My daughter has been bringing her children here for over 7 years. The staff have always been great and they care about every child in their care. My grandson started in the beginning of January 2026 and has been doing great under Mandy’s guidance. Fast forward to June 22, 2026, my daughter was advised that this facility would be closing. After numerous calls, Rachel finally reached out and told me a refund for the balance I prepaid would mailed, we waited 2 weeks but no refund, my daughter reached out to Rachel and we finally got a check in hand. I want to thank Mandy and the staff of Great Beginnings for the love and attention that my grandchildren received while in their care. I also want to thank Rachel Ryan for opening a facility that cares about their children in their care. I’m sad to see this location close and I know it wasn’t an easy decision but the children that have come through the doors will be better adults and will grow up knowing our lord Jesus Christ and know they are loved.
Mark BergJul 9, 2026As far as the response I got: I communicated all of my concerns with both the president of the company as well as the center director. After doing so I switched childcare facilities for my son, as my family was treated extremely unprofessionally and hostile every step of the way. I find it very disheartening this center claims to be Christ centered, but the fruits are not of Him whatsoever, from what I experienced. I hope it gets better.
Caitlyn CastleMay 24, 2025Great Beginnings is where we send our children for preschool to prepare them for Kindergarten. We have now sent two of our children there and have had nothing but positive experiences. Even in their transition under new leadership, we have seen them change for the better.
Valerie AguirreFeb 26, 2025My wife and I have been taking our son here for the past 3 years. This will be his final year as he will be going into kindergarten next school year. It's been nothing but a great experience for us and him. He has made friends and has enjoyed all his teachers! I'm also thankful for all the different biblical stories and verses they incorporate into their daily routines! I recommend Great Beginnings to any parent/s looking for a good rounded preschool with biblical values.
Ronnie DFeb 6, 2025I have had the pleasure of being apart of the GB family for almost six years. Every single one of my kids have been through their doors. It’s saddening to see a review that talks illy about the 5’s teacher. I hope that if you read that review, then you also read this one as well. Great Beginnings has been nothing but a pleasure to be apart of. Day in and day out, I know that the people in that place are filled with light and God’s glory. Their intent is to raise up a child in the ways they should go, “Proverbs 22:6. Train up a child in the way he should go;”. There has NEVER been a moment where I did not trust or depend on a GB teacher to guide my children accordingly. Specifically, Ms. Mandy has prepared 2/3 of my kids for pre-k and has done nothing but a wonderful job. She has challenged them, loved on them, and prepared them to know what to expect in Kindergarten. (And I’m not sure if you know what the education system is like nowadays but it’s ROUGH). Realizing that there are moments where she needed to be tough to ensure that my child would be successful was apart of my job as the PARENT. I knew for a fact that she had no ill intent. She is HIGHLY qualified for the job, as both of my boys are gifted in Math. Let me echo this again, She knows what she is doing. I have recommended countless families to GB and will continue to do so. Pleasing everyone in this world is impossible. But, I can vouch and say that GB is one of the best places you can bring your child if you’re looking for curriculum that is filled with the truths of God and love of Jesus, teachers who know what they are doing and enjoy it, and a place that you can trust.
Sydni WardJan 16, 2024I can’t even begin to describe how much we love sending our children here! I have a 1 year old and 3 year old, both classes have taught our kids many useful things to get them ready for their future. I can tell the teachers put their heart and souls into the classes and my kids enjoy coming here! I can see the whole staff helps one another and everytime I’ve come to drop off or pickup the place smells clean and they work very hard here! I would 100% recommend this daycare! Special shout out to teacher Medy and teacher Alyssa, my kids love you and thank you for taking such great care of them when I’m away!
