My name is Imani and I went there since kindergarten, I love it!! The teachers are so kind and I met many new people!

If your child is anything but neurotypical, do not send your child here. They left my child in an open doorway with no one immediately supervising or standing with her while she waited for me to pick her up after removing her from the program. There was 0 attempt to try to understand or help my child and verbally told her she was not allowed back in their program or in their building. She is only 8.

My 8 year old daughter is being bullied and threatened by a girl who’s 4 years older by the name of Qamara and Rainey is not taking it seriously. The girl was suspended for a week for doing lots of reasons and came back doing the same thing. She was also assaulted by a 14 year old boy named Elijah. My daughter is taught not to argue or fight. Why isn’t Rainey doing anything about this? I’ve talked to Deven the dance instructor and Brandon the director…but nothing. This has been going on for MONTHS now! So, I filed a police report and I’m looking into filing charges against Rainey for child endangerment and such. CHILDREN’S well being should be your FIRST priority! NOT MONEY!!

We love Rainey! My kids have been going there for after care for going on 5 years and the program has improved every year. Most after care programs are basically daycare, not at Rainey! The older kids choose their program and are learning an art during their time there. The teachers are all helpful and kind. I'm so impressed with what my kids create while at Rainey. They look forward to going there after school and we're so grateful for an affordable,.high quality program!

I absolutely love this place and so does my daughter! Safety is ensured, my daughter is assisted and entertained in a healthy way. Most places just babysit, but Rainey is an example of that part of the village that contributes in growing your child to be open minded and well rounded. My sister has also been apart of Rainey for 5+ years and we’ve had no complaints since she was a younger child.
