TYL II Preschool & Childcare — Local services in Philadelphia

A huge concern for us, and a question we asked, was regarding our infant’s exposure to screen time. We were told it would be “developmentally inappropriate” for our child to have access to screen time, we agreed. However, my son watched cocomelon daily, which I witnessed at several pick ups, and was told by staff he “loved watching”. His socks and the knees on his pants were often filthy coming home, telling all that needed to be told about the cleanliness of the room. My son’s teacher was calling him by the wrong name, which I had more than three conversations with her directly about, though it continued (despite his name being written on all of his belongings as well). There were several instances where the facility was closed with only a days notice, leaving working parents to scramble. Then, they started doing half days once a month… that’s when we left.

Parents check on your children here.

They made false promises and allowed the same teacher to continue to work with my child and treat him without professionalism becuase she was mad. They are unprofessional...

TYL 2 is a excellent child Care facility which lives up to its four star Montessori rating. Not only is the facility clean but the staff is very attentive to needs of every single child that enrolls into their program. I have personally worked for the company for about 5 years. It's a very family-friendly environment that warms my soul every time I come to visit. Their food program is top tier collaborating with some of the best nutritionist in Philadelphia. I've seen kids enrolled from when they were three up until the after school program they are 10 years old. The teachers are very consistent, trustworthy, and put a strong emphasis on education and keeping your children busy. They live up to their five-star...
