My daughter has gone to the Skyline location since she was 2. She just started kindergarten last week and was placed in the TAG (Talented and Gifted) program. I know all of her teachers had a hand in this achievement. They are all wonderful people and genuinely care about your childs education and help them foster a love of learning. They really have been a blessing.

Grace Community Skyline has been wonderful for my kids. I have one child there currently. It has helped her tremendously with social skills. Ms. Rachel and her staff are so loving toward my daughter. My son went there for two years. He could read at 4 and now being 5, he continues to excel in reading because of Grace Community and their teachings. My kids love this school and so do I!! We are family at grace Community Skyline.

My daughter has been going to grace community since she was 1 and we have never had a negative thing to say! The teachers & staff are personable and caring and my daughter has always been well taken care of. I love the balance of education & fun the school provides. Its a comforting feeling knowing my daughter goes to school somewhere where she is learning and loves being there.

We have been very happy with this school and have never had a negative experience. The teachers are very friendly, the playground areas are beautiful, the classrooms are big and always clean, and the price is great compared to others schools in our area. I like that they have fun themes almost every week to get the parents and kids involved. We love that it is Christian based and they have Bible lessons every day. I have always been able to tell that the teachers love our son and he loves them too!

We love Grace Community School on Skyline! My daughter attended for 2 years. Now that she is in a new school we see how advanced she is for her level. It has been especially helpful now that she is doing online learning due to the pandemic because she has been able to do all of her lessons with no problem. She keeps repeating how easy her work is. We took her into the school to get her reading tested and she tested WAY above her grade level and I know it is all because of what she learned at Grace. We are so thankful to me Ms Rachel for all of her hard work with our daughter and so wish that they had higher grade levels so she could have stayed there. We will for sure be enrolling our other daughter as soon as she is ready for school. Thank you Ms Rachel and all the rest of the staff that always made her feel at home!

This place is AMAZING! I have all three of my kids there for three years. My youngest started their at 6 weeks and is now three. I have been to a few daycares around and this is by far the best. Ms. Rachel and her staff are very friendly, understanding and organize. Her and her front desk staff know all of the kids names. The am teacher says good morning to all the kids by name individually. They really are the best and always willing to help out-judgement free. I highly recommend this place. They even do fun activities during the summer and holidays!!!! The teachers really do help them with reading, talking, potty training, etc. It is a good structure balance of free play and learning!

My twins Love Grace Community School! They learned so much and had a lot of fun at the same time! Very impressed! My kids would actually come out saying WE LOVE SCHOOL! Mrs Rachel and Rev Aaron work very hard and are amazing! They teach about God, having morals and being kind! Grace Community School offers dance, music, art and karate too. They did a Christmas show and an end of the year show that was Incredible. I cant say enough GREAT things about this school and the staff!!

I was super nervous about sending my baby to daycare, but after touring quite a few I was pleasantly surprised with Grace Community School. Sending my daughter there has been the best decision. She loves going to “school” everyday and thats how I know Grace is such a great school! Her teachers absolutely love her and that is the most important thing to me. I am very happy we chose Grace, I would recommend this school to anyone!

* This review is specifically for toddlers/infants *My child attended Grace off of Skyline for about a month or so. The staff is great, however for toddlers/infants the teachers do not speak English. At 14 months old, my little guy is taking everything in and it is very important to me that English is spoken around him.This makes it very difficult as I had to play charades to figure out if my child was sick, had a temperature, or anything (notes typically were given). With that being said, most of the staff is still very friendly, caring, and looked forward to seeing my little one each day.We did pull him out and have him at a different school and have noticed a night & day difference with him.If this is not an issue with you I would recommend Grace.

My son started going to Grace in Skyline when he was just 15 months old and he is almost 4 now. It was a hard decision to send him to school being my first child. But I’m glad I did. My baby boy looks forward to going to school every morning because he loves his teachers and they’ve taught him to love to learn. Now my daughter at 1 year old started school and I know I can trust Grace ti take care if my baby girl. My husband and I have thought about leaving the area but our Grace Community School is the reason we’ve stayed.

They treat my daughter like she is their own. Whenever I have any questions or concerns, the parents dont have to wait a few days to hear from somebody. They help right at that moment. I was against my daughter going to daycare care but they truly changed my mind without even trying. I am very happy with Grace!!!!

My kids love Grace Community School. My son is 4 and loves all the Bible songs and learning Spanish. He always comes home with a new song and tells us he had a great day! My daughter loves her teachers and dancing and singing throughout the day. Both my kids are very happy and I feel confident dropping my kids off in the morning.

Our son has been cared for by Grace Community since he was 4 months old. He loves going to school and being with his friends. The teachers and caregivers are amazing. Our son is learning so much and he has social skills and is learning to communicate really well. He loves Bible Time and learning all the songs. Thank you for taking such good care of our precious son.

My two year old came home three seperate occasions with scratches in his face. There was no incident report made. Each time my wife had to inquire and each time no one could provide an answer. Other than these three encounters the experience has been great! I love that they offer Martial Arts and cant wait for piano lessons to resume. It would be nice if all GC Schools had the same tuition and fees. Also, military and multiple child discounts would be great!

My kids love Grace on Skyline. I think the vibe is great, and my daughter is graduating from kindergarten, loves to learn, loves her teachers and does read. Both my kids have been there since they were very young and are loved and all the teachers and aides know them. I cant imagine someone not feeling comfortable. I too get along well with them too.

Review №28

If I could give a zero I would there is a huge language barrier problem you can not communicate with the ladys in the infant room and then on the very first day of our kid being there. She came home with a accident report. And the director had a excuse ready to go as soon when we walked in to get her that day and tried saying it was our fault. What a joke this place is. WOULD NOT RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!!!

My son has been at Grace-Skyline since he was 6 wks old! He is now getting ready to graduate from their Kindergarten class and his reading skills are above his grade level. He has grown and matured under their watchful eye. They have encouraged good Christian character and values that he has learned from their Bible time and solid Christian education. The Bible says, Train up a child in the way that they should go and when they are old, they will not depart from it. Thank you Grace Community School and staff for being obedient to Gods Word. We have thoroughly been blessed by your commitment!

Unfortunately I had to change my review. After a couple of month our son was thrown out cause they couldnt handle him. Very disappointed.I really liked the idea of Grace Community. Events, Classes like Dancing, Art and Music. But Teachers seem to me having no good experience to handle kids when not listening.Only exception is Penguins Room. The teachers are awesome and get 5 stars! 🌟

Review №39

My 3 year old son said on Friday afternoon in front of the teacher daddy teacher hit me when his dad went to pick him up. The teacher was nervous and smiling trying to avoid the accusation. My son showed us the marks, he was scratched by the teacher on Friday, he has marks of her nails in the arms and legs, the marks on the leg were really deep with blood and now (after 3 days) he still have the scars. We went to the school yesterday Monday to talk with the director Rachel (since this happened on Friday afternoon) and we told her the situation, my son saw the teacher yesterday and he pointed out her saying again the teacher hit me. We made the police report and we contacted the attorneys already since this was a really violent and abusive behavior against an innocent 3 year old kid. Obviously he is not longer going to the school but we want to do this PUBLIC so every parents know what is going on in there.Since they have cameras (cameras that are only LIVE and DO NOT record) the teacher found a way to abuse my child in silence.I dont know the teachers name but she is one of the teacher from the Sharks Room in the Skyline location, she has light brown / blonde hair, she speaks Spanish, she is tall and she works all day in that classroom.PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PICTURES

I recently pulled my children from Grace. We started at Miramar in September of 2018. They were 8 weeks old. Within the first week they had both contracted viral meningitis and were hospitalized at Galisanos for days. Thankfully by the grace of God they both survived and made a full recovery. The daycare couldn’t have cared less when I alerted them of the issue. It is an infectious disease and they didn’t ask me anything or take any precautions to warn other parents! We pulled them and hired a nanny. Our nanny recently left because she is having her own baby this month. I reluctantly placed them back to Grace Community but this time in the Skyline location because it was close to home. Within a week again, they had double ear infections and terrible colds & coughs. I understand babies are going to get sick but after looking around and studying the location, Skyline was filthy, and WAYY over crowded. They started out in one room in the AM and were brought to another room in the afternoon. The toys were gross, the crib sheets weren’t fitted to the mattress, the women were standing around not interacting with the babies, they don’t speak a word of English. Its extremely frustrating when you cannot communicate with your child’s caregiver. I am a nurse, and a patient of mine (several actually) told me to pull my children from there for many reasons I will not mention. I reviewed my experience on google not being disrespectful by any means. That same day rev. Jeremy called me and in a round about way asked me to take my review down. Our children were back in Miramar at this point, because until my husband and I had a plan of action we preferred the Miramar location over the Skyline. I do love the girls that work over there at Miramar, they are truly great and very sweet. I do believe it is a tad cleaner and there are several women who DO speak English. After speaking with Jeremy who stated more then once he has 11 kids and kids get sick etc, my husband and I no longer felt comfortable leaving our kids with Grace. He in NO WAY threatened us, but I was uneasy after getting off the phone with him. We have since moved them to an AWESOME daycare, much smaller and is filled with loving awesome women. They interact with my children, they come home with their daily report, “we planted flowers today, sang ABC’s, went for a walk” they are 10 months old and have learned to crawl and pull themselves up in a week! I absolutely love where we put them! This place is more expensive but totally worth it. And here’s the kicker, they have had only a runny nose since starting. Because they do their best to keep it clean. I just cant express enough how I feel Grace is a factory. They get you in with low payments and fill their locations with minimum wage employees who barely speak English (shame on this so called Christian community). I would NOT recommend anyone bring their dog here, let alone their children.

I put a bad review, and then revoke it. I gave them the change to make up for the way they treated me and my daughter, and nothing has changed. I want to start by saying that Mrs. Rachel, the head teacher there, is absolutely horrible. She made me feel like I was crazy for asking her to talk to the teachers because my daughter was coming home with her panties full of poop. She is 100% potty trained, but sometimes needs help cleaning her self. She told me that it was creepy if a teacher is hovering over a 3 year old. Mind you, some 3 year olds arent even potty trained. Ive never felt so disrespected by someone in my life. I dont think its alot to ask for some one to help my daughter after she uses the bathroom. She could get an infection by feces in her panties. She also told me it was against policy for teachers to help my daughter. After calling the 800 number, I find out it is not against policy. Mrs. Rachel also treats her staff like crap, and is rude. I wouldnt recommend this day care to anyone.

I like this place my son has been going here almost a year now. The front desk staff are very nice and always in a good mood.Only downside of all daycares they charge for everything its a bit pricey..... It took my son to adapt to the place 2 months atleast, he was crying everyday thats because he was too attached to me,but with the help of his favorite teacher milagros she has been very nurturing and helpful since day one with my son,and still is. Im very happy they have her and she definetly needs to be treated special by management. GodBless her Sweet Soul and the nerves to deal with such toddlers.And Kathy while she worked she was very nice lady... Also his teacher now that has been in his class in the morning is also very nice to him and cares for him as her own!! I appreciate all that you have done and are doing GodBless you with health and happiness for eternity!

I had a terrible experience in this place ..... simply because my 4-year-old daughter was not paying attention, they made three reports and one of them left me writing that this school was not the right one for my daughter ..... just because not paying attention ..... to work with children you have to have a lot of pedagogy and psychology because all the children are not the same nor do they react in the same way .... really very disappointed .. for my part I will not recommend it to nobody .

As a Grandfather, I had concerns when my grandson started at Grace at the age of 2, and my concerns continued the almost year he attended. So, when I got a call from my son to go pick him up, because he was being kicked out of school for the rest of the day, (what he was told) I went to get him.My grandson is a rambungous, normal, 3 y.o. Yes, he can get in trouble, its part of being a child. This day was also 2 days in to, the 2 week notice of him being taken out of Grace because of a move, which I was actually glad was going to finally happen.When I got there, my grandson was separated, which was fine. I was then handed all his things, a refund of the rest of the week, and told he could not come back, at all, period!Reasons:1. He would not leave his shoes on. (First thing he said to me, was his foot hurt. Why he wanted his shoe off, and he said it happened at school. No note of that.)2. He would not sit down. (He’s 3, not uncommon, but, once I had him in the car, he said his belly hurt, and he was consptipated, not to go in detail.)3. He kept leaving the classroom, and they couldn’t have that, because of maybe a surprise DCF inspection ( Where was the teacher? It was not an exterior door.)This is supposed to be a Daycare, with trained employees. They couldn’t handle these things?Mind you, all this was being explained to me as another roughly 3 y.o. was being registered because they had an opening. It seemed strange to me, that as my grandson was being “booted”, one was being registered, and I was the one who informed my son, he had no daycare for the next week and a half, that he expected, and fortunately, he had vacation days, as we leaving leaving on a flight the next day, and the new daycare agreed to accept him earlier, especially when they heard where he was coming from.I had issues with trying to understand teachers (language barrier, accent, kind of thing) days when I picked him up many times. Not sure of Ratios, but there always seemed to be so so many kids, per teacher, and “after nap” time, all the kids were in one huge room. He had come home several times with bruises, bite marks, scratches.... they are kids, it happens, but rarely was there an explaination.Being a “church affiliated” daycare, the director tried to tell me they are held to the same standards and inspections as any other. I beg to differ on that, and try and find the home church, I couldn’t.I am SO glad my grandchild is OUT of there. Be warned, investigate, and I tried to tell my son BEFORE my grandson was registered here, I wasn’t comfortable, with what I had read, heard, and investigated. I have 6 grandchildren, all were/are in great daycares, except this grandchild, which has now hopefully been rectified!

Dont take your child here!!...moved from VA to the cape found this location and sounded pretty good, until all 3 of my kids have picked up bad habits they have never had before and eventually Asked to leave ..my 3 year old which they loved and seemed so excited when he came through the door is now to much to handle and blows my mind!...they call you to pick him up becuase he doesnt want to go outside all day, but they wait till you paid for the week then they call .. DONT TAKE ur kids there..they have way to many kids for the staff and supervison is low till an incident occurs and then some how there able to explain the full story like they were watching it occur...they stay outside most of the day like animals becuase theres to many kids to stay inside!! ...believe me its not worth the price .. Espcially when the payments double after a month.

Review №49

Grace community school located on skyline is the worse . My son and myself recently moved back to FL from NY and he also attended school up north. Grace community school was his first official school here in Fl . My son never had an issue when he was attending school in Ny. I hated how crowded the classrooms were .Everytime I would show up at any given time of the day there was never the same teacher or teacher assistant in the his class . I still dont know who is teacher was never was able to meet her. Was able to finally speak with the teacher when I called in and asked to speak with his teacher . But I am not convinced that whom I was speaking to was indeed his teacher. This lady knew no English and that took me by surprise a teacher that doesnt know English how is she even able to teach or understand the other non Spanish speaking kids. I am Hispanic I have nothing against the Spanish community but that was disappointing to me . Also she was very rude with me over the phone very short and I felt as if she was rushing me off the phone by telling me what I wanted to hear. My son was always complaining about A TEACHER PUTTING THEIR HANDS ON MY SON. Til this day after I addressed the issue to them they never did anything about it. My son still doesnt know any of his teachers or classmates name. WORSE SCHOOL EVER !#!#

I cannot urge you enough not to take your child here. They bait you in with low prices but, I promise you it is not worth it. They hire women who hardly speak english and are not teaching your child spanish -so dont be fooled. These ladies make next to nothing and handle a dozen kids a piece.I took my son when he was about 2 and he stayed for 8 months. In this time he had to acclimate to 4 new teachers. He cried and clung to me everyday. I chalked it up to him being one of those kids but, after a while I noticed several things: The women paid little attention to the kids. It was a complete madhouse every time I picked him up or dropped him off. Kids would be beating on each other, throwing things, screaming and 1/2 always had big thick blobs of boogers dripping from their noses (my son was sick every other week the entire time). At pick-up I would take a moment to watch my son from the window and once witnessed a little girl swinging a set of keys. She hit 4 kids (pretty hard) before I busted in and took them. The workers had no idea. Another time I dropped off my son and they were about to eat (always crap canned garbage). I put him in a chair and a little boy pushed him and told him to leave. I replaced my son and warned the little boy. This time he pulled the chair out from my son. The workers just stood there and did nothing about the situation. I tried to talk with them but they barely understood me. I put my son at a table all by himself and listened to him cry on my way out the door. I went back later to bring a jacket and he was still there, alone and crying. With no food to boot.The manager is nice enough but uses her home schooled daughters to teach the classes they offer older kids. Is this legal?They run through employees like water and I assure you, you will know why.My heartbreaks each time I think about how I brought my son here. He gave me all the warning signs but we were on hard times. As soon as we could we took him out and now he is at Family of Faith and it is unbelievable how different the children, staff and environment is. My son has excelled on all levels.Your child deserves better.
