Author: Keion Taylor Rating: 5/5 Date: 2/11/2023, 12:33:23 AM Review: My child started in the infant classroom in September. The enrollment process was so easy with the help of the office staff. They went over the policies of the school very well during the enrollment process. Mrs. Cristina, Mrs. Alexa and Mrs. Vanessa are always welcoming you with a smile. And they are always eager to help. The school is always smelling clean and looks clean. The teachers in the infant classroom are all very sweet and very loving. I strongly recommend this school. My son now 7 months old is always happy to go to school, and at drop off is always smiling never crying.

Yes

When you walk in, you feel a sense of security and peace. The ladies at the front desk are always very welcoming! I feel VERY safe leaving my children here. LGA is very clean and smells good. They are the best preschool in the area! What I love the most is that the teachers love on my children, and make them feel special. You walk through the halls and the staff always greets you, they acknowledge your child. They are very on top of things, if you voice your concerns, they will listen with action behind it. I am so pleased with my experience at LGA I will always recommend them to everyone! The BEST priced, the BEST center, the BEST teachers, the BEST OVERALL! Thank you so much LGA for all that you do for me and my family! ----- Author: Cassendre Kouakoua Rating: 5/5 Date: 3/27/2023, 4:43:45 AM Review: 5 stars is not enough to rate Little Giants Academy of Tamarac. They are clean, safe, nurturing, and loving. The teachers & staff make it a priority to treat your child with love and patience, and the atmosphere in the school is a dream. We are snowbirds and my 2 year old daughter had no problem integrating. Their program is well structured. I was impressed with their state of the art curriculum, including many learning activities through interactive methods. I wouldn't say anything less than "EXCEPTIONAL". We can't wait to return next winter! ----- Author: Lisa Rogers Rating: 5/5 Date: 11/13/2021, 3:57:36 PM Review: If you want a safe, clean, and friendly environment for your child to go to school, send them to Little Giants Academy. Ms. Cristina and her staff are amazing! I don't consider LGA as a daycare. It is an academy where my daughter has grown socially and academically. As a first time mom and with everything else going on in the world right now, I was so nervous for her to start going ANYWHERE! My princess is 3 now, and I am so happy that I found LGA where she can be safe, learn, and most importantly be cared for by professionals who actually care. To Ms. Cristina and to everyone at LGA, thank you!

The school is hands down very clean and beautiful, and it’s in a great location. The front staff is also helpful, which I really appreciate. However, I’m giving it a 2 out of 5 due to concerns with the PK3 classroom. One major issue is that the teacher in the front PK3 room does not speak English fluently. She frequently mixes Spanish and English, making it difficult for children (and even me as a parent) to understand her. When I addressed this concern with the front staff, they assured me it was temporary—but she remained in the classroom all day, every day. Another concern is classroom management. I noticed that some children were hitting each other, including my son, and the teacher did nothing to intervene. This caused him to stop playing with the other kids and he was also in a corner by himself. When I brought it up, she simply shrugged and said, “It’s just kids being kids.” While I understand that young children are still learning social behavior, a teacher’s role is to guide them and reinforce positive interactions like teaching them to keep their hands to themselves. Lastly, I was disappointed that they play Coco-melon in the classroom. While some may not see this as an issue, I personally believe educational settings should focus on more interactive and engaging learning methods rather than passive screen time. My son spent one year here and he barley learned anything during that time. Overall, while the school has many positives, these issues were significant enough to impact my experience.
My daughter has been attending this wonderful place. This is not your typical daycare where you drop off and they play, they actually learn. My daughter is 3 and she already knows how to write her name. And I have seen how mature and independent she is. I have no complaints about the teachers and so far Ms. Diana and Ms. Michelle has been the best. With them I have seen my daughter flourish in ways that I never knew it was possible. I'm grateful for the staff and teacher and kuddos to this 2 ladies specially Ms. Diana that even thought English is not her first language she does her best to teach our kids. (And I love the fact that she can speak Spanish to my girl also)
Best school ever for my Daughter Legacy! This school has been the best decision me and my husband have made for our daughter. The cleanliness and beautiful aroma when you enter into the school makes it very welcoming. The atmosphere of the employees is very inviting and friendly. I love the hands on curriculum they have for the learning and engaging activities! What really impressed me was when I did a pop up at the school to see how my daughter was doing at nap time blew my mind; she was sleeping so peacefully at the time the system notified me that she was actually napping. I’m a parent that love updated photos of my daughter and when I ask they give me a picture without hesitation. If you’re considering a second home for your child I’m here to tell you that Little Giants academy will be the best decision ever.
Alexa and Vanessa are the best management recommend this location for your child early learning 10/10
I have known this preschool since 2019. I can attest this preschool is the best. The care, intentionality and love is evident in all they do for the children. There is not other place I would trust my children with than Little Giants Academy. I thank the Owner and all the staff members because they really put in a lot work to make sure every child is cared for and grow in their development.
I recently visited Little Giant Academy to enroll my child, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Upon entering, I was warmly greeted by Ms. Alexa and Ms. Vanessa, two of the front office staff members who immediately made me feel welcomed. They took the time to walk me through the enrollment process, patiently answering all my questions and addressing any concerns I had. Their professionalism and friendliness stood out, giving me confidence that this was the right choice for my child. Both ladies went above and beyond to ensure that I felt informed and comfortable, and it was clear that they truly cared about the well-being and success of each student. Beyond the welcoming environment, the school itself left a strong impression. The classrooms and facilities were well maintained, and I could sense a positive energy throughout the campus. The staff exuded warmth and dedication, creating a nurturing environment that feels like a second home for the students. The school's emphasis on both academics and character-building makes it a standout choice. Based on my experience with the staff and the school environment, I wholeheartedly recommend Little Giant Academy to any parent looking for a caring and supportive educational setting for their child.
Me encanta este colegio, mi nieta a venido por un año y el servicio es inigualable. Las maestras siempre tratan mi niña de la mejor manera. Vanessa & Alexa son las mejores ❤️
Four years ago my kids and I started a marvelous path along the Little Giants family, we had the best preK and VPK teachers, we received love, caring, and amazing teaching. Today we are thrilled to move toward a new step, but our hearts always will be little giants… thank you all. Blessings.
My son no longer goes to this school cause he was treated differently from other kids . I was told I was races because I was an advocate for my three year old son. I was told by Monica that they was intimidated by me because I challenged then regarding my sons education and why he kept getting write ups for little things. I had multiple conferences regarding how to treat three-year-olds and two year. They treated two and three year olds like they were five and six and expected to act like they know better . I told them these are babies and they’re still learning how to adapt to there surroundings but to keep giving someone a ride up instead of having to deal with it not teaching the children how to control there emotions.They told me there not equipped to do so . I asked to speak with the Director of the school while she was on vacation. She told me that my son was suspended up until she comes back from her vacation for they can’t deal with me at this moment or I intimidate them so they cannot deal with me or dad for standing up for our three-year-old .Unreliable school doesn’t have time for toddlers , young and inexperienced teachers half of them don’t speak English and not certified.
My daughter has been going here for over 3 years. I just want to say the staff here is excellent, and caring. My daughter loves it here and was a big part of her early learning. They genuinely care and they great. I highly recommend if your looking for a good Pre-School.
