**UPDATE REVIEW AS OF 07/24/2018**
If it wasn’t for Ms.Shannon I would have pulled my son sooner, but I ended up taking my son out not so much for the teachers but more so the front desk , I have discuss this from the time I started my son that I have a payment schedule that was a bit different and from I started it was an agreement. Both director and assistant director have specified that it wont happen again and sadly it always does,I hate to be the one to complain but I loved my son’s teacher Ms.Shannon is an amazing teacher and cares about her families and her children in her care, but to the lack of the management I just feel like they have no consideration and I truly am sorry to go but just I’m not happy of how it hasn’t changed I would like to say a special thank you for Ms.Cassandra to try to help me and I know and understand its not genuinely her fault but its upsetting that its happens repeatedly.

My son started in July and we were very happy when we toured and we were more happy of how the management team was towards the families and even more so the staff was so inviting and welcoming. Fast forward to to the past two months where my son was transitioned to Preschool A Ms.Shannon is a heaven sent who knows what she is doing and is a great teacher!! But I have noticed lately that there are new faces each and every other week and some are unpleasant when speaking to the children, my son seems not to have the same enthusiasm as he did before which makes me sad and that management has done a big change without any notice to the parents. I did receive an email when the director left (which was an amazing director) but this morning I noticed that the usual faces that we expect to greet us in the morning are no longer there, my son looks forward to seeing those familiar faces, I just find it unprofessional that they won’t explain what is going on with the center and as a parent i would like to know whats going on with my child’s school…I love the staff that are still there and my son is happy when he is around them and i normally do not complain but this morning I was bit thrown off and on edge on how the center is slowly changing without notice to the parents and seems more hush hush on what’s going on.

My two boys been going to this center for a year now. They havent been the great providers for the kids and other parents could agreed more. Its shameful how we expect to put out kids here and be treated good and not the bare minimum. They dont often own up to their mistake’s and often blame children for the cause. Thr director mrs debbie and i have gotten into an argument and called my child some unsettling names saying he isnt thr victim. Well yes my child is thr victim because you failed to provide wrll ttained teachers that doesnt put hands on children and allowing other kids bullying my child and yelled at him bc he cant do verbally speak yet so they blame him knowing he cant not defend himself. This center is very unprofessional. They have violated by not reporting any suspicious child abuse to licensing and how come parents arent aware of these violations? Im just fed up honestly and to give dirty water and saying because we dont take it home and if its stayed here over night how come your not cleaning it. How come your not changing students how come any of the issues are being solve but blaming children is crazy to me.. it shouldnt be that hard but damn shameful. These are kids they spend nearly 7 hours MOSTA OF THE TEACHING WILL BE AT THR CENTER… and it seems like this place needs to be shut down and take a course of how to run a proper daycare. Every time i call they make it seems like im nagging about small things.. but truly its big things that needs to be solve… crazy do not enroll your child in here. Their out many other places but this place isnt the one. They are so many other things but… i really hope you hire teachers that dont YELLED, or GRAB kids.

My kids absolutely love coming here! They always get excited to see Ms. Nikki and Ms. Laura and Ms. Mary (who is the director at the school). Every morning, myself and my kids are greeted with smiles and the same goes for pickup, as well. I’ve noticed a drastic improvement with my daughter’s reading since she started attending CoA. She surprises me all the time when she points out words that she sees in passing. Ms. Susie has done a great job with teaching her. The communication here is great. The teachers and director are diligent with keeping me informed either in person, with emails or through the Tadpoles app. My son has a lactose intolerance condition and his teachers have been wonderful with keeping up with that. I feel safe sending my children to this daycare. The staff take great care of them and always leave them with smiles and excitement for the next day. I definitely recommend anyone with children to give CoA a try!
