  I like NLPS because they accept all the kids that are coming to join the school and they are very patient and open to help the child and the parents to work together on improve the child behavior they try to work on the Children because they know not all the children are the same but they know they can work on help the child to improve one step at the time and I know some cases where their child behavior was not good and they still keep them and now the children have change a lot without these school many parents could not have a childcare for their children and plus the schedule is very beneficial for parents that work early in the morning or late at night! :)

  Could not get my daughter out of there soon enough. Rude staff, they never knew where my daughter was and I had to wander around looking for her every day with each teacher saying "she isn't here today" or just not know who I was talking about. Instead of calling me when my child had an accident the had her removed her soiled clothes and just wear snow pants all day. She was embarrassed. Also told my daughter "666 is bad number," and "God is your real Dad." They do not know if we are even religious. They raised the price when I said we were leaving without even telling me. BAD. It also concerns me that most of the good reviews on here are by the staff from there...

  When my kids were enrolled there, they left both alone in different room. I came for my son and he was playing in the dark with 3 other kids. I looked in and could see the changing table and no one was being changed or in there. Yet the owned said there was. And another time my step dad picked up my older son (he was in a different room/class) and he stated no one was in there either but a few other kids and one was crying. He said after he went in and got him, a lady finally rushed in and said can I help you. The owner again said he was lying her words. YOUR A LIAR! Another incident I let my son take a water bottle to his room cause he wasn't feeling well. Which they got sick a lot being there. And the water bottle came up missing. I asked each teacher. And my other sins room if they seen it. And everyone denied. So I asked the owner and her words were if they say no then it wasn't here and he never came with it. Surprise all of a sudden they found it 2 days later. And it was in my older sons room. While I know my younger soon had it with him. While I was registering my son's, a lady was excusing them of being unprofessional. And I thought well she's just having a bad day. But now I see what her reaction was. They are unprofessional. They leave children alone. They allow them to cry for long periods of time. They take things. And the owner yells that your a liar. And says no I'm not going to believe you your lying.. very unprofessional.

  I like Northern Lights Preschool there clean, the teachers are nice and it's educational for kids but the reason why I did not give them 5 stars is because I don't like the fact that if you don't pay them by the 5th of each month they charge you A $$25.00 late fee. If you are a single mom working a minimum wage job and have to pay your rent and trying to pay daycare plus the $25.00 late fee and try to feed your kids well let me tell you it's a challenge! Mom's like me need people who understand these struggles and instead of punishing us every month let us pay you each month on a day that maybe works better for the parent. I will be glad when my 5 year old is finally in school.

  This place is horrible. I had to report them to the state more than once. My son was not a napper at 3,4& 5 years old they would make him lay on a cot and he would be punished and not allowed to do anything for the rest of the day if he moved, he was never provided an alternative. The "playground" outside is a joke! I swear all they ever fed him was crackers and broccoli. The whole facility smells like hot dirty diapers and garbage all of the time because it's hot upstairs and there is no circulation. There is so much more these are just the beginning! This place is a horrible place to bring your children, I tell everyone I know to stay away and I hope to god that they get shut down.
