Bryden Academy is Family

It saddens me read the negative reviews below. Nothing could be further than the truth, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. I really only need one word to describe Bryden Academy....family. This week, my family was forced to relocate and place our children in another center. It was one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make. My boys (5 and 3) have been attending Bryden since they were both born and their amazing teachers have basically raised them together with us. They truly love our children and have always been there to enrich their lives, play with them, teach them, and if necessary keep them in line - my two boys are a little rambunctious. While both the kids have learned shapes, letters, counting, basic math, and tons of other stuff even before Kindergarten, they received the best education possible, playing. Many centers tout their curriculum as the primary reason to attend. While important to find a school with a great curriculum, Bryden certainly has plenty of educational time, yet will also give them ample opportunities to just be children. The obvious stuff was always there, clean environment, good food (more on that later), education, and supervision. However, Bryden really takes the time to get to know each of their children and truly cares for them. I could never say enough good things about Denise (Director/Owner), Tina (Asst. Dir), or all the amazing teachers - too many to name - that have been a positive influence in my children's lives. Denise is always trying to improve the center and provide the best program possible. Recently, they decided to remove all processed foods, even though the State allows this. Slowly they introduced fresh food, vegetables, fruit, and meals using whole ingredients. My kids have benefited from this and will eat more "scary" items at home. Depending on your schedule, three square meals plus snacks are provided throughout the day. It's been a lifesaver more than once. Overall, Bryden Academy is an amazing school/daycare in a state that is inundated with competition. It is always best to pick a place that best fits your parenting style. Give Bryden a try and let them be part of your family, you won't regret it.

neglectful and dirty

Neglectful and dirty. I will be taking my kids out as soon as possible! Every time I stop by, one of my kids is always watching TV-whether I'm dropping her off or picking her up. The teachers are wishy-washy...they say one thing one day and then treat you like you're stupid the next day. The google reviews make it sound great, but I'm thinking they were probably written by the staff.
