I am usually super easy to please, and I'm not bashing Jubilee. The staff was friendly enough and they really introduce the kids to alot of different things. However, I noticed some kids getting really ""eaten up"" by the teachers, and some left to figure things out almost on their own. For example, some kids could do cartwheels just fine, with the teacher calling the other teacher over and just making over the child. Meanwhile, another might be struggling to do the cartwheel, and pretty much get overlooked. That was just an example, I noticed this type behavior quite often. Also, the younger girls who helped where just not friendly or encouraging at all. (Well, really one in particular) I even saw a class end where there was only one child left who didn't get to walk on the balance beam, and the teacher looked at her watch and said, ""Well, time's up!"" I couldn't believe it! Meanwhile, they spent a good 3-5 minutes handing out popsickles to the kids! The child was visibly upset when denied the chance to walk on the beam, but again, overlooked. One last thing was they played movies like Harry Potter and Scooby Doo in the waiting room. This may be totally petty to some, but my kids aren't allowed to watch these type movies because we're Christians. So again, may seem petty, may seem important...just depends on your beliefs.\r

Overall, my kids did learn things and were always excited to go. Unfortunately, they've lost my business. Just as a mom, I saw the behavior I mentioned very unprofessional and completely unnecessary. A friend also commented on saying the place had a bad smell. I never really noticed a ""bad"" smell, but it didn't exactly smell clean either.\r

I hope this review will help some Mom's out there make the best choice.
Pros: worked with the kids on a lot of different things
Cons: gave special treatment to kids who were ""better""
