenty of toys and learning materials. You can really tell Denise has put a lot of thought into making it a nurturing space and we have by far preferred a home setting vs a facility. We feel so lucky to have found Denise's daycare. Knowing our child is safe, loved, and thriving gives us such peace of mind. We couldn't recommend her more highly!

    We love this school - ALL the teachers are so wonderful and my daughter,Gemma, really flourished…read morehere. Such great care and curriculum. The staff really has love for all the kids and help them all grow so much. We are so grateful for the time she was there and especially to Ms. Gloria & Ms. Mandy! Can't wait to see them again when our next child attends in a couple years.

    Our son has been attending Cypress Early Explorers (formerly Cypress Learning Tree) for a year now…read moreand we're so grateful for the entire staff. Everyone is very welcoming and attentive to all the children. Our son has a couple food-related allergies (peanut and dairy) and they do their best to accommodate. Over the past few months, they have renovated the classrooms and made some improvements to the large play yard. There is also a centralized app (Brightwheel) where parents receive important updates, make payments, receive photo updates, and check-in/out their child/children and I have not run into any issues so far. Parking can be a bit busy on random occasions but they have enforced a new rule that prevents cars from blocking the main driveway and there's plenty of street parking if the actual spots are taken. We're lucky enough to walk to CEEP on occasion but when we do drive, there's almost always parking available for a quick pick up or drop off. Lastly, the curriculum and schedules are very well-balanced and our son always comes home sharing exciting updates about what he learned, what he saw, and/or what kinds of arts and crafts he worked on. I could keep going but I'll end this review by highlighting the excellent operation here and how happy my child (and my wife and I) feel about Cypress Early Explorers Preschool.

    I have taken my time to write this review until after my daughter left the school because of course…read moreI wanted to get a more bird eye view. With that in mind, I wanna say I am deeply grateful for this school. They have great systems in place with low ratio and really teach the little ones a lot while they're there. I can solidly say that at two years old my daughter can count from one to 20 and sing the whole alphabet along with about 15 different nursery, rhymes and stack blocks and has very advanced fine motor and motor skills because of the school. I'm a licensed OT and always felt safe with and confident in staff. Mrs. Nali, Mrs Dhammika, and Mrs Nayana are well educated in this age group, patient, and loving. All of the staff are truly wonderful. We went from infant, to wobbler, to toddler and transitioned very well. I don't know the frequency but every time my child which class they gave me a comprehensive developmental checklist to tell me what my child was doing or wasn't doing that was on track for proper development or not and that is huge. When you're a busy parent and don't always notice some of the things that Are typical or atypical to have some professional eyes to help you understand where your child is developmentally is huge. They are CPR trained and do a great job with making sure they're fed and changed consistently. My baby never came home hungry or never was crying when I picked her up and never got diaper rash there. If you choose to be part of the little app, you will get photos of your child. Once every couple weeks in the classroom is playing with the other children. They also send little videos and they do little Halloween parades and classroom parties. The Christmas parade is precious too! The focus of MONTESSORI is self-sufficiency which as an occupational therapist I really love. She would come home and if she spilled something, she would run right away to try to clean it up. She very much wanted to learn how to do things on her own and she knew how to threw away her own trash, which was not something I taught her at home necessarily lol It truly is adorable and prepares your baby for a successful road ahead with school and life beyond. My only thing I would change is having carpet or soft floor in the infant room vs hard floors. Other than that, everything really is done perfectly, and they have a lovely little outdoor space that they take them to a few times a day where they can ride bikes and do the slide and all of that. Learning how to operate in a group and look at what the rest of the group is doing and follow along is a critical life skill, and my baby has transitioned to preschool seamlessly because of her experience at this other school. In fact, one of her current teachers used to work at Wee care as well and has positive things to say.

    We are eternally grateful to Wee Care's wonderful staff and teachers! Our son has learned so much…read morein such a short time and we are truly impressed with all the skills he has gained - social, language, art, motor, and more! A true reflection of Wee Care's dedication, and nourishing environment. Every single teacher our son had during his time at Wee Care truly helped prepare him for the future and have allowed him to have such a great head start. We leave this review with so much love and appreciation for Ms. Dhammika, Nali, Maria, Mary, Dima, Alondra, Derrika, Melanie and the rest of their teachers!

    My son Wyatt has been going to Rose's daycare since he was just a year old, and I honestly don't…read moreknow what we would've done without her and her daughter, Noelle. This was my very first experience with childcare, and I was so nervous in the beginning. It's such a hard thing to hand your baby over to someone else and trust that they'll be loved and cared for the way you would. We toured a few different daycares before finding Rose, and the moment I met her, I just knew this was the right place. Her home is beautiful, clean, and so welcoming--it immediately put me at ease. Those first few weeks were tough for me, but Rose was so kind and understanding. She sent me photos of Wyatt throughout the day and kept in touch so I always knew he was doing okay. That meant everything to me. Since starting with Rose, Wyatt has completely blossomed. His language has taken off, his social skills have improved so much, and he absolutely loves his routine of going in the mornings to see his friends. He's also built the sweetest bond with Noelle--he talks about her all the time at home and truly adores her. Rose and Noelle care for these kids like family, and it shows in every little thing they do. This review is way overdue, but if you're looking for a daycare where your child will be safe, happy, and cared for by people who truly love what they do, I can't recommend Rose and Noelle enough.

    We feel so fortunate to have found Rose's home child care. Our experience has been amazing. Rose…read moreand Noel are kind, patient, and truly treats the children like family. My daughter was always excited to go, and I had peace of mind knowing she was in such a safe and nurturing environment. The daycare is clean, organized, and full of activities that help the kids learn and grow. They even have water play tables for the kids in the backyard when weather permits. Communication was always great, and I could tell how much effort goes into making sure each child feels loved and cared for. I highly recommend Rose Home child care to any parent looking for a warm, reliable, and caring home daycare. We are so grateful for the time our daughter spent here!
