I used to love this daycare but COVID has had a real impact on the staff and leadership. We'd been using them for about 5 years when my son, who had just turned 2, wasn't napping or sitting still consistently enough for them, which is not abnormal for his age. One day they called me at work to tell me he had been crying for 45 min and staff was "threatening to quit". I was told I had to come pick up my son immediately and he was "not welcome back". All I heard was my child was clearly in distress and they couldn't or wouldn't help him. In hindsight, he was so scared of his teachers, it makes me wonder what else was going on in that room. When I tried to ask questions (transition time, etc.), the owner screamed so loudly my whole office could hear. She continued to not only insult me as a person and a mother, but my son as well. Their lack of professionalism and empathy is astounding. COVID has stressed them so much, It clearly isn't about the children anymore. My son is now much happier at a more stable childcare.

So proud to say my daughter excelled here from 6wks old till 5 1/2yrs old. Staff became family to us. I would absolutely recommend Creative Beginnings to everyone!

Extremely unprofessional and unreliable. My toddler was supposed to start daycare here and we were told he would have 3 weeks to learn the classroom schedule and get adjusted. The day before he was supposed to start, the daycare called and said he was “too active” for their staff and our spot was pulled from us. I was left with no childcare and in a days notice. I had to take a week off from work to find other childcare arrangements. The staff is not trained to care for toddlers that do more than just sit.

I stop by the daycare and try to ask a question if they have any opening spot for two years toddler, and a lady name Patrick and I asked her a couple questions and she he’s just ignoring. Have a really bad attitude.

This is the best daycare in the South Portland/Scarborough area.
