Extend-A-Care For Kids

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the EAC infant/​toddler program. The two main teachers there, Mary Alice and Yarlen, are the most amazing women, and I trust them entirely with my son. They are always so happy and caring. I get a full report at the end of the day about how my Son did. He really loves it also, he gets very excited when we arrive and immediately starts playing. He has been in the program since 7.5 weeks old. I also have my daughter in one of EAC’s preschool programs, which has been really great as well. She has learned so much since starting the program, and she loves her teachers.

Great Program! Mary Alice the site director is amazing! She is very caring and does a great job making every child feel special! Mrs. Yarlen the asst teacher did a great job with my baby girl!

Worst after school program, seriously the entire staff rolled over at least 3 if not 4 times during the school year. The communication between staff/​administration and parent is totally lacking. I would pick my son up and ask them how he was and I would get a shrug along with «ok». That isn’t acceptable to me at all in the least. There was no consistency and as a result majority of the children just plain did not listen and I observed this on many occasions. The staff, while all very nice were merely children themselves and they allowed my child to listen to music that I did not think was appropriate for a 7 year old and they carried on with adult themed conversations in front of the children as well. We will not be returning next year and I will be contacting the administration at my son’s school to inform them of the conditions that the program exposes children to.

I was so anxious for my daughter to start a full-​time daycare and I looked around for months for a place I liked. I heard a lot about other more popular daycares downtown but this one was by far the best! Small class sizes (the most I’ve seen in her class at one time was four kids and that was with two teachers). She’s always bringing home art projects and learning so quickly. The staff there truly loves the children. Most of the kids there have parents who work in the building so it’s like they adopted my daughter in to their group. Love their program and if you have a little infant I’d highly recommend checking them out as they serve babies from newborns to 2 years old.
I love that it’s close to downtown (where I work) and very affordable. but the staff take the cake.
