There's a reason the owner has been in business for 13 years!!Depending on Your child's learning style and personality, they will have different needs. The first five years are especially crucial for physical, intellectual, and social-emotional development. Which is why they focus on teaching children how to learn and not just what to learn. The motto "learn something new every single day" has Stuck with my child who is in her elementary school's Gifted and Talented program along with so many of her classmates from Little Flowers.All staff are required to have a 4year degree in early childhood education. On top of that they are meticulously screened to ensure they contribute to the kind, loving, patient, caring, responsible, nurturing, and supportive environment that every child deserves and needs in their first years of development.They also manage to keep their teacher/student ratio low, further contributing to each child's needs for development. There's no wonder why they have a short waiting list for new children.They are always adding fun and interesting lessons to their curriculum. Special classes with outside instructors include visitors from the Gladys Porter Zoo, UTRGV Coastal Studies Lab, Robotics, Honey Bees, Rocketry, Airplanes, and many more subjects. The kids do not realize they are learning because it is so much fun!Miss Patty and her incredible staff have maintained a 4 star rating year after year! If you're not familiar with the Texas Rising Star program, it is a tri-level certification to encourage child care and early learning programs to attain progressively higher levels of quality. Children who attend schools with high ratings are in a better position to positively affect the physical, social-emotional, and cognitive development of children. Basically THE STATE OF TEXAS has deemed this business to far exceed the expectations of basic early childhood education and development. (Look it up, it's a big deal!)Miss Patty and her team truly are a blessing to the community and our youth. They promote parent involvement and assist with ways we can continue their efforts in the home as well as the classroom.I am beyond impressed with this school and feel so blessed that my child was able to attend this school, even I learned a lot from them! Thank you little flowers team!!

My nephew has been enrolled at this centers since he was 8 months old, he is now 4 years old. The amazing and loving teachers he started with in the baby room treated him like he was family and their own baby. As he moved through the classes he leaned so much, not just his basics like abc or shapes but how to be a good friend and student. I feel super confident that he will thrive and do so good when he goes to "big school" after he graduates from Little Flowers.

My son was enrolled here when he was 3. He had only turned three a few months prior to enrolling, had never been to daycare before, and at the time was an only child at home. He was very behind with talking so I thought enrolling him in a daycare would help him. Patty and the other lady were constantly telling me how behind in speech he was, how he didn't like to share, and how he would not listen when they would put him in "time out." My son had never been taught at home what "time out" was so he would get frustrated that they were making him sit in a chair in a corner by himself. He simply did not understand. One day the owner Patty called me that there had been an "incident." My husband immediately went to pick up our son and when he arrived at the day care my son had a big welt on his forehead and was crying. Patty told my husband that our son would not stay in the time out chair so they put him in another room by himself (which happened to not have any cameras) and said he began to throw a tantrum and accidentally hit his head on the computer desk. That was the last day my son ever attended there. Patty claims no fault for anything and the worst part is she never even sounded sorry. She only ever was defensive about her actions. These women should not be owning a daycare. We moved our son to Smarty Pants daycare and within six months his vocabulary was flourishing and he continued to thrive there!

My best friends daughter attends this facility. She came home with a big mark on her body and no one could give an explanation for the mark. When asked to speak to the director, she was told by the director to take care of her own child or take her else where to receive child care. This daycare is extremely unprofessional! Staff is unbelievable! Do not take your children here.

Just 3 weeks into school, my son is showing major progress. He loves going and the teachers are excellent. I love how monthly progress meetings are done to check in on how your little one is doing. I would most definitely recommend this child care center.
