I absolutely love this school. All of the staff treat my children so well. Mr. Steve and Michelle have worked with me through anything I have ever needed and gone above and beyond to provide whatever they can to help me and my children out. Their daughter is amazing as well. Mr. Eli, their son, is an amazing physical education teacher. This school really knows how to prepare these students to be incredible adults. They are consistently working on character traits. Under the preschool program which both of my children are now in, so they have been through the daycare program and now the preschool program, my daughter knows her bones from her cranium to her patella to her phalanges. She was in Ms. Elias class for the past year, and I couldnt have picked a better teacher if I paid 100k a year for her schooling. I along with a few other parents all had the opportunity to come in on different days, even unannounced to watch the children throughout the day and observe what they do. It was incredible to watch how easily ms. Elia was able to keep the children focused and on task. She knew when it was time for them to get their silly juices flowing and give them a dance break to help them get it out of their system. She never once lost her cool and was so loving on all of them. I have frequent interaction with her and watch her as much as I can as my daughter is so attached to her so I like to know whats going on and what she likes and doesnt like. There is a little boy that was in her class who was going through some things at home who acts out quite frequently. Ms. Elia did allow him to play on his own when he needed to. I feel like that is a much better option than forcing the child to sit with the other students and cause him distress and then have an outburst to hit the other children. This child is a sweet child and very loving but can cause great harm to other children when upset by throwing rocks at them or hitting or whatever the case may be. My daughter has been hurt several times by him, but it has always been addressed and the teachers all worked together to come up with a solution that encouraged every child to work peacefully and at their own speed. They were also extremely quick to explain to me what the situation was and what their plan of actions were. Before I could even ask why the little boy wasnt sitting with the rest of the class, ms. Elia took me to the side so the other children were unaware and explained to me what this accomplishes for everyone. But, he was still called on frequently and was paying attention to her lessons and knew the answers almost every single time. He was still paying attention and just chose to have his quiet time and not be overwhelmed by stimulation from the other children. Now that my family is going through a similar situation that the little boys family was going through, I see the changes it makes in children and it does cause quite a disturbance in their behavior. I am so thankful for this school that is walking me through it and I know my children are in great hands during the day and I fought to get them back to this school as quickly as possible when their dad hid them and put them in a new daycare behind my back. The other school, His little Angels was uncooperative even with court orders and refused to even have a parent teacher conference with my childrens teachers let alone witness what goes on during the day as it would disrupt the children.. habitat for learning has had no issues with it and the children do get excited to see a parent in the class, for 10 seconds.. then they are more excites to show how great they are doing and what all they are learning. Like the planets and Pluto being a dwarf planet, and that we live in North America and listing all the continents. At 3 years old this was amazing to me. They learned about their different cells, red, blue and white and their functions. They learn about proper diet and what foods contain what like chicken has protein and milk has calcium and what those words mean and how they work in your body. Its amazing!

Not at all up to standards on how a daycare should be run. I have seen two of the teachers yelling at the children, and just being plain rude. My child had nail marks dug into him, and when I asked about it..all the director could say was that it JUST HAPPENED. He explained that he was on the phone and my son was being difficult so he grabbed him to pull him out of the classroom. Then he had finger marks that were a deep blotted red on his upper arm, and he couldnt explain to me what happened. He admitted that had done the nail marks, but tried to justify it by saying it just happened and that he had nails.Patience is definitely needed when working with children, and to put it simply; they just dont have it.Needless to say, I changed daycares.

Very nice and helpful people and my son is always happy to go.

My child loves this establishment and always says how wonderful the teaches are.

If you want your child to be safe and in the best of hands this is not the place to keep your children. It seems like a wonderful at first. The owners have very charismatic personalities, which is misleading. They do not care about your child.I thank the lord that I worked there and saw what was going on. Do not be deceived! This place is terrible. They do not have a zero tolerance policy towards violence. If I teacher lays her had on a child they will not do anything about it. As in, “sometimes teachers just have a bad day”.When I saw this I reported it to my boss, cps, and even went to the police station to file a report. No one cared. The teacher is also still employed there.Do not trust your child with Miss Elia. She does not possess the patience to speak to your child with respect. She does not have the character or capability to practice restraint when she becomes angry. She pinched children, mocked them, yelled constantly, threw things at them, pushed them into walls, yanked them by the arm and pulled them to the ground. If your child goes home with a bruise, it was her, I put my money on it!!! She plays favorites and the ones that she doesnt care about are left to do whatever they want. She will punish them the children that she hates and she will for the most part ignore them. One child in particular was left out of the games to play by himself in the corner. My heart broke for this little boy. He was the smartest one in the class. I encouraged him to do his work and he did it very quickly… I never once had to raise my voice to get those results.Every detail of what she did was reported. No one cared. They cant afford to fire her because they are so short staffed. But theres a reason they cant keep people as teachers and caregivers. People of quality cant tolerate the neglect and abuse, and those who do stay take advantage of their power. Most spend their days complaining about having to watch the children. And as a mother of one of the students this concerned me. If something happened and my child was put in danger I didnt trust the employees to see that he was safe. I wouldn’t trust them to be honest about it either.The building is in shambles. I dont know how it passed inspection. I almost suspect some under the table pay offs. My last day working there, there was a thunderstorm watch and not once did anyone come to tell me the storm plan. The alarm went off and still no one came to give me instruction. (If the storm had been more serious like a tornado... forget it. Wed have all died.)Half of the building flooded and ceiling tiles were falling on children. So all the children were put into one room with a couple teachers. The rest of the teachers were cleaning up the water. When I went to check on my son I saw that the room had far too many children in it. I could barely walk through and I was scared of stepping on someone. I took my son into the room I was working in so that at least I could know that under my watch he would be safe. No one noticed that he was gone for several hours. And when they did notice they wouldnt allow him in the room with me. Their reasoning was that I needed to stick to state regulations; regulations that they ignored in the instance of child abuse.The hypocrisy infuriated me. I quit and pulled my son out of the program. We will not be back.The directors are very smart people. They know exactly how to evade responsibility, and mark my words they will. They care more about their income than their mission.I only worked there so that I could see my son throughout the day because I missed him. And Im so glad that I got to see what was really going on!!! I care about my son more than I have words to say. And while I dont expect them to have the same love for him that I do, I do expect so much more out of his childcare. I understand that this facility is cheaper than most because it is nonprofit, in this case you get what you pay for, sometimes much less than that.

Everyone hates it other than the workers who rated it 5 stars
