Farmington Early Childhood Center

"For a child with disabilities, I would not recommend this place. The first year with an experienced teacher was good. The second year was a bad experience with a new teacher. They did not know to handle him or keep him busy which he needed. They didn't take my suggestions. They get overly concerned about him not napping but other issues that were clear to his elementary teacher and doctor were ignored. Their solution for the problems was to send him home earlier so he couldn't interact with other students who were also contributing. They changed his classroom and he couldn't attend extended care. They took a whole year to get a written behavioral plan even though I requested one in early fall. They waited a whole year to let it get to a point where they were going to do something. My child is thriving in Elementary school and the teacher was surprised due to what happened at the early childhood center. My mom group friends have had similar complaints. Please don't send a child who needs extra support here. They won't feel welcome especially when they are really too young to understand what they are saying."

"Recently remodeled. Beautiful classrooms Experiences teachers Really great school! Like the classroom model and philosophies"

"My child started attending this school at the age of 3 years old and the first year was good I like her teachers but when she started the second year it started to become a disaster the nutritionist Elise H had several conversations with me about my daughter not eating her lunch cause she’s a very picky eater and I wrote a letter to her teacher who was also aware of her not eating lunch saying that I’m aware of the situation cause she does it at home as well and her doctor is also aware but her doctor had no concerns cause she’s at her growth weight. The nutritionist “ Elise” made it her business by over stepping her boundaries and calling my daughters doctor behind my back without telling me what she did stating to the doctor that she’s concern about my daughter weight when she knows nothing about my daughter history from birth and I felt violated when the doctor brought what the nutritionist did to my attention cause we have had conversations already about the situation. What I have learned from this situation is that teachers can’t always be trusted and will violate your child privacy and your privacy as a parent this could be a HIPPA violation, so if you do register your child to attend this school be very aware of the nutritionist Elise H. she’s not to be trusted and I’m very happy this is my child last year here at this school thank God!!! I pray her next school is trustworthy."

"This is the second year my son has attended Alameda and he loves it. I am really happy that they are affiliated with Farmington Public Schools so you don't have to worry about dodgy standards here. I also like that they go outside often to play. I found it to be very reasonably priced and quality for what you get."

"I wish I could leave ZERO stars! NEVER PRE-PAY THIS PLACE! They will sign you up and then a week before school starts they will cancel the class and take 6 Weeks to refund your money. Good luck trying to find another school a week before school starts and I hope you didn't need the money you pre-paid alameda to get your child into another school. And when you call to find out a status on the refund, the person answering says " I don't know anything, I just answer the phones here""
