I DO NOT recommend this daycare at all. My son was there from age 1 to 2.5 and the center is always short-staffed and chaotic. They are so short-staffed that teachers were constantly rotated between classrooms throughout the day, which disrupts consistency and stability for the children. The teachers always seemed stressed and unhappy, and there was no real structure or learning in the classroom. The children mostly ran around or watched TV. Basic educational activities like art, colors, ABCs, etc., were not being taught. The rugs in my son’s classroom were frequently dirty, which was concerning from a hygiene standpoint. There were also times when very young, inexperienced staff were responsible for caring for infants and toddlers, which was concerning and did not feel appropriate for the age group. The administration were often sitting in their office on their phones. Instead of stepping in to support the classroom when it was short-staffed, which leaves the teachers overwhelmed and the children without proper attention. The environment did not feel positive, nurturing, or organized, and I would NOT choose this daycare again. Also, be aware that some of the positive reviews appear to be written by current employees, so I would read those with caution.
My daughter had Mrs. Lola Holloway as her three year old teacher. Mrs Lola is one of the best teachers ever!!! She goes above and beyond for every child she cares for. My daughter learned so much in her room and I will forever be thankful for the the love and care Mrs Lola gave her. Anyone who has Mrs Lola as their child's teacher will be amazed at how much love and attention she gives each child. My daughter also had Toni Smith and Miranda Campbell as a two year old. They are amazing and show each child love and attention. They were wonderful with helping me potty train her. I would highly recommend them!!
I cannot express enough how grateful I am for Ms. Lola Holloway at Foundation Academy in the Ft. Valley location. She has been an incredible teacher to my kids, and they absolutely adore her! From the moment they started in her class, it was clear that she is not just a teacher but a truly caring and loving person who goes above and beyond for each child. Ms. Lola creates such a warm and welcoming environment where the children feel safe, valued, and excited to learn. Her dedication and passion for teaching shine through in everything she does, and it’s evident that she truly loves her students. It’s not just about getting through the day — she puts her heart into making each child’s experience meaningful and enjoyable. My kiddos have learned so much under her care, not just academically but also in their social and emotional development. She has a unique way of connecting with each child and making them feel special. I feel incredibly fortunate that my children had the opportunity to be in her class. If you're looking for a teacher who truly cares about your child’s well-being and growth, Ms. Lola is absolutely the one you want. She’s an extraordinary person and a blessing to all the families at Foundation Academy! Thank you, Ms. Lola, for all that you do!
Mrs. Lola’s Holloway is the absolutely BEST TEACHER hands down at Foundation Academy! She loves to see her children learn and grow in the classroom. My children have done well in school because of her. She is patient, kind and loving. I don’t know what I would have done without her. We LOVE MRS LOLA!!! 😘❤️📚🖍️✏️
We had 3 kids that went to Foundation Academy over an 8 year period. We love the facility and the faculty. All three of my girls were blessed to be in Mrs. Lola’s class at one point. It takes a special person to make a mother feel at ease about having to leave her child daily and Mrs. Lola is one of those people.
