    It is incredibly concerning to see this Academy remove a 2 year old from the school for…read morebiting-something that is widely recognized as developmentally normal behavior at that age. Toddlers are still learning how to communicate, regulate emotions, and interact with others. Biting, while not ideal, is a common phase that one would think that trained childcare professionals/ teachers should be prepared to handle with appropriate strategies, patience and guidance. This situation raises serious questions about the staffs training and their ability to manage age-appropriate behaviors. A quality daycare/Academy should have clear polices in place not only to address behaviors like biting, but also to support both the child exhibiting the behavior and the children affected by it. Simply removing the child suggests a lack of resources, understanding, or the willingness to work through typical development challenges. The easy solution is to call the parents to pick up their child. Parents should feel confident that their childcare provider is equipped to create a safe, supportive environment for all children, if your child is bitten, it is absolutely valid to ask what measures are being taken to prevent incidents and teach appropriate behavior. Likewise, if a daycare/school's response to normal toddler behavior is exclusion rather than education and intervention that's something every parent should take seriously.

    Our son was one of the first children at this location when it opened. In those first few years we…read moreabsolutely loved the tight knit community and attention to detail the staff and directors offered. However as we now enter our child's third year at the school with numerous staff and leadership turnover we utilize this school more out of convenience than personal choice. There have been several instances of miscommunication from leadership with our family. Even more concerning, is the notable leadership turnover in such a short period of time. Unfortunately there is not a standard practice in place for routine class transitions which allow children of the same age an equal opportunity to access all learning tools which the school prides itself on. It's extremely disappointing to see such obvious stagnation and regression in our child's classroom engagement and learning for what appears to be the sake of appeasing incoming families on waitlists or special circumstances. I do hope moving forward the school is able to put in place more concrete class groupings so that all children are afforded an equal opportunity to engage and excel in their pivotal early learning years with the developmentally appropriate materials and tools the school has to offer.

    This school is the worst place to put a child that is autistic. My son is on the spectrum which…read morecomes with ADHD and meltdowns and aggression. That is normal for kids on the spectrum. The aggression stems from them not knowing how to use their words. He had behavioral therapists there with him everyday and he was only at this school for four days before they kicked out a special needs child! A normal non special needs child takes a week to transition to a new place....a child on the spectrum takes at least two weeks maybe three. The owner did not allow that. The teachers have no training on how to handle and teach a child on the spectrum at all. The owner also LIED and said the behavioral therapists sat and let my son hit and kick the teacher and they ignored it. TOTAL LIES!! I have the proof from the notes that they have to put in every week from the sessions. So the owner lied to me, the teacher lied also. I called the ADA and was told what they did violated the ADA act and to file a complaint. I have filed a complaint with the ADA. This place needs to be shut down for good. They are horrible. They also wanna charge almost $1200 a month you have to pay on the 1st of every month and they don't provide lunch, you have to provide lunch for your child and they wanna charge that much. Basically a daycare for rich snobby people!

    Ms. Ledden, Ms. Dixon, and Ms. Yancey are my son's teachers at Primrose and we love them. They're…read moreso thoughtful, they're very communicative with us as parents, and are very loving. They're always sharing news with us about my son's behavior or his needs (both opportunities and praises! which we appreciate). My son basically jumps out of my arms into Ms. Dixon's arms every morning, which makes me feel so good dropping him off every day knowing he looks forward to who he's spending his days with, and confirms to me he's in a loving and safe environment that he enjoys. Thank you Ms. Ledden, Ms. Dixon, and Ms. Yancey for your love and support of our son in the Toddler 2 classroom!

    If I could leave 0 stars I would. My son at the ripe age of…read more2 years old and never having been in school before was expelled on his 3rd day of school for being able to open doors and was classified as a "flight risk". First of all, WHY was my son able to get out if he's being supervised. Secondly, why would you say you can't expect your teachers to run after a student when they're there for a reason. He's 2. He shouldn't be expected to act like a robot. He does not have adhd or anything of the sort to classify him as an "overly difficult" child. Another issue is, nobody could tell us specifics of why he was considered a flight risk other than opening the classroom door. First we were told y'all would give him 2 weeks to adjust to being in school then not even 8 hours later we were told by the end of the school week then the very next day it was, he's expelled. WILD behavior. Not to mention on his last day when I arrived to pick him up, he was being "disciplined" in the front office and I was never called or told he was up front. I lived 5 mins away and would have came to get him immediately instead of yall holding him in the front office. Again. He's TWO!! As a previous preschool teacher and someone who has talked with numerous other preschool teachers AND a child psychiatrist, we are ALL disgusted by the behavior and treatment towards my two year old child.

Once I started receiving ELC my wonderful son all of a sudden was "disruptive, hard to control, and has ADHD" as per staff. He is only 3yrs old! He was suspended twice in a week, (I didn't know 3yr olds could be suspended) because he "leaned back in his chair". I knew I should of followed my gut and pulled him out of there immediately when they were reported to DCF by a parent who saw one of their staff grab my son aggressively. I have the report from DCF. I wasn't called by the school when this incident occurred but they called me twice in one day because he knocked toys on the floor? Its a shame these folks are in it for the money. His teacher was great but they overwhelmed her with 27-30 3yr olds in a class by herself.

She was having accidents at daycare and I initially thought this was because of the transition to a new facility. We reverted back to putting her in pull-ups. Then we found that her pull-ups would be saturated when we picked her up and she would be begging to go to the bathroom. She was not having "accidents"... she was experiencing neglect. Oh yeah... and they kept "losing" her extra clothes. We have since pulled her from T's Learning Center and will never be returning.
