The Discovery Tree Academy at San Pablo

New to the area, I kind of blindly went into picking a school for my VPK (4) and my 2 year old. I put them into Allen Center (AC Center) and pulled them out in less than a week. Traumatized, I told my children I had found a new school for them, they were so nervous because of the other Center. I spoke back and forth with Flo over the phone and then came and toured the center. She has been so awesome with the transition and all of the questions, overwhelming amount of frustration and phone calls, and really made me feel confident in her School. The first day, the kids came home telling me about their day, and I could seriously tell the difference. The teachers are great, the school is clean and "homey" and I would highly recommend this Center for your children! Ask for Flo!

Unfortunately Discovery tree at San Pablo wasn’t the best fit for my child I do want to mentioned what I did saw myself with the afternoon care young lady, I do not appreciate that you all ask for supplies and don’t use them on the kids, I came into the daycare and from the door I hear my child crying and I went and stood at the window to see what’s going on, and my son had boogers coming down his mouth and the teacher wasn’t doing anything I immediately came in and got a tissue to clean him, she right away said “his been crying for an hour” it’s shocking that she would tell me this because why would you let me child cry for a whole hour? Also why wouldn’t you clean my child ? She kept complaining that she couldn’t find any conform well you are absolutely not well train to do this job, My child had the worst experience here :( he would come home so sad not being himself he would cry on and off at night or just waking up crying something wasn’t giving me peace here. The only person here that gave me peace was the front desk lady and the caregiver my son had early in the mornings but I felt like my son was being treating like this on purpose so I can remove him from the program. Also everytime I would have them his sippy cups and I would pick them up again they were so dirty in the outside almost kinda like they would re use without washing it. And I don’t wanna hear anything that you guys can say no words can convence me after what my eyes saw so if I never got a call after talking to the front desk don’t call me now or respond to this because it will not make me feel better as a mother.

Good school overall. I appreciate the open communication with the teachers and the fact they love teaching. I have seen tremendous growth in my child and her appetite for learning. She is also in the VPK program.
