Parent Reviews
We love S.M.A.R.T Beginnings! All of the staff are friendly and have helped my child excel. I highly recommend!
My 3 year old daughter has been at Smart Beginnings since she was 6 months old,. We love the staff and the atmosphere! Great Daycare and highly recommended!
"We absolutely love SBP! The staff is so incredibly kind and attentive. It brings me such peace of mind knowing my child is in a safe, nurturing environment every day. Highly recommend!"
We’ve had a good experience at SBP. Our child loves going there!
We were looking for somewhere my 3 year old son could attend who has SPD, and we came across S.M.A.R.T beginnings, did a tour and automatically knew we wanted our son to go to this facility! They are so educated and hands on. I can’t wait to see my son thrive here.
I’m so happy with Smart Beginnings! My daughter has blossomed since starting here. She is socializing with other kids, making new friends, and loves coming to school every day. We are constantly impressed by the activities they do that we'd never think of at home. We get daily reports with photos and feel confident that she is in a safe and loving environment. It's been the best decision for me and my family.
We have had a great experience at smart beginnings, our child has a wonderful teacher who communicates with us and has made the transition from being a stay at home mom to working mom so much easier!
All of the teachers are absolutely amazing! They take such good care of my daughter and she is learning so many new things! We appreciate everything they do for my daughter. Keep up the amazing work!
My daughter has been going to SMART beginnings since she was 8 weeks old and she is now 7 months. Shes loving it there and gets plenty of activity and has even learned to wave bye bye because of the teachers being so supportive in my child’s development. When she was out for surgery , they checked on her the whole time she was out. We only had 1 minor incident to no fault of anyone’s , just her being a learning baby trying to sit up and it was looked into and addressed by the owner herself. They respond back quickly to all messages. I’m a worry wart mom and they send pictures of her daily. My daughter usually cries to go to people but she hasn’t once any time I’ve dropped her off at daycare.
We are so thankful for SBP! My son loves his teachers and so do we. Ms. LaQuita, Ms. Jaime, Ms. Ro, and Mr. Hayden have all been more than amazing to my son. It’s very evident that he is loved and cared for here.
The individual attention and care you all provide to each and every child, is without compare. We know without a doubt that our child, and every other student is loved when they are left with you.
My babies have been going here since 2021 and the staff has always been very caring and attentive. My babies absolutely love their teachers and enjoy going to daycare.
So glad to have my granddaughter where shes happy and safe couldn’t ask for a more helpful staff KATIE is the GREATEST no matter how busy she is she treats you like your her top priority what a wonderful wonder woman!!!
We have attended smart beginnings since 2021. In that time we have had 3 kids enrolled at the center. The staff has been extremely caring and loving to each of my kids and any and all concerns have been addressed in a timely manner. My children enjoy going to school.
Best place ever, my daughter loves it and we can’t be more grateful of the service here!
I have had the most pleasant experience with this facility and staff this is my first time putting my baby into daycare and he absolutely loves it, the staff is so kind and quick to answer any question I have and are always so kind everyday. I have noticed so much improvement in my child’s and he already knows his ABC’s before the age of 2 years old. I would recommend s.m.a.r.t beginnings to anyone!
The director's at this facility are AMAZING.As busy as they stay, their response time to emails is fantastic! Katie is sweet, understanding, & has the answers to all my questions. ReGina has a perfect foundation set for these kiddos to be successful when they start kindergarten ! Rachael is great with the parents. She makes sure to have the kids out as soon as I get there. The teacher's Genuinely care about the kids and their feelings. They are patient and if a kid is having a bad day the teacher's AND director's tend to the kid to comfort them as much as they can and let them know it will be okay.They use himama app so you can keep up with what your kiddos do all day. You can message the teacher or director's. YOU EVEN GET PHOTOS! That definitely put my mind at ease knowing I can I' click one button and see what my kids ate or how long they napped...WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE?!ve tried 2 other daycares in ocean springs this is my 3rd one and I'm FINALLY SATISFIED. We have finally found the daycare we were looking for all along. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
My husband and I currently have our 3 year old daughter at S.M.A.R.T Beginnings and we plan to also send our twins here when they turn 3 as well! She loves to go to school and learn and play with her friends, the staff is always kind, answers any questions I have and is very proactive when it comes to covid. They have been helping us potty train our daughter as well and it really feels like team work together with us parents at home and the staff at school. We also love getting photos of her on the HiMama app! Definitely would recommend this center to anyone and everyone!
That's right Momma! We are a team! Together we can make a HUGE difference in our children's lives. Thank you for sharing her with us. I can't wait to get the twins. ;)
I Absolutely recommend Smart Beginnings if you are looking for a good, clean, organized and family oriented childcare for your children. The directors and staff are very professional and they follow all State Mandates regarding the children. The daycare is huge and offers so much for all ages. I am telling you from first hand experience, I have two children ages 5 and 11 and they absolutely love it here. If I had to choose or recommend any daycare on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, it would definitely be Smart Beginnings.
Aww thank you so much Alexis! I'm so glad they love it here! We love them too!
