Ready-Set-Grow

This school is a joke! It’s dirty, unsafe, and the teachers may not even be eligible to take care of kids. I would not recommend this school to anyone. Please! If you love your kids, do not send them here. Like they, «you get what you pay for.» 0 stars. Nothing positive to say about it.

I believe that readysetgrow preschool have helped my child excel further than what we could have been at home. The staff is wonderful and he loves every one of them. I can’t believe how much you’ve grown since he began preschool. Just in the last two years he has had several advancement including potty training with the help of the staff at the school and help with his speech and writing. Thank you so much to all of the staff at the school for making my son what he is today.

Our son Andrew jr. Has been at Ready Set Grow preschool since he was 2 ½, he’s now almost 5. He will be beginning Transitional kindergarten soon. We are so pleased with the staff at the school. They have helped with potty training all the way to writing. My son has had the most wonderful teachers. The school has lots of family events and no child is left behind. They each get equal attention. I would recommend this school to any of my friends.

Our experience in the last 3.5 years:
— We worked together to get my breastfed baby to drink fr a bottle.
–My child was potty trained and taught to verbally express her feelings by 2.5
–She is learning Spanish, numbers, alphabets, animals, colors, songs and etc
— One time, I forgot to inform that our babysitter was to pick my eldest. They refused her. Pass on security with flying colors.
— My child comes home often with nicely braided hair.
–They have various activities ie. grandparents day, crazy hair day, green outfit day, pony riding. My fav is the harvest festival with a haunted house involving the older kids.
–My child enjoys the ballet and tap dance class (extra cost).
–Monthly newsletter, food menu and weekly syllabus are posted.
— The teachers willingly talk abt the progress of my children.
–We get occasional group E-​mails.
— Whenever we are out of diapers, wipes or clothes, I am informed.
— Whenever our children are not feeling well, I get a phone call.
Sure, there are other daycares that boast academic excellence with great marketing websites and shiny pamphlets. We were tempted to move MANY times but our eldest is learning a lot, happy, confident and well socialized. We plan to continue using this school as long as they keep the wonderful teachers that they already have.

I don’t even know where to begin with this review… when the police officer left my house he told me to leave a review on Unilocal… so here I am. Before you enroll your child at Ready Set Grow (or any daycare) PLEASE call Social Services and ask about the citations against this daycare. It’s free! I didn’t do it when I enrolled my child and I paid for it. Everything was great in the beginning and then one day I went to pick up my child and he wasn’t wearing any pants. His pants were soaked in urine! When I asked why they didn’t call me, they told me «I don’t know.» I asked why they didn’t text me and they said «I don’t know.» They also told me he had been bit that day by another child. When I asked for all the biting incident reports they were no where to be found. I could write a million more things but I just ask that you PLEASE call social services and ask about this daycare’s citations. Don’t enroll your kids here, especially small children that can’t talk!

I’ve inquired about this daycare several times and the gentleman I spoke to (assistant director) seemed to be very nice on the phone. However, when I came to tour the place, Norma the director is who I met. When I arrived, she did not seem very welcoming or friendly. She did not even introduce herself nor extend her hand out to shake my hand as a business professional should. I was the one who introduced myself and extended my hand out to her. She quickly showed me around and did not take the time to explain the daily curriculum and activities. When I asked about the daily actvities, she would answer, «it’s there on the wall,» as she pointed to a piece of paper posted on the wall, expecting me to read it myself. Then, when I asked about taking an application form to enroll my daughter, she said, «we just don’t give out applications to anybody. When you’re ready to pay for her, then I’ll give you an application.» I was shocked as to how cold and rude she seemed to be. I would pay 4 times more elsewhere for my daughter than to spoken to in such a manner. I would never recommend anyone to this place simply because of this person. It’s a shame this business allows someone to speak to potential clients in such a rude and uninviting matter.

This daycare/​preschool looks very nice from the outside. However 2^nd day into it and I hated it!!! Everyone there seems so distant from the kids like a jail warden only making sure they dont hurt themselves! I keep buying sweaters for my son that are never returned and all the dishes I send breakfast in are not returned either. The last straw is not notifying me if he hurts himself at school nor when he gets a bit sick… The only reason i kept him there was because of his teacher, but is not enough anymore, I’m looking for a new daycare as I speak.
