I have an 8 month old infant and the infant room at Creative Child #2 on Clear Creek has been where my infant has been since 6 weeks. The staff is very professional, friendly and open to my family. I would recommend this center to anyone that asked.

We just recently PCS here (9 months) and daycare on post was full. I chose a daycare for my children and it left a bad taste in my mouth. 2 days later I walked into CCLA #2 and my children's eyes lit up and they have loved it ever since!! My son is 3 and his teachers have been truly amazing from taking their time with him to teaching him. My daughter is in the after school class and she really loves it! The staff you couldn't ask for better they don't only watch our children when we are not around they take care of them so we can leave in peace knowing they are fine. After having a horrible experience at one daycare here I can truly recommend CCLA #2 to anyone!!!

Great daycare and very friendly. I couldn't have chosen a better place for my children to go during the day and after school. The staff is awesome and customer friendly and they take good care of my little ones. Check this daycare out and you won't be disappointed.

I agree with lily42. I really wanted to like this day care, but I was wrong. They have way too many children to take care of for the amount of staff they have. And they hire very few good staff members.

My wife walked in there one day and found an aid screaming at our 16 month old daughter and another toddler in her class. They were in the corner, crying. I've never seen anyone treat toddlers like that. Anytime I saw the staff mistreat a child, they looked at me with the "dear in the headlights" look. I'm assuming it's because they didn't know I was there.

Twice I walked in and found staff snatching children by their limbs. One of the times, a staff member grabbed a 15 month old girl by her arm and yank her to the ground. When I confronted the management about it, the german woman up front told me that "it looks worse on camera." I told her that I saw it in real life, but her response was that the 15 month old needs that kind of behavior. I was disgusted that a day care would tell a parent that some children need to be man-handled.

I told the german woman that the girl's parents would probably not be happy with the treatment of their child, at which time she told me that they're not going to find out because she won't give us the names of her parents. She also refused to let us see the surveillance video.

I then told the manager that I'm seeing a lot of negative behavior of staff similar to what I've been reading in on-line reviews. She told me that we need to be careful what we read on-line because the people that post bad reviews are parents who don't pay their child care on-time. I told her that was ridiculous because I'm seeing the same things in person that I read on-line. She refused to listen to me.

Another problem that my wife and I both noticed is that we never saw anyone cleaning the tables or toys with any disinfectants. Our daughter would come home sick on a regular basis. Now that we have her in another daycare that actually disinfects, she is rarely sick.

Our daughter would cry every morning when we dropped her off and beg us to take her out the minute she saw us every evening. She has never acted like that in her new day care. I believe there's more abuse going on than what we are seeing.

I would highly recommend that you do not send your child to this day care. If you do, go in a odd times that aren't typical pickup. The staff members know when to behave themselves. The abuse I saw occurred when they weren't expecting me and my wife to be there, usually between noon and 2pm. Please check it out for yourself.

I love Creative Child on Clear Creek. I have had some bad experiences with childcare in the past and was leery of putting my baby anywhere. I was greeted at the front with kind professional service, given a tour of the facility, and then I signed up the same day. My baby has been in the 18-24 month room and just moved up to the two year old room. I have nothing but good things to say about the care that she has received and would not take her anywhere else. They have curriculum and learning even for the little ones and do not just sit and watch the children they teach them. This is most definitely not a DAYCARE but it is a school even for the babies.

I have three children that have attended Creative Child and I have been very happy with the school. The teachers and staff are all very professional. My children are well cared for and love going to school during the day. There have been several days where my baby was having an off day and cried at drop-off. The teacher talked to her and reassured her making her feel better very quickly. She was not crying when I left and this made me feel much better about leaving her. I would not take them anywhere else.

Don't enroll your child here. Not a real private school. My child was almost four years old and they had him in the two year old room because he would have accidents from them not taking him to the potty (which the staff admitted that it was their fault). "We were outside playing or in between classrooms. It wasn't your child's fault that he had an accident." My three year old started biting because he was in a room with two year olds and the director would not let him advance to the three year old room because the teacher could not get my child to the potty. Unacceptable! One day the teacher said that everyone had an accident. I knew it was time to go. When I put in my two weeks notice, the assistant director had the audacity to ask me if they put him in the three year old room would we consider staying. $$$. My child is at a new daycare and has no accidents. My child would cry when I mentioned school or if he saw the center. He would fight us to not take him in. Run.

This place is a scam. They charge you for a registration fee because their fake school year starts on Aug. 1. If you say, I'm not paying because my kid won't be there for the school year they tell you that your kid can't come back after you've already paid for a full week's tuition. The regular school year doesn't begin until mid to late August. So there is a three week overlap of summer daycare and the REAL school year that allows them to take money from families that the families won't use. It's utterly ridiculous. Every other daycare we've been in charged supplies fees on Sept. 1.

If that's not enough, they use the same curriculum in their K4 classes as KISD. Why would anyone with any sense pay $130 a week for a public school education at a place that is trying to bill itself as a private school? Go to a private school and pay less money for an actual private school education. My daughter didn't benefit academically either. Do NOT waste yours or your kid's time with these jagoffs.

My children attend this center and I absolutely LOVE the teachers and the staff. They have been nothing but friendly and professional since my kids have been there.

I had such high hopes for Creative Child 2, as it was so close to my home and is BBB accredited. Within 6 months I learned how unprofessional and neglectful the staff, especially the director Mrs. Martina, really were. As a first time mom I am very thorough. I like to check on my child's well being throughout the day and thank god I did this as I was able to see neglect in its full force. Seeing babies stuck under rocking chairs, crawling out of their rooms and feeding times not written down were forgivable. But when I went to visit my child and saw how bad her diaper rash was I almost fell in tears. Her skin was so broken and cut it looked like they hadn't changed her diaper in days. And I was never given notice about this situation at all. Thankfully she is ok now but please please DO NOT place your child in this daycare, I am begging you. I don't want to see any other babies go through this or worse. Please if you can, use care.com or ask your friends where they bring their children. Do not take a chance in a place you're not for sure about. Especially not a place that puts more effort into their facilities decor and cosmetic appearance rather than what actually matters, the CHILDREN!

Creative Child 2 is an amazing...

Creative Child 2 is an amazing daycare!! The staff is very professional and friendly. The owners are very involved and wonderful people. You will not have to worry about your children when they are in creative child's care. They take excellent care of both my children. My sons are blossoming and learning so much there. They have tons of fun and love going to preschool. The facility is state of the art and over the top. It is the nicest daycare I have ever seen in my life. Everything is brand new and age appropriate. The classroom are very structured and are a fantastic learning environment. My 3 year old takes dance class, computer class, and Spanish. He knows all his colors, shapes, and can recognize his number and letters. He regularly gets a report card. Needless to say it's impressive!! And my 20 month old is coming up right behind him with his speech and education as well. I would highly recommend Creative Child Learning Art Academy location 1 or 2. As my boys have attended both. If you want child care you can trust and an environment where your child is doing more then just playing this is the place for your child.
