Childcare Network, Inc. Review

I love the environment and the quality of the staff, everyone would be earning their degree that works at the center and that make me very comfortable leaving my children in their care.

GREAT DAY CARE... TEACHERS AND STAFF ARE GREAT... WOULD RECOMMEND THIS DAYCARE TO ANYONE NEEDING CHILD CARE.

Childcare Network ESPECIALLY the one on University Avenue is the WORSE daycare I have EVER come across. I have had issues with them since I first enrolled my son there. The last incident was yesterday. His jacket mysteriously got wet yesterday (the director couldn't provide me with any answers or explanation) and no one called to notify me of this so he went home yesterday WITHOUT a jacket on as cold as it was yesterday. I am disgusted and very dissatisfied with Childcare Network as a whole. I would not recommend them to anyone. I am to the point where I'd quit my job before I send my child back there. It starts with management and there isn't any at this particular location.

Childcare Network #258 in Lexington, KY is a mediocre daycare for my 2yr old son, but their after school program that my 7yr old daughter goes to is nothing, but trouble. This is place that tolerates bullying because the so called "teacher" is constantly on her phone and/or chatting it up with the kitchen staff (this room is right next to their kitchen). The mentioned teacher (just to point out this is their 4th or 5th teacher within 1yr or less' time, I lost count at this point) shows favoritism to some children and not others. The director is a pushover, all her staff is walking all over her and it doesn't seem that she is in control much of anything. Very poor management and completely no professionalism from these young adults that want to be called teachers in this after school program yet know nothing about parent communication or any kind of communication for that matter. During the election time frame, there were unappropriated "opinions" made to and around the children that really makes me angry because we are a minority so I will let you use your imagination. They don't realize that these 7, 8 and 9 year old kids understand what is being said and they will tell their parents. Common sense at least should be a requirement for this job/position. It seems that there is always something everyday after I pick up my children....I can go on and on. It is just not worth the worry, stress and headache for the money that they are charging. In addition to all this, they have a lot of lights out in the parking lot (you would think with the tuition they charge, they will be on top of this kind of things) Now days the sunset is at 5:30pm, we usually pick up 5:45- 6pm and it's very very dark and unsafe. PLEASE do something about this!!!Any other franchise location may be ok, who knows, but this one is defiantly NOT what the website and brochures say, I know, I was mislead.

Absolutely the best Daycare in Pensacola!! My girls attend CCN #112 and our experience has been nothing but amazing. My 4 year old is currently in the VPK program and has been attending #112 since 2013. After I had my second daughter, the only thing that eased my mind going back to work early was the fact I knew she would be in good hands.The Director (Christine) and Assistant Director (Christina) are amazing at handling their facility and choose only the best teachers to have on board. Everyone on staff I have encountered has always been nice, polite, and you can tell they are there because they truly love helping children. I wouldn't waste your time looking anywhere else!

Childcare Network in Clayton has been a blessing for me and my family. After our very recent move to North Carolina, we were pleased to find such a wonderful learning environment for our son. Ms. Donna was more than helpful during the initial stages of touring the facility, paperwork, and making my husband and I feel like it was the right choice. The school was clean, had great energy, and the teachers seemed very receptive to all my questions. Ms.Candace and Ms. Laura have made the classroom feel like a family environment not only for my son but for all the other children. It give us a sense of security that our son is well looked after and is learning knew things everyday. He's made countless amounts of friends and always comes home excited about what he did that day. Thank you Childcare Network, Ms. Donna, Ms. Candace, and Ms. Laura for all that you do!

Sincerely,

Steve, Dominique, and Lucas LaRosa

My experience with Childcare Network has been great! My son has been in center #188 for 3 years and we've had nothing but positive experiences. The teachers are great and really care about your child.

I would think in the year 2018 that woman with children and the workforce is socially acceptable! I applied for a assistant director position and the hiring person was more interested in what I could do for her rather than seeing my years of experience, education credentials and qualifications. I was addressed in a matter that was discriminatory because I have 4 children. This is not a handicap! I would no way accept a position here after understanding the motivation of the director! Rather than being family oriented she wanted to hire someone who would not be a burden to her! Basically, the interview was about her prior experience with her assistant and needing me to cookie cut myself into that role of being available on a snap. Her needing me on call at home is fine with me, but the whole interview was her skeptics of not wanting to mess up her role as opener and the assistant as closer. She was very skeptical of my children attending the center as well! The interview process was very un-inviting with zero flexibility for a mother to have a career here! No boss should ever make you feel that your children should come second. Very unprofessional! Negitive one star

We've been attending Childcare Network for 5 years now and love it. The children love the activities and their teachers. I have recommended this school before and will continue to do so. I can't imagine going anywhere else.

For years I only trusted Little Ponderosa in Sunnyvale, unfortunately they refused to take my daughter to school- even though it was in Sunnyvale and we were forced to find a new day care in the 11th hour. A friend of mine referred me here and I am thankful she did. Although at the time Childcare Network did not take the Sunnyvale bus route in the morning because they had no children to take, they still took my daughter in with open arms a created a morning bus route just for her. She also gets warm breakfast in the morning, and is super excited to have summer break because thier field trips are not the run of the mill ones that she has been enduring for years. So happy to have her in the new daycare, I literally have to drag her out everyday instead of drag her in everyday!

Childcare Network is a joy to have. This is a great time for her to learn and grow while we are at work. As a new parent, I find a great sense of knowing that my child can be in a loving, caring and learning environment during the week while I work. Keep up the awesome job of tending to our future as we prepare our greats for greater things.

The worse. Do not send your child to this centerl. The staff is horribly unqualified, they make too many excuses and not clean. I m sure there s more but this should be enough for you to run. Hope the state shuts this place down!
