About the Provider

Description:

Welcome to Precious Memories Pre-School of Sandy Hollow. We are a learning and development center designed to provide children with the experiences that help them grow socially, cognitively and academically. Along with this exposure, the center provides a warm homelike atmosphere where the children can feel comfortable and secure. A strong emphasis is placed on healthy eating habits, regular exercise and mental well being. We believe that a preschool day should reflect an interest in the whole child. Each child has physical, social, emotional and cognitive needs that must be enhanced.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My son has been going to this daycare for almost two years . Yesterday an incident occurred where my son was supposedly having a tantrum, stopped breathing and passed out. All I received was a call from the daycare to come get him. I wasn’t told what he was doing when it happened or what made him so upset. As if this wasn’t scary and hard enough, I get a call from his daycare today telling me my son is no longer welcome back because the owner and her staff “aren’t comfortable with his episodes” I find this to be very unprofessional considering I work full time and now have to hope to get my son into another daycare or find child care on absolutely no notice. This was his second time with this breathe holding spell and he had been cleared by THREE doctors to return to daycare. I will be reporting them to the state .

I have toured this provider's facility, but have not used its services

Our experience at Precious Memories Preschool of Sandy Hollow was very short lived. Less than 15 minutes if were being honest. We brought our two-year-old son into their facility for his first day. He was very excited to start his first day and ran right to the classroom we were told he was to be assigned to from our previous visit. The owner of the facility told us that we are not welcome back due to him not being compliant. He did not listen to her when we first got to the center (shocker he is a two-year-old that was there for less than 15 minutes and overly excited) and when he fell out of his chair he cried and ran for us because he was scared (crazy how he ran to his parents to console him...). Those two reasons were enough for the owner to justify that we are not welcome back and our two-year-old is just not going to be a good fit. I’m not sure as to what they expect out of a two-year-old, when this is normal and age-appropriate behavior. But apparently our two-year-old was a safety issue as well. Regarding how they allow their doors to the classroom be unlocked for the children to open them without a gate which in my opinion, is a safety issue for the children.

However, I warn any parents who are looking at this center to be wary. Even the staff apologized on account of the owner and were unsure as to what happened. Very unhappy and ashamed that I even thought this establishment would be kind to my child.
