We really loved the Rainbow School. You get that family feeling there and I felt my child that was looked after for and safe! The owner Mary is very reasonable and friendly, and knows what is going on in the school. I liked that she is often around. Everybody there is friendly and helpful, even during the most stressful COVID times! My daughter loved every minute of it, especially time spent with miss Sarah and miss Sheetal, who are great teachers and always greet our family with a smile! There was lot of art and outdoor time,
and they have a lovely gym for when the weather is really bad. My daughter

If you are searching for a quality day care center for your little one definitely this is the place to give a go. The overall environment of the place is harmonious and as required for the kids. The staff is too amiable and I always saw my daughter happy with them. She is learning new things daily and I can completely rely on them for her security. Best services I ever came across.

My family is so pleased to find The Rainbow School. Our daughters love to come to here and learn fresh stuff, establishing a solid basis for their educational excitement. The educators seem to appreciate the individuality of children and foster creativity. They dance, sing, cook, create art, learn letters, tell tales of fantasy! I'm so thankful to feel confident that I'm secure and comfortable.

All employees and staff in here are professionals. I thought it would be horrendous because as the staff wasn't accustomed to anyone but their parents, for my 2 year old son. Well, I was petrified that they used to make my child brilliant in their fresh environment and helped mothers back to job!.. For me, they produced it much simpler to go home.

I honestly can't say enough nice things about The Rainbow School. It isn't an easy thing, having to leave your 3 month old daughter to go back to work. My husband and I are grateful that the school provides excellent care, and at almost 5 months, she is excited when we drop her off in the morning. I am very pleased with the amount of attention and engagement she gets from the staff, who truly seem to love the kids. Several times, I have been pleasantly surprised when I pick her up and there is craft that the teachers have made with her (most recently, a turkey made with her handprints

Just wanted to let you know how thankful I am to you and to your staff of The Rainbow School. I'm so excited about finding a daycare where I think my kids are so well looked after and loved. I was so impressed with program and loved that both of my children are taking such an active role in the performance. I was worried, as you understand, that the individual needs of my son would be fulfilled or not. But I am happy. Great job guys!!!

Since 1, our son went to the rainbow school. He enjoys a lot being there! The teachers take great care and assist every parent to feel comfortable leaving their children. When we arrive at here, our son always has a smile on his face. We also love the fact that they update us about daily operations, including what they had to eat. For a parent searching for a secure and friendly daycare, I would suggest these guys.

Beware of the fake reviews recently posted! I was going to give the school 2-3 stars until I saw they are posting fake reviews that are all 5 stars within the past month.
As a single mother of a young boy, I went to Rainbow from infant until later classes. There are a few teachers that are really good. However, once you get past them you are dealing with some really sketchy assistants. They will literally hire anyone to work there and it is not uncommon to have an assistant there and gone within a week. They do not notify of new teacher changes in advance which leads to chaos with the kids. Not

Can't say enough wonderful things about this place. BOTH of my kids went here from 2 years old though Kindergarten. All the teachers loved our kids like their own. Our son and daughter always looked forward to going. Great curriculum, the kids were always learning new and fun concepts. The owner and her support staff were truly there for me when I was a single mother and struggling. This is a place you can ACTUALLY trust with your kids.

Thank you Rainbow School for listening, being supportive of our little and knowing her. She walks in knowing everyone and greets as she goes. We've been very pleased.
A favorite is; As we live in a rainy place, I really like that even on rainy days the kiddos can use their large motor skills in a gym. There is learning time, a schedule and as a person with a background in child development and a history as CPS SW I've payed attention to the classroom set up and numbers in the classrooms. Yes, I even check bathroom hygiene and the checklists hanging in the classrooms for opening and

Staff are amazing! Extremely nice, professional & courteous. They strive to keep personal matters private & create a caring respectful environment for all involved from the children on up. If there are any issues, they truly keep their door open for discussions. The children are stimulated with play times, reading & fun projects. It would be nice to see the playground updated & upgraded, especially the side yard.

About 2 years ago, I went to tour this school in Klahanie. I was greeted by the smell of soiled diapers and bleach from the washers. They are located in summerwalk at Klahanie apartment complex and the classrooms are very dark and not very well ventilated. The staff at school seem to be more of day care providers than actual teachers. They provide food for kids and kids aren't allowed to carry food from home. You can send organic milk if you'd like which they'd serve at lunch if you give it to them in advance.
Pros: location, convenience if you are in Klahanie neighborhood
Cons

We do not recommend this child care center to anyone! We started our daughter there at 2.5 years old and consistently saw lack of care. The teachers are literally off the street, with very little formal training. I would come to pick up my child sometimes in the middle of the day and would find her taking care of herself. Her teachers were careless, unengaged and children were crying without intervention from teachers. My daughter was moved to a preschool class and then to a pre kindergarten class within a few weeks. Horrible experience with a director as well who was only worried about collecting

This is a great school. My daughter has been going her since she was 2 in the yellow class, she is in big rainbow now. She has been there almost 4 years. She loves it there and it's very difficult to find a place that has such dedicated teachers/staff and they actually care and love what they are doing. I get a peace of mind knowing she is being taken care of and enjoys being there. They really don't seem to be cheap when it comes to the kids. They seem to do so many great things for the kids. They get to go on field trips and do many fun projects. My daughter also has Spanish

We do not recommend this child care center at all! When an issue arose, the staff seemed not to care. They did not listen or even try to understand our concern, but just kept repeating same phrase over and over. The owner never called us to address our concern, either. Communication is poor. The classroom smelled. The school bus has dents and scratched paint on the side. We recommend looking elsewhere if you want your child to be safe!
