Glad Tidings Preschool Center 3400 Texas Street, Lake Charles, LA 70607

"We had a terrible experience with this child care facility. An ongoing issue and my daughter only attended one month before my husband and I had no other choice but to remove her from this facility. On a number of occasion I witness a child in her class show aggression and hit her as well as swat and hit at the teacher. I asked for that child to be moved because it was obvious he was the aggressor. The director told me to give her a couple of days and they would make the move. The move was eventually made and 2 days later they were back together in a class due to their lack of staff. I witness my child be chased with a jacket and hit again..when I called and asked if she had documentation provided to her staff that my child and the other were to be separated she told me no. So she failed at doing her job and insuring the safety of my child…DO NOT RECOMMEND."

"Ms. Bernie is a lovely teacher. My daughter absolutely adores her. Even on weekends she tells me “mom let’s go to school “. They have cameras so, you can check on your little ones. Under Ms. Bernie’s care, I’m not even worried to check on my baby. I have seen her talk to my baby and other kids so lovingly."

"We love Glad Tidings Daycare and so do our kids! The staff are wonderful and professional. The curriculum is great and has helped our daughter excel. We never have any worries leaving our kids here. Highly recommend!"

"This preschool is one of the best I’ve ever been associated with. Thanks Mrs. Dana and your team for such excellent work, love, and care for all those you take care of. In my opinion you’re the best. Be Blessed and Highly Favored."

"Pretty shady place.. Favoritism was felt, and it is a shame when my rights as the father are thrown out the window because come to find out the mother has known the director all her life. The teachers were great and I appreciate that so much, but the lady in charge seemed to create rules as she went. Want to pickup your child because it is your visitation? They gotta call mom to confirm.. Oh, I am able to watch a live camera on my phone as my daughter plays on the playground?!? “Let me just confirm with mom that she allows you access to the cameras”. Such a terrible feeling, especially when I was making all the payments. Wait, you need an invoice for your tax return? “I cannot give that to you because the mother is head of household.” Wow."
