  If I could give zero stars, I would. My son has documented disabilities that were disclosed and discussed at enrollment. I was assured that his needs would be accommodated and that the staff would work with us to support him. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. Throughout his enrollment, I became increasingly concerned about how my 4-year-old was being treated and supervised. His teacher openly admitted to yelling at students to “control” them. My son is sensory-sensitive, yet the classroom music was played so loudly that you could hear it immediately upon walking in. When I expressed concern, the response was essentially, “I need it loud so I can’t hear them,” with the solution being for my son to wear headphones. There were also multiple occasions when my son came home injured, and I was told they “didn’t know what happened,” despite the facility having cameras. I witnessed an older school-age child PUSH my 4-year-old on the playground while no teacher was present. I had to bring it to their attention, and the response was simply to look at me. My son was repeatedly poked, pushed, and hit by other children, yet when he eventually defended himself, he was the one written up and sent home. It felt as though he had been labeled as “the problem” rather than the adults looking at what was happening around him and trying to understand why he was struggling. The situation continued to deteriorate. The director, Amanda, was dismissive and unwilling to genuinely listen when I raised concerns. It seemed that the moment I disagreed with how things were being handled, the focus shifted toward pushing us out rather than finding a solution. Just days before his enrollment was terminated, we had a conversation on Thursday about creating a plan to better support my son. I had already arranged for his therapist to come observe the classroom environment so we could better understand what was happening and identify appropriate strategies. By Tuesday, his enrollment had been terminated. When your 4-year-old is crying, terrified to go to school, and telling you that he is scared of his teacher, there is a problem. My son deserves to be understood, supported, and protected—not labeled because his disabilities and behaviors require additional patience, understanding, and accommodations. I have filed a complaint with the DHS licensing board. Their response was that the facility needs additional training regarding children with heightened behaviors. I sincerely hope that training happens, because no parent should have to feel that their child is being pushed out simply because the staff does not know how to support him. This experience has been heartbreaking as a mother. I trusted this facility with my child, and I expected them to care for him, keep him safe, and work with us—not make him feel like he was the problem.

  CKLC has been amazing for my child and for myself also. The teachers are amazing. My kiddo has learned so much since attending CKLC. The management is also amazing and is always available when I have questions. They take time out of their busy days to always love on my little one. We could not be any happier with this center. We love everyone there.

  Started off great when they had good staff! But the place has gone downhill. The kids are not watched. Teachers are on their phones outside. The director has pushed the good teachers out! And many parents have either pulled their kids, or can’t wait for school to start so their kids do not have to return!

  Communication is poor. I can’t even simply get documents or follow up after asking for several days.. despite how things ended for us with the center is one thing but I simply asked for a few things and they can’t even take the time to provide.

  Will no longer trust this facility. Within the last year it’s gone down hill. When you walk in it always smells awful. The turn over rate is really bad. The “teachers” working there are questionable. They are understaffed at all times. They have a few complaints that have been documented with DHS. They claim to be faith based but no one there really is. Everything good about this place is gone. They seem nice until you have a different point of view. Last minute they will tell you they aren’t staffed for the amount of kids that are there. The older kids run wild and get injured often. There is usually 1 “teacher” outside with the older kids 10+ kids at times. Many times you walk in the front door and there isn’t a person there. They have a 2 week cancellation and will charge you regardless if your child is there. They do not credit you even if you voluntarily keep your child home because they aren’t fully staffed. Have witnessed children in the halls alone. The preK program is a joke! Honestly there’s more but red flags all around for this place.
