I was shocked to find how clean and safe this place seemed. Doors are kept locked unless you have a pin code to get in (you choose the PIN number when you officially register) and even the doors stay locked from the inside unless you press a button to exit. There are plenty of rooms which are separated by different age groups, and the kids are closely monitored by their staff. My son is 6 months old and in the infant room. Since some babies are crawling, they have you put on booties so you don't get the floors dirty m from your shoes. They have a 3 step washing process for all toys that are played with. The crib mattresses themselves are cleaned every night and sheets are washed daily. The cribs have a plexiglass surrounding them so babies don't get their legs or arms caught in the slats. The staff has been there several years, so the low turnover rate is fantastic to me. The center director and assistant director were wonderful about answering all my questions. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great day are. Their prices aren't too shabby either.

I had overwhelming feelings of anxiety and guilt, because, as a mother, the last thing you would want to do is trust your perfect tiny human with strangers. Ms. Ebonee, Ms. Mari, and Ms. Sara F may not know it, but they helped me step by step to work through my anxiety and guilt. Every morning I was greeted with smiles, by the staff. At first, it was rough on both my daughter and I during drop off, but as time went on, she would smile and as Ms. Ebonee calls it, dog whistle when we arrived at school. Every day at pick up, I get details on how my baby's day went, and what her teachers were working on with her throughout the day. My daughter was slowly becoming more comfortable with her teachers and was able to open up more at school. This helped me be at ease. Sure, there are still times when I have mom guilt take over, and I pick my daughter up early from school to spend a little extra time with her. But, I trust her teachers and the care they have provided for my daughter has been outstanding. Gilden Wood's Commerce is safe, reliable, and the hours work well for me. Another thing that I love about this school is that there is an app and they provide, in real time, updates on meals, naps, diaper changing, and they even send pictures and videos of my little one doing different activities. You can also send messages to the teachers and they are able to respond. There are also cameras in the classrooms and in the infant napping area, so I can check in at any time. I appreciate everyone who has been apart of providing care for my daughter this entire time, thank you!

It has been more than a couple of months since I removed my son from this daycare center, so I have…read moretaken a significant amount of time to gather my thoughts and concerns to write this review. When seeking a center for my 2-year old son I made a point to read the reviews for each center I considered. For that reason, I wanted to make sure that I wrote a clear review of my family's experience at this daycare center. First, let me begin with strongly cautioning any black families from trusting your little ones in their care. I say this because the last straw that caused me to remove my son was him being blatantly discriminated against and profiled by the teacher and I feel like the center staff as well. The first red flags were the teachers changing almost daily. My son had attended the daycare center for three weeks before I met his lead teacher. Then she was out for months due to a medical leave. My son only attended the center for 6 months and this was his first daycare center experience. Within the first 3 months he was hurt on the playground 3 times. After about the first month or two, I begin to receive behavioral incident notices at least twice per week and he only attended the center 3 days per week. At times they would call me to tell me about his behavior but neglect to mention to me that he had gotten hurt physically. These 'ouchies' were not simply scratches or scrapes that kids get all the time. Twice it was a split fingernail and then a busted limp. It happened so often that I made a point to do my best to pick him up before his teachers left for the day. I begin to feel this way because when I would pick him up he would be with other teachers that seemed really young and inexperienced. That brings me to another major issue - they were so short staffed at times that they would message parents on the morning of saying that they were shorthanded and were seeking volunteers to keep their child at home for the day. Then that escalated to messages/notifications on Fridays stating that specific classrooms would be closed on specific days due to their lack of staff. I met with the Director - Liz and her assistant Tori to establish a behavioral plan for my son. During that meeting, I expressed my concern that it seemed as if they were holding my 2-year-old to a higher standard than even their staff. I was told that they would make sure that the forgetting to notify me that he had gotten hurt would stop. Liz also assured me that he would not transition to a new class without notifying me. Within two weeks that is exactly what happened, also within a week of that meeting - Liz announced that she was leaving the center. Shortly after that we received a notice that both of his original teachers would no longer be working there. The notice came as a huge surprise. One day, I arrived to drop him off and was told that he would be visiting a different class. Next day they just moved him to the next class. In the meantime, when I would drop him off the teacher of the new class would call them to say that she was over ratio. This was of course concerning to me, so I waited until they adjusted the number of students before I left. On the last day, I brought him in and stayed for about 15 minutes to observe him in class and also speak with the teacher. She told me that he was a good boy and that most of the time his behavior was related to him defending his friends. When I got there I was given two incident reports - one due to his behavior and the other because he had fallen and gotten hurt the day before. Of course, this was frustrating. Then I read the behavioral incident. The teacher had written very disturbing things about my 2-year-old son. This was very hurtful and extremely contradictory to what we discussed in person. I told the regional director what happened. She apologized and told me that they would address the report with the teacher and agreed that the teacher should not have written the report in that manner. She also told me that they were in the process of onboarding a more experienced& appropriate teacher. I removed my son that following week. I just could not trust that he was not being mistreated. Parents, don't be fooled by the very nice facility. This center is not a stable, organized center that will be safe for your little ones.

I'm so very glad to see that the kids get to learn and play with each other from many different cultural backgrounds. Ultimately the most important factor here is the faculty.

In addition to offering year-round care for infants through Kindergarten age children, the program is always offering innovative and exciting curriculum that is age-appropriate and follows the High/Scope method. The tuition is actually below-average for the area and we love their flexible scheduling. As a half day is considered up to 4.5 hours, I can actually get a solid morning of work in before picking my little one up before 1 PM for nap-time. In addition, the program is ideal for anyone who is working flex-time jobs or job sharing as the center works with your schedule--need Tues, Wed, Thursday? No problem! It is the only center in the area that offers this program. We also love the Christian component to our child's education. The children say grace before eating and the pre-schooler's attend a short chapel service each week. The best part of Little Lambs has been meeting and becoming friends with the other families. The families are highly involved, everyone knows each other are extremely supportive. Truly a fabulous program in all ways!

The teachers were also incompetent and would say my child had a temp and when I picked him up his was perfectly fine. Regina, was always rude and my child screamed everytime she had him. I was always charged different amounts from his standard tuition, It even got to the point where I had asked for account payment documentation for day to day/ tuition rates and she told me there was no such documentation, are you kidding me?! the things that she would tell me my account was being charged higher amounts than his tuition was ridiculous! When my son first started it was $58 per day than it moved to $62, i understand inflation, however you provide everything from diapers to food, so tuition should not be as high. I have older kids, and from previous daycares were much less with outstanding service! BEWARE of this place if your looking for quality care for your child, they only care about the money, This place is a SCAM, and it's a shame because it's located inside of a church.
