I was highly recommended Kiddie Academy from a moms fb group so I scheduled a tour. My family and I…read moremoved here from out of town so we really had no idea what to expect. However, when we got there 15 minutes prior to our scheduled time the director was nowhere to be found and we were just sitting there. I finally asked the lady at the front desk when we could meet with the director and she told me she was not there, but still at her son's doctor appt. I totally understood that, however, she asked me to reschedule for later so of course, I said yes. I received confirmation to my phone and then another notification saying the staff was out due to a stomach bug or something like that. I understand. However, after that I expected to get a call from the director or the school to reschedule once again but that never happened. My intention in writing this is just for another mama to take my experience into consideration when looking for the perfect fit for their kiddos. It just seemed/s off. However, I went with my gut and found the school I was looking for AMEN!

This was by FAR the worst experience we've with a daycare. For reference, KA was our 3rd daycare so…read morefar (we recently moved to the area). Where to begin: 1. Prior to enrolling, our 2yr old was going through her 'biting' stages of toddlerhood. She had two incidents at her prior school with a long stint of no incidents after that before enrolling in KA. Once enrolled at KA, our 2yr old went on biting streak. Upon further investigation as to why this kept happening, I found out that A) the classroom was incredibly overcrowded - there was no way any amount of teachers could keep an eye on that amount of kids and B) everyday there was a new teacher in the classroom. The teacher churn was UNREAL. That tells me they don't pay their teachers jack squat and kids run the place so of course the teachers don't care. After awhile, they would start sending my 2yr old home after an incident. How the F am I supposed to pay for daycare if I also have to watch my child? I brought this up to management but they didn't care. Eventually our 2yr old was kicked out of KA. At her new school, she's had one incident of biting in 6 months. Her class has the same 2 teachers M-F and a much smaller class size. 2. KA will take any and every excuse to either close down or send your child home for the day, not just major holidays or incidents, not to mention the 2 weeks off around Christmas/New Years that you are EXPECTED to continue to pay for. Training day for teachers 2-3 times per year? Schools closed, kids stay home and you pay for it. Woke holiday? Schools closed, you pay for it. Mild storm expected? Schools closed, you pay for it. 3. This school is incredibly cheap and although the facilities are nice, good luck trying to get a refund or vacation time without escalating it past management to the owners. All in all, I would avoid unless its your only option.

Pretty much the best child care facility I have ever been in. My daughter has been going there for…read morethe last few years, except for a three month period where I mistakenly thought there was another place in town. Swiss Avenue Kinder Care is tops. They follow legitimate curriculum starting in even the youngest rooms. My daughter cannot wait to get to school most days, and the teachers all know her by name and know me too. Throughout the summer there are at least a dozen special events planned. Truly a class act, and I heartily recommend it.

Little Sunshine's Playhouse Hendersonville is, hands down, the best daycare around! From our very…read morefirst interaction, Heather and Willow were so welcoming, helpful, and kind. They made the enrollment process easy and immediately put us at ease. The teachers and staff are truly some of the best people you'll ever meet. It's obvious they genuinely love what they do, and they care for the children as if they were their own. One thing that really stands out is the food--they serve healthy, well-balanced, thoughtfully planned meals each week, which gives us such peace of mind. As a parent, one of my favorite things is the communication throughout the day. Receiving pictures, updates, and little glimpses into my child's day means more than I can put into words. Those updates are such a thoughtful touch and something I truly appreciate. Like many first-time parents, I had plenty of nerves about sending my child to daycare. But Little Sunshine's quickly erased those fears. We've always felt confident that our child is safe, loved, learning, and thriving every single day! Shout out to Miss Josie and Miss Kaitlyn who go above and beyond. I truly can't say enough good things about this daycare. If you're looking for a place where your child will be genuinely cared for, this is it. 10/10--I recommend Little Sunshine's Playhouse to every parent I know!

We have been with Little Sunshine's Playhouse of Hendersonville since they opened and are so happy…read morewith our decision to enroll our children here! Both kids are absolutely thriving in the warm, supportive environment at LSP. The school itself is beautiful, clean and modern. It's a nut-free facility, including peanuts. The director, Heather, and all of the staff are friendly and caring. Miss Elizabeth and Ms. Melissa are phenomenal helping to support our child's potty training efforts and encouraging her creativity. Ms. Allie and Ms. Lyssi are absolute cheerleaders for our little one's development and give us wonderfully detailed daily updates on his activities and accomplishments. LSP has a proprietary, user-friendly app for daily check in/check out, real-time updates (eating, diaper changes, etc) and sharing photos/videos. Seeing real-time updates helps parents follow their child's day and gives the opportunity to call or message with any questions or concerns. LSP a definitely a top tier childcare facility in this area. Tuition includes everything aside from diapers (food, baby wipes, even baby formula!). Linens for nap cots, cribs and even sleep sacks are provided and laundered daily. All meals and snacks, made in-house daily by their chef, are varied and healthy. Also included are extra curriculars! Every week our 3 year old has dance and karate classes. During the summer they had soccer lessons and water play days on the playground. They also have enrichment activities provided by their staff, like Spanish class with Ms. Josie and yoga with Mr. David. Our kiddo gets so excited for the extra curricular activities, which she likely wouldn't be able to participate in otherwise due to our work schedules. The thing that has impressed us the most at LSP is their understanding that all children develop at their own pace and they are willing to work with families on each child's timeline. For example, our baby wasn't ready to give up breastmilk at exactly 12 months, so his teachers worked with him to embrace eating solid foods during the day and gradually wean. LSP is also flexible with appointment schedules and accommodating drop offs even if they may coincide with nap time. LSP also does a wonderful job offering monthly special events to help include families, for example, Father's Day mini golf, Thanksgiving lunch, and a holiday singing program. They vary the times of these events (morning/lunch/end of day) to help accommodate parents' work schedules. I highly recommend LSP to anyone looking for high-quality childcare! Let them know Sonia H. sent you! :)

The entire staff has been nothing but welcoming, friendly, and supportive of him and our family. We had a not so pleasant experience with a daycare center in Smyrna where I would pick him up and it would be obvious he was not well cared for, diaper unchanged, dried snot on his face, etc., he would cry everyday I dropped him off. Little Harvard is a complete 180 from that standard of care, and I am so thankful, he walks right in and looks forward to attending each day. There is nowhere else I would want my son to go, 10/10 whole heartedly recommend Little Harvard for your childcare needs.

The staff and teachers truly make this place great! From the very first tour/walk through we felt welcomed and assured that not only were our kids going to be well cared for, but well educated and on track in their learnings (based on their ages). It is so helpful that they provide well balanced meals and snacks throughout the day- saving this working mom a lot of time. Each day we are greeted with such kind people at the front, and our kids love their teachers. We also love the community of families and how the school hosts different events and celebrations throughout the year. We highly recommend primrose and wish we could give more than 5 stars!
