Reviews of Bright Beginnings Preschool
"Ms.Kalina is the best teacher. Wish she could move up as my baby grows but I know she’ll always be around. She truly sees what my child needs, wants, likes in all. Always putting her best foot forward even on her worse days (not that there are very many). She’s a beautiful & patient person! The staff are great and show very valuable team work/communication when it comes to the kids (all ages). I think the concerns brought to the faculty from parents have been addressed & they are doing their very best at this time. Always wanting the families to partake in festivities & extracurricular functions. Keeping parents in sync with learning/disciplinary action taking, progress, etc. For a first time mother I recommend Mill Creek (Bright Beginnings). - Thanks All!"
"Our oldest went to Bright Beginnings Mill Creek from infancy through pre-k, and we had a great experience - caring staff, excellent mitigation of COVID (and the many other bugs kids get), and a happy child who loves to read and learn as a result of his time there. Our youngest is still there and we continue to feel confident and safe with our choice. Staffing changes are common in daycare, and while that’s not ideal, there are a good number of teachers who have been there as long or longer than our family. As a teacher, I really appreciate their use of pre-kindergarten reading assessments to help us better understand our child as a reader. They provide consistent professional development for staff as well."
"Disappointing to say the least Sorry to say, but parents need to be honest with each other. Our experience was this- a lack of communication in nearly every regard, from minimal to no updates on our child's day, to weeks going by without a response to emails sent to administrators. A far cry from students playing in "organic gardens" and engaged in "child initiated learning" as advertised, we saw primarily worn out plastic toys and considerable amounts of screen time. Screen time for toddlers in a preschool? Yeah, we were surprised, too. Keep in mind that when choosing a school you're paying for a service, on top of providing your child with an environment where they can thrive. And because you can rely on their care, you can rest easy while you tackle the other parts if your work/home/personal life. Countless times we were messaged in the morning that school was short staffed that day and would need to turn away students. Often at pick up, our child was with an individual whom we had never met and who sometimes we never saw again. Staff seemingly came and went without any notice to families. Other times we witnessesd teachers aggressively yelling at children to stop behavior that was entirely developmentally appropriate (digging in an uncovered, unsupervised sandbox). Yikes! When these concerns were addressed per the school's "Happy Family Guarantee" we were assured that change would ensue, yet here we are. To us, these things meant that our family couldn't rely on the care we paid for, and when we were there, we always felt worried that our kid/their peers weren't getting what they deserved. A quick internet search revealed that owners of the school have also worked for an advisory group who council early childhood educators on how to maximize profit. Big sigh. And heads up, the school frequently requests that families nominate them for "Best Preschool" awards in exchange for $100 gift cards, so keep that in mind when reviewing their accolades. As parents who care not only about our own family, but the safety and well-being of every child, we can not, in good conscience, recommend this school."
"Our son was here for almost three months (Aug 2022) before we relocated out of state. It makes me sad to write this review because my experience since leaving this daycare has only validated my concern. My complaint is very simple; every single day, I would send my child to the Mill Creek location with pants on. Every single day, he would be returned to me, not wearing pants. His legs were very cold to the touch at pick up and so I asked if they could please put his pants back on after diaper changes. They NEVER did. It's concerning because if you're not staffed well enough in the infant classroom to put a babies pants back on after a diaper change, well then something is very wrong. I do think the facilities are nice and a few teachers were great. But overall, I would not recommend this facility until they resolve their communication and/or staffing situation."
"My 2.5-year-old son has been at Bright Beginnings (Mill Creek) since he was 3 months old, and we couldn't be happier with his care. Bottom line: staff members love my son, which is all I could ever ask. I love the staff. He is safe, and we appreciate the preschool curriculum. My only constructive feedback is regarding parent communication. We would appreciate more notice, especially about staff changes. No place is perfect, not even my own home, so I'm willing to look over this because of the quality of care provided. There is some staff turnover, but I understand it's less than the industry standard. We love Bright Beginnings!!"
