Read the negative reviews and base your decision off that. The Owner's will respond spouting off about their "Vision, Values and Mission" but they don't care about any of it. It's there to help them rope you in and make money. They only care about money not about the children or the parents. I am sure they will respond here with the same canned responses they give every other negative review. They refuse to resolve issues face to face, through email or over the phone "they don't have a contact number" yea sure they don't have a phone. Attached to this post will be pictures of all the reasons we decided to remove our child from this "school" please be wary of the positive posts on here. The staff does not seem to care about anything going on, and are there to just pick up a paycheck and could care less what happens with our children. We have brought up issues multiple times with the director, and given plenty of time for the issues to be resolved, however the director seems to brush off the issue and no resolution was made, hence our choice to remove our son from this "school" If the owners of the "school" would like to discuss this information further with us, they can feel free to give us a call ( Not email , not canned responses to this post a genuine phone call); if we do not hear from them , then we will assume they do not have concern for the health and well being of the children in their facility and are only in the business to make money.

The reason why we especially love Barfield Academy is they take time to teach the children instead of letting TVs babysit them. My child has grown immensely since attending. The focus on manners, ABCs, 123s and overall just being a good respectful little person make my wife and I very happy. I know there has been some turnover at the director level, but those were personal choices that people had to make for career advancement, which should never be frowned upon. Miss Alice and Miss Emily have this school running on all cylinders and we are proud to be a part of the Barfield Academy family.

We removed our child from Sol Spanish Immersion School after what we believe was a very poor…read moreresponse to a serious child safety issue. In late April, a four-year-old student reportedly exposed himself and inappropriately touched multiple classmates, including our son. Another parent informed us after reviewing school video footage and confronting the administration. When we spoke with our son, he independently confirmed the same behavior without prompting. Another family later reported similar concerns. What disappointed us most was not the behavior of a four-year-old child, but how the school administration handled the situation. In our experience, there was a lack of transparency, inadequate follow-up with families, and no clear effort to determine whether additional children had been affected. When we raised concerns directly with the director, we felt dismissed and ignored. Because of this, we no longer felt confident in the school's judgment or commitment to student safety and withdrew our child. We have reported the matter to CPS and hope the school reevaluates its policies and response to inappropriate sexual behaviors between students so that child safety is treated with the seriousness it deserves.

Our son had a hard time in schools due to being abused by a teacher very briefly and very early on (age 2). That school is now shut down, thankfully. The only way we found out about it (our son was not able to express the abuse yet) is because the teachers apologetically told us they would restrain him physically and would pull him out from tables he was hiding under (from them) by his FEET! We saw all of these things on camera. They are not exaggerated , even though its crazy to think anyone could treat a 3-4 year old child this way.. My son was assaulted by multiple teachers at this school when he attended this school briefly. Early on the owners were professional and seemed knowledgeable about caring for other people's children, they were also our friends of several years. It seems the husband is much more savvy and caring than the wife - the wife should not run any business, much less one with as much impact as childcare has. 1) The first time it happened (teacher being rough with him and putting hands on him), the teacher was fired. -moved to another classroom- 2) The second time it happened (teacher grabbed him by his ear and pulled him so hard that he tripped over a chair and was then placed into a corner once he got up), we were given a sob story of how sorry the teacher was. How she had never done anything like that before and it was the best teacher they had... -moved to another classroom- 3) The third time it happened, it was the owners SISTER (married couple who have a son who has similar issues which is why they opened their own daycare in the first place) manhandled our son and yanked him around and yanked him out of the classroom and made him lay on the ground in the hall where he laid with his face down crying for several minutes. We imminently picked up our son and got him out of there. The owner/wife returned that weeks tuition and no apology was ever given. We wish the husband had been at the Murfreesboro location the entire time. He was very good with him and was very patient and knew exactly what to do and was far more professional. But the wife, she seemed like the had more important things to do and seemed dismissive, careless and impulsive. The third time listed above was after I spoke to the wife/owner and tried to find a way to effectively work together with the teachers so our son could be successful and one of the many shocking things she said to me was that she explained how we had been given "special treatment" already and that our son deserved to be handled the way he was by their teachers. Honesely, we should have reported this abuse to DCS the first time and never come back. I could go on... but I think this is enough to explain why I would never recommend anyone leave their child in the care of this day care. There is a stark difference between those who get into this business for money and who get into it to nurture our future leaders. It has been nearly 2 years since he left this school and our son is doing very well and *excelling* now that he has been consistently in a good school with loving, educated, knowledgeable teachers. Message me if you would like recommendations.

We are incredibly thankful for the fantastic admin staff and teachers at primrose cool springs!…read more Finding childcare that you're comfortable with, checks all the boxes, etc. can be challenging, but we've found that with primrose. 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!

I am writing this review to share my family's experience so other parents can make informed…read moredecisions. My daughter attended Primrose until December 2025. We ultimately withdrew her after ongoing concerns about communication, follow-through, and basic care. The first time I was told that my daughter was experiencing "severe, daily issues" in her classroom was on 11/13/25, when the owner, Susan Burrow, stated that she was overwhelmed at school and unable to keep up with peers. This was surprising, as her teachers had consistently reported that she was having good days with only occasional incidents. The following day (11/14/25), I met with the Assistant Director, Blanne Burrow, to discuss simple, low-effort strategies that could help support my daughter when she became overstimulated. He took notes, and I sent a follow-up email summarizing our discussion. Later that afternoon, I received a call from the owner stating that none of the accommodations worked, despite it being only a few hours since our initial conversation. She also requested an "updated" diagnosis for my daughter's autism. I had to explain to a childcare provider that autism is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disability and that the diagnostic criteria do not expire. On 11/21/25, I followed up with my daughter's lead teacher to ask whether the suggested accommodations had been shared with her. She could only recall one item, which made it clear the list had not been communicated or implemented in any real way, despite assurances that these strategies had already been attempted. There were also two separate occasions when I discovered that my daughter had not been changed for an extended period, resulting in soaked clothing and irritation: * 11/26/24: I noticed at home that she was still wearing the pull-up I had put on her that morning. It was fully saturated, her pants were wet, and she had had a bowel movement that caused irritation. I reported this immediately to the director and her teachers. * 10/1/25: I noticed the same situation when picking her up--wet pants, soaked pull-up, and a bowel movement. I brought her back inside to be cleaned and informed her teachers and the front desk, and notified the director the next day. These were not isolated communication issues. They became a pattern of concerns regarding transparency, follow-through, and basic care expectations. After weeks of trying to collaborate and advocate, we made the difficult decision to withdraw. After speaking with several staff members, I learned that my experience was not an isolated case. I was told that Primrose has pressured other families to withdraw children who fall outside what the school views as 'the norm.' I also learned that staff are not given any training on how to work with children who have special needs, despite repeated requests from teachers for that support. Every child deserves to feel supported, safe, and cared for at school. Unfortunately, that was not our experience here.

The next day, when I sent her to the school, I couldn't help but be angry. They didn't feel guilty at all, but they also shirked their responsibility, what hell the kind of school like that? They all only care about money. They were Careless how uncomfortable the children are in dirty vomiting clothes on... Because we have just moved herefrom other states, can't find a kindergarten near here in the short time, too bad, we have no other option to choose this school.

There is a reason this was the only daycare in Davidson and Williamson county with an immediate…read morespot open, no waitlist. Save yourself and your child the heartache and do not bring your children here!! They accepted our 1 year old baby who has been in daycare since he was 4 months and attends church nursery regularly - all without one mention of any type of problem. Ever. He started at this school Monday. Within *one hour* of dropping him off we got a call saying we needed to come right away and pick up our baby because he bit someone. When we got there they had all of his things packed and said he was kicked out. We asked to see the video camera footage because we were so shocked he would bite anyone when he has never done that before. They refused to show us any footage. They said it was against privacy rules - which is a lie, and in previous reviews you can read how they did show footage to other families. Only showing us a cell phone photo of the "bite". The photo was of a child wearing shorts - when none of the other children in his class had on shorts that day because it was cold that morning. I'm not saying it's impossible he bit someone, all babies do at some point. It's normal. But what is unbelievable is that he would bite someone and they would kick him out within 1 hour, the very first day. It seems like they just didn't want him there for some reason. I'm glad this happened because my mom intuition was going off, and this was not a good place for my child. Our baby has never cried when dropped off at school, babysitters, church, anywhere. At this school he cried and he was still crying when we got there an hour later once he was kicked out. We are concerned that he was inappropriately punished and we don't know that he wasn't mistreated after this "incident" since they won't show us the footage of what actually happened Also, this facility falsifies documents. They never had us sign our child in/out that day. Then We got a notification on their app that someone changed his wet diaper at 10:15am, with teacher initials next to it - he left the school before 10am. Furthermore, they forged my husbands signatures on enrollment paperwork with an electronic time stamp on 3/22 when my child was expelled from the school on 3/21, so we were not even there or enrolled on that date. Save yourself and your child the emotional distress and please STAY AWAY from this place.
