What parents say

I do not leave negative reviews lightly, but after our experience, I feel it’s important to share our concerns for other families considering this daycare. There were only two teachers during our time there who consistently provided the level of care and professionalism I expected: DaLynn and Chloe. They were kind, attentive, and genuinely cared about the children. Unfortunately, they were the exception rather than…

The creative world school would be a great place to send your kids if it was under different management. Kelsey the director of the school is unprofessional, unreliable, and untrustworthy. I would not trust sending my kids to this school under her supervision. She is know to be inappropriate with other teachers and picks and chooses who gets special treatment.

Briley Tanton · 1/5 on Google · a year ago

We love the teachers on the Dolphin class, they are very nice and out daughter loves them. We are so happy with the school since day one, the communication is key for us and we have found it in this school. The director and assistant director are great, they are on top of everything and it shows on the teachers and kids. After having a bad experience at a different school we were worried in the beginning, but since…

Atenea Perez · 5/5 on Google · 3 years ago

I recently enrolled my kids in this preschool, and it has been an amazing experience. The staff is highly professional, creating a conducive learning environment where my kids are thriving. Despite initial hesitations from reading past reviews, after a year, I can confidently say it was the best decision - my kids love going to school and are learning a lot. Highly recommended!
