The children’s Courtyard in grapevine is one of if not the best childcare in the metroplex. The facility is always clean and the staff is always warm and welcoming!

Prior to coming to this school, we had our daughter enrolled elsewhere. Upon enrollment, we noticed immediate positive changes with our daughter. This is the most loving, compassionate and engaging environment. Everyone at the center is always friendly and receptive. Our daughter has learned a lot, the structure and learning activities even surprises us when she comes home with something new! There are always keepsakes coming home, we get to watch her on video, she loves the food and the teachers. You literally could never get better care elsewhere. We know our child is safe in your hands, thank you for all you do!

We have used this daycare from June 2021 to now and it has been wonderful! The teachers are really receptive to feedback and they are kind to the children, but definitely help them develop manners and social interactions. They communicate very well and it feels like a partnership. My daughter loves going to school! I also like that the school and teachers make an effort to learn parents names which helps me feel secure they know who is picking each kiddo up

This daycare is the best. My daughter asks for her teachers on the weekends. They treat my daughter like she is family. Thank you Children’s Courtyard of Grapevine.

I only had positive interactions! If something came up, it was dealt with care and respectfulness.

If you care about how you and your child will be treated, I cannot recommend this daycare to you. We left this school after repeated instances of what I will call “targeting”, psychological abuse, and retaliation. The first week my son attended, I decided to watch recess from a nearby parking lot to check on him. What I saw was my son was left on the “bumper” (an area for time out) for 25 minutes straight and not allowed to play. He looked sad and no teacher or friend came over to play with him or speak to him at all, during the 25 minutes. I later asked him why he wasn’t playing and he told me “the teacher put me on the bumper”. The school never gave any explanation on why he was singled out like that or what warranted 25 minutes of isolation. That should’ve been a sign to take him out of the school, but as a busy parent I decided to just see how things proceeded and my son seemed to otherwise like his friends at Children’s Courtyard.Things were good for five months, my son was meeting lots of friends—he was getting invited to birthday parties and there was even a time when another student left a note in his backpack inviting him to a play date. I thought great, he’s making friends! His teacher Ms Camryn had a big smile every time he came to class. Things seemed good.But around summertime when he moved to a different class, their enrollment increased, the school became more crowded and chaotic, It seemed like there was no curriculum or structure so I offered feedback on one of their online feedback surveys, inquiring about more educational activities. That’s when I saw a pattern of retaliation developed.Any time I gave feedback or completed one of the online surveys, the teachers began writing up my son. I would give feedback and literally within days the teacher wrote him up for random behavioral issues “he interrupted the teacher during story time”, not following directions, not sleeping during nap time, etc. they began to encourage me to medicate my son. Yes, the Director Jennifer literally told me I should medicate my son. At the time, he was three! After I declined to medicate due to his age and our pediatricians advice not to, more write ups and retaliation continued-sometimes daily. My son began to really develop a complex about going to school and often asked “mommy am I a bad kid?”, after being constantly scolded at school. When I asked about why all the sudden issues, they said there were several “bad apples” in the class and that he wasn’t the only one getting written up and this was their approach to dealing with it and keeping parents informed. After so many write ups I realized this was becoming psychologically damaging for me and my child. I gave notice and enrolled him elsewhere. On his last day of school, after I escalated feedback to the corporate office, his teacher wrote up my son FIVE separate times as if to say “don’t ever come back” (which I wouldn’t even if CCY was the last standing daycare on the planet). He now attends public school and his teacher there says he is great to have in class, that he’s a “great role model” for other students, has met all educational milestones and he has never received one write up there! So glad we switched, the right teachers and leadership makes a HUGE difference in your child’s experience, learning and well-being!

The care my child receives at this daycare beyond exceeds my expectations. We were at another daycare before this one and once we transferred our child, they soared! Our kid is learning and growing so fast. The teaches and management is exceptional!!

Very disappointing experience...This facility is truly just a daycare and the demeanor of some of the caretakers is certainly not one of kindness towards kids. For the ridiculous cost, your child will be held back. They claim to have a curriculum but the truth is that nothing is taught and from what I witnessed on the webcam is that kiddos are treated like they need to act robotic so that the caretaker can sit on a chair and relax; and by the way, my child's class NEVER went outside so they did not get to have the physical exertion they very much need as toddlers.I also witnessed other kids being yelled at (for being kids) and treated aggressively versus being guided with care. I was utterly disappointed and had to pull my child out of this place quickly. I am so glad I did, she actually loves the pre-school she has been attending and her teachers treat ALL kids with lots of love, kindness, and respect! Did I mention the cost is significantly less, than that of The Children's Courtyard?I am writing this (overdue) review to encourage parents to unite in getting these types of places either shut down or have them change their tactics instead of only focusing on how much $$$$ they can get out of hardworking parents.There are far better places to choose from so BEWARE of TCCG!

When I came here, there were only a few rooms, main room, games, video games, snack room, and a jc room for 4th 5th and 6th grade then opens computer and Lego room, there are 2 teachers and 1 manager, they are majorly over worked for the kids they have top care for, the kids are disrespectful to the teachers (6th grades) and 5th graders it's sad the fact that they have to go threw that. Some odd threw things threw kids do were cuss make sex jokes, and threw fact that KINDERGARTNERS GO HERE is horrible so I'd you want to send you're kids here, when they come home sad or emo, it's threw kids fault plus threw teachers can shop little top nothing top stop this. If they could have authority and more staff it would be a lot better. Also nobody can use that home work room on fact like I said, about oof the rooms started out unavailable.

My grandson was abused by one of the teachers and caught on video. I just happen to be home that particular day and my daughter called me to make sure wasn't over reacting so she called from work because she witnessed the first occurrence. So I signed on to the website and I witnessed the teacher grabbing my grandson by the arm from time out and hitting him in his head repeatedly I immediately dropped what I was doing and got in my car to go pick him up. While I was in route one of my guest from out of town witnessed it again. I when reported it was taken very lightly and the teacher was allowed to come back to work. My daughter has been lied to over and over. Nothing has been done to this teacher and she is still working with the children that still attends! This is scary. Please! Please! DO NOT ENROLL YOUR CHILD HERE. THERE IS SO MUCH MORE THAT IS TO THIS STORY!

I have two daughters enrolled at Children's Courtyard and have come to value the atmosphere, teachers, and staff at CCY. Is it expensive? (YES!) Is it worth it? (TRIPLE YES!) I can't place a value on knowing that when I drop my children off they are being loved, doted on, stimulated and cared for as if I were at home with them (and maybe even more so!) If you ever have a question about whether to enroll here just come watch the interactions at drop off. My 5 year old gives her teacher a hug as she darts in the door, I stay and chat for 15 minutes with the teachers as they talk about all the funny things my daughter did that day. EVERYONE of the teachers knows both girls and greets them with a friendly smile every day. I'm shocked at the review that denounces the "New Yorker" in the Pre-K department. My daughter is in her class and has FLOURISHED!!! Does she have rules? Absolutely! Kids at this age need structure and meet the expectations we set for them. Her Pre-K kids that are graduating this year can read, write and sing all 50 states and they have all LOVED the experience of learning. My daughter cries when it is Friday because it isn't a "learning day". She comes home each day chattering away about all the fun things they learned, art projects they did etc... I will be SAD to have her leave CCY and her teachers and "family" that have developed over the last 4 years. My daughter tells me frequently that she loves Mommy, Daddy and her teacher at CCY!
