BETHEL CHRISTIAN CHILD CARE

Our son has been going to Bethel Christian Daycare for 4 months now and we couldn’t be happier. All of the care givers in his class have been so caring and kind. There was definitely an adjustment period for our son and the teachers are experienced and knowledgeable which allowed them to know how to help through the adjustment period. The assistant director is very helpful and kind as well - as is the director. Our son LOVES going to daycare each day!!

I am genuinely so grateful for the love and support we have found with Bethel Christian Daycare. From the moment our first started there, the caretakers have been incredibly helpful and have shared nothing but love for our children. I have highly recommended this daycare to many of my close friends, and I look forward to all of my children getting to experience the family we have found at Bethel.

My daughter attends Bethel and it has been an absolute perfect experience since day 1. I am thankful for everyone at Bethel daycare from the director to every teacher she has had thus far. Even the staff that is not in her room know her name and say hi to us. I am grateful to have found such a caring and friendly place to help my daughter be the best she can be.

WARNING!!! I never thought when we started at this daycare that I could feel so much anger for a church. We thought they cared about the health and safety of our kids. Covid-19 has been a huge eye opener for many of the parents at Bethel. It turns out the church’s only priority is money. Michelle is the leader of the daycare but she is beholden to whatever Pastor Dave says about the policies of the daycare. Pastor Dave is a mysterious figure that the parents have no access to. Michelle hides behind the excuse of, ”I’m just doing what my boss says”. The daycare essentially has zero Covid prevention protocols in place. There is occasionally a sign on the front door that says “masks required”. Don’t let that fool you, masks are optional for all of the teachers including Michelle and her husband, who never wears a mask. I would guess 20% of the teachers wear masks. There are no other Covid protocols in place. They say they cannot force employees to wear masks or get vaccinated. The parents think maybe 50% of the teachers are vaccinated. They don’t even follow the CDC guidelines for testing once there has been a Covid exposure. They are letting kids come back after 5 days with a negative Covid test (I suspect this is so they can keep collecting everyone’s money). The particularly greedy part is the fact that they are still charging families full tuition for weeks where their children cannot attend the daycare due to unvaccinated and unmasked teachers having Covid. It feel like stealing. They are collecting $300 per kid per week and providing no child care. You might ask why we even stay at a daycare like this. If you are reading reviews of daycares, you probably understand how difficult it is to find daycare spots. We feel trapped by this place that doesn’t care about the health of our children and only wants our money to keep their tiny church going. Note: I am writing this under a pseudonym to avoid any negative repercussions for my child. But I can assure many parents at Bethel feel the way I do.

My son has been attending Bethel since April and it has been a wonderful experience. The class sizes are very small and they do not deviate from the allotted number of children per class. It is clean, quiet and cozy. My son's teacher has educational activities planned every day and the children have a great time learning and growing together. There is a ton of positive reinforcement to encourage the children to behave appropriately and be kind to one another. My son's attendance at Bethel has been a wonderful experience for our family. The staff and teachers are all wonderful, caring, friendly people.
