Taye, who runs the day care is the WORST person to trust to care for your child(ren). She started…read moreoff great and eventually started showing Her true colors. She talks about her staff negatively and talks about other parents negatively. She divulges too much of her personal life. 1) she closed her daycare for a week due to a DV situation with her husband and left all families without care, no notice (which is understandable). However this is allegedly due to him punching her on the face and her trying to run him over with her car (according to her) 2) she will cancel and change dates and pricing and hours with NO NOTICE. I utilized her for weekend care and she would cancel care the very day before for miscellaneous reasons, causing me to miss work. 3) she tried to cancel my care with no notice because she could not send me a registration code that she uses for her Daycare's app. She tried to blame me and gaslight me and claim I was taking things personally. 4) she steals money. As a result of the app fiasco which I assumed was resolved after I miraculously received the registration link. I was able to take my daughter in for one day. Ultimately I cancelled care and have not been refunded money for the other two days I did not use. Since then I have messaged Taye on every number I have for her and she chooses to act unprofessional in every sense and ignore me. Lastly, when I went to pick up my daughter nobody was home and my child was gone. No answers from staff or Taye. So this means that while she lies and makes a huge fuss about signing in/out for the app, having onsite cameras, your child may be transported to another location without you knowing. I really worked with her because her rate is cheap but she's a nightmare, highly unreliable and very unprofessional and uncaring. South Mountain childcare is horrible and I do not recommend them.

The Director/Owners are extremely hands on and personally helpful as well. They really care about their kiddos! I would highly recommend this place.

I worked as lead pre-K teacher I helped contribute to getting them a five star school. They're very good with their curriculum and books which I loved and enjoyed so much because we always had fresh new curriculum, books and toys for the children. However, the Director called out all the time sick, we did not have a Director there a lot of the time and then trying to promote a business made it very difficult. There was no one there to support us because we were in class teaching. The management was not very supportive and they would run out of supplies and food a lot. The teachers are very loving and care a lot about the children but we just needed someone in there that's going to be a professional Director that advertises well for them and shows up on a daily basis. The pay is also very low and they don't give their hard-working teachers the credit that they deserve.

I have no worries when I leave my 5 year old that she is actively learning. She has been very well cared for while at Maxwell. I've enjoyed this program and just wanted to give them the kudos they deserve.

Also, I would have to advise the director several times of a soiled diaper at pick up, would have to forced them to change him before leaving the building. Once he moved up to the pre-ones room I picked him up with blood from his mouth and on his shirt , after falling and no one called me. When I arrived to pick him up I rushed him to the doctors to be examined, and he had boasted lip and chipped teeth from the fall. The teacher swore nothing happened and blamed it on teething . I called the police and disenrolled my son. I also informed the state because of their negligence, and no documentation of the incident and no first aid provided to my baby. There are no valuable teachers that enjoy working here. The quality of care is the same as its surrounding neighborhood, with is bad.

Also this academy is education based, not like your typical preschool where kids just play and go a couple days a week. They pride themselves on providing value to children and their parents.

My nephew started here…read morewhen he was just 1 year old, and now at 4 years old, he has grown and learned so much because of the amazing care he's received. Each classroom he moved into had wonderful teachers who made every transition smooth and comfortable for him. The teachers always communicated well with our family and were great about collaborating with us to make sure he had the best experience possible. The administration has also been amazing. During my nephew's adoption journey, they were incredibly supportive and made him feel welcomed and truly like part of a family. That kind of love and care means more than words can explain. They have done such a great job preparing him for kindergarten, and honestly... he's not ready to let the center go (lol). Knowing he was in a place where he was loved, cared for, and safe brought our family so much peace and relief. Strong Foundations has truly left a lasting mark on our lives and our hearts. We are so grateful for everything they have done for our nephew, and I will always recommend this center to other families.

My son had special needs, behavioral and a speech delay and during this time his Dad and I were going through a rough Ron's in family court. I am appalled by the negative reviews. They are absolute garbage. Simply untrue to say the least. I have met the owner, and every single teacher and supervisor here. They are some of the most loving, caring, and dedicated individuals I had up to that point met at any other day care or preschool. And my son went to Childtime on bell rd, which was good. He attended tutor time on bell rd, which was disgusting and horrible and even more so the director there was trashy and had an agenda. But kids prep academy had small groups, next level care/attention, and extremely invested, loving, and more importantly QUALIFIED individuals organizing and running the place. And my son was happy, treated fairly, and in his words, he was understood. Which meant everything to our family, especially during the difficult time it was. The value here is one which can't be sized simply by a dollar amount. I am a real life testimony. And I deeply regret not writing this and giving them the credit they deserved a long time ago. Please, by all means feel free to reach out to me directly using this app messages if you would like to know more. I can't say enough wonderful things about this exceptional childcare.
