Redford Christian Child Development Center

Our family has been attending RCCDC for two years and they truly treat the kids as their family!! They meet the children where they are and challenge them to be their best selves academically and spiritually. Their rates are truly unmatched for the experience you receive! It’s truly a hidden gem and I’m blessed to have found it! My daughter is fully prepared for school and I have no doubt that my son will be also be ready when it’s time for him to transition into school.

My child attended this center for three weeks and they definitely leave a lot to be desired. They treat 3 year olds without any grace and nurturing. I spoke with the director and teachers-where the director stated “normally black boys need structure”. I overheard the children being told to sit still and be quiet during mealtime. Which I shared with the director this reminded me of a prison set up versus an environment for children to learn and explore. She later shared that the kids when entering Kindergarten could count to 100 and write their name. She shared that she was licensed in some field, great I’m a mother of several children with great character and academics skills. At 3 years old I am focused on social skills and expressing feelings in a healthy manner. My child said another child hit him on the butt and the teacher dismissed it- without looking into it. This is nothing he experienced at home so either he saw this at the center or it happened. He also picked up some lovely choice words “hoe” and “wait until we get outside” was learned within his first week onsite. After speaking to the director about the interaction the next day his teacher threatened to take my son’s dinosaur as he entered the building; which he clings to like a teddy bear. They use a lot of negative reinforcement. He would receive assignments saying he used the wrong color crayon. Why were the other colors present?
They also take a very long time to respond to emails regarding accounting errors. They use a decent electronic system to log meals, arrival, and task. I wish they put more effort into creating a healthy environment for children.
