For me, Creme De La Creme does the best for my child. Yes I've heard that their teachers are underpaid...I just hope there's something I can help with that...

I have emailed the owner about keeping their website http://www.krkcopperfield.com/ up to date at <[email protected]> and have yet to recieve a response.
The image gallery isn't much of an image gallery. Click on calendar,news, newsletter, and on-line forms and nothing is listed. It appears the only functional links are for pre-registration, take a tour (which is not a video), Location, FAQ, and the menu. I will be more than happy to give another review once I recieve a reponse and notice a change on the website.

Yorkshire Academy is the best private school in Houston for elementary and preschool children. Its mix of smaller class sizes, challenging academics and emphasis on enrichment made it the ideal choice for our two children. We had not planned on keeping our kids in private school through 5th grade, but we did just that and it was the best parental decision we ever made.

They are really a bad place for a child to attend. They are always out of ratio, students are not feed correctly and the work staffs are completely unprofessional. They sell themselves as a Pre-School but really and truly they are not even close to a Pre-School, they are a childcare center. They are not honest with parents and are not appreciative of their staff. If you ever decide to have your child attend there, please ask a lot of questions. For example the turnover rate of staff, the meal plan that they provide, Incident Reports and Sanitation. If this review may not appeal to you or give you a sense of untruth, please visit the state website for childcare facilities, where they provide information such as this with more legitimacy and accurate documentation.

I have deemed it necessary to complete a review on behalf of my school. This is due to false information that has been posted to the internet by way of review.
If you are anything like me, I bet you feel that the internet and the cell phone are two of the greatest technological inventions developed since the automobile…lol. But on a more serious note, each of these inventions comes with a huge responsibility. We all know of the dangers that a cell phone can present when a driver is not responsible with it. With the internet comes the same responsibility. We have all heard about the “cyber-bully” that uses a social network to intimidate others. What about the adult, who has used the internet as a shield to infiltrate our homes to prey on our children. How about the release/posting of information that hasn’t been verified? Unfortunately reviews are not verified. Reviews come with a “good faith” responsibility. And as with cell phones, everyone is not responsible when posting reviews. Well, let me introduce you to a new threat.
The threat is most-likely (in this particular case) a:
• A family of a child that has been dismissed from our program for non-payment or discipline issues.
• An employee that has been terminated from our school for sub-standard performance.
• The competition. There is a childcare facility on just about every corner in Houston, which means there are plenty to choose from. Most owners/directors are responsible; however, other must find creative ways to maintain business.
So how do I fight such a threat? I invite anyone that has taken the time to read reviews and fully research schools to; come in for a tour of our school, learn more about our program, and form your own opinion of our school. Also – I will ask our parents to submit reviews that will describe experience at HECDA.
I have worked diligently to offer affordable prices to all parents, and create a safe learning environment for children. It hurts me deeply to see false statements posted about something that mean so much to me, and which I have worked so hard for. Please feel free to call us for more information. You can even ask for me personally (Mr. Chris). If for some reason I am out of the building, my assistant will gladly provide you with my personal cell phone number. I would love to answer your questions and address any concerns. Remember one thing – Just because it’s on the internet, doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s true. Research…research…research.
Thank you for your time,
CNC

kids r kids copperfield is a place that I will not let me child attend ever again. the teachers are in a room with a bunch of disrespectfull kids that need discipline. i never see anyone in the front in the morning when i drop off my child, when i pick up my child in the evening i see a young gentleman playing with his phone and the lady beside him stuffing her face with food. i don't understand how the staff can stay there with no help in the rooms and i don't recommend this daycare for anyone.

My children attendED this day care center, which I refuse to call a care center, because it is far from caring...On my tour they may it seem like the best day care to put your kids in and it wasn't.. I was a very disappointed parent as were my kids as well. My 3 year old was his first time ever in a center ..the first room he was in after watching the on site cameras, he spent his days at the table no one tried to comfort his tears or bring him in to share with others, when I called to ask how he was the teachers were rude and non responsive..My son cried everyday for me not to bring him or he didnt want to wake in the a.m either, I had him switched to another class every thing seemed to go better he seemed to like his teacher , then he didnt want to go again R was very loud and always yelling at the kids even called my child mean, and was also caught red handed, which she kept apologizing for but still got caught and still remains mean to the kids, . My school ager started before school with my 6 year old as well, the teacher would teach my daughter to make fun of fat kids or say mean things to others for picking on her instead of fixing the situtation, how do I know it was said in front of me...I had to remind the teacher that this was unappriopriate behavior for a teacher to be teaching this was not allowed for my child..my 6 year old was devestated while being made fun of by the same teacher by calling him a baby because he cried getting yelled at for another child's chair not being pushed in..My newborn is on a machine due to reflux and high risk for S.I.D.S, he was not hooked up to the machine and , even the lights were red at one point meaning no one bothered to check to see if he was ok by resetting the machine the teacher admitted and apologized for there was no room for mistakes he could turn blue or stop breathing, I thought d.c teachers were educated to handle challenging situations, I did d.c for 18 years prior from being a at home mom for 8 years before this having to place my kids in a d.c center which I was set against but when parents work and cant afford to stay home u have to trust the teachers to do your job while your at work thats what they are there for..Let alone the management is unprofessional, rude, uncaring and mean to the parents and kids, hearing a assistant manager tell a child that they are not worth there time, not realizing I was in the other room, and I even brought it to her attention in tears thinking what there parent didnt know, really was hard to swallow of course she tried to justify what she said, I laugh at the way this center is staying in business and does cooperate really know what is going on behind closed doors, cameras or not we cant babysit the teachers 24/7..I took my babies out of this place and found a awesome place which my kids cant wait to go to in the morning no more tears and sad goodbyes Im even happy with the care for my newborn its a very welcoming place an they give my kids positive attention and TLC, I am happy and they are happy! please be careful parents on this copperfield location think once not twice cameras r a good idea but the care they dont give your child is not worth it..find a place that fits ur family not what fits the budget...

Defensivedriving.com sucks! This place advertises as being the cheapest. Well, they're not if you actually want to get your certificate. I did their course and never got their certificate supposedly sent by USPS First Class Mail. After two weeks of nothing - and I live in the same state only a few hundred miles away - I had to pay *another* $25 to get the certificate FED'exed overnight. There are too many of these outfits not to just use a different one than these schmucks!
