General Info
The nurture and early development of your child is the primary concern at the Berri Patch. All children are treated as unique individuals. Each child will receive love and nurturing while being guided in emotional, cognitive, aesthetic, and physical activities that encourage them to develop sensitivity to our world and self-motivation that will allow them to begin to recognize their role in our community, the very beginning of the road to becoming valuable, contributing members of our society.

Amenities
Learning centers include activities and topics in specific subject areas and enrichment activities in both indoor and outdoor settings. Our Prekindergarten curriculum incorporates the Beyond Centers and Circle Time (BCCT) curriculum. BCCT presents a literacy and play based curriculum model focused on the planning of play experiences, the organization, and arrangement of play experiences, scaffolding play experiences, and assessing play experiences. CCT is "supported by research and represents an approach that uses rich, well-planned, and organized play opportunities with teacher scaffolding." These types of "early learning experiences will support each child's journey toward readiness and success later in school." (Phelps, 2004) Fieldtrips complementing the curriculum are scheduled throughout the year.

I enrolled my daughter from August-March, I was concerned at first because their doors were never locked, they didn't provide me with codes to clock my daughter in and out until January, I didn't even receive a handbook with the rules and requirements until December. I gave it a chance anyway because I was new to using a daycare. Then in March my daughter turned two and I heard so many scary things about how their two year old teacher, Ms. Jessica, has been witnessed being rough with the children from different people, including the "Director", Holiday Foley, told me about social media accusations. Once she realized I was not aware of those accusations, she got defensive and began calling me unfair, while telling me to trust her judgement. I scheduled a private appointment and she chose to attack me in the lobby as I was picking up my daughter. There is zero professionalism from their "Director" but what is even more concerning is she continues to employ a teacher that has such a bad reputation WITH CHILDREN. I hope that any parent considering Berri Patch and reads this review will reconsider the safety of their child in this establishment and go elsewhere.

This school kicked my 3 year old out after she had attended since she was a baby. They gave her lice and sent her home. We did the treatment and they checked and accepted her back. The next day they called to send her home with lice again!I had already missed 3 days of work and was obviously upset. The director Holiday is incredibly pretentious and we got in an argument. At the end of it all she was upset I called her teacher because her title obviously meant more to her than my daughter ever did. She was offended i said daycare instead of preschool... lol. Who knew and more importantly who cares? Just like that she kicked my babygirl to the curb and just think... for 3 years i was leaving my daughter in the care of a woman that never even cared about her!
