Reviews of Little Lambs Day Care Center
"I worked at Little Lambs for three years and enjoyed my time spent here. This is a wonderful place to work and is a fun filled childcare center for the kids to be at. The staff is kind and welcoming for all children. The environment is calm and inviting. The kids are given ample learning opportunities that are offered throughout the day. All the teachers create lesson plans and provide the students with experiences that will last them a lifetime. The daycare is clean and well taken care of as well. I highly recommend this childcare facility to both families looking for a new daycare and to people looking for a new job."
"We have been with Little Lambs for over a year and have enjoyed their staff and programs. Every teacher demonstrates an ability to reach out to every child. Entire staff is engaged with parents and kids. Mary has built a great team and place where parents can expect quality child care."
"Great staff, my daughter is always happy to see her friends and is well cared for while I am at work. She has been at Little Lambs since she was an infant, and Mary has been accommodating to schedule changes over the years. The teachers are always doing fun activities and crafts with the kids. This is an affordable well staffed daycare that if we weren't moving we'd have used indefinitely!"
"(Excuse the lengthy post) I sent my daughter here from age 2 until she finished with 4K. Most of the teachers were great specifically Ms. Leslie who ran the 4K program. She was very organized and kept good communication. How ever, there were a few instances that occurred that made me question continuing my daughters care here probably longer than I should have. The worst instance was a day a picked my daughter up from little lambs and later that evening before her bed time I had gotten her into the tub and noticed she had a giant scrape from in between her shoulder blades past the middle of her back that looked like road rash. The next morning when I dropped her off I confronted her teacher about it and she explained to me “no one was aware of any fall” and my then 2 almost 3 year old never came and told her or any other teacher that she had fallen or injured herself outside. So basically no one knew/saw anything. This was not the first incident where my daughter came home from there and had some sort of cut or scrape or bruise. I know that kids play rough sometimes especially if they’re out doors or can fall occasionally but each time it was brought up no one ever “saw anything”. I also found it odd that a couple times when I had asked this teacher at the time, what happened or could have happened that Mary would also call me leaving a very defensive voicemail as if I shouldn’t have been bringing up concerns to the teacher or teachers themselves. I understand she’s the director but the way she would go about handling certain situations it almost seemed as if it was rehearsed or that things happen so often that they couldn’t explain that they were covering it up to not make it seem so bad. Another thing I didn’t care for was the amount of personal questions one of the teachers in my daughters room would ask me. One morning I dropped my daughter off there and was hardly wearing any makeup and she asked me if I was sick and that I looked pale and thin. I’m petite and only about 5’4 so to have your child’s teacher comment on how crappy you look that day insinuating you’re “sick” would make anyone feel uncomfortable. It might have been small issues to some here and there but over all just things to think about if you plan on looking into this daycare. We’re now expecting our second child and we won’t be choosing this daycare again. They always say to go with your gut on things and if you feel your child isn’t getting the best care your feelings are probably right and you should look elsewhere. Apologies for the long post!"
"(sorry for the length, but I wanted to provide full context) My daughter (about 3 mo) was only here for 2 weeks before we had a problem. Mary just doesn't seem to know how to communicate effectively with parents. She asked me to supply larger bottles, which I was happy to do if we needed to. The next morning I told the person in the baby room that I hadn't pumped extra the previous day since I didn't know they were requesting more, but said I would add another pumping session to provide more if I needed to in the future. I did question why we needed more though, since most days they weren't even giving my daughter all 3 bottles I provided (which to me signaled she was satisfied with only the 2). She then gave my husband a sheet that afternoon about how much formula a baby needs, even though my baby is on breast milk. She didn't seem to be at all knowledgeable about breastfeeding or breast milk and how it differed from formula and had no interest in receiving information about it from me. (Breastfed babies generally do smaller feedings but eat more frequently compared to formula babies and breastfed babies only take about 1-1.25 oz of milk per hour from 1 month on.) She also requested that I have my daughter's pediatrician confirm her weight was ok, which again I was happy to comply with if it would help diffuse the situation. But even though I said I would get more milk if I needed to and said I had scheduled a weight check with her pediatrician to show she was perfectly healthy, she just kept pushing harder and harder which made me uncomfortable. To me, the issue should have been dropped once I said I would get more milk if needed and that I had an appointment with her pediatrician. I just asked a few questions trying to understand the situation and Mary escalated the situation beyond repair. It just wasn't making sense to me that they were saying my daughter was still hungry but yet they were sending home a full bottle with my husband most days and constantly telling us what a sweet and happy baby she was. So, best case Mary was simply ignorant of the differences in breast milk and formula and wanted larger bottles because that is what she is used to seeing with formula and just has no interest in learning the difference. Worst case, she genuinely thought my daughter was still hungry but chose not to even give her all of the milk I had provided. The way things were handled was completely unprofessional and out of line in my opinion. I think the real issue here was communication. This situation just escalated far too quickly. It all could have been avoided if things were handled better, because I really don't think the situation needed to escalate the way it did. I hate that this didn't work out for us, but when you trust someone to care for your child, there really needs to be open, two-way communication for it to work. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be possible here. *Note, I previously gave a 2 star rating on their Facebook page along with this exact review. However, they have since disabled the reviews on their page so that all previous reviews are hidden. That seems sketchy to me that they would hide all reviews so that other parents and potential clients will not see my experience. I would like any parents considering their facility to be able to see my experience and make their own decision. Also, as additional info, we did take my child to her pediatrician for a weight check when requested by Little Lambs. Her doctor confirmed she was perfectly healthy and tracking right along her growth curve and that her current milk intake was sufficient. When we brought her for her 4-month well baby check yesterday, we were told the same. Her doctor is 100% happy with her growth and had zero concerns. Just for reference to show that we did have her pediatrician verify multiple times that she is growing exactly as she is supposed to and there was no reason for Little Lambs to question the milk I was providing and there was definitely no reason to escalate the situation the way that they did."
