Surfside Kids Academy

Only good review was posted by the owner David Lanier

Worst daycare I have ever in my life seen. No structure at all!!! The children do not get the attention they need because they do not follow the state regulations on numbers in the classrooms. They over work their staff because they cannot keep employees due to how bad they treat them which is unfair to the children a new teacher every week. My daughter got hurt every single day while going to the facility. I was also informed by an employee that the sinks in the classrooms did not even work and the bathrooms are filthy and never cleaned. Please do not take your children to this daycare for the sake of the child.

Worst daycare on the beach!!!! Kids are always dirty and lack of education and organization. There is practically nothing for them to play with especially outside. There is always a different teacher they can't keep good staff and over work the employees. The owner is very money hungry and don't be surprised if your money come up miscounted for. All the kids do is run around and hurt each other no structure what so ever!! Wouldn't recommend to anybody that loves their kids!!

My daughter attended this daycare from age 2 months to a year and we loved the infant room she was in. One teacher can truly make ALL the difference. My daughter had JUST turned 1 and without being transitioned or even contacted, the director David decided she would be moved to the 1 year old room. In the 1 year old room, the children have a strict schedule and some kids are almost 2! My child couldn't even walk yet! They will not give them a snack past 2:30 yet some days we couldnt pick her up till 6!



When I tried to discuss the issue with the "manager" because you NEVER see the director, I was talked down to and made to feel like I had not done my job of getting my daughter ready for the 1 year old room.



I feel things are kept from parents as well... Parents have a right to know everything going on with their child daily. If it were not for Ms. Linda D. (whom is no longer there) in the infant room, we never would have stayed this long.

Best Preschool on the beach!!!!
