Highland Playschool (Little Builders Learning Center)

"I have been a lead Pre-k teacher at Little Builders for over a year now. I absolutely love working at this school. I have been teaching for almost 11 years and have worked at many different centers, none of which I have enjoyed as much as working here. The teachers actually care about the children. Everyone treats each other like family. I can truly say I love coming to work each day. Everyone is respectful and friendly. The director Mrs. Cara is great at working with the families and the staff. The center is clean and always ready for the students each day. The Curriculum is wonderful and it really helps prepare the Pre-k students for kindergarten. No matter what room you walk into at LBLC the children are always engaged and learning as well as having their daily needs met. If I had children I would place them at LBLC before putting them in any other childcare center just from experience working at other places in the area. I could say a million good things about working here and being apart of this school. If you are looking for childcare I highly recommend you schedule a tour with us and see what we are all about. If you are looking for employment and would like to be apart of this great center do not hesitate to apply. LBLC is the best!!!!! I have never experienced anything the negative reviews have said on here as long as I’ve been working at LBLC. :)"

"We love Little Builders! Both of our daughters (ages 1 & 4) are students there, and we have had a very positive experience. Our oldest daughter has been there since she was 3 months old and is now moving up to the Pre-K class. She is learning and growing every day and is excited to go to school. The teachers and staff are caring, attentive, responsive, and knowledgeable. They provide a good mix of learning and fun in a safe environment. The summer program is fun and includes weekly waterplay, Kona Ice, and 4 field trips - the trips are well planned and fun for the kids. The Director, Cara, does an amazing job of organizing, planning, and communicating with parents. Never have we had a bad experience with any of the teachers. Our youngest is in the infant room and is always sent home with fresh diaper, items from the day collected in a bag, and clean clothes. They do artwork a couple times a week - lots of cute feet and hand prints, and fingerpainting. The are very creative crafters! Its unfortunate that a previous reviewer had such a bad experience because that has not been the case for us at all, and we have been there for 4 years. Our children have always been safe, clean, and well cared for. We do not hesitate to recommend Little Builders, and have done so many times whenever we encounter someone looking for childcare!"

"I definitely recommend Little Builders! It is such a caring and friendly environment where both my children thrive. Wonderful teachers who are very responsive and flexible; great curriculum throughout the year and a fun summer program! My older daughter went to the Pre-K program and was completely prepared for Kindergarten! My younger daughter did great in the "Preschool" room and is now moving into the Pre-K classroom. I'm really excited to see all of her social, emotional, and academic development over the next year!"

"We've had a great experience overall with Little Builders over 1.5 years. I think one of their strongest assets is their current director, Cara. She really cares about each child and does her best to make sure that their needs are met. She has been very understanding and flexible with our family. The center has a good daily structure and they've done a lot of activities / field trips that my kids have loved."

"We have two children at the school and are very happy with the care they receive. Teachers are warm and connect with the kids and the director is very hands-on. The atmosphere is very family like because it’s a small non-chain center. Staff turnover is fairly high but probably typical of this field. Overall, it’s a safe and fun environment."
