What Parents Say
THE CHILDREN'S ACADEMY & CHILDCARE CENTER receives mixed reviews with strong polarization. Positive reviewers praise communication, teaching quality, and child development, while negative reviewers express frustration with nutritional guidelines, drop-off procedures, staff interactions, and perceived overreach into parenting decisions.
I would choose zero stars if possible. First I will say this place is only open because it’s affordable compared to everywhere else. I would only use this place as a last option. They have all kinds of rules. Like the ones in the previous reviews. When I drop off my child. He has to be on a certain side of the car and must be unbuckled and ready to jump out of the car. You cannot drop off your child by walking them up to the front of the school. You need special permission to walk your child to the front door. You have to leave your child’s water bottle there. You leave their backpack there all week. His pumpkin seeds got sent home because I guess those are not allowed at school. They told me no peanuts and pumpkins seeds are not peanuts. My child said he doesn’t like this school because Ms Judey yells a lot. I really wish I made enough to send my child to a proper pre-school. He used to go to Primrose but that got too expensive. The kicker is it’s only been two weeks and we are ready to leave. Is everyone in the same boat that sends their kids here? No other choice?
This is my daughter’s second year here. They are very communicative while keeping the parents up to date with what the children are learning and doing in class. They have very helpful parent classes. My daughter always leaves the day happy telling me everything she learned that day. I’m very thankful for this preschool.
What a wonderful facility and wonderful staff. They do such an amazing job with teaching each child.
Reading the short note sent home with the child who one day brought Oreo cookies revealed a surprising lack of nutritional knowledge: [1] Potatoes are full of carbohydrates. The last thing that should be recommended to pair with potatoes would be bread, which is also high in carbohydrates, even the best whole grain breads. [2] Peanut butter is an excellent snack. It has as much protein as it has carbohydrates, so it should be encouraged as a snack. It should NOT be on the "bad" list
My kids have attended here a little over 2 years and I can truly say my kids are way over achieving what kids their age are normally. I’m super happy with everything. I love the class sizes! The food is completely good variety and always healthy. I can totally say these reviews about that situations years back doesn’t give this school the credit they actually deserve!
