We have been sending our kids to Nanny's for over 5 years now and it is hard to think of another…read morechildcare facility in Knoxville that I would Trust more than Nanny's. Most of the staff at Nanny's have worked there for over 5 years and some have made it their career. What is really special is the facility as well as the staff. With their very own cafeteria it teaches children to line up and prepares them for how they will have to behave when it is time for them to go to school. They have plenty of extracurricular activities to keep the children busy and even offer swim lessons across the road at the Ft. Sanders gym complex. This was great for us since we didn't really know where to send our boys for swim lessons. The teachers go with the children so we know they are safe and they get to learn valuable things like swimming, soccer, gymnastics, music, and ballet. They were also rated #1 for daycare facilities in Knoxville. How great is that. So if you are thinking of where to go for daycare and you have not made up your mind or you are just starting the journey, go take a tour of the facility. You will not be disappointed.

This school is over all pretty awesome. I have two daughters that have attended here for about 3…read moreyears now. I've never had any issues with the teachers or parents aside from the occasional fight or two that all kids get in as they grow up. Security here is A1 as well. You have to pass Biometrics and then a separate door with a passcode on a keypad. They do pick up from about 5 or 6 schools around West Knoxville and my daughters happened to go to one of those so that is very convenient. They have a specifically labeled bus. They also have a pretty cool summer program for kindergarteners and above filled with field trips and educational items. It is conveniently located and off the street of Kingston Pike in the Farragut area so anyone in West Knoxville will be happy. I definitely recommend this to any parent looking for a place but I know they are rarely free and always filled up which I suppose is a good thing. Kids won't stop and neither will this staff. The head director is pretty involved and asks me what we are doing daily and I know you don't always get that from staff at a childcare location. Highly recommend

They told us we could have our son come in the fall with no specific date and I called and the director was always on a bus route or not in office with no call back. I called in spring no answer and now it is almost end of summer and I just want my money back. We did not get a spot nor would I send my kid to this facility. I have now spoke with the director twice this week but she keeps blowing me off saying she need to speak to admin or name isn't in there database and it's always "I'll call you tomorrow." They have probably spent my money and this is ridiculous!!

In that time, we…read morehad several issues with not receiving incident reports, teachers utilizing their cell phones for cocomelon with the toddlers and infrequent diaper changes. Our son regularly ended up with diaper rashes due to going ~4 hours between changes at 2 years old. We found no resolution to this issue and ended up pulling our child from care early due to the lack of trust we had in his care. We would not recommend this center to anyone. There do seem to be some good teachers there, but overall the staff seems sub-par.

My 4-year-old son has been in daycare here for about 3 years now and there's not much I can…read morecomplain about. The staff are incredibly friendly. I've had the good fortune of getting to know a couple of them personally and I have found them to be some of the most upstanding people I've met since I've moved to Knoxville. The facilities are clean, the kids have a structured routine of daily activities geared towards their specific age group (each age group is separated into their own rooms), and they get plenty of time to run around outside (or in the gym if it's cold/rainy). They offer a weekly Music 'n' Motion class you can sign your child up for and they often have parties for the kids to celebrate birthdays or the holidays. They also recently participated in the Fantasy of Trees parade down at the convention center. My only complaint is that the daily reports communicating to the parent(s) what their child did and how they behaved is a little inconsistent. However, the teachers are always willing to talk to you personally about how your child is doing. All in all, I'm thankful to have found such a great place for my son to be while I work and go to school.
