Red Barn Private School

I was very unsatisfied with how they discriminated against my daughter because she is disabled. They talk about having kids there with g-tubes but they wouldn't even give me an application to put my daughter on the waiting list. And thats because I even hired a nurse to take care of the technical stuff. They never called me back even after I would persistantly call and leave messages. I am so glad I waited because now my daughter is in early headstart and compared to my nephew who goes to the RedBarn my 2 yr old is at the same level as a 4 yr old. more

I must say that I and my kids enjoy Red Barn. The employees are really good. They have tons of activities, a great playground and have great flexible hours. You won't find a better daycare in town...i've tried. If there is a waiting list, its worth it. Theres a reason they have a waiting list. Others do not. Hope to see you there. more

This is the worst place to talk your kids. After enrolling my kids I heard about the child that was locked in the building and everyone left but I thought it was a one time mistake. This was only the begining to the issues at this day care. I have had several issues with the lack of care and attention to the children. My son was bitten numerous times and have bumps and bruises that they could not explain. They say they encourage potty training but in reality they give them enough attention and encouragement to learn. Both my kids were always coming home sick. I recently learned that my 1 year old was sleeping with a cup of milk for nap time and removed both kids from the day care. If you care about your children's health, do not take them here. more

We have three children in RedBarn. My original plan was to be a stay at home mom, but life happened and I had to go to work. Finding daycare was a very hard task for my husband and I. It's been over 3 years now and we have kids all the way from baby, to PreK. Being realistic I will say, that if I had any complaint about RedBarn I know I could go to the owner and come up with a solution. My kids are so happy there. They learn so much. We are very pleased with RedBarn. more

Reading the other reviews, I am not sure what problems a couple of these folks had, but my child has been attending Red Barn for nearly 2 years and the staff has always been great. Never a problem. Caring and watchful. Fully engaged in what my child is doing and what they have done that day, any problems, successes, so forth. Now in the Pre-K program and doing great. I think it all deals more with parental sensitivities rather then with staff and whether this is the 1st child or middle or later child...this is not my 1st child. Child loves their teacher - every one they have had since they started... more

From being a parent there I saw things that were not what I expected. I think perhaps if they hired people older the 17-19 it would be much improved. The way they seemed so careless forgetful and often disregarded my requests or commets was plain rude. I removed my son with in the week, Im sorry but a teenager looking after MY CHILD? Thats nuts I place my children in danger for one week while he was there NO I would not recommend this day care. more

I thought this was a great daycare center and the hours are hard to ignore. However, my daughter was incorrectly identified as exhibiting inappropriate behaviour and the correct procedures/protocols were not followed. When I took the appropriate action, I was looked down upon and have been treated unfairly since. I am pulling my kids out. more

I disagree with the other comments. I have 3 kids in Red Barn and they love it there. There is good and bad with everything and you need to choose for yourself. I have had them with daycare onbase at NASCC as well as the Bay Area Child Development Center and those places were awful and weren't for my kids. My daughter stated that a provider hurt her and squeezed her arm. I have heard nothing negative from my children. The hours are more fitting for my kids and the daycare is actually affordable another best part is if your child is sick 3 or more days of the week, they actually reduce your cost and if you are going to be on vacation all you do is pay a holding fee. Other places charge way more and even if you are on vacation still charge 100% of the cost and give your space out for drop-ins. Pros: Better Rates, will pro-rate for missed days Cons: is very large and has lots of kids more

This place is everything the other review says. It is dirty and very overcrowded. I spent a month here and it was horrible. They have way too many children and never enough staff. I expect a safe clean environment at all times for my children and so should you. This is not a day care I would recommend! Pros: NONE! Cons: Very Bad Environment! more

This daycare is on the top. The staff is great and nice. You might have to be on a waiting list but. after that it's great. The only daycare in CC that stays open until 9pm at night and they are 7 days a week. That's a plus for my family. Try it out! more

I regret not listening to my friends when they said "always" check a child care facility out thoroughly before enrolling. I should have listened. It was not clean and always overcrowded. Kids seem to get lost in the shuffle everyday. One of the teachers told me the moral was not very good and I saw first hand why she felt that way. This is not cheerful place behind the scenes and appears teach kids very little to truly prepare them for preschool. My children have learned so much more since they left. Keep looking. We're sure glad we did. Pros: My child made many friends. Cons: Dirty - Overcrowded - Has a Poor Track Record more
