    I've never had my child here and I never would. They have a worker here who is crazy and unstable. He's trying to kill himself multiple times and has a problem with drugs. I would NOT trust him with my child. I've had first had experience with him. He is an awful person. Be cautious!!

    This place is a huge, profound disappointment.

    We have a four year old boy who is rather adventurous and spirited, and can sometimes be a bit of a handful. We shared these concerns with the owner Dilip, and he assured us that the school had lots of experience dealing with high-energy kids, and would be more than capable of caring for our son and helping him thrive in their environment.

    We still had a few reservations about the dated facility and somewhat dour staff, but ultimately decided to enroll. That turned out to be a huge mistake.

    From almost day one we started getting incident reports about our son. These reports ranged from the wholly pedestrian "didn't lay down and sleep quietly during nap time" (when we expressly shared that our son was over napping, and had been told he would be able to play quietly during nap time instead)-- to the pedantic "wanted to play in the big kids playground, rather than be confined to the toddler area" (he's four, and probably one of the oldest kids in the class). We've had our son in other preschools, and were frankly shocked at both the volume and raw triviality of these "incidents" they kept reporting. After a couple weeks, it quickly became clear that the teachers had singled out our son, and were working together in concert to build a case to expel him.

    From there they proceeded to offer banal reports of him being "generally disruptive" (it's a preschool, geniuses, four-year-olds tend to 'disrupt' things sometimes), and continued to show a total and absolute lack of interest in working with him or helping coordinate around a solution. Ultimately, they called us in four weeks into his tenure and told us they were kicking him out.

    Here's the thing: If you have a placid, docile little lamb of a kid, you'll probably do fine at this school (congrats, by the way). Their teachers should be able to keep up, assuming your kid is compliant and largely willing to sit in a corner for eight hours a day. If you have a kid with a modicum of energy, however, I'd run screaming from this place.

    If you value energy and creativity over torpid compliance, do yourself a favor and burn rubber.
