As a former employee of Seaborn Day School Early Years in Beach Park, I believe some of my insight may be helpful when deciding who to trust with your child. As respectfully as I can, I urge you to choose another facility. Here are a few examples: We were instructed to always tell the parents that their child had a good day- even if they had a terrible day. We were told that “if it was bad enough to tell them, we would have called”. I did not agree with that policy, nor did I follow it. I am glad to have had a comfortable relationship with the parents of my kids in my class, so I would always tell them the truth about their child’s day. There have also been some licensing concerns that have gone ignored by the directors and owner. One specific instance was during our afternoon nap, we would combine a couple of rooms. We were always over-ratio, with more kids than allowed with the amount of adults we had. When licensing pointed that out, we asked our director about it later and suggested breaking our nap into a couple rooms instead of one. Our director then told us that we wouldn’t do that, instead if licensing came again, we would just “pull a few kids into the common area” before they came back to check our room. That is a clear example of the director putting her own convenience in place of the safety of the children. I have personally witnessed the director lying to parents about what we do and don’t do… We did not clean our toys daily or weekly like my director informed the parents. In fact, the only time I pulled out all of my toys and thoroughly washed them was after my class had a couple Covid cases. In addition to those things, we constantly had ants crawling everywhere. On the countertops, on the high chair trays, and on the floor. We brought it to our director’s attention many times, but nothing was done. My director also lied about contacting parents when she said she had. We had a student who was out for a couple days, so we asked the director about him. (We LOVED those kids like our own and we were worried!) She then told us that she would contact his parents and ask for us. Another week went by, and the child finally returned. We asked mom where they had been, since our director told us she never got an answer after reaching out “multiple times”. On the contrary, the student’s mom told us that she never received a call or text from our director. While my coworkers and I were always loving and compassionate, I do not think that we were able to make up for the systematic downfalls of this school. I want the best for your children, and in my opinion, Seaborn Beach Park will not be anywhere near the best.
I am over the moon with this school. My little one started there at 17 months and I have been so impressed by the amount of new skills and information he has learned over the past year. His vocabulary is amazing. He speaks in complete, complex sentences and is able to label nearly everything he comes into contact with. At two he can count to 15 and sing the alphabet. This is almost entirely from the school. He is so excited to tell me about his day and sing the songs he learned that day. He has been moved to "higher" classrooms twice and his teachers have all been terrific. He truly loves his teachers and talks about them often.
All of the teachers and staff at the school know him by name and greet him like a friend when we come in and leave -- even teachers that he hasn't had as his teacher. It seems that all the staff is very attentive to the children and have always been very patient with our questions and hovering. The programs for the children are age appropriate and seem to really excite the children. They have P.E. everyday and my child loves his coach. They have music class and special programs throughout the week. For the 3 and up students they have Spanish and computer class as well. My child has been so happy at Seaborn that he cries when we drive by the school on the weekends because he can't go to school.
I have witnessed them applying sunscreen and bug spray to the children on multiple occasions and the children line up and wait for the application like it is a normal procedure. Additionally, my child has eczema and they have always been happy to apply whatever over the counter or prescription he happens to be using.
I also want to note that the school is very flexible with us and the rules are reasonable. I love that all the holidays are celebrated and taught to the children. My child is so excited for Easter, Fourth of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving, etc. I don't feel that they push the children to learn things at all, but that they make the learning experience fun and exciting for them. My two year old knows so much from Seaborn that total strangers have stopped us while we've been out to say that they think he is a genius. We don't think that is the case at all. He is just a normal kid who is inspired by his school to engage fully with the world around him. With full time working parents we try to teach him as much as possible, but it is impossible to do everything. Thankfully Seaborn has been there for us and we couldn't be happier with the experience our child has had there.
