If Ms.Chris is still there for the infant classroom then i would pay whatever the price is. We love her so much and she took such great care of my son Elijah! We left because they taught bravo curriculum and wanted more stem. However, upon leaving, the daycare was going through changes. A lot of new faces and tuition had changed. What was already a lot went up by even more. I - at the time - paid $331 a week.I also adored the staff we had at the time but they fired basically all the old staff, which is very unfortunate because the reviews are trash now. Ive actually seen a lot of parents move their children out and have even gone to the daycare im currently at. Its sad because doodlebug used to be good, even the workers - whom are my clients - don’t like working at doodlebug because of the mess of the staff.Anywho, i called to ask if ms.chris was still there because my son loved her, but they couldnt say. We wanted to drop off a red envelope for her for chinese new years but they wouldnt allow that.

1. High turnover in staff which is never a good sign.2. My toddler was beaten up every day by another toddler twice her size. Nothing was done to correct the behavior. I brought up the issue multiple times to the director and was told that “it was typical 2 year old behavior and no matter which daycare she went to there would be this type of behavior”…. SERIOUSLY?!!!! I withdrew my daughter from this facility as I could not bear to watch my little girl be hit and kicked any longer. I still had to pay a month out for childcare!3. Never really knew who the teacher would be… always someone new… never ensured my daughter had her water bottle close by. One of the teachers would leave her water bottle on top of the cubby where she could not reach and would end up drinking from another child’s water bottle. We had to call at least every other day to notify the teacher on duty that she didn’t have her water bottle…. On the plus side they at least had cameras in the classroom so I could monitor.

Very unprofessional and unorganized. The staff lacks empathy and integrity. Always avoiding professional discussions pertaining our concerns until it is too late. Completely failed and disrespected my nephew.

My son has nothing but good and positive things to say when talking about Ms. Andrea and Ms. Tiara when I pick him up from DoodleBugs every day. Thank you and you two are truly appreciated.

A shame to the Oviedo community. Unprofessional and unexperienced with kids. Staff needs improvement

I started sending my son for the pre-K program then shortly after I sent my 2 year old daughter. I’m so pleased with the care and attention my children have received. The staff loves what they do and the Tadpoles/WatchMeGrow apps keep you updated on your child’s day. They also have a super secure entrance system. As a caretaker myself I absolutely recommend this place!

I really wanted to love this daycare but unfortunately it was just impossible. The facility is beautiful, looks clean, everyone was welcoming and friendly. I enrolled my baby after my tour. She was only attending daycare here for about 2.5 weeks and I unenrolled her. Over the 2.5 weeks I witnessed several unacceptable behaviors. I should have known better starting on her very first day when she wasn’t even entered into their system for the daily reports. Once she was in the system, I believe on her second day, they were sending me photos of another baby instead of mine. Their documentation of feeding is beyond unacceptable. They never had the correct amounts offered vs. fed, they would tell us at pick up one thing about how much she ate during the day and the daily report would say something completely different. One teacher would say she ate her bottles no problem, and finished it all, while another would say she struggled to finish or she took over an hour to drink only a portion of the bottle. There was question as to if my breast milk was being dumped, as we kept getting told she only drank a portion of her ounces provided, but that they “ didn’t dump “ the remainder. Not sure how that’s possible if the bottles came home empty. I had very transparent conversations upon enrollment of my baby’a strict feeding schedule due to slow weight gain, and her weight gain pretty much halted during her time at this center. Upon several conversations with the centers director, I was advised my baby “ took to long to finish her bottles and they had 9 other babies to feed”. There also was also a situation where one of the teachers left a bottle out after warming much longer than the safe timeframe to do so, and fed it to my baby anyways, and my baby had gastrointestinal issues ALL night long due to their negligence. The response from the director was “ she doesn’t normally work in that room”. As if that’s an excuse for understanding FOOD SAFETY for infants. Despite all of the feeding concerns and issues ,as if that wasn’t enough, the hygiene issues I witnessed were honestly shocking. Even with webcams in the classrooms that parents could view at any point in time. I witnessed one teacher rubbing her bare feet with her hands and then touching both the nipple and bottle she was feeding my baby. Another was sitting on the floor picking her nose and flicking it on the carpet RIGHT next to other babies. She also proceeded to care for and feed the babies without washing her hands. The last time I picked her up, my baby was handed to me completely soaking wet from head to toe. I immediately asked why she was soaking wet and I was told “ I don’t know, I didn’t notice, do you know why she’s wet or what she’s wet with?”. WHAT?! There was also HAIR wrapped around my baby’s bottle nipples when they were sent home that evening. I discussed with the director as to why I was unenrolling and WHY this was the last straw, she advised “ let’s talk about this elsewhere because there are other parents around and I’d rather them not hear this. They are happy currently and I’d like to keep it that way.” I wasn’t going to write this review, but that comment made me realize that other families needed to have an idea of what goes on at this place which appears picture perfect on the outside. It’s really upsetting that my family had to encounter the magnitude of issues we did in a short 2.5 weeks at this center. Especially when this center costs significantly more than others in the area. Upon unenrolling, the director tried telling me I needed to pay 4 more weeks of tuition if I pulled my baby out without proper notice. Luckily the corporate office was more than helpful and immediately rectified the situation as soon as I hung up with them. I hope this review helps other families make the right decision for them before deciding to enroll, as well as prompt current families to really take a close look at what is occurring in their child’s classrooms. Especially the infant classroom as those babies are even more vulnerable to these huge safety concerns.

Highly recommended.Kind teachers, polite staff, fingerprint security, accepts credit card payments. They worked on potty training with our three year old and have water play, a pool, an outdoor playset including tricycles and an indoor playset.

As a grand mother who constantly watch the screen, I found them to be doing a great job. Considering how things are with lack of help they are good. Mrs Quineisha has always been welcoming and deserves credit for her transition from teacher to director which I'm sure has not been an easy transition with this pandemic and all.
