We recently had my 3yr old grandson enrolled here and we had a horrible experience, by the 2nd week…read moreI was looking for other daycares and we had him pulled out of the 6th st La Petite by his 6th week. It is being poorly ran, the director and assistant director act clueless and the people they are hiring are unqualified to be around kids. I was unclear if some of the teachers even like kids with how poorly they treat them. My grandson was not properly integrated into the daycare on his first couple weeks, they ignored him while he was scared and new and balling his eyes out. There is no kind of nurturing that is provided from the teachers. Some of the teachers are cold and mean to the kids. The kids are unsupervised at times and climb the walls and stand on bookshelves, things that could lead to injuries. They also hit each other while the teachers pay no mind. The food offerings are gross and no effort is put into the food-at all. He would have poopy diapers when we would pick him up. They will leave your kid staring at the wall for over 2 hrs at nap time and give them no attention at all. They have live video and it made my stomach turn to watch how poorly he was being cared for, hence why I removed him as quickly as possible. I voiced my concerns and made it clear I was angry and unhappy with their care and Sydney (the director) never attempted to address any of it or even acknowledge it. Do not leave your child here. All you have to do is watch the live video feed and in one day, you'll be appalled at how this place is operating. I honestly don't know how they have any clients at this point. We found an amazing daycare since then and now we can have peace of mind our little guy is getting his needs met while in daycare. Corporate needs to get involved and do something about the 6th St La Petite.

The staff is kind and caring and very patient. This place has been great for our two year old only…read morechild, her language skills have really expanded. Previously she would learn new words if we taught her new words, but now she comes home often with new vocabulary. They have been very flexible with a part time schedule, even when we needed to change our days every now and then. I have some dietary requests that they met with no problems and no attitude. Oh, and I asked and was told that everyone is vaccinated! If you need a full day or part time, this is a good place.

We are so grateful we found THIS Goddard! Our daughter was at a different school last year, and we…read moresaw absolutely no growth. From the day she started at Goddard, she excelled in socialization, academics, self-confidence, and overall growth! The staff is incredible. Lindsey and Ashley are always welcoming and encouraging! There is never a time that we have inquired about information or called to say we might be running late that we weren't welcome with complete understanding and direction. Jeri Dawn the owner, is hands-on, and an incredible leader, she cares deeply about her staff and the children her in school. When choosing a school for my daughter, I researched every school from Lenexa, Overland Park, Leawood, Martin, City, Shawnee, and all surrounding areas. I had interviews with all the schools in those areas, and this Goddard completely stood out. The school is clean, the teachers are knowledgeable and patient, and the school Chef, Larry is exceptional-to the point that any days I do early pick up my daughter requests I get her after lunch. I am extremely mindful and choosing where my daughter spends her day. This is one of those gems in our community. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns This school is amazing. I have to add her teacher Ms Terri is so gifted. She is an incredible teacher and is such an asset to my daughter's development!

I sent my 2 year old to this school after I got recommendation from my neighbor. My daughter came…read morehome with multiple bruises and scratches on her first day. There was no incident report given to us. We asked her teacher what happened, she said she doesn't know. She said that she can't keep track of all 14 children in her room and it is not her fault that my 2 year old was hurt. School/teacher took no responsibility for the incident. we unenrolled her the next day. Don't send your kids here, they don't care about kids at all.

I love STA! I went to high school here and had a great experience with awesome teachers and…read moreextra-curricular activities. STA is a great size for a high school. There were 299 people in my graduating class and I knew most of them fairly well. I was very active in drama and forensics at STA. The coaches and teachers are funny, caring, and positive. I still keep in touch with them. STA is really well-known for their soccer team as well- I think they've won nationals or come close to it every year for the past 8 years! WOOO I also feel like my teachers really cared about my growth and performance as a student. I always felt safe at the school. It's a great place to grow up and learn!

Aquinas is often underestimated by those who attend the more prestigious Catholic schools (Sion, St…read moreTeresa's, Rockhurst) but those who underestimate Aquinas do so at their own peril. The school is full of bright kids who work hard, athletes who compete with all the other strong programs, and students dedicated to service who care for others. Sure, it's cheaper. Doesn't mean it isn't great. Have had a chance to work with a lot of Aquinas students and have even taught a couple classes there. Always been impressed.

Our son has gone here for a couple years and we love this little school! Ashley & Brittany are…read moreamazing and so imaginative with their weekly themes. Our kiddo loves the cooking classes, and comes home with a ton of cute crafts and art projects. It's educational too, I'm constantly learning fun facts that my son teaches me when he comes home each day. We switched him out of a local Montessori where he was coming home sad each day, and I only wish we would have sent him to Rhyme & Reason sooner.

I'm a tough crowd to please when it comes to who can watch my kids and I literally cannot say…read moreenough positive things about this school and the little ladies who run it. The communication is just unmatched. The activities are thoughtful and fun; the curriculum is so thoughtful and sweet. I learn new things from my 3 year old all the time now. The most impressive thing about this school is how well it's run. Ashley and Brittany consider every detail, whether it's a birthday celebration or a fire safety drill, they have things completely under control. I literally cannot think of one negative thing to say. I love these girls and I love their school. If I could give them a billion stars, I would.

Ms Whitney and Ms Gina in the front office are WONDERFUL. They always greet you with a smiling face and are always telling me about the silly things that my son did or said that day. My son loves his teachers and he feel comfortable and safe with them. I feel good leaving my child with them, which is worth it's weight in gold. However, There seems to be a high turnover rate for Directors (at least 4 in 3 years that I can recall) and I can only chalk that up to a poor District Manager.

I want to share my experience regarding my daughter's short time working at Kid City. She worked…read morethere for two months and was treated unfairly, ultimately being fired without explanation. During that time, we noticed several concerning issues with the facility and how it's managed: * The building was often dirty, with visible flies and gnats in the kitchen. * The teachers seemed unprofessional, not maintaining personal cleanliness, and appeared more focused on babysitting than educating the children. * Children were frequently unstructured and sometimes left outside in very cold temperatures. * The staff rarely answered the phone and seemed generally lazy in their responsibilities. * The facility sometimes had unpleasant odors. Based on our experience, I'm honestly surprised the center is still open. I would caution parents and potential employees to carefully consider this before getting involved.

I have a video recording of this incident but it won't let me post…read more This happened at 9am this morning. IF YOUR KIDS ARE IN THE TWOS ROOM OR AT THIS FACILITY IN GENERAL PLEASE REMOVE THEM IMMEDIATELY. This was our last week after only 3 months in their care because it has been unbelievably bad and making multiple reports. I was expecting to talk to the Director about an injury that happened in their care and that's why I was recording. As I was about to leave, the fire alarm starting going off and since I already have issues with ALL of the teachers (minus infant teachers) I went back to see what my Daughters teacher would do. In the Twos room, this teacher was standing there. Frozen. Picked up a crying child and looked around. I stood at the gate watching her and that's when I asked if she knew what her fire drill was. SHE SAID NO AND THAT SHE HAD NO CLUE WHAT TO DO. A passing teacher says it is not a drill and I say that's my Point and why I was asking. IF YOU ARE TAKING CARE OF KIDS YOU BETTER DAMN WELL KNOW WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
