I recently substituted at Show Me Love Learning Academy Mableton , and I can honestly say it was one of the worst daycare experiences I've ever had. When I first walked into the infant classroom, a teacher was playing music that was completely inappropriate for babies. Then, in the 3-4-year-old room, I noticed teachers being downright impolite to the children. I understand using a firm voice when needed, but they were speaking to these kids as if they were adults, without any consideration for age-appropriate communication. It was uncomfortable to watch. What shocked me most was how phones were out during nap time instead of staff helping children settle down and rest. The director seemed to play favorites and turned a blind eye to the chaos. I've never seen such carelessness or fake behavior in a childcare setting. One moment that truly disturbed me was when a little boy mentioned "just like Squid Games" during an activity, and Ms. James shouted at him in anger. The child didn't say anything wrong--he was just making an observation. Then there was a teacher who said, out loud, that a child "might have a yeast infection" because she was itchy. That's incredibly inappropriate and unprofessional. To make things worse, I was left alone in classrooms with children I had never met before, without any proper schedule or introduction. That's not only unsafe, but it's also unfair to both the kids and the staff. I introduced myself the best I could, but no one supported me or helped ease the transition. Some of the staff might be decent, but from what I observed, they weren't welcoming or helpful. It felt like the bare minimum was being done. I also noticed they were preparing food without gloves, using children's restrooms (which I later found out is illegal), and those same bathroom doors don't lock--so any child could walk in while an adult is using the restroom. To use a proper bathroom, staff would have to walk across to another building, which could leave classrooms over ratio. On top of that, no one answers the door when you knock. There were just too many violations in one day for me to stay quiet. I'm genuinely tempted to report them to the state. Those kids looked scared to be there, and no child should ever feel that way in a place that's supposed to care for and educate them. Parents, please be careful. Don't be fooled by a fake smile. Some of these places are unsafe, and they'll gaslight you if you speak up. Stay aware and protect your kids. It could never be me read more

I'm so pleased to run into Davina James. My child used to be in her classroom at the Atlanta Speech School. I was so excited to connect with Mrs. James she's amazing but I can't wait until she opens her own facility. My daughter suffered from dyslexia but overcame so many obstacles with working with her. If you see my message I work for the state and willing to invest in you and pay you outside to assist. I wish there were more amazing teachers like you and I'm so fortunate to have you in me and my daughter life. Please reach out for more opportunities read more

Show Me Love Learning Academy is the best daycare I have ever experienced. Every teacher is invested in each child's safety and education. My children would come home each day displaying the things they have learned. From sign language to Spanish, the amount of quality education the kids received is untouchable. We all shed a tear when it was time to move on. I am so grateful to have experienced a place like this and would recommend them to anyone in the area looking for quality childcare!! read more

What can I say about Show Me Love Learning Academy. My daughter loves going to school everyday. The teachers are great, the Academy has a great balance in their teaching styles and play time they provide for the kids. The Curriculum is great, at the age of 4, my daughter knows about Isaac Newton and gravity, and knows basic sign language as well. They also ensure the kids are learning at home by assigning them homework. The leadership, and teaching staff are great for caring for the kids. Would highly recommend. Great pricing as well compared to the area. If I can give them 10 stars I would. read more

My daughter began Show Me Love as an infant and continued going many years until she became school age. She was treated with so much love the staff was like family. After transitioning my daughter began Kindergarten reading above grade level and she easily adjusted to school life. I give many thanks to Ms. Kym and her staff they took excellent care of my daughter from infancy to potty training thru Pre-K nourishing her brain and warming her heart and easing my mind as a parent! read more

Show Me Love Learning Academy has truly exceeded my expectations as a learning facility for my son. As a first time mom, I was EXTREMELY leary of daycares because of all the stories and news about daycare incidents and accidents. I just didn't want my baby being another one. But after 3 personal referrals and one from a RANDOM stranger at the supermarket, I decided to at least do a tour. My husband, who is also very particular about people went with me and we both hot a GREAT feeling about Mrs. Kym and her establishment. Far better than the other places we toured for over a year trying to find childcare. Within a week, we signed him up and he has grown and developed so much. From talking more, socializing better, potty training, and even SHARING, we have truly enjoyed being surprised by the unique things he can identify and how well he grasps new information. We are truly enjoying our experience here with our son and we recommend that parents give it a try for their children's first learning experience. Remember, the foundation is the most important part of a house!!! read more

I couldn't have found a better place for my two kids. I leave my 1 and 2 yr old with a great staff that feels like family. I get an update on their learning activities everyday and what they have accomplished for that day. The facility is also very clean and well organized compared to a few that I have seen. And the ratio of children to teachers are small which is great. My 1 yr. old has learned how to recognize his alphabets and my 2 yr. old has learn to count to 30. I recommend Show me love learning academy to parents that want to give their children a good start in education. read more
