  We’ve been part of this daycare family since March, and both of our children have attended here, with our oldest recently starting kindergarten. After reading some of the reviews, I wanted to share our experience. Like any organization, no place is perfect, and transitions in leadership and changes within a center take time. We believe the new leadership deserves grace and an opportunity to continue building and improving. We’ve been very supportive of the changes we’ve seen and, most importantly, we can see the effort being put in every day. Kids are going to get sick, that’s simply part of having young children together. What stands out to us is seeing the work, care, and commitment being put into creating a better environment for the children and families. We’ve had a positive experience overall, and we appreciate the teachers and leadership who continue to show up, put in the work, and make improvements. Change doesn’t happen overnight, but we believe the effort we’re seeing speaks for itself. We’re grateful for the time our kids have spent here and wanted to share our perspective as a family who has experienced the transition firsthand. Take a real tour and perhaps talk to another parents enrolled before going off some of these reviews ☺️

  We removed our infant son from Chroma 2 days after an experience that left us with serious concerns about staffing, communication, and basic infant care procedures. On his very first day, his regular teacher walked out during her shift. No one notified us. We also received no updates or photos throughout the day, despite this being his first day in daycare. A substitute who, according to the director, was not trained to work with infants was placed in the infant room. The director later acknowledged that the substitute “did not belong” in that room and said she had checked on her multiple times because she was concerned about whether she was okay. At pickup, I personally witnessed another staff member showing this substitute how to burp a baby. The feeding situation was especially concerning because the explanation of what happened kept changing. The app initially documented two feedings, but we were later told one had been entered by mistake and that our son had actually only been fed once during the approximately five hours he was there. We then received multiple, conflicting explanations about his bottles. At one point, we were told a new warmed bottle had been poured into an old bottle he had already eaten from. During our meeting, the director gave us another explanation: she had instructed the substitute to give our son the remainder of a previously warmed and partially consumed bottle approximately THREE HOURS after he originally drank from it. There was also an 11 AM feeding documented in the app that we were later told never happened. If that feeding truly did not occur, based on when he had last eaten, that would mean our infant went approximately SEVEN HOURS without asking for or receiving another feeding. As his parents, that simply did not make sense to us and created even more questions about what actually happened that morning. With the feeding records and explanations continuing to change, we were left unable to confidently determine what our baby had actually been fed, when he had been fed, or how his bottles had been handled. Because we could no longer trust which bottles had been warmed, used, combined, or otherwise handled, I ultimately had to throw away both breast milk and formula that I had provided for my son. When we requested camera footage to understand what happened, we were initially told the cameras were not recording. After we withdrew our son, the regional director contacted us, offered us a month of free tuition to return, and said additional staff training would be taking place. We were also later told the director could review footage in her office, despite previously being told it wasn't recording. Ultimately, we were left without being able to review the footage and are still at a loss as to what happened. For us, the issue wasn't one mistake. It was the combination of an infant teacher leaving mid-shift without parents being notified, an untrained substitute being placed with infants, inaccurate feeding documentation, unsafe bottle-handling instructions, lack of first-day communication, and conflicting information regarding camera footage. We entrusted Chroma with our baby. After this experience, that trust was gone, and we removed him from their care.

  Really great school. Both my kids are super happy going here. Teachers are really nice and is obvious they have many years working in childcare. They do a great job of encouraging positive behaviors, and finding creative ways of discouraging misbehaviors. Michelle is about as helpful of an administrator as you'll find. My kids talk about their teachers casually at home if that tells you anything. Line leader app allows for multiple designated persons to receive photo/post updates of your kids' activities, lunch, naps, etc. throughout the day. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great place to help get their kids off to a good early start in life.

  I was not happy with my experience here. We were told they accepted walk in tours but when we did so, the “manager” kept going on about how they didn’t let her know we were coming.. I offered to come back she said no it’s fine. When we went in, the staff didn’t seem very inviting which wasn’t a deal breaker, but then I asked about cameras and I was told they were “currently down” not sure when they’ll be working again. That’s fine too. But I started to get an off-put feeling about the place in whole so I finished up my questions and on our way out, one of the staff members started YELLING at one of the kids in a mean tone, infront of the guardian as well. and the manager said nothing. Obviously I was thinking what if that were my child and that easily made the decision for me. Don’t recommend.
