The staff of Children’s Choice is incredible. They have helped my son with his school work and have provided child care when we need it the most. I recommend them to everyone because my son has never had a better childcare experience. Thank you so much to every one in the office and the counselors at his school that take care of him by making sure he stays on track with school and has fun!

I am very picky about where I send my children for care. Children’s choice is a wonderful place. My child feels happy, enriched, and safe when here. Thank you for all you do CC!

When I come to pick my daughter up she is disappointed and wants to stay at Childrens Choice. She loves it and loves all the staff and activities and crafts. And super excited about Summer camp she loves this too. I feel that my daughter is safe and well cared for but eh staff and they are all respectful and speak to the children like they are little people. A much needed comfort for a working parent knowing her daughter is happy and having fun in a safe environment with cool young staff. Thank you all!

My child recently finished Summer Camp at Inez Elementary, and our experience was outstanding! We felt very comfortable with the staff and the environment, and really enjoyed our time there. I highly recommend their summer camp program.

I am pretty picky about where I send my kiddos as I have one kiddo with a disability and can be pretty tough at times. I cant express how grateful I am to the folks at CC for listening to me, brainstorming, and understanding. My kids not only have time for learning, but also have time for free play and fun which I think is missing from kids lives now. Thanks CC!

I dont have direct experience with this youth-serving organization. However, I attended one of their workshops at the most BOOST conference in Palm Springs, California and I must say that they have the right answers. Particularly in the area of staff commitment, engagement, and performance. Theyve implemented a lot of Disneys practices in their culture and have emphasized the value of their front-line staff. I truly appreciated the training and plan on adopting some of their practices in my work as well. Thanks for such an interactive and insightful workshop!

All 3 of my children have attended childrens choice. My oldest is 18 and my youngest is 6. The site directors and caregivers are so awesome and have worked me and my family for years being that I have one very difficult child. I would recommend childrens choice to every parent who wants great childcare and more! Me and child are both greeted when we walk in, communication is on point, my child goes on lots of field trips at no extra charge, swimming twice a week at no extra charge(during summer). Staff play games with children, lots of art, slime making, projects, learning experiences and much more! Not to mention homework time during the school year. Thanks childrens choice!

My daughter has been going to Childrens Choice for 2 years now and loves it! The staff is all about the kids and she always has a great time there! The great thing is this year the trips are free so even a better value! Thank you to Christy who goes out of her way to make the kids feel welcome as well as the parents!

Very unhappy with my experience. Signed my son up for summer school after explaining that he is autistic, struggles with transition and being assured in advance that they will assist me with his transition. After 3 hours on day 1, they dismissed him saying that he displays unsafe behavior. Not a single person was willing to go above and beyond to help him - just too much effort. Not to mention that they gave it all of 3 hours of effort. So dont be fooled by their marketing, as someone else on here mentioned it is just another daycare with limited interest from staff to help.

I went in with a friend just to check in things when they were not aware of a prospective parent and they were very unprofessional. Their was food all over during snack,kids were not.monitored well. For cleanup time kids are allowed without gloves to pickup trash off the floor. After sweeping and other duties kids did they were not then told to wash their hands.Also, some of the employees were not enthusiastic about activities they were doing with the little ones especially after all the money they charge to have kids looked after.No thanks!

I feel that I should post this because even though their staff for the most part are kind and fun, the staff and main office also will stand behind their views to teach the kids (who are all K-5) about gods and goddesses which they capitalize as Gods and Goddesses in their before and after school program. This activity is a jeopardy game to teach the kids all about foreign gods and goddesses to make sure the kids know what each deity is known for in other countries. (so when your child is confused over which god to pray to at the dinner table, you will know why.) The staff and office will back their beliefs about how they are teaching about world religions by teaching in this way - and how this activity is a childrens choice activity, but the truth is, they are misleading the children by this . They not teaching about Jesus and the Gospels, or Moses and the Ten commandments and the Torah, or about the Quran, which would have been included if they were actually teaching about world religions as they put it. They are only teaching about polytheism and many gods, which the Bible says that God, the Most High (there is only one Most High ) says, Thou shall not have any gods before me as the number one commandment. And Jesus said that by loving God with all our hearts that we automatically love and obey Him , which fulfils the law. That being said, these people are not doing honoring that and no one will tell you that your child is about to learn about every deity ever known when you sign up simply because an employee has experience in this subject (who will also tell you that you simply dont have to bring your child on the day he teaches about deities because he feels somehow its absolutely necessary to overlook what God has said in their curriculum of activities) . They simply do not know how much peace they would bring to each family BY teaching about Jesus, and God , which would increase Gods favor and increase the peace of the lives of many- including their own.Additionally, they also have a lot of potion-making classes as they are passing off as Harry Potter activities as natural and normal , which this is the first program I have ever taken my children or grandchild to that has the highest amount of potion making, wand making, and a segment on spells as well. It is my guess from the extremely high number of potion making classes that someone on staff is either an extreme Harry Potter enthusiast or perhaps has a Wiccan background (but they will tell you it is all the childrens choice - which, by the way, how many times does your child actually ask you for a potion class? Exactly!) . When you take your child to a child care program, you would expect to learn about arts, crafts, fun games and activities, perhaps dancing or singing, or anything that would be of high values- really just any way a child can have fun (within excellent values and boundaries). You can tell some of the people really care about being there and genuinely care about the kids. They provide a safe environment as well, but they wont tell you that they stand behind teaching about deities, without teaching about Jesus or God the Most High, and they wont tell you about the umpteen million potion classes. They wont tell you that they have activities named evil pokemon where some kids are evil pokemon and some are good pokemon, the good pokemon have to tag the evil ones to make them all good - which, why in the WORLD would you want your child can be labeled as evil at all for any reason? They could just as easily have used the words super and mega pokemon or use some other type of word that parents or grandparents would expect a child care facility to do. There is nothing positive about evil and should have never been included as a name of an activity for young children After speaking about this with a few other parents, I found out that I am not the only parent that feels this way, and I feel the need to let other parents know.
