Bixby Early Learning Childcare

My son was at Ms. Shalon for the summer only as he will be starting Kindergarten in the fall. I advised her in advance that I would only need summer care which was ok. He was behind in his academic skills which I was concerned about. Since she was a former teacher, she worked with him on a daily basis to get him ready for school. He would come home with a weekly folder filled with worksheets that he had worked on with her. She let me know that not only would she work on his letters, but made sure that he wrote them correctly. For example, starting a letter from the top and going down. But it wasn’t just academics. From the very first day my son would tell me that he had fun playing at her house. It was great not having the tears and literally physically having to pull him away from me which was my prior experience with a different provider. I don’t know what happened with the previous poster. I can only give my own experience which was excellent, no complaints, whatsoever. In the end I would highly recommend Ms. Shalon to anyone considering her as a provider.

I highly recommend Bixby Early Learning! Ms. Shalon has a passion for education, which shows through her care and dedication for the children. She is very patient, understanding, and organized. They offer a wonderful preschool program as well as various activities that encourage your child’s development. If you are looking for exceptional childcare, you will find it at Bixby Early Learning!

After one week, with no notice, care was terminated. At 5 pm on a Friday when there was nothing that the parents could do. You could have called earlier in the day and warned the parents. Moreover, denying care due to a child being special needs could easily be viewed as violation of ADA and reported. We don’t want to go there, but we do want to warn other parents of kids with developments delays that their kids will not fit here and should look elsewhere instead of wasting their time and money. We went to the doctors and had to get paperwork filled out. Why make us jump through so many hoops only to terminate care inside of a week? I maintain my one star rating and find it interesting that magically a whole bunch of 5 star ratings showed up the day after I posted. Also, one of the ratings is from the care provider herself. She’s padding the ratings to make sure she doesn’t lose business. It’s a shame; we had high hopes when we shared our daughter’s issues and still were allowed to enroll her. Reviews on here are meant to help people find the right fit; I want to make sure other parents with kids like my daughter are well informed.

Excellent place for children to Learn and develop social skills. Ms. Shalon is very professional and has a passion for teaching all children in her care. Very safe and comfortable setting with lots of fun activities to play with.

Spent a week at Bixby Early Learning Childcare while passing through the state of California. My 3 year old son absolutely loved Miss Shalon and her wonderful classroom. What a great experience with so much to explore. He especially loved the kitchen play area lol. Outside playtime was loads of fun. He made new friends and lasting memories. Thank you so much Miss Shalon and Bixby Early Learning Childcare. XOXOXO
