We visited several daycares before we settle on this one, Teachers are nice and rooms area nice size. Lots of daycares have small rooms but this one has more space and kids don't stay in one room all day, I go and pick up the kids at different times so they never know when Ill be there and the place is always clean and teachers are nice and children well taken care of. We have recommended this place to other family members.

After giving this place a try we were eager for a great, long term experience Unfortunately it ended abruptly.I brought a few concerns to the administration such as a teacher (ms Vicki) grabbing children and pushing them One student (4) began to bleed this last Friday after she grabbed her shoulder for jumping off the playground equipment her nail scratched herRugs are worn / stained and kids are tripping on the rolled edges They are not willing to replace these after bringing up the amount of students this is causing injury to Paint is chipped in every room (I offered to dedicate time to touch this up to enhance the facilities presentation A light is burnt out in classroom 13's bathroom causing children to have a difficult time navigating in the dark (it has been out for 2 weeks time & they are not making it a priority to change it) therefore I offered to bring in a tall lamp & was shot down Ms Alex a 18 year old teacher in pre-k is always yelling and angry with the studentsForced the whole class to sit out of water play last ThursdayI feel outdoor water exploration could enhance emotional regulation and asked she find a better suited "punishment" Lots and lots of yellingIt's like jail there honestly I felt bad for the kids Outside the slides have no canopy cover and are too hot to play on- there is no turf, only dirt surrounding the areaThe students are reprimanded for exploring the dirt and it is off limits but honestly what's left to do?Phones are off limits but teachers use laptops to textA teacher was asking 3 girls in her class if they thought her boyfriend was cute and mentioning she had a crush on him etc -not appropriate in my opinion for 4 year oldsSchool Age'd children are kept together in the summer -1st-6th grade I feel this is a huge age gap and could be inappropriate as the class size is large (18) Vicki was praying parents would get there to pickup their kids Friday as she said she was "miserable and over these kids"Constant yellingIt's just not a great place, unfortunately There are teachers who are amazing and stand out but that's standard that shouldn't be surprising At a school, you want the best people who will love your kids and help them navigate childhood But the bad ones ruin it for them and the administration took my concerns and fired me without discussion Didn't ask for more info on the abuse etc. this is scary

Administration is less than personable. These people don’t even smile! The only good thing about the place was my sons teacher. Do not recommend.

Little Village Academy has helped my son grow so much. They have extra educational activities that you do not find in other schools. If you are looking for a great place to take your child for preschool, pre-k, or kindergarten - they are hands down the best.

Worst daycare I've ever worked for. I was never paid for the days I did work. They have a high turnover rate for a reason.
