A wonderful place for the development of children from 1.6 years old to school. Excellent and experienced teachers. A full range of classes: natural science, theater, art, English, preparation for school. All in one place. Separately, for kids from one and a half years old, there are classes for mom and baby. 45 minutes of happiness for the baby .We have been going for the 4th year and are very satisfied with the result and the quality of education
The child is 2 years old, we go to the Umka on Shchors from 1g 6 months in the group Mom and baby.
I'll start with the situation in the room itself.
The room is dark, the walls are painted with Lida paint, everything is kind of old, uncomfortable, gloomy. It is not convenient for children to sit at the table, the table is small, when all the children and their parents arrive, a crush begins, everyone sits elbow to elbow, there is also very little space in the office itself.
Next, about a teacher of the highest category with higher education, according to her, Elena Fedorova.
When the children gather before class, the teacher has such a busy expression on her face that she doesn't even have time to look up at the children and greet them. Not once in half a year of our school visit, neither before class nor after, did she communicate with children outside the educational environment. It is clear that she is not paid for this, it is clear that children at 1.6 years old still do not talk, but they understand everything. They are liberated from communication. Okay, they don't pay her for it, let her not communicate.
We turned 2 years old in March. Our child has been studying daily in the morning for a year with his nanny, with a former kindergarten teacher with a pedagogical education. What children do in the mom and baby group, our child has already passed and he is not interested in it.
I, the mother, wrote to Elena Fedorova, asking for the transfer of our child to another group, which is designed for children from 2 to 3 years old, let me remind you, we turned 2 years old. I also indicated the reason that our child was given such tasks for toddlers, the child is not interested in this and we want some more educational activities than sorting by colors, or even classes of another teacher, without a mother. To which the teacher Elena began to argue that her classes were interesting, she was a teacher with a higher education and we could not judge whether it was interesting or not. I want to note that in the group, some mothers also asked to change the format of classes, because they were already tired of sorting by age. In response, there was only some kind of aggression from the teacher.
She refused to transfer to another group for children from 2 to 3 years old, referring to the fact that since we came to the mom and baby group at the beginning of the school year, we should only attend it until the end of the school year.
That's a wonderful thing in general))) there is a group with children our age, but we can't go there))) we have to go with children who are younger than us, who were recruited from September to March))
And that's not all) maybe I don't understand something, of course)))
There is a payment for tuition by transfer through the ERIP. And there is a cash payment, without any checks, etc.))
Сложно оценивать после одного занятия в группе "мама и малыш", но ребёнку было скучно.
В возрасте 2,5 года черно-белые муравьи и пчелы в раздаточных материалах не заинтересовали (да и для взрослого отличия лишь в наличии крыльев).
Педагог активная, пытается заинтересовать детишек.
В данный центр развития возвращаться не планируем.
