I wish that there was a way to leave a less than one star review on here. I sent my son here after…read morehe had previously attended a very well run daycare in Downtown Knox, but had to transfer him to a West Knox care facility when we moved.. He showed up a bright eyed, well behaved, and happy little boy - and left a year later constantly crying because he didn't want to go to school, coming home with bruises and scratch marks, and apologizing to me most nights because everyone called him a "bad kid". NO THREE YEAR OLD SHOULD EVER FEEL THE WAY THEY HAVE MADE MY CHILD FEEL. If you want to send your child to a care center that smells like dirty diapers constantly because they only change the trash once a day, or forces your child to pee with the door open so a classroom full of kids can see, feeds kids lunches out of cans everyday, and only allows children (2) half hour recess sessions a day - even on the most beautiful of days - then this is definitely the place for you. Oh, did I mention that they won't provide you with tax documents, or accept any payments other than cash/check? No camera's in the facility or classrooms either. No locks on the doors. Anyone can walk in at any time. This care facility is truly something out of my worst nightmare based sometime in the early 80's. There's a huge lack of mental stimulation needed to help children in their most impressionable stages, and they are forced to, instead, find ways to entertain themselves in small, dark, and dingy classrooms where they are playing with toys that are mostly broken and contribute next to nothing to their cognitive development. If you're looking for good, reliable, and educationally challenging care for your child in the West Knox area - I highly suggest you continue looking elsewhere. Any questions about my experience here? Feel free to DM me, I'd love to share.

I was not at all excited to have our daughter (3 mos at the time) in any infant care program, but…read moreher mother and I both work full-time. We checked-out four different facilities and decided on Cedar Bluff Play School. We've been quite pleased since day one and don't regret our decision one bit. The staff and owners are very personable and are absolutely great with little ones. Our daughter couldn't be happier to see the CBPS folks when we drop her off and that means a lot as a parent. As for the gal who left a 1 star review...well, you can't make everyone happy. And, as I mentioned above, we looked at several different facilities before deciding on CBPS. 1 Star?! Yeah, right. No way! Young children have dirty diapers that have to be changed, but I've never smelled dirty diapers at CBPS. They're there somewhere, but I haven't stumbled upon them or their scent. Feeding kids out of cans?! They have a kitchen and the meals are cooked daily. In fact, the owners make sure there are plenty of supplies so that children get all they want to eat. (No kid is going hungry on their watch). Kids forced to entertain themselves in small, dark and dingy classrooms w/broken toys?! I don't know where this lady had her child, but it wasn't the CBPS our girl attends... You're not going to find a better group of people to care for your children. These folks are fantastic!

This happened to my friend there:…read more "My daughter had another 4-5 year old attempt to penetrate her with his finger at Cozy Kids Daycare yesterday (not show and tell, not just touch, but go down low and attempt to press his finger inside her). Cozy Kids Daycare (Specifically April Bean, the owner) said that a talk with the parents and a note home was sufficient. It was not a sufficient response for me. I have removed my daughter from the daycare effective immediately. I have recommended them time and time again. But when I came in to talk with April this morning I was met with resistance and confrontation. She is always so kind and sweet, however this morning I saw a side of her i've never seen. It's like she came prepared to contest me. She was so bothered that I actually came in to talk about this situation and have something done about it. I can not accurately articulate my lividity but I have filed a police report and hopefully DCS can figure out how a child that young knows about a girls private parts... Why does this child want to stick his finger inside... Why did he know to wait until they were in a play "tunnel" to do it? Ava is fine but my concern is for the other child now and the fact that Cozy Kids daycare did not take my situation seriously. Yes I wanted the offending child removed or i said I was removing Ava. April's response: "That's fine." My response, "I have filed a police report and DCS has been informed. April's (verbatim) response: "You think they're gonna do anything?" Yes. I do. I think they will investigate and make sure the other child is in a safe situation. I think they will look out for the best interest of the children and do a formal investigation. I didn't want the other child "prosecuted" obviously, but this is not something to be taken lightly and a child who would forcibly offend like this, should be separated, until details can be confirmed, from another opportunity to offend until he has been rehabilitated. I thank the Lord that our daughter knew to tell on this child immediately. We have sent 3 kids through their daycare and have been very happy and always felt like our kids were safe. But after seeing how they handled this situation, I am rescinding every referral I have ever given this daycare. Me and Laurie have been up all night and had to leave church after Ava explained to Laurie what happened because she broke down on the spot. I'm really glad they had the air compressor on the door as I walked out because I probably would have broken it when I went to shut it. Any questions, feel free to message me."

No one comes to Yelp for preschool reviews but idk where else you can leave stuff like this…read more Overall fine school, the individual teachers are fantastic, but the leadership and policies are irrational and subpar. 1) the leader of the school is condescending and irrational. If your kid sneezes once she will call you to come get them. They're kids, there's gonna be a sneeze and snot here and there. No one is trying to send their kid to school if they're actually sick. 2) leader emailed the parents BLAMING them for causing some of the teachers for getting Covid. Like it was Covid, everyone was getting it, and you act like the teachers don't interact with a single person outside of school? And 3) we went an entire month of school being cancelled bc of Knox county closures for sickness, then the school itself had sickness. Then there was no consideration for a prorated fee that month. Not even asking for a free month just a little something back since literally NO SERVICES were provided. 4) You pay for a key fob for the year to "access the school," but are discouraged from ever coming in to the school and instead just let them bring kids in and out every day. Fine whatever, but then they don't give you a refund at end for returning the fob and will charge you to replace if lost. I want to reiterate the individual teachers are great. The leader/boss and the school policies are out of touch with reality, condescending, and irrational.

If you truly care about you children health, this is the place you should consider for your child…read more This is a relatively small 9am-2pm preschool that is for 3-5 years old children. My two youngest children attended this wonderful place, and the only thing I can say - THANK YOU! Total, we had 3 years long experience with this school, and during all this time, our children never got virus/bacteria from school. Yes, most of the times, they will not let you bring in a child who coughs or has runny nose, but you can feel safe - only healthy children will be around your child there. It is important if in your family, you have seniors or more children that you care about. Also, in cold weather, they will not let children go outside without appropriate clothes on. They preserve child's health. Daily, children spend 5 hours in school, and every hour is full of learning opportunities, fun, and creative activities. The number and the quality of crafts that children bring home every day is very impressive! Teachers are absolutely incredible, especially, Mrs. Lindsay (3 years old group). They really love children, and they truly care about children! Parents and children love this place! We have a big experience with different preschools, but this one is definitely exceptional!

Do not send your child to this "camp". There is no adult…read moresupervision, other than the lady who owns it. There is a small, dirty pool for the children to use daily, which has nothing to prevent accidentally falling in, no life saving equipment, and depth is unmarked. I cannot tell if the owner or any of the teenagers working for her are trained in lifesaving or first aid. The only restroom and changing room (one for both genders) for the children is in the owner's house, on the property. After my child's first day at the camp, I discussed with another parent, whose child was also in the camp (very close friends of ours), my concerns. The second day camp, my friend called the camp and spoke with the owner's teenaged daughter about our concerns. (this daughter keeps track of payments etc....not the adult owner)The daughter put my friend's mind at ease. 20 minutes later the owner called my cell phone several times in a row before I could get to it. Seeing that it was the horse camp I panicked, thinking something had happened to my child. I called her back. She said, "First of all, have you paid?" (I paid my deposit and tried to pay her the first day with debit...to which she said to pay her cash....hmmmmm...anyway we discussed the payment and I was to give her a check on the second day when I picked up my child) I asked if my child was ok. She was. She accused me of trying not to pay. Then...."and secondly, so and so's mom just called. Do you have a problem?" In a very aggressive way, she accused me of going behind her back and talking about the place to my friend and other parents. At my friend's advice, I called owner back because she wanted to "start over". She apologized and went on and on about crazy stuff....talking so fast I could hardly understand her. I just listened. Then she started talking about my payment and said that she was upset because we had no communication about payment. At this point I finally spoke. I told her she would get her f-ing check.....then she cut me off and told me to come get my f-ing kid. 10 minutes later, while I am on my way, she called again to tell me to come get my kid and hung up on me. At this point I called my husband who was closer to the place than I was and certainly not as pissed off as I was, to go get her. 10 minutes after that she called me again to know when I was coming to get my kid. At this point I was being a smart ass and told her that we would get there when we got there. Then she asked me if I was mentally ill and repeatedly, like a chant, told that I needed medicine. I had to interrupt her chanting to ask her what time she would like me to tell the police to come to uninsured, unlicensed business. The first day I had ever spoken to that woman my gut instinct told me something was very off. In addition, my child was stung by a wasp on that 2nd day and none from the camp even told me.
