Cadence Academy Preschool

This location has wonderful staff. They definitely communicate well with me about my toddler and all his needs. It has been wonderful having my son at a place where staff cares so much about the care and needs of each child. Last week was also MVP week and they did a lovely job especially spreading the word of stopping child abuse with wrist bands and pins.

Great staff. Ms Neisha and all the infant classroom teachers took such good care of our little one. Would 100% recommend.

My son started at Cadence in 2017. They were awesome with him and worked with his above average needs later on and it was great. Gail was the director when he started and it was wonderful. Years later my daughter is smart as a whip but needs special attention. Lately all I hear is excuses about ratios rather than how they schedule appropriately. All they care about these days seems to be how they can save money and send home 'difficult' kids with a mind of their own. I used to love this place. These days I'm looking for something better

Making the decision to enroll out son at Cadence, has been the best decision we could’ve made for him. Mrs. Laura and Mrs. Angel are so attentive to details, and truly make you feel like your child is their top priority! After transitioning from staying with grandma, then to an in-home daycare, we were not sure how our son would adapt to the larger classroom sizes but it has been so wonderful for him! His teachers make him feel so welcome and know just how to cheer him up every morning at drop off. By the time I pick him up everyday he has the biggest smile on his face and his teachers are always so eager to tell me about how great his day was. Thank you Cadence for all that you do, from the teachers in the classroom to the behind the scene staff that make it run smoothly. We are so happy and fortunate to have found a school as great as this!

Had to remove my child from this school out of fear for his safety. Laura (the director) originally called and tried to finesse us into moving our child to part time under threat that they'd instead remove our child from the daycare because he used a sippy cup due to a delay he was receiving therapy for. It later came out that they were just understaffed due to a teacher quitting. When we didn't accept this attempt to manipulate us, and asked for a meeting to discuss the reasoning for their sudden interest in kicking us out (after a full year of using this daycare and neither us nor our child breaking any rules). The director for whatever reason decided to have her employees present in our private meeting instead of acting with any level of professionalism. The two teachers from the explorer room then proceeded to yell in my face and threaten me with physical violence from their husband directly in front of the director (Laura). All because I had the gall to dispute that they should in fact make reasonable accommodations for my slightly delayed child. That accommodation being as simple as letting my 1.5 year old have a sippy cup. And letting my child draw quietly during naps while he adjusted to their new schedule (he was changing rooms). Keep in mind, my child is extraordinarily sweet. Doesn't throw fits, or bite, or stomp or anything behaviorally that would cause issues. This much they were willing to admit. Once the teachers finally stomped out of the room, I asked that accommodations be made for my child's saftey. As these child care workers should not be allowed around my kid especially after their behavior, but almost certainly not allowed around children at all if they would so easily lose their temper and resort to threats of physical violence. The director admitted that their behavior was unacceptable. But decided to do nothing to reprimand these employees. Nor did she make them apologize or reassure us that our child was safe. In fact, these workers decided to then give us silent treatment in the last few days my child attended this school. Even when we asked to have a meeting to discuss further as a group. All in all, this school is overly expensive. Shady with their teacher to room ratios. Will make no accommodations for your child even if they only require the smallest of accommodation (a sippy cup, and a non-forced nap). And most of all the director is incompetent and the employees unprofessional and dangerous to your child. Believe me when I tell you how aware I am that this review seems insane. Surely this situation has some extenuating circumstance that I as a direct party in the conflict am biased in? But I promise you, parent to parent, this conflict resolved exactly this insanely. My child is truly the sweetest child. We have 3, and behaviorally we have been very fortunate with him. He has a slight speech delay and is also shy to new foods. For this we have him in speech and occupational therapy. But our child did nothing to deserve this treatment. He should be allowed his sippy cup instead of being denied nourishment just because they're concerned it would rub off on other children. He shouldn't have been excommunicated for not immediately being able to switch nap schedule. And he certainly shouldn't have been put in harm's way because I disagreed with the teachers in the room. Ask yourself whether there is a disagreement with the daycare that you WOULD be willing to have the teachers threaten you and your children's safety? Or yell and cuss in your face? Then do yourself a favor and find a different childcare facility. We changed our child to another daycare around 4 months ago now, and his growth has been amazing with his new teachers. They seem to actually care for my child and are willing to make small accommodation for his slight delay. They are also much cheaper, and not even once have I had to worry for my child's health. Please don't make the same mistake I did. I looked at local prices and made the assumption that more expensive meant more value. But boy was I mistaken.
