Little Learners Lapeer

I'll start by... Unfortunately my son's father has taken it upon himself to not returned my child, that's obviously another issue. However I recently learned that he enrolled him in this daycare. As soon as I found out I contacted this daycare. The most concerning thing right from the get-go, was that I called the daycare and simply asked by my son's name if he was there, I did not give my name, I did not say that I was his mother, and immediately the answer was yes. That is highly concerning for a daycare to answer whether or not a child is present and not even know who they're speaking with. After explaining the situation to them, I emailed our court order to them, which is very clear and shows that I have custody of my son, and his dad only gets every other saturday. I did inform the daycare that I would like my son back and I do not approve of him attending that daycare. I had my reasons, one of them being I just didn't want him to be hopping around, and he needed to be returned to me. Upon receiving the court order, I called the daycare to confirm that they had it, at that time they had informed me that our court order was over a year old and they had received papers from my child's father that were only a couple weeks old. I asked them what those papers were, and they told me that he had turned in a motion from the courts, a simple motion that he had just filed, nothing signed by a judge. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that you follow a court order, not some written paper by a parent. Still, they refuse to work with me, and at this point they are speaking to me as if I am nobody. Telling me that they cannot give me any information. Will not confirm whether or not my son is there so that I can go pick him up. And are threatening me with cop intervention. Obviously I'm aware that if cops are called, it will be to confirm that the court order is to be followed. But it is the way that they are speaking to me and threatening me. Further, when I try to get any information or try to explain to them that they are in the wrong and they are listening to a parent that does not have custody right now, they tell me that they don't have time for this, and they hung up on me today. Highly unprofessional, not well-informed, I understand that things can get difficult when the parents are not together, but for a daycare, they should know a little bit better than this. I had never heard anything about this daycare before, nothing necessarily bad, but nothing good. And now I will never have anything good to say about it.

This place is absolutely amazing. I only had my granddaughter there for a week while I had her, when the time comes that I have her again, I will definitely choose this place. They’re very thorough. They update you and everything throughout the day so you always feel like you know what’s going on. Everybody is very pleasant and friendly too.

We love Little Learners! Not only is the staff so welcoming and friendly, they are the best at supplying updates through the day including pictures and a daily note of something my son did well that day. They offer snacks and lunch included in the weekly price and I have noticed my son has been less picky since attending Little Learners as they offer a wide variety of food. Lastly, and most importantly, I've noticed amazing skill progression since he's started. At 20 months he was using silverware independently, making animal sounds, and identifying colors. I can't say enough good things about Little Learners! They are the best and I highly recommend anyone to enroll their kids.

This daycare has done wonders for my son. He has opened up so much more than he ever has and the staff there is amazing! I’ve experienced two horrible daycares and tend to be “that mom” but I would send my son to Little Learners over and over again.

This place has treated us as family, gone out of their way to help and teach my son. No matter what has happened as a whole, the center, the teachers, the director and the owners have gone above and beyond to assist and accommodate everyone through all the trials and tribulations life have thrown and it’s like having an extended family, that village that everyone says you need when raising kids, especially as a single mother.
