My husband and I scheduled to do a tour last week. We were so excited because we heard great things…read moreabout this school through the reviews. We thought it would be a great fit for our 10-month-old son. From the moment we got there, the Director did not greet us very welcomingly. She seemed very rushed and anxious by having us there. It was a very awkward and uncomfortable tour. When we finished, we mentioned that we would like to get on the waitlist, as many daycares are stating that their availability is full. Her direct response was, "I would visit other daycares before making the decision or choice to enrolling at Goddard." I have never felt so rejected and disrespected of my time. This is not the way a first-time parent should feel about providing their child the best education/care. I honestly can say that this is an inclusion school, not diverse at all. Very disappointed!

Beware! The owner believes herself to be above the state laws for Pre-K programs!…read more Charges $165 per MONTH for lunch ($8 per day - do you spend that much on YOUR lunch? Can you say "profit center"? State guidelines are a MAX of $120 per month) Refuses to allow lunch to be provided by the parent for Pre-K programs, although state law says it is required to be allowed if any other class in school can bring food from home. Now she says that yes, you can bring lunch from home, but must STILL pay $80 per month, to NOT be provided any food! Yeah, profit center. She does not care at all about the laws of the state. She was asked about other options for low income families and lied to each and every person in Georgia Pre-k. State law says the state must approve any disenrollment, but Farah threw my son out today, while calling me names (possibly homophobic or maybe just because I am a young struggling veteran). What did I do? Explained the law to her that said she could not charge for lunch if the student was a "Category 1" student. She told me I still owed her money. That she could kick out my son because it is her school. If you ask for an accounting, don't think you will get something from a computer. No - handwritten scribbles. I have asked MULTIPLE times for a bill. Dont expect her organization to improve We have used other Goddard Schools - this one is horrible. The teachers here are amazing but the second you say anything about the ridiculous prices or the owner breaking the law *and yes, there is now an open investigation and this school may be on probation* she will kick you out and embarrass you. The owner does not care about your children. Only your wallet.

DO NOT RECOMMEND. The staff is extremely "petty," writing incident reports for toddler behaving,…read morewell, like a toddler. I had an outside person come in to observe who witnessed teachers humiliating my 3 year old (stopping him, calling attention to the entire class, and having him make a public apology) for a minor and accidental incident. Overall, they are very inauthentic, rude, and disrespectful. The owner is a Doctor who expects a child experiencing grief and loss to make strides of change in an environment that fosters hostility, which is a completely unreasonable and unrealistic request.

Highly Recommend!!! I have had two children in this school,…read morestarting over 8 years ago. My first child to attend PV is reading at a middle school level thanks to the incredible teachers who have become like family to us. While no two children are alike, both their teachers worked through challenges with incredible patience and communication. There have been many instances over the years where teachers and administrators alike have gone above and beyond the call of duty to help, even taking a lunch box that belonged to my elementary school child to his school when I accidentally mixed them up. It is our last year at parkview and it saddens me. I will forever be grateful for the amazing academic advantage they have given both of my children and the emotional intelligence to be kind and empathetic.

Due to the pandemic, we've been able to transition our child from full-time daycare to preschool…read moresince we both work from home. I did a lot of research regarding local preschools, and Child's Play was the clear winner for us! The cost is very affordable (and listed on their website, I believe). Hours are 9am-1pm with some additional before and after care options (offered separately not by the school). Drop-off and pick-up lines are very quick and smooth, especially compared to the stressful situations that I observe at other local preschools. The director is very warm and friendly. The school is faith-based with weekly chapel. COVID policies are either in line or slightly more laidback than other preschools / childcare locally. Children are not required to wear masks at any age. Teachers do not wear masks in the classroom, but some choose to wear masks when aiding the children in and out of cars in the drop-off and pick-up line. I have not personally heard of any COVID cases at the school this school year (2020-2021). I believe children can start as young as 18-24 months and stay until kindergarten. If you choose to hold back your child from K5, note that there is not a K5 transitional program but they can repeat the K4 curriculum. We have been very pleased with Child's Play and would recommend the program to anyone!

Her teachers, Ms. Melissa and Ms. Rama, are truly a Godsend. When our child first started, she didn't know English, but the teachers made sure she felt comfortable, supported, and included from day one. Their patience, care, and encouragement have completely changed her attitude toward school. She was never interested in going before, but with these two wonderful teachers, she now looks forward to it every day. She is now able to converse well in English, has started showing interest in reading and writing, and is more disciplined than ever before. The director has also been incredibly friendly and gave a personal touch to all of our conversations. She made onboarding so easy and stress-free, which really helped us feel comfortable from day one. We are so grateful to the entire team at Primrose for creating such a nurturing and supportive environment.

After the first week I had a concern with the communication style and spoke with them about it. After voicing these concerns I could feel the tension and what felt like annoyance and disapproval from the teacher. I am a smiley warm person, and greeted the staff with this disposition hoping this would settle any uncomfortable feeling. The kindness was not returned by his teacher. After several weeks and a conference with my sons teacher and director, it was obvious this was not a good fit for our son or family. If you have a busy boy, a social child, or a child with a vivid imagination- be warned- he or she will not be perceived well. If you are a mama who communicates- this is not the place for you. I have older children in highschool and have never had a back and forth in a parent teacher conference. When a teacher tells you your husband is rude, your actions as a mama are not appropriate, and she is appalled by your son. It is my due diligence to let other families know about my experience.
