My daughter is going to the summer camp program at Sacred Heart. I had enrolled her in both summer sessions .She is 23 months, which in my opinion is a difficult age because they are acquiring the basic tools they need to navigate the world . The people at Sacred Heart seem to be nice and the school is clean. When I signed her up, I wanted her to meet other children and be in a structure environment. I thought it would be cute to see her run around in a camp shirt and have fun with other toddlers. However, I know that’s not the reality of things, and she may have been to young to attend this camp.Which is my fault. I should have did more research. I should have waited to send her to camp.The camp for the 12months to 23 months at Sacred Heart is babysitting. There is nothing wrong with babysitting. However, suggesting that parents buy camp shirts for babysitting sessions is not cool.Unfortunately, I bought the shirt, because I thought it was required. However, at that age they dont really require you to make them wear it. The children wear regular clothes. I also get generic progress reports that indicate time of changing, feeding mood and naptime.I’m not there, so I trust what they say. She is always happy according to the report. They change her the appropriate amount of time according to the paperwork. SInce she has been going to camp, she enjoys diaper changes. She sits still for them now. I have an issue regarding naptime policy. My daughter is taking 2 hour naps at school. At home she typically takes a 45min to 1hr nap at home after a full day. Also, her naps at home are usually at 4 to 5 in the afternoon. At camp her naps 11:30am to 1:30pm. Which breaks down to her being asleep a third of the time she’s there. Which sucks for me, because she is rested when she comes home. They use a white noise machine. The white noise machine is a tool they use to get the children to sleep. during the schedule time.I wasn’t informed. I found out because I inquired regarding how they were able to get her to go to sleep at the same time every day for a 2 hour window. My daughter sleeps close to it. I am that parent. I feel bad about posting this. However, I would have felt worst if I kept it to myself. Maybe I am crazy. I will talk to office.

My daughter went to this school the year of 2017-2018 in pre K 2. I just wanted to make everyone aware of an incident that occurred and I feel should be brought to your attention if you are looking at this school for your daughter . I received a phone call at 5 o’clock monday night while at work asking what time I picked up my daughter. Now I work until 6pm every day so I have arrangements for my mother to pick up my daughter and I drop her off in the mornings. I had responded To the woman on the phone did not pick up my daughter, my mother should have, but I know the weather was very bad monday so she must’ve went to aftercare. We normally don’t send her to aftercare. It is our first year here and she doesn’t go to aftercare, My mother did not know to sign her out. My mother had picked her up in between 3:30-3:45. The aftercare teacher was calling to tell me she had gotten scared that she did not know where My daughter was and did not notice she was gone. Now this call is at 5pm, I myself was concerned because I had talked to my mother last at about 3pm when she was on her way to get My daughter and if something were to happen and someone pick her up, I didn’t get a phone call till 5pm when she had noticed her absence. My child could have been ANYWHERE. Her exact words on the phone were “I must’ve gone to the bathroom or something and when I got back she wasn’t there and I had not noticed till now” I do not want anyone to get in trouble, or cause a problem. But that is a HUGE safety risk. After that incident we decided to not send our daughter back the next year. A year later i call to get my tax papers stating the tuition amount paid and a letter with the tax ID #. And i was treated so rude and disrespectfulby CONNIE And Suzanne in BILLING. I had to just hang up the phone. They are arguing with me over a $56 AFTERCARE balance. After that incident i did my 100% best to not have my child sent to aftercare. They could not give me the dates or times she went to aftercare just the MONTH. As i stated i did not believe my child went to aftercare. I paid $50 for a yearbook i did not receive and also had made previous donations to the school. All they have seemed to care about was money.
