I would recommend them to anyone looking for quality childcare!

His teachers have done so much to encourage his natural curiosity. He tells us all the time how much he loves school. One morning we pulled into the parking lot really early and he could see his teacher was changing out the learning materials from the last unit to the next. He squealed, "We are learning something new!" I could hardly get him out of the car fast enough. He is also very grounded in the concepts of love, acceptance, and kindness to all. Montessori is awesome and Preston Ridge does it better than anyone else around. Our daughters have just started the pre-primary class and at two they are learning letter sounds, healthy routines, math fundamentals, and how to be good friends and classmates. We know that in three years, they too will be ready for the world outside of this wonderful school as good learners and good little humans.

Going to copy and paste what my mother in law sent to the directors as to why we chose to unenroll…read moreour child from this preschool and will NOT recommend to any family in Cumming or around. Here is our review: I am writing to express my utter disappointment in the way in which our sweet, happy hearted four year old was treated at Cumming First United Methodist Preschool. I can not tell you how overjoyed we all were when we found out a slot had opened and she was going to be able to attend. Having been a member for 20+ years, dedicated to many years of leading and participating in all of the volunteer programs with the church, my granddaughter being baptized there and my daughter's eulogy being officiated by Rev. Kathy Stasko, our family has always considered the church leaders and fellow parishioners as being welcoming, loving and full of grace. In a very short amount of time, I have witnessed bias, judgement and a lack of understanding and grace.. Below are the details of the occurrences leading up to our decision to withdraw our 4 year old from CFUMC Pre School: To begin with, your application queries as to the level of potty training in which your child can be considered, to which my son and daughter in law answered honestly that she was not completely trained. The fact that she was not completely potty trained became an issue immediately, prompting Kim Hannigan to send the first of her condescending, misinformed emails to my son and daughter in law. After a lengthy conversation with her teacher Ms. Wendy, she seemed to be confused as to why Kim sent an email and stated that there wasn't a problem with our 4 year old; she didn't understand why Kim contacted us. We were instructed to send her in a Pull Up by the teachers and Kim contradicted that instruction stating that it was "not appropriate" After contacting Taie, the Director about the mis-direction and the condescending email from Kim, our 4 year old became a target of constant scrutiny We received reports of our 4 year old acting aggressively almost daily. In particular, we were told that she was aggressive towards a non-verbal child in the class yet when she was questioned at home about it, she would tell us how she was pushed. On a regular basis, we were told that she didn't complete work and wouldn't participate, was disruptive; despite her bringing home completed papers on a regular basis A second rudely worded, lecturing email was sent from Kim regarding an accident she had, after many weeks of no incidents, to which we called a meeting and requested that instead of hiding behind an email, maybe Kim should be a little more human and pick up the phone and have a conversation. Most people who want to truly resolve an issue would communicate verbally so that there was no misperception of one's tone or intent. My daughter in law noticed that our 4 year olds hair had been cut in the front. She asked her how it happened and she said "kids name" did it. When she sent the picture and contacted the school about why another child had scissors so close to our 4 year olds eyes, she simply received a response showing a picture of River, stating that the hair wasn't cut. Yet, if you zoom in, you can see that the short hairs were swept back and blended in with her other hair. Secondly, nothing was investigated with the other child and the same scrutiny was not used as had been with our 4 year old. Lastly, my daughter in law received a call stating that another child stated our 4 year old "touched her privates". When she arrived at the school and asked for details, she was told that they didn't further investigate. Again, it was just assumed this occurred and she was to blame. There was no discussion or attempt to try and determine what, if anything happened at all. Once home, she was asked if she touched the child and where, she said she touched "the back of her head". Our 4 year old is a member of her Girl Scout troop, plays with neighborhood kids of all ages and interacts with her cousins almost every weekend. She is a sweet spirited, active little four year old who has never acted aggressively towards anyone. I am so upset that she was exposed to bad behaviors and treated so unfairly by an establishment we all trusted. Furthemore, I am empathetic towards any child with special needs but I do not think your school is equipped with the trained professionals necessary to handle non verbal children, along with young children who are around them. In particular, you always placed blame on our 4 year old when she interacted with said child and never offered to acknowledge that he too was aggressive towards her. In closing, I am disgusted with the lack of grace shown to our 4 year old and hi-light the fact that the leadership in this children's program is sub par. You have failed our 4 year old; she loses in this situation and that should weigh heavily on everyone's conscience.

We did not have a good experience at CFUMC preschool. My child did not feel supported & loved here…read more We moved to another preschool just up the road & the difference is amazing... he's happy & thriving. Please look elsewhere... there are much better & loving preschools in Cumming. They STRONGLY discourage you walking your child to class, they want you to use the car drop off/pick up line from the first day. If your child separates easily no problem but for my child walking him in & saying goodbye at the door makes a huge difference in his day. The supply list for the 3 year old classroom was huge & rather expensive. And they were constantly having "fundraisers" which of course required more money. Also important to know in the 3 year old class if your child has a potty accident after Christmas they require you, the parent, to come clean your child up. Wasn't an issue for us but definitely shows a lack of compassion & love towards the children in their care.

Just recently took a job at this center to teach in the older 2's classroom. I was completely…read moredisappointed in the number of children in that classroom. I am not a supporter of ratio and that is what is happening here. I am a supporter of capacity in the classroom in any daycare setting. Overcrowding can lead to a chaotic classroom environment that is more difficult for the teacher to manage. The increased number of students leads to a greater likelihood of disruptive behavior and conflicts among students, especially with fewer resources to accommodate the extra students. Teachers in overcrowded classrooms often devote more time to dealing with behavioral issues and less time to teaching--something no teacher desires. This leads to aggression and high level of stress in the kids. This is exactly what I witnessed. There seemed to be this level of importance on videos and pictures taken throughout the day, which I support but that seems to get in the way of managing the classroom. At some points you had 3 caregivers in the room, 1 would be trying to teach curriculum to 5 students at a time and 1 one would be videoing the teaching while the other 1 was trying to manage the other 16 children in 4 different play centers. It is impossible. Also, this center does not provide a clinic area for sick children. I witness a child with a 102 fever sent back to the classroom full of other children to wait for the parent to pick them. Also, only management may speak with the parent about behavioral issues with the parents. I completely disagree with the approach and my reasoning are that it undermines the support team each child needs with the caregiver who is with the child on a daily basis more hours in the day that the working parent. It does take a team effort in the daycare setting and at home to encourage citizenship and to cultivate learning in each child. If I tell a parent on a daily basis that their child had a great day when in fact their child had been very aggressive towards multiple children the entire day, then I am lying to that parent. My point is this, I personally like the management team and people but I could no longer work there for the reason stated above. Again I don't think they are bad people but they can do much much much better.
