University Child Development Center 16701 Northcross Drive, Huntersville, NC 28078

"This horrible place is a horrible all the reviews you see have been done by the staff. The director went around telling the staff to write a review. The director Ann Tinsley is the wrost, she is a snake in the grass & a nasty person. The assistant, & 3rd in charge are scared of Tinsley and their behavior is just like hers. The lunches are nasty, cold, & undercooked at times. The Jessica Santos lady is an employee there & yes her 2 yr old daughter goes there however a few months back she had an issue with the 1yr old teacher hitting her child. Which this ain’t the first time that teacher has been accused of hitting a child. If you want to know more go to the state registry for childcare & type their name in and then the truth will come out."

"All I’m going to say is, don’t take your child to this center. Etta refused to let me bring my daughter her own lunch after she seen she hasn’t been eating the stuff they make them (she’s there 8 hours a day). My daughter is extremely picky and she said if she had an allergy it would be different... so I guess if she starves herself for 8 hours it’s totally fine. She then went on to say if I did end up bringing something it would have to follow USDA guidelines and would be sitting out all day, hmmm how sanitary is that?! 10/10 would NOT recommend. My daughter hasn’t even been there 2 weeks. Found her another school today that will let her bring her own stuff no problem. I normally don’t do this type of stuff, but when it comes to my child... don’t play with me."

"I absolutely love this center. My son has only been going here for 4 weeks but he has learned so much since then. He is improving and it is because of his teacher Jackie and Sabrina. Also Miss Janet is the coordinator or director, not sure but she is a nice woman, so down to earth. They put your kid first here and they are very reasonably priced ❤"

"My daughter attends the pre-k program here at this school. I love the fact that there is someone to greet you every morning and saying "have a nice day" when you leave. Also love the way this school doesn't smell like a daycare. You know, smells like dirty diapers and dirty dish water. They take care of this place. My daughter's teachers are very kind and definitely have done allot for my daughter. I really appreciate their patience, because it's needed with my daughter. I'm so glad I decided to go with this school, despite the long drive everyday. Thank you!"

"For months I judged the school on the corner of exit 25 that is all white, looks really old, and just not very exciting from the outside. Well, I decided to at least walk in the door. I walked in the door and it is painted purple -how fun!!! The assistant principal walked me straight to the potential classroom and left me with the teacher. Most daycares the director tours you and you barely get to talk to the actual teacher that will have your child. I was impressed from that moment on. Next the teacher starts to go in to detail about her 20 years at the school, how 60% or more of the staff has been at the school that long or longer. She shows me the amazing writing assignments and there is artwork all over the wall. On the child's level and the child can place it on the wall themselves. The school may be old but it has tons of toys. It is very clean too and everyone is so friendly. I could go on and on. Very impressed! Totally Recommended!"
