I am the music and performing arts teacher here and I will say this. I take music very seriously. I am a musician and producer so pretty much this is my life. As far as me being mean I have every right and reason to push these children to their full potential when it comes to music. I accept nothing less than their best. This is why we now have three successful concerts and a graduation under our belts. Youre not going to get some guy playing a guitar singing with sock puppets you are getting the real deal. Oh and truth be told no other day care is going to have a program like mine at the level Im doing it at. The children who have been in band with me can read music and play real instruments.the kids who have done dance with me have learned different styles of dance and this year we are going go to the next level for singing and instrumentation and this summer we are going to do some acting and present a play with the kids who join our summer program. Of course Im not looking for the next Beethoven but as long as they want to learn it can and will be a fun experience and once they taste the sweet taste of victory as they just not too long ago have with their Christmas concert it makes them want to keep going and improve their skills for the next event which will be this spring and one for the summer. The process might not be pretty but the end result is and if any child steps out of line yes I will discipline and take full control of my classroom. I dont put up with disrespect on any level so if that makes me mean then Im the meanest of them all. Thank you for reading :-) come back and see us real soon.

I would go somewhere else. In all honesty, this is the ONLY daycare center out of 4 that my kids have been to that they cried when I dropped them off. My 18 month old would scream and grip so tightly when I would leave her there. This is the only daycare this has happened with. Upside was that at 17 months she could count to 10 and had started potty training. However, even my 5 year old would cry too when I would leave her there. She said the teachers would slam on the tables and would come home with nothing but disappointment in herself. She would be given a list of spelling words like "dinosaur" (or something like that) and come home crying because she FAILED her spelling test. A FIVE YEAR OLD! She was losing her confidence in herself. She said the music teacher always told them they were bad kids. I feel as though the daycare is more about curriculum than building kids up.

What is up with the music teacher posting a review for HIMSELF?! I have heard terrible things about this place and his review only confirmed this. Yes, I am a classically trained musician and NO I wouldnt send my tiny ones into your mean hands-- "I will take full control of my classroom," yeah.. Thats really how you teach children the love of learning or music. Shame and control. SMH at you people who get your ego needs met by controlling little tiny people. How dare you. Youll realize one day what a waste it was and how much you couldve enjoyed and come to love them if youd only embraced them for what they are: beautiful children!

Our 3 1/2 year old has been going here for about a month now. He has his good days and bad days, but is always in a great mood when we pick him up. He shows us all his papers from the days classes and gushes over how much he enjoys all the teachers and staff. We are so happy with how well structured this daycare is. The staff do a great job to keep us well informed about the progress of our son. Away from school, our friends and babysitter even remark on how much more socially engaged and talkative he has become.

I love this daycare!! The owner is very caring and knowledgeable of each student that walks into her daycare every morning. She is always checking up on them during the day and making sure they are using all of their opportunities to learn in the classroom. I love the staff and all the effort they put into their job. I appreciate the love I have seen there. Everybody is ready to learn and grow together

I personally love the care here. Everyone is really friendly and sweet and any place that can keep up with our active four year old is a great place for us! He also learns so much here. I think the curriculum is really great and the schedule is really good too! I would recommend this facility to anyone looking for reliable and affordable daycare with some really nice caregivers and teachers!

DO NOT use this childcare facility if you love your child dearly and want him/her in a loving environment. My child will never go back to this facility. I never had to deal with DHS until my child went to Mccoy & Littlejohn.
