| - It's a great place to take your children to not only play and learn but to be able to socialize or learn to socialize amongst their age. This location is always clean. You can see after every class the workers start wiping down all the equipment, etc...I surely appreciated a good wipe down after each class. Also, they rotate their equipment around to change the layout so it doesn't become.montonous for the children which I thought was great!
The pricing varies depending which activity you want your child in. They are very flexible with missed days so don't worry about having to miss a day then losing it as you can make it up or double up in a week with another class as long as it is within the same price value. There is no contract as it is a month-to-month plan. Should you choose to cancel give them at least a couple (2 days for those who don't realize what a couple means...lol) days notice. I'd share prices but I'd hate to type it all out considering prices could have or will change.
No 5 stars, unfortunately, because after a few weeks my child grew a dislike to a particular teacher. I had literally seen through the room a child picking at my child. My son kept telling him to stop but the kid wouldn't quit. Finally, when my son reacted, the teacher reacted towards my son not knowing the whole story. I felt bad for him (no bias) as I knew my child was not at fault. However, I chose not to mention it because in reality, it won't be the first or last time something in a classroom setting that will occur where I can't control the situation. However, I have expectations when it comes to "teachers" in how you mediate a situation. The first and only time I've ever seen my son scream, cry, and stiffen in his seat, refusing to even unbuckle...was here.
After a few trips of him doing that and me having to turn around home, I decided to cancel. When I requested to cancel, the owner (in a friendly manner) attempted member retention...i explained to her for some days now I've driven all the way here just to turn around as my son would scream in torture the moment we pulled into the parking lot. She advised he'll be fine and boys this age typically respond that way midpoint, and despite his crying to just leave him. Umm...no. Hell no would I be able to leave my child screaming and crying for the sake of and assume he will be fine, eventually. She doesn't know my child, he will NOT be fine...eventually. I once did that to my oldest son at the same age, and he developed an anxiety for several years because of a similar experience. Not good. Will never do that again.
Would I have loved to keep my child enrolled? Sure! I would've kept him in if I were able to even calm him down, talk him through it, etc...but I had never seen him nor any of my other children act like this, and it just wasn't worth the stress to put on him. We have been going to pre-k classes elsewhere since then without incident. He is excited and eager and happy. Loves his teacher! So going with mama instincts didn't fail me.
Not sure if the particular teacher is still there, but if so...she might want to try another industry. While I had no personal issues with her, I never once found her to be wonderful. My son's response was only confirmation that he too was not amused.
Anyway, I always say never let my experience deter you. While there are other stories I could blab about...it just wouldn't be fair. If you're looking to socialize your child in a controlled and safe environment, or to get your child's foot wet before school age...certainly worth the shot. Despite our experiences which led to our cancellation, I think it's a great place with all the right staff and worth the shot.
