We sent our children elsewhere after being pressured by grandparents that they’re friend Debby would be a safe place for our children. Theirs no reason people should trust Debby with children after reading the founded reports. The comments on this page makes us wonder why so many positive reviews suddenly showed up. What’s up with people thinking their experience was the same for everyone? Most obvious: the provider is working hard to make a fuss to cover her tracks
I have known Ms. Jump for 30 years and she is a knowledgeable, kind, loving, professional children’s caregiver. I hired and have worked with her in a church classroom for many years. Her ability to engage with children and parents and her commitment to families and the children in her care is unsurpassed. Unfortunately there are a few negative reviews on this site about Ms. Jump that are generated by an unstable woman; please don’t be fooled. If you are looking for excellent care for your child, please talk to Debby and go visit her center. She is the best!
Debby Jump provided care to my two sons for 3 years and 5 years. I had reservations about in-home care prior to selecting Debby Jumps program. I had experienced and visited multiple day care programs in Loveland and Denver. I was so disheartened by what I observed that I helped launch Explore and Discover 18 years ago. It's a family cooperative daycare program going strong in Denver today.
I found Debby and her staff to create an educational, safe and loving environment. My sons gained a strong foundation for K-12 and now they are thriving in college. Debby has stayed in touch with our family and there are many holiday crafts we cherish today that my sons made while in her care.
She is dedicated, well educated and committed to her profession of providing excellent care for children.
Deborah Jump has put children in harms way and is dishonest about founded reports with the state. Thankfully, we were encouraged to look into reports and question why Marlene McKenzie has signed off on all investigations. We cannot in good faith recommend Deb Jump’s country day for children at this time and would recommend alternate care by a reputable provider for your family’s needs.
Our son has been in Debbie and Lindsay's care for the last 14 months. My husband and I have been very happy with our sons care here. Debbie has worked with our son to help him learn his numbers and letters. He comes home with multiple crafts that they do every week in her home. Debbie reads to the children and engages with them to help them learn new skills. Her outdoor play area is made for children. Our son has really thrived in her home and I know next year when he goes off to kindergarten he will do very well given everything he has learned at Debbie's. I continue to recommend other families to Debbie's. We feel very fortunate to have found her in-home daycare and feel our son is safe and cared for in her home.
To Any Concerned Readers of the negative comments:
The Colorado Dept. of Human Services is the regulating agency for childcare providers. You can find the ONE report with all accusations from the disgruntled former parent listed as UNFOUNDED regarding Ms. Jump there. You can also find this information on the Colorado Shines website.
My spouse and I are currently investigating the legal actions Debbie can take against the defamation occurring on the website. We believe the negative comments are the product of ONE individual under various names (names of parents we've never met.) Debbie has an excellent, long-standing reputation in Loveland including active participation in industry boards. Our family considers her family, and we refuse to stand by and let this bullying occur.
Readers need to be aware that a form of cyber bullying is occurring on this site. A disturbed individual using aliases is writing reviews and posting links that are unfounded. As a current long-term parent, I do not recognize the names. No doubt this individual is attempting to win back custody of their child or some other ugly business by defrauding Debbie. Please contact the center directly to gain references from multiple satisfied parents who have had children in Debbie's care before, during, and after 2017.
I am Debby Jump, the child care provider referenced on this site. My entire professional life has been dedicated to providing high quality child care to children and their families, as well as advocating for children, families and quality programs for all who need them. I have never had a founded incident of child abuse in my program. Unfortunately, in the age of the internet, individuals can use false names, create multiple email accounts and post anything they care to, whether or not the information is accurate. The place to get accurate, valid information regarding child care programs and providers in Colorado is the state's official website: Coloradoshines.com. Descriptions of programs, locations and other details regarding programs can be found there. Inspections can be reviewed there, as well. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me at the above referenced phone number. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
My name is Melissa (Mitzi) Garnett and I have known Debby for over 35 years. I have a strong background in child development and have been a Teacher for 28 years in Thompson R2J school district. After reading the negative comments written about her and her child care home, I needed to respond. Whoever orchestrated these comments seems very malicious and vindictive. When my grandchildren were old enough for child care there was only one choice for us, Debby Jump! My sons Brooks and Briton, their wives Van and Maria, and of course the children, all adored her. She and her daughter Lindsey were included for all birthday parties as well as other family gatherings. I am concerned that the person behind this could be a disgruntled parent that made false accusations about this facility. While Debby was asked to make one change, which she did, the rest was found unsubstantiated. All of the parents were interviewed and made it clear that there were concerns about the parent's mental stability. It also concerns me that anyone can post a comment on this website without accountability. If you would like to communicate with someone who is not scared to put their information out there, feel free to contact me at [email protected]!
My son went to school with Debby and Lindsay Jump for about a year and a half. He thrived at this school. We all viewed Debby and Lindsay as extended family. My son felt safe and loved, and loved going to school. He learned so many social skills, and was more than prepared for Kindergarten when he left this school. He loved the outside environment, he loved the bikes and swings and being able to run around in nature with his little bare feet. We always felt safe at this school. Debby hosted family events, and helped the families at her school to become a community. My son is now in 1st grade, and we still talk to Debby and Lindsay, and "The Red School" frequently and fondly.
Founded reports aren’t hard to find: https://na74.salesforce.com/sfc/p/#o0000000IHut/a/1J000000MUc5/ORAeiaudpKeiEVds_qmhwus3Sp2IMwab4E0OHTivl6I
I am appalled at some earlier posts and wondered if a person is trying to defame the character of Debbie Jump and her services as a professional daycare provider. Falsifying names and information is so easy in this review format. I have a strong background in child development and have known Debbie approximately nine years. I also have had two grandchildren in Debbie's care and helped my daughter select this unique facility. Beware of people with malicious agendas! Visit this facility, listen to her , learn her background and then decide.
My two children went to Debby for full time childcare from when they were 3 months until they started kindergarten. She is by far the best childcare provider in Loveland and I have referred her to many families. She is kind, loving, attentive AND on top of her nurturing care, has her Masters in Early Childhood Development. My children benefitted socially, emotionally and educationally from their time with Debby. I have read the reviews on this site and the negative reviews are appalling and are absolutely false. If you are considering Deb as a provider please talk to her and ask to talk to some of her current and past families for accurate information.
I am a grown former attendee of Debby's Country Day Care who spent the time from my birth to entrance to kindergarten (5 years at least) under Debby's loving and nurturing care. From my time there, I have created life-long friendships and I will forever see Debby as a mentor and part of the family. The pure love she provides for her children could only be paralleled by the parents themselves, and their safety and well-being is her first concern. Debby is an honest woman and will be happy to meet with anybody seriously looking for a childcare paradise, as my parents had been.
The negative reviews on here make me sick to my stomach as I think of the incredible person Debby is and the incredible business she runs. From my first-hand experience, I know they are entirely false and only posted in an attempt to hurt the genuinely loving woman who cared for their children. There is no doubt in my mind that this is the best place for children to flourish and grow into kind, loving, and compassionate kids.
The care is frightening when we discovered what she didn't tell us. Families: review founded allegations of abuse in Deborah Jump and Lindsey Jump's care. The reports are available upon request. If people knew what Debby hides from parents and how grossly inadequate the supervision is in her care, no one would send their children here for care.
Please do your children a favor and find a center where more than one responsible adult is present to care for the children. Children are not safe in Debby's care at this time.
Our family has nothing but compliments about the exceptional care our son has received in Debbie’s program the past three years. Our child has thrived there; benefiting from loving attention, thoughtful socialization, and endless creative activities. Debbie has a master’s degree in early childhood development and decades of experience in childcare running a classroom setting outside of her home. I can’t say enough about the support we’ve received at every stage, from infancy to potty training.
This is grossly inadequate care. Founded allegations were not enough to hold Deborah accountable, so we recommend keeping your children far from this provider. She does not supervise the children; kids put one another in high-risk situations while unsupervised. Ratios were not checked and the provider violates confidentiality to ensure her social support is maintained. This is a prime example of where families should drop by to check if the caregiver provides the care she claims. Be wary.
I have brought my children here for more then six years starting with first to second child and she is family. Always teaching the children new things and engaging them in fun activities.
