After 2.5 years at TLA South, we decided to move our son to another daycare, and looking back, I…read morewish we had made the decision much sooner. The best thing this center has going for it is the new Director, Stephanie. Unfortunately, our experience with Executive Director Simmie (who also happens to be the daughter of the owners) was consistently disappointing. When we raised concerns, we often felt dismissed, and communication was poor. Instead of feeling like our concerns were heard or addressed, we left many conversations feeling frustrated. Another ongoing frustration was there was rarely anyone available at the front of the building during morning drop-off. When we first started attending, there was someone at the desk but toward the end there was never administration present in the morning. The teachers were tucked away in their rooms but no one in the front of the building - raising safety concerns. If parents had a question, concern, or needed to communicate something important about their child, there often wasn't anyone there to speak with. It gave the impression that parent communication was simply not a priority. One of our concerns was that the primary afternoon teacher had difficulty communicating with us in English. We found this challenging, especially when discussing our son's day and developmental progress. When we raised this concern, we did not feel it was taken seriously by Simmie. In contrast, Stephanie acknowledged that this communication barrier was a significant issue and recognized the impact it had on families. We appreciated that she listened and understood why it mattered. We also repeatedly asked for support with potty training and were told it would be addressed, but we never saw a consistent plan implemented. The classroom itself appeared to have a limited selection of older toys, and we saw very little evidence of structured educational activities or curriculum. Our son frequently came home with reports of scratches, hitting, and other incidents involving classmates. While occasional incidents happen in any daycare, the frequency became concerning to us and ultimately contributed to our decision to leave. The difference since changing schools has been remarkable. In just two weeks at his new center, our son has been happier, more engaged, and thriving. Every family's experience may be different, but based on ours, I encourage parents to thoroughly explore all of their childcare options before making a decision.

I scheduled a tour for my 2-year-old daughter, joined by her sister and father, but it turned out…read moreto be a terrible experience. The assistant director didn't speak to us, seemed dry, and acted like our presence made her uncomfortable. When we asked questions, she barely responded, which felt odd. Right away, I knew this wasn't the place for us. The only pleasant person was Ms. Wyniferd, who gave us the tour, was polite, and answered all our questions. Aside from her, the daycare itself seemed nice, but the assistant director's attitude gave me a bad feeling. Honestly, I'm glad she acted that way--it made my decision easy. A director should always communicate warmly and greet visitors. Why would I leave my child with someone in charge who's rude? It makes me wonder how my child would be treated when I'm not around.

I would give it a 5, except my boys have had some trouble being bullied by other boys in their class. And if the Georgia red clay could be covered up in the playground area, that would be helpful. We've had some new, lighter-colored pants stained beyond repair. They get a 4 because the teachers have always been quick to respond to any issues and make it right. I want to shout out to my boys' teachers, Mrs. Amy and Mrs. Gigi, they are phenomenal.

The worst learning center for your children. My husband and I enrolled our son in this school and…read morehe has developed and adapted terrible behaviors because of lack of supervision from his teachers (who looks overwhelmed every single day), lack of support from the administration and lack of communication from the admin. The first red flag was when Tabitha told me, in the main lobby, as I was coming in, infront of parents, that my son was being "aggressive". That took me by surprise. My son is 1 years old, that verbiage is ridiculous. Then, the director Amanda Meadows said that my son "busted" a child's lip and he "clawed" a child. How do I know all of this to be true? I tried to set up meeting with Amanda and Dalis to confirm this and speak through this because my husband and I do not believe our son clawed or busted anyone! In which they DO NOT respond back. All I hear from the administration, including Amanda is that they are understaffed so she is consistently running in circles with no purpose except handing out papers to me stating that my son Is suspended. My son has only been enrolled for 2 months and he has been disenrolled as of today because this administration and teachers do not know how to do their job correctly! My son has NEVER had a behavior issue. The final straw was Amanda handing me a paper AGAIN infront of parents, saying that he is suspended and I told her that I would appreciate if we spoke in private and not infront of other people and she said "this space here was an office" and continued to talk about my sons behavior. The Tabitha lady was rude and I witnessed her talking too firm to a child that bit and when she saw me look at her she stopped. Another teacher who is dark skinned and younger had my son on her hip after changing him and I walked into his classroom and this other toddler was crying so instead of consoling this toddler who's visibly upset, she was staring at her and did nothing! I had to console the toddler myself! The facility is dirty. They high level clean, but don't sanitize thoroughly. Our previous academy for our son was 1000 times better! They are called MT. Elizabeth academy and I recommend everyone there! This has to be the worst learning center. Today was my sons last day and whoever packed his bag put his craft papers at the bottom of the bag all crumbled up!!! M No consideration. They are so quick to suspend and slow for everything else! This admin only responds to email in LENGTH about child's behavior and state they are doing EVERYTHING. Which is untrue. It was 2 weeks since enrollment and this Tabitha lady said "what do you guys do, we have exhausted all our resources" like really? In 2 weeks time?! How much can you exhaust in 2 weeks time and see results over night?! Makes no sense! I tried to meet with Amanda the director this last time and asked if we could meet on the coming Friday and she said no because she would be out of office (which you NEVER SEE her or the assistant director in the mornings or past 5pm - so if you need to talk to them, good luck) so she mentioned she was ONLY available the next day in the middle of the day and if we couldn't meet the next day then she would schedule something the following week! Which is ridiculous. I told her that I needed to speak with her or a superior asap about my son and didn't want my son to get disenrolled. Instead of giving me someone's contact information so that we could meet I contacted Dalis, the enrollment director. I emailed her, I texted her and the next day I called her at 12pm, she answered and said "oh I was going to call you. Can I call you at 4-5?" And never did! Why even say you were going to call me and then reschedule your call to me?! So UNPROFESSIONAL. All the teachers that we made contact are rude. They won't look at you in the eyes and say good morning or good bye or nothing. Especially the dark skinned young lady. She was farthest from being nice. The assistant director Kaley was rude and unprofessional and made our son situation hostile. I wish I could write more. All this happened in 2 months.
