I can't believe this place hasn't been reviewed yet!!! It's nestled in Knightdale, not too far from…read more540 and downtown Knightdale. We searched high AND low, visiting several local child care centers only to be disappointed in what was available in Knightdale, until we walked into Cathy Lee's. This place, owners and it's caregivers are amazing. We had our child in their care from 7months old to the start of Kindergarten and she learned so much while she was there. They are a family business and truly care about the children. Any issue I ever had was dealt with swiftly and with respect for us and our child's best interests. I can't say enough about how great this center is!!! Occasionally we still call them to help us with child care now that she is older and has Teacher Work Days when she is out of school. They have track out facilities across the street! This place is GREAT!!!!

My son had a half dollar size bruise. This is what Heidi McCaskey, the Director at Lionsgate Child…read moreDevelopment Center, and Glenda Combs (Regional Director for Apple Tree Academies) allow to happen in their care. This is the third time he has been bit by the SAME, KNOWN, biter. He has bitten multiple children, on multiple occasions, over a lengthy period of time. His own teachers call him "the piranha". But yet, because I was upset, and thought they weren't doing enough to protect the children from him, was told "it's not a good fit". We've been there for over a year, and I would challenge them to produce one teacher in that facility that doesn't enjoy my son. But I have heard all kinds of negative comments about the other one. And because he has a difficult home situation, he gets a pass. I'm so heartbroken that my son is being punished. I have even swallowed every bit of pride and practically begged to stay. But "it's not a good fit" because I'm the squeaky wheel. RE: Jamie L's review There is not anything else to the story. The reason I wanted to stay was because I have an anxiety problem and don't deal well with change. The thought of having to introduce my son to new teachers the week before I had to go out of town for work was overwhelming to me, and I had a moment of weakness thinking that staying at Lionsgate would have been the better choice. I am SOOO glad that I didn't get the opportunity to follow through with that. My son has thrived in his new school, and has not been bitten even one time. We are incredibly happy where we are at, and still maintain a relationship with some of the teachers from Lionsgate so that my son can still have them in his life. I NEVER had a problem with the teachers; my problem was always and only with the lack of action by Heidi McCaskey and Glenda McCombs.

Where to begin with the review??…read more I had the pleasure of bringing my two kids here at an early age. After meeting the assistant director (now director, Heidi McCaskey) I knew I was in the right place. Not only was she super friendly, the teachers seemed great during my walk through! I pulled my kids out of another daycare for issues that they couldn't handle and put them here at lionsgate! Best decision of mine and my kids life. I have never had any issues with the staff and have been there for 5 years. As for the last review, why would you beg to come back if you hate this place?? Seems a little silly you hate the place and yet beg to stay, Just my opinion!! There is obviously more to this situation that is untold. I think it is unfortunate that Heidi is made out to be this terrible person when she has been nothing but awesome to our family. Maybe she cares more about the children and tries to find solutions rather than just kicking them out.

The school itself seems safe and it is small so your kids get a lot of attention…read more it's not a school for minorities. I was told by the teacher not to expect the kids to attend my child's birthday party and conversely she was never invited to one. I was not added to group communications. We know that these attitudes tend to be fostered by the their environment which is created by those in charge. It does seem that the woman in charge would share in this sentiment. As an example, the 'principal' took it upon herself to greet me at the door to say that my child could not bring her Yeti lunch bag. Apparently, in the course of running the school, my child's snackpack bothered her. As a religious institution, I don't THINK they get any government funding, because of course, the government can't fund any institutions that advocate discrimination based on suspect classes. As a religious organization, it does have a 501(c)(3) status, however and that is granted by the governmeny so that's something to think about, however.
