My son is a current student at Great Start, and we are incredibly happy with the program, the teachers, and the environment. As an Early Childhood professional myself, who has done tremendous amounts of research within the field and runs trainings for programs, I am confident that my son is in an environment where he is learning through play, supported through social-emotional situations, and guided to learn in a developmentally appropriate approach. Great Start is a magical place that allows kids to be kids, while also supporting their growth, and I highly recommend the program.

First off I'd like to say this is not meant to be a negative review. I found this place because it was on my way to work and reasonably priced but a couple things on the website that was advertised were not available anymore. Anyways did the tour and explained my sons behaviors and how he could sometimes be be difficult and was told to go ahead and sign him up anyways so i was very excited for him to start as it was his first preschool experience. everyone was really nice and communicated well throughout the days and that was nice but my son started having behaviors and was called twice to pick him up. well as summer approached as I was excited for him to start the summer program I was concerned maybe he was becoming a bit too much for them to handle so I called and asked if it was an issue and was advised they didn't have the extra staff to handle him one on one as it takes away from the other kids which I completely understand. I just wish they would have told me from the beginning or sooner that this would possibily be an issue and I feel like I got him used to something that he did look forward to everyday and had to take him from suddenly. AGAIN not meant to be negative and i appreciate all the staff. .

Loved this school for my child because of the farm animals and the western playhouses. Outdoor space for the kids to be kids. Most importantly the focus being on God/Guidance. The teachers were sweet, always kind and patient with the kids. Could be a little more nurturing/welcoming not all but some. My kid loved bringing a lunch daily. To much change was happening within the center/ our schedule so my child's needs at that time were not being met. Classrooms could use more lighting and different activity center switch outs weekly, if not bi-weekly. More pictures and direct communication with parents would benefit this center and the kids. 3 stars only because of the miscommunication on my kids last day and a voicemail going out to the wrong person and not to the primary parent that same day.
