5 stars, not enough! This place deserves 10 stars. Finding a daycare is not easy. Well, actually…read morewith all the daycare centers literally every you turn, you would think that would be the case. However, finding a center which has been around for a while with low staff turn over is almost impossible. Now try finding a center where the staff has stuck around for 20 years. Unheard of right? Ok now try finding a center with those 3 criteria plus each staff member is warm hearted, and loving and patient and loves children. That is the sunshine house ran by Miss. Regina. My son attended when he was 2 till he turned 3. I am so thankful that we got to experience this daycare and all the wonderful staff members. The center is busy but never chaotic. All the kids are always in a state of ease because the teachers are ALWAYS at ease. My son started off in Miss. Jocelyn's class. She is warm and experienced and loves kids and the kids love her! This was not daycare, it was more like my son's second home. My son would tell me daily as soon as we got home "I wanna go school. I wanna see Miss. Jocelyn." It made my heart soar to know he loved his school and teacher. Shout out to Miss. Shelly who keeps the kids fed. Breakfast always smelled delicious when I dropped him off in the morning. And Miss. Stacy for being an early riser in order to care for the 6:30 drop offs. And Miss. Nita for encouraging my baby to be independent. Everytime I picked him up and his shorts were on backwards or his shoes were on the wrong foot, I knew he was encouraged to dress homself. Special thank you to the director Miss. Regina, who accommodated us in so many ways and did so with a warm smile and kind words . And a very special thank you to Miss. Jocelyn, who is grandma to every little boy and girl in this amazing center. We will miss you dearly .

I searched all over the City to find a child care for my daughter. I looked at over 20 centers and…read morenone of them had what I was looking for. Small class sizes, professional teachers, educated and a home-like environment. I came across Brilliant Star and thoroughly researched the center and Director. When I called the teacher that answered was so friendly, I went to visit the same day. The center was very clean and smelled fresh (very important!!!). So far, so good! One last thing...Ms. Felicia is the best, not only did she make my daughter comfortable in her new environment. She helped me to feel okay about leaving her there and knowing she will take good care of her. I am so protective over my only daughter and I get nothing but the BEST for her.

I would highly recommend this facility!

We stumbled onto this daycare when we relocated to Georgia, and it was the best experience you…read morecould ask for. They are not babysitters, but rather credentialed childcare providers that are governed by state standards--but far exceed those standards. They are honest, clean, and great people. Ms LaTrenia and Mrs. Willis treated my child with the care they would give to their own, and I was able to work with a clear head knowing my child was safe. Children have a schedule there and curriculum. Policies are articulated upon enrollment, and they adhere to them. Children get home made meals and plenty of activities to stimulate their growing minds. Truly they provide love and learning. Aptly named!

I say all that to say, every terrible piece of childhood lore I have has taken place at Children's Academy. The teachers at the time showed very little regard for the wellbeing of the kids. As a matter of fact (this is just one instance) a kid tried to drown me on a field trip and the teachers unanimously decided I was lying. A kid showed me his nether region--they told me I was lying. I told them they didn't give me any orange slices during snack time when everybody else had them--they said I was lying. If I ever see Ms. Kim or Ms. Tan there will be problems. I mean on the bright side, I took a picture with a pony...although that's when we found out I was allergic but whatever the pic was cute I guess.

I love this daycare. They take such great care of my little one. Lauren runs the center and she's…read morealways on site, kind, and helpful. The kids all seem to be engaged throughout the day with different activities. Each age group has their own outdoor area. They have themed weeks regularly, which is fun for everyone. The staff are all friendly and professional. Also, they don't follow the school schedules so they are open almost every day with the exception of federal holidays. I really like that there is flexibility in drop off times instead of a 30-minute or 1 hour window. I plan on keeping my little here until he ages out. Highly recommend!

I would recommend AIN to anyone- it was an experience I know my son will reap the benefits from in the future as we continue to foster his language skills in the years to come.

My daughter has learned so much while she has been at this school and she is so confident. This school is expensive, but there is a sibling discount. You definitely get what you pay for with daycare and my peace of mind that my children are in good hands is well worth the cost.

This is our first year at Tree of Life, and we truly believe it is a "diamond in the rough." Not…read moreonly is the school more affordable than most early childcare providers (and certainly less costly than any other Montessori programs in the area which are known to be quite expensive), but the quality of education is top notch. Prior to enrolling here, our son attended a language immersion school. The first year, he had an amazing teacher and made great progress socially and academically. The next two years, however, he began to regress due to high teacher turnover, inconsistent instruction, and a 13:1 student-teacher ratio that wasn't conducive to much individualized attention. The 6:1 class size at Tree of Life has allowed my son to get lots of 1:1 time with his teacher. In addition, the mixed-age classroom, which is a staple of Montessori education, has provided my son with the chance to learn from older students. Moreover, the student-led, choice-based instructional approach, which is also a key feature in Montessori classrooms, has provided my son with ample opportunity to explore his interests while developing independence, confidence, fine motor skills, and intellectual curiosity. A mathematician and Montessori certified educator, Marla understands the stages of child development, and the value of high rigor and hands-on kinesthetic learning. Her classroom management style is firm but fair, and her guidance has informed some of the ways my wife and I support our son at home. Marla has a genuine appreciation for multi-cultural education. She regularly teaches about other cultural traditions like Holi, Kwanzaa, and the Chinese New Year, and invites special guests (including parents) to enrich the classroom experience by sharing their unique talents and traditions. Marla sends an update (both written and via FB group) on what was taught each week and what is forthcoming, is very responsive to email and text messages, and takes multiple measures to ensure her classroom is clean and safe (i.e., locked door, classroom cameras, optional masking, temperature checks, etc.) If an affordable Montessori education, in a small, in-home setting, with a highly skilled and caring teacher is an ideal learning environment for your child; and if an 8:30-4pm pickup works with your schedule, I'd HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tree of Life Montessori. It's a wonderful place!

I picked this school mainly because it was so close to my work, but ended up loving the school. Marla is very serious about teaching, very responsible, and dependable and I can feel very comfortable leaving my daughter every morning. She has only up to 6 kids in her classroom and each child gets plenty of her attention. Only thing I did not like much about was the long nap time...she had a difficult time sleeping at night. A few years after we moved out of Atlanta, we visited the school because I had a conference. She welcomed my daughter for the week that I was staying in Atlanta and she loved being back in the school. The school has such a welcoming, warm environment and this school is my gold standard for preschools.
