CASTLE OAKS PRESCHOOL & KINDERGARTEN

I recently removed my 2 year old from this location. His teacher Miss Ely was fabulous and we loved her dearly. As a Child Development major myself (bachelor’s degree), 3 permits, and several years of experience I have never seen so many compliance issues in my career. Care and supervision Is an issue here because there is no way the teachers can get daily tasks done (such as kitchen duties) without leaving the children unsupervised. Please call local licensing for their record on compliance issues and citations. Owner is also currently being sued by employee due to a whistle blower law. Finally, I took the time out of my day to write this review to let you know that Maureen tried to scam me out of 165 deposit I gave her when I registered my son. I gave her a 2 week notice notifying her I would be pulling him out and requested my deposit. During the last week she promised to have it Wednesday. Then Friday which was his last day there was nothing. She asked me to come Monday. Finally she said the check was at her sister school (Kidsville). I went there only to have her assistant director tell me they had no record of my security deposit therefor she’d give me nothing. Are you serious? No record of my deposit? Are you saying you allowed me to enroll my child and I didn’t give you a deposit! Lucky for me I kept all receipts and check books and after several twists and turns she signed my check for my deposit back. Beware and save all your receipt because she will try to screw you over!

Love this daycare my eldest has been going there since he was 3 months old, way back in 2011. My youngest started there at 7 months old in 2013. The teachers are great, caring and have lots of experience & patience. We just don’t know what we would do without Ms Ely getting them both potty trained, Ms Consuelo getting them on to solids, Ms Tammy has done a great job of getting the kids prepped for kindergarten & Ms Nancy is just amazing at running the school & as Ms Maureen’s assistant. We simply just love this school, it’s diverse, fun, educational & a place our boys feel comfortable at.
