Pros: They got my son in very quickly and the admin was very kind and helpful throughout our month there. Cons: I can only speak on my experience and I am sure that not all teachers are like this. My 2 year old was here for a month and we left because the teacher sits on her phone all morning. They complained to us about our 2 year old all day because he had tantrums… Every day they told us he had diarrhea and we would need to pick him up if it happens again. His clothes would be completely ruined from blow outs daily and, as I suspected, they were basically just letting him sit in dirty diapers until he had a blow out. I had to ask the teachers to wash his hands. I would have to change his diaper at pick up.
Janah BrownApr 30, 2026There is such a positive difference in my kiddos behavior since I switched him over for over a year now and I am so grateful for each and every single one of them that had taught and helped him this whole time. 100% always recommend it
Blanca RodriguezDec 19, 2025I am very happy I was recommended here the directors are so helpful and active with the classroom they look into every situation you call in for when ever you check in if you don’t get ahold of them they are great at reaching back out my son is starting to blossom while attending and they are great at working with your child and won’t just toss them aside to make room for others. My daughter has been showing wonderful growth there as well and is doing great with the teachers. The app is updated throughout the day and even though my son is in an older class I get tons of pictures of both my kids I never got that with my old day care. All the teachers are so great I am very thankful for this daycare.
Ashlynn ScottSep 10, 2025I highly recommend Gingerbread House Daycare to any parent looking for a safe and nurturing place for their child. Ms.Marian is a wonderful teacher – she is energetic, caring, and treats every child as if they were her own. She organizes lots of fun activities throughout the day, keeps everything very clean, and follows all health and safety rules carefully.
maha naseifAug 26, 2025Our experience with The Gingerbread house was incredibly positive. The staff was extremely caring and attentive to my child’s education, needs, and feelings. One teacher in particular went above and beyond what would be expected. Daiyah has been an absolute blessing. When my child was in her class she couldn’t wait to get there to spend time with her. All the children seemed to gravitate toward her. It is absolutely obvious how much she loves her position and children. I 100% recommend!!!!
doug newbernAug 21, 2025My daughter attends The Gingerbread House and is in the Jellybeans classroom with Ms. Daiyah. I can’t say enough wonderful things about her! She is incredibly friendly, kind, and patient, and my little one absolutely adores her. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my baby is cared for by someone who truly loves what she does. We are so grateful for the positive, nurturing environment she creates every day. Highly recommend this school and Ms. Daiyah 🥰
