The Growing Years in Clayton receives consistently high praise from parents who appreciate the caring, engaged staff and quality educational activities. Parents highlight excellent communication through daily updates and photos, a clean facility, and teachers who genuinely invest in each child's development and well-being.
This is an awesome facility! My daughter has been attending here for over a year now, she loves her teachers, more importantly her teachers love her. They are engaged with the children. and they are learning so much, not just playing all day. My child can count to twenty in Spanish... she is 2. They really demonstrate their love of the children and helping them grow. Allow me to give you an example of how much they care and pay attention to your child and their well being (and a mothers sanity). My husband brings our daughter to school to school in the mornings and he forgot it was picture day. Our child was wearing an outfit that was made to play and get dirty in, not take pictures in (she was dressed in total tom boy attire). When I learned he had forgot it was picture day, I was so disappointed, when I went to pick her up and was talking to the staff about the situation, her teacher smiled at me and handed me her picture order form. I saw my baby in an adorable dress with a bow in her hair (her expression was like a prison mug shot, but hey she looked great), the fact that they did not let my little princess go out like that on picture day, priceless. I know you have a lot of choices where to send your child, however, I can assure you you won't find a more caring, loving, and invested group of people to care for your kiddo.
My daughter absolutely loves this school, teachers and staff. She runs and hugs her teachers Ms. Destinee and Ms. Ashley every morning. I like how they keep me informed throughout the day. They have music time on Mondays and have art projects almost every day. I love that they send me pictures of these activities and help aid with potty training. Great daycare!
TGY has been amazing! We switched from a nearby center almost a year and a half ago and we absolutely love it! They provide the structure and consistency our kids need to thrive. Our kids love their teachers and I know that they are in the best hands when we are at work! High recommend!
We love the communication with the teachers and directors. We love getting updates throughout the day and seeing photos. While the transition to a facility has been challenging for my 2.5 year old, everyday has been getting easier for him and I know he is well taken care of and learning a lot in a clean center.
At first this center was very nice and welcoming to our family and child. Over time, we started receiving messages saying our toddler was having behavior issues, which is not his personality. They set up a “child success plan” in an effort to eventually kick him out the door. They did not put a genuine effort towards our child’s development. And they made it seem as if he was the only child having issues. I do not recommend this child care center.
