The majority of parents praise the staff's professionalism, care, and educational activities, highlighting daily communication apps and diverse programming. However, several parents report serious allegations including neglect, abuse, unprofessional conduct, and financial impropriety.
My experience at Tuckaway Variana has been very pleasant all of the teachers and staff speak, they are very family oriented and very professional. I can honestly say I have never felt that my children were in great care besides when they are with me :) and another thing that I love is that they have a app that is in each room the teachers Keep track on what your child is doing throughout the day. You can monitor how many times they use the restroom, what they eat how much they ate, what they did throughout the day and etc. but I love Tuckaway, THANK YOU GUYS!!! 🫶🏽❤️✨
Tuckaway Varina is the best daycare/school. I have a 4 year old great-grandson that attends there. The staff is kind, happy and well experienced. They are open to suggestions and if you have a problem they listen and resolve the issue immediately. My grandson is loved unconditionally even when he has a bad day. He's learning new things everyday. The grounds are well taken care of along with the inside of the building. It's a very busy place with lots of activities for the kids. I can't say enough great things about Tuckaway Varina! I 100% recommend this facility.
My son has been full-time at Tuckaway since Jan 2019. It’s clear that his teachers love him as if he was their own. He has flourished both socially and academically since he started there. There is a perfect balance of open play, learning and reading. The student population is diverse, both ethnically and economically (which was very important to us when selecting a pre-school.) We love being able to pay online and we get daily updates on what the kids are learning. We are sending our newborn baby there once he is old enough. So happy to be part of this family and we plan to send our kids to Tuckaway until 1st grade.
editing my review : please do not send your child to this “school,” several reports of neglect and straight up abuse first, my son was denied lunch as a form of punishment, next the teacher was incessantly yelling at his preschool class this is where i should’ve drawn the line yet NEXT i picked my little one up, he had blue lips because they laid him down for a nap to sleep in his swim clothes finally, my son reported to me that his male teacher laid hands on him. we will not be going back and 10/10 do not recommend
Very Unprofessional, only accept children who Get Assistance from Parents who get help from DSS quickly , anyone who is paying out of pocket it’s a waiting list! This daycare Get the help from DSS and only feed your child animal crackers/cheese/water, no real snacks for the children, don’t help the children with homework after school. They will over charge you even if DSS pay full amount which is a scam. If you start asking questions about your account and balances, they will try to get rid of your child! Always hiring ages 15-17 years of age, to which those babies can’t understand their worth and what they really do behind them computers (underpay). They all about GREED OF MONEY. DEFINITELY NOT A GOOD COMPANY FOR YOUR CHILD TO ATTEND NOR WORKING THERE. My child seen 5/6 teaches in the last 2 years. The DIRECTORS, HEAD STAFF ARE ALL FAMILY AND THEY ARE NOT HELPING YOUR CHILD, they HELPING THEIR POCKETS. I CAN ONLY SPEAK FOR TUCKAWAY VARINA.
