Rising Star Preschool & Childcare

Rising star (eastern and pebble/215) was my LAST hope. I went to every pre-school/daycare in the neighborhood and I was turned down because of over occupancy for her age group. She was 18 months at the time. (Now in reality i have a 6yo in school, a 3yo, 18 mons and i was 4.5 mons pregnant. So i actually needed to enroll 2 children. )
I called and asked the mom questions and the young lady over the phone was helpful and informative. I asked if I could come in and get the paper work and put down the registration fee, she said you don't want a tour 1st? I asked if we could just do it when I come in, in 2 mins? She said she was getting ready to close and it wouldn't be possible same day, I said thats fine.
Once I showed up, the smell was comforting and very reminiscence. I instantly knew that I'd be ok leaving my children here. The bright welcoming colors.the photos on the walls, kids screaming laughing and playing all around. It was PERFECT. The environment that I desired my children to be in. To be honest I never did the tour ahaha...
My children loved it!!! Before the Covid-19 pandemic, they were bringing home crafts every night, my now 4yo had improved his verbal articulation within a week of going. He came home knowing how to write his name, knowing the months and days of the week. My daughter was so loved. Not a day went by that the staff didn't have a story to tell me about how helpful, funny, and genuine my children were to them. The staff was helpful, caring, and had a good sense of humor. Hard to find in a stick kind of world.
NOW*** when it comes to all daycare/preschools I wish the schedules were flexible and the payments were adjustable to my needs but a little price to pay for great care..
I can't wait for the world to go back to normal so my daughter can go back and now that I'll have 2 in school, hopefully my new baby can attend!

I cannot say enough about how amazing this daycare is. I absolutely love the teachers and my son loves them too. They are constantly having fun and exciting activities for the children and I love that I get a lot of hand painted pictures and things that my son made while at daycare. The school is incredibly clean, they rotate toys and there is lots of room for them to play. Plus, the price is one of the best I've seen, which to be honest, scared me slightly because I thought it might make them lack in care but I was wrong. If you are looking for a daycare, you won't be disappointed.

As a new mother, my first concern was finding somewhere I would feel comfortable leaving my three month old daughter, as I needed to return to work. From the moment that I walked into Rising Star, I knew it was the place for her. I immediately enrolled her and she began going full-time the following week!

Tina, owner/director, has always answered all of my many questions and has always been accommodating when I call to check up on her and let me know how she was doing, and what she was doing – that extra bit of information gives it a special personal touch!! I have seen my daughter laugh and jiggle enthusiastically when we arrive at Rising Star in the morning and because of that I know that she is happy there.

To describe the environment of Rising Star, I would use the words: family-oriented, friendly, structured, dedicated, and safe. Every interaction with staff members, Eryka and Melody, has been positive and it is clear that they are outstanding teachers. They truly enjoy working with each and every child in the Infant room and they always manage to make us feel that my daughter is special to them. They take time to write detailed reports on her each day and they always greet me with a smile regardless of how busy they are. It's that type of personal attention that makes me feel comfortable leaving her in their hands. Thank you all for taking such good care of my little girl!!

My family and I are so happy to have found this preschool. We searched around and looked at different schools, this by far the cleanest and nicest we had been to. I liked the unique and personal touches each room has. I especially love that there is a large room for kids to have activity in. I was blown away by the kid size treadmill personally I just think that's awesome.
