This location is horrible. They are understaffed and my nephew has been bitten/hit numerous times. He has special needs that require a weekly doctor's appointment and even with a doctor's note that did not allow him to attend. Management is not compassionate or understanding and lacks communication.
I love this place!!! Tara and Mr. Tony are such amazing people whom make me and my son feel like family and show a lot of support and helping my son. My son loves the summer camp that they provide and the aftercare program here. One thing I can tell you which was one of the questions I had “is it safe here?” “Absolutely “ if you are looking for a safe and comfortable place for your children or child this is definitely the place you want to go.
My child was there for about two months or so, they always switching around staff. The new teacher( Ms. Lucila) couldn't care less about the kids, she would yell at them and even ignore them while crying. I'm glad I was able to get my daughter to a school that is actually genuine and care about the kids.
I have had my kids here for 3 years now and I have not once had a problem. Ms. Tara is so good with my kids and makes sure that my kids and everyone else is taken care of. Mr. Toney is also a good one. I always see him interacting with the kids and willing to help when he can. Great team there.
Lil Rascals Academy Daycare is simply one of the best daycare centers in Florida. From the moment you step through the doors, it's clear that the staff and teachers are genuinely dedicated to the well-being and development of every child. They go above and beyond to create a nurturing and supportive environment, ensuring that each student feels valued and cared for. The cleanliness of the facility is impeccable, which gives parents peace of mind knowing that their children are in a healthy and safe environment. The staff also makes sure that the safety of the children is always a top priority. Overall, I couldn't be happier with our experience at Lil Rascals Academy Daycare. It's a place where children thrive, parents feel reassured, and excellence is the standard. Highly recommend!
Lil Rascals should not get any stars but I have to add one. I am going to have to report this daycare to the state. My granddaughter sustained an injury that should have made the Director call the parents immediately after it happened. The injury happened in the AM and at pick up time in the PM the mom saw her face swollen like a MACY's float without an explanation. She was taken to the ER-that's how bad it was. After hearing the Director's explanation the next day, I was furious. A nonchalant explanation. They put ice packs on it and wrote up incident report in spanish. Teacher never used app to share what happened. When she actually said she didn't think it was that serious because she didn't cry and she went to sleep. That's a scary situation to put a child in. She's a 17 month old toddler. Be careful with this daycare.
Parents Beware!!!!! I am really disappointed with this daycare, I really thought this was the one where they would care for kids but they are strictly business here. They switch staff all the time. My 2 year old had 3 diff teachers in a school year and they were all terrible. the teachers in the 2 year old class and the main one in the the 2 year old class b, they have no compassion towards the kids. Let me give you examples: my son will cry when getting dropped off hysterically and NONE of the 4 teachers standing or sitting (some on their phones btw) will get up to acknowledge my son until I brought it up, they will just stare and no empathy or words of comfort. I don't think they make the kids feel welcomed. I spend a day with them for an event and I confirmed that none of them interact with the kids at all. they let them just play on their own except for one. There was also a time we’re my child had a low grade fever and no one bothered me to call me until I picked him up and he cried like he was suffering and vomited. This daycare is the worst They have a so called app where they tell you they have updates.... NOTHING. they give you an attitude if you ask about your kinds day. my son who is fun and talkative was suddenly nervous and retracted and not social :(… he wasn't eating, I sensed something was wrong. I spoke to other moms in a short period of time and they all complaint of the same thing i did from the same teachers. Some of them complaint that they even let the kids on wet diapers for too long or refused to help the potty train. I brought issues up with the director but the issues continued.
I didn't appreciate the response Lil Rascals gave about my 14 month old granddaughter. She was developing a rash and they were questioned about it only for them to find blame other than their staff. For that to happen to her is that she say in a wet diaper too long without her having her own diaper cream. NOT DESITIN! Parents are to provide certain things for their toddler-so why would my granddaughter need to use another childs diapers or diaper cream? Why is she wearing diapers that are not hers?
