*Long Review* but I’m going to give this center an honest review. My son attended this school from 10 months old to July ‘24. It’s started out well. He adjusted to the school, director, and owner after some time. And I say the owner Nancy and director Courtney because those are the only constant figures. The other teachers come in for a few months and are gone as quickly as they came. We experienced ups and many downs with this school. I have seen parents in full work uniform be turned around if they forgot the daily folder or blanket having to rush to go retrieve it in time to make the cut off time to check in and get to work as well really disheartening. I have had to leave work more times than I can count for harmless things. Don’t get me started on the threatening messages they send. I picked my child up one day and I thought it was an allergic reaction he had and reported it to the owner and come to find out it was bed bug bites on his back. I spoke with a former parent and she confirmed the same for her son. If you’re looking for a school where they can play all day and watch TV this is the school for you. Oh and be prepared to pick your child up filthy and full of dirt it’s insane! In May ‘24 we were put in a dangerous situation that included a hospital stay due to their negligence. Needless to say I have many regrets in that situation. In the midst of all that my son was having a rough time and we really wanted to help our son through his rough patch. So me and his father talked with him as best as we could about his behavior. I wanted to go to the school to watch secretly to see what was the triggers for my son and the reason for the daily write ups at the door. I was denied that. I was told the other parents wouldn’t want a stranger watching their kids. Mind you my son has been there since 10 months old the longest except for 2 others. The parents walk up to me and say how he waves and hugs them every morning they know me and him. I said ok so we are going nowhere here so we silently enrolled him elsewhere but he wouldn’t be able to start until August. I pulled him out and while we waited to start the new school I was full of anxiety. My son was painted as a problem child for so long I was afraid he wouldn’t be accepted. Well here we are almost a month in. My fears have been put to rest. His new director wanted to let me know how exceptional my son is doing and how they enjoy working with him. He has his moments but like myself they have found even ground to work with him on. He is also being potty trained like he is at home at school FINALLY. We regressed because the new teacher was not told he was being potty trained. So she asked why he had pull ups and wanted to know was he being potty trained?sigh. I am glad I removed him from a playhouse and enrolled him into a great well rounded school. Which happens to be connected to one of the best child care centers in St. Tammany. Oh and guess what on the first day I forgot his blanket because I was nervous for my son. They said mom it’s ok we have dozens he can choose, from can you believe it?!?!? To wrap this up if you read all of this thank you. I give them one star because I have to and their price is dirt cheap and needs to be. Don’t sell your kid short I know the climate we live in financially it’s hard to make transitions like this but if you can please avoid this place at all cost. Just for that peace of mind.

My daughter has been attending this school for a while now. She has learned so much here and absolutely loves them. I love all the teachers there they have really made me feel safe with my daughter going there being a first time mom. They are great at keeping me informed and they have a great way on interacting with the kids. I highly recommend this daycare for many reasons. My daughter loves it so much and so do I.
