Marygrove Early Education Center

Daughter has been coming here since she was 8 mo old and she’s thriving! Absolutely amazing teachers who care and it shows

My son was there since 2024-2026. The first year was good. starfish did not have much early child hood intervention support as they say. Fun events for the kids some community resources are available but nothing to help with development. No speech No OT and don’t complain or if your child have challenges rather it is ASD speech impaired etc you will receive excuses instead of assistance. My child came up missing and was at the high school I found out months later , there was even an issue when my had a knot on his forehead with no answers I was offered a shorter schedule and an excuses. Incident reports but no intervention. Only good thing is that some of teachers and support staff is good they try to help and take care of the kids. I hope other families have a better experience.

If I could give zero stars, I would. If you love and care about your child, do not send them here. The school may look “cute,” but that is where the positives end. The site leader, Ms. Scott, is a horrible leader who is completely disconnected from both staff and students. She shows no understanding of children’s needs and offers no real support to her team. It is very clear the staff are unsupported, overwhelmed, and undertrained. Classes are constantly closed due to staffing issues—and it’s no mystery why. On several mornings, I have waited outside for the doors to open, only to be told at the last minute that my child’s class was closed. This lack of communication and consistency is unacceptable for a childcare facility. During pickup, I have repeatedly witnessed staff on their phones and not paying attention to the children. That alone should concern any parent. Leadership is a major problem here. Ms. Scott and Ms. Angry display zero leadership skills and should seriously consider different careers. This environment is unprofessional, chaotic, and stressful for both parents and children. Leaving your child in someone else’s care is already difficult. This place makes it worse. I do not recommend this school to any parent.

Children screaming and yelling outdoors all day long every day. Very disruptive to neighbors. Living near this new school has been very difficult. There’s constant screaming children and this year I can hear adults yelling at children through what sounds like a megaphone outdoors.

I wish I could give zero stars Our experience with Marygrove Early Education Center was absolutely dreadful. Towards the end of the school year, my child was continuously harmed by other students, and despite numerous incidents, no reports were ever made by the school. It is shocking and unacceptable that such behavior was allowed to go unaddressed. To make matters worse, I personally witnessed the staff being mistreated by the site leader. The environment was toxic, and the lack of respect and professionalism was evident. When I attempted to address these serious issues, I was met with a complete lack of support, acknowledgement, or resources from the school. I felt utterly violated and disgusted by the school's response, or rather, the lack thereof. The promises made to us about the experience we would receive were nothing but lies. The site leader was completely unreachable, making it impossible to resolve any concerns or issues. Ultimately, we had no choice but to withdraw our child from this environment. I feel deeply disappointed and regretful about our decision to enroll our child here. This school failed us in every possible way, and I would strongly advise other parents to steer clear. The lack of accountability, support, and safety is truly appalling.
