Miss Bloomingdale's Academy

I enjoyed working with the staff at Miss Bloomingdale’s Academy. There is a sense of family in this workspace that I highly appreciated. Everyone genuinely cared for the students and intentionally worked to maintain a fun, safe environment. Even in obstacles, such as renovations, or being short staffed on some days everyone rose to the occasion and showed up to work as a team to ensure the children still had the most amazing day!

If you are looking for a great school for your babies/toddlers/kids, i would highly recommend this Miss Bloomingdale. This is the second year that i have sent my kids here for summer. Staff and Teachers are absolutely amazing, understanding, kind and fun. Ms Sue is my kids favourite Teacher. They have fun activites for the kids, swim in summer and other activites during school year. Best part is they have lunch and snacks on site for the kids. Its added in the tution. Breakfast is available as well. Alot places I looked didnt have this facility, it really helps working parents (one less thing in the morning lol) and encourage the kids to try new foods with their friends. Cant wait for kids to come back next year in the summer.

The best daycare Ive seen anywhere near Irving. Ive worked as an educational administrator in PK4-5th grade public schools and charters for more than a decade, and I would pick Bloomingdales for as long as possible.

Finding the right daycare was a difficult experience. As we toured daycares, it seemed like every facility was clean, modern, had clear schedules and plans, and everyone had an app to let you check in. But each one we visited was filled with unhappy staff and crying babies.

Except for Ms. Bloomingdales. The owner walked us through to see each classroom and every staff member was happy. Some babies were crying, but overall almost every child seemed to be happy and enjoying their day. I dont know if the ratios are better, but they SEEM so much better. It feels like every kid is getting personal attention. We saw kids being dropped off, excited to see their teachers. Everything felt calm and kind, not hectic or urgent. And every room had a teacher who had been employed for several years or more.

Every teacher our child has had truly cared for them. Teachers we havent even met formally yet greet them by name every time we drop off and pick up. The staff is so kind and patient and works so hard to meet us where we are as first time parents and be patient with us as we learn as well.

Every time we move up rooms, it feels like such a huge stress. What if they dont like it? What if the new teacher isnt as good? They like their current teacher so much! Yet every time, they love their new teacher and adjust easily to the new routine--because again, the staff here is so experienced and have dealt with every type of child.

There are rough days, as there are anywhere, but never have I felt like my child wasnt cared for. The peace of mind it brings to know that my child is with this exceptional group of teachers truly made a substantial difference in our lives. I cannot recommend it more--five stars quite frankly isnt enough.
