Little Red Caboose Child Care

"As first-time parents in 2018, the search for an affordable yet top-notch daycare was daunting. After an exhaustive hunt, we discovered Little Red Caboose (LRC), primarily due to the glowing recommendation from a trusted colleague who had entrusted all four of their children to this establishment. Gratefully, this turned out to be a decision that shaped our children's early years in the most positive and impactful way possible. One of the initial factors that drew us to LRC was the combination of affordability and a high level of consistent quality. Compared to other options in the area, the cost was notably the most reasonable, which was a huge relief for us. What set LRC apart, however, was its dedicated and experienced staff. Most teachers had tenure exceeding several years, with some educators boasting over two decades within LRC. This meant our children weren't encountering new faces on a daily basis. Our eldest child thoroughly enjoyed his time at LRC, and as a family, we established deep, meaningful relationships with both the teachers and administrative staff over the next five years. When our second child arrived in 2021, there was no hesitation - we knew that LRC would be the perfect environment for him too. LRC's incorporation of swimming classes in the summers (at no extra cost) was huge confident booster for our oldest. Witnessing the transformation in his confidence, from his first hesitant swim to confident strokes, was nothing short of amazing. The teachers' empathy and dedication were evident in every aspect of their interaction with our children. We developed a strong rapport with each teacher during our time there. Leaving San Antonio became a more difficult decision than anticipated because we didn't want to disrupt our youngest child's experience at LRC. Now, with our older son in kindergarten, we are reaping the rewards of his time spent at LRC. His kindergarten teacher has noted his exceptional progress and stated that he has met several academic milestones, inquiring about his Pre-K education due to the evident preparation he brought into his kindergarten class. Highly Recommend!"

"We have had 100% positive experiences with Little Red Caboose over the last 8 months. The teachers and directors are so thoughtful in the way they treat the kids. My kid has medical issues they have to manage, and I have been so impressed with how well they have handled it. Every day when I pick up my kid, most of the kids in the class give goodbye hugs. My child loves her teachers and friends, comes home with fun art projects every day, and gets to take swimming and soccer lessons at school. We are so fortunate to have found such a great place for our child to spend her days."

"They've taken excellent care of my son in the afterschool program and my daughter during drop-ins. My 3 year has adored coming to LRC."

"They act like they have no time for children which I don't understand since they took on this position. Right now since they're lacking teachers they're looking for any reason to throw kids out to help the ratio. This coming out of one of their teachers mouths which shocked me. Teachers are very unprofessional. The director is difficult to talk to and is not willing to listen to any concerns. He is quick to disregard. I do not recommend this daycare if you love your child."

"Absolutely amazing LRC has provided our son with loving care since he was an infant. They have always been attentive, compassionate and have provided outstanding care for my child over the past decade. What I truley love about this daycare is the staff, and the fact that in the years we have been there they don’t have high turnaround. They have watched my child grow and assisted in his care thus far and we totally trust our child care to them 100%"
