I have been sending my kids to Madalyn's since my daughter was 7 weeks old. She is going to be 3 in…read more2 months. My daughter loves Madalyn's. I kept her home due to the pandemic for a few months but she was bored and it was challenging working from home and give her the attention she deserves so she came back recently. This kid comes home telling me she loves her friends & her teacher daily. She comes home with artwork every week. I also get photos in the app from the school on a daily of her doing her arts & crafts. We also get updates when they eat, are changed & notified of nap times. I also sent my older children to the summer program and they had a blast. They were 12, 6 & 5 at the time. Field trips were always great! My kids still ask to come with me to say hi to teachers & are happy to see everyone. Mrs. J runs a tight ship & has made some very wonderful updates as the years have passed. As a single mother that is trying to further her career, I feel comfortable being able to leave my kids in good hands while I do so. I appreciate Mrs. J & her staff more then they know & would recommend people try it out before they make their minds up.

However they did not prepare my child for the transition into kindergarten. My son struggled immensely when he began elementary school, not because he wasn't smart, but due to the lack of structure and comprehensive curriculum. The teacher assistants were not well equipped with tools during aftercare to manage the classrooms. If you are looking for a preschool that will prepare your child for kindergarten, I would suggest looking at other options. If you are just looking for a daycare, I would recommend this place.

My children have been at The Goddard School Austell since September 2018 and I can't imagine taking…read morethem anywhere else. After moving to this part of Atlanta recently, I was amazed at the cost/waitlist/class size of many daycares in the area. I "interviewed" several places and was starting to question whether or not I was going to find a place that I felt comfortable taking my kids to everyday. The Goddard School Austell is the same place my niece and nephew went 8 years ago and without question is the best! Mrs. Lauren was immediately warm and welcoming inviting us in to see this "family feel" preschool. She is always open for conversation, empathetic, real, transparent and a parent herself. She employs a staff that also models those qualities. If we have ever had a concern about our children (potty training, bottle weaning, tantrums etc)... they are all there to assist, work with us and ultimately foster love, patience, knowledge and kindness in our babies! They have a curriculum that is followed and emailed monthly. Daily reports are sent out over a phone app making it easy to check in on the kids each day. Healthy breakfasts and catered (healthy) lunches are provided each day, along with snacks in between. They have nice playgrounds that the kids love playing on when it is nice outside and a large open gym to run around in when it is raining or too cold to be outside, with a built in rock climbing wall, what?! Along with the day-to-day activities, they are always doing special things around the holidays for the kids/parents (Christmas program, Easter egg hunt, Valentines, etc). I honestly could go on and on about all the ways The Goddard School Austell is a phenomenal daycare... but most importantly, I don't have to question what type of care my little ones are getting. I know in my absence they are being loved, nurtured, comforted and allowed to grow, learn and explore in a warm and caring environment...every day. I will not take them anywhere else and will be very sad when they have to leave. Thank you all at Goddard Austell!

Our child attended this location for a few months. He enjoyed his classmates, and there were…read moreseveral things we liked about the school. One day, I saw a teacher spray water toward my child's face with a spray bottle. I understood that spray bottles may have been used outside to help cool children off in the summer, but what I saw concerned me enough that I asked administration for a meeting to better understand the policy and whether spray bottles were ever used for anything other than cooling off. When I spoke with Lauren, I did not feel my concern was received well. The conversation focused more on my wording and whether I was accusing the school of abuse than on giving me clarity about what I had seen. I left the conversation feeling that my concern as a parent had been met defensively rather than constructively. Because of that interaction, we withdrew our child that day. I had a positive impression of some parts of Goddard overall, but based on my experience with this specific location, I would not personally recommend it.
