Parent Testimonials
Don't just take our word for it! Our parents rave about our preschool programs and services. Here's what some of them have to say:
"Children learn in their own way. I met with Ms. Connie and wanted to find out their method of teaching. Ms. Connie's background is very impressive. She ran a Montessori school in the Philippines; I'm very familiar with their philosophy as I went to one." - Paola V
"Your child will be cared for. If you are looking for a preschool where your child will be cared for as well as have the chance to excel academically, this is the place for you!" - Parent Testimonial
Unreliable and Unprofessional Staff
The reviews for Little Bear Daycare clearly indicate that the owner, Lori, is unprofessional, unkind, and physically confrontational. Parents have shared disturbing stories of her screaming at and berating children and staff. Additionally, the school's staff seems to be overstressed, which affects their ability to provide quality care to the children.
Mixed Reviews: Cleanliness and Educational Environment
Despite the issues with Lori's behavior, some parents have had positive experiences with the school. They praise the cleanliness of the facility, the friendliness of the staff, and the educational environment. Some children have even learned new skills and developed good social skills during their time at Little Bear.
Communication Issues
However, some parents have reported issues with communication, stating that the staff is unresponsive or unprofessional when dealing with concerns or questions. This lack of transparency and respect towards parents is a significant concern.
