I was highly recommended Kiddie Academy from a moms fb group so I scheduled a tour. My family and I…read moremoved here from out of town so we really had no idea what to expect. However, when we got there 15 minutes prior to our scheduled time the director was nowhere to be found and we were just sitting there. I finally asked the lady at the front desk when we could meet with the director and she told me she was not there, but still at her son's doctor appt. I totally understood that, however, she asked me to reschedule for later so of course, I said yes. I received confirmation to my phone and then another notification saying the staff was out due to a stomach bug or something like that. I understand. However, after that I expected to get a call from the director or the school to reschedule once again but that never happened. My intention in writing this is just for another mama to take my experience into consideration when looking for the perfect fit for their kiddos. It just seemed/s off. However, I went with my gut and found the school I was looking for AMEN!

This was by FAR the worst experience we've with a daycare. For reference, KA was our 3rd daycare so…read morefar (we recently moved to the area). Where to begin: 1. Prior to enrolling, our 2yr old was going through her 'biting' stages of toddlerhood. She had two incidents at her prior school with a long stint of no incidents after that before enrolling in KA. Once enrolled at KA, our 2yr old went on biting streak. Upon further investigation as to why this kept happening, I found out that A) the classroom was incredibly overcrowded - there was no way any amount of teachers could keep an eye on that amount of kids and B) everyday there was a new teacher in the classroom. The teacher churn was UNREAL. That tells me they don't pay their teachers jack squat and kids run the place so of course the teachers don't care. After awhile, they would start sending my 2yr old home after an incident. How the F am I supposed to pay for daycare if I also have to watch my child? I brought this up to management but they didn't care. Eventually our 2yr old was kicked out of KA. At her new school, she's had one incident of biting in 6 months. Her class has the same 2 teachers M-F and a much smaller class size. 2. KA will take any and every excuse to either close down or send your child home for the day, not just major holidays or incidents, not to mention the 2 weeks off around Christmas/New Years that you are EXPECTED to continue to pay for. Training day for teachers 2-3 times per year? Schools closed, kids stay home and you pay for it. Woke holiday? Schools closed, you pay for it. Mild storm expected? Schools closed, you pay for it. 3. This school is incredibly cheap and although the facilities are nice, good luck trying to get a refund or vacation time without escalating it past management to the owners. All in all, I would avoid unless its your only option.

This time the video games were not working and the tablets were not available to them because the workers said that they could not use them. They said the other toys were for much younger children maybe like for under. So they walked around bored the whole time. We requested that they be fed but when we picked them up they charged us for the food but my kids said they had not been fed so I told them they hadn't been said and they said that the computer listed them as fed but they did not charge us for that . The air hockey machine was broken as well so my kids could not use that. My kids said that the workers were shouting at the kids and didn't speak very kindly. At one point the kids were all shouting the f word but the workers didn't Stop them. They're also were many children and babies but only two workers watching all of them. We love the idea of drop in child care and the price is nice. It was a good experience before when there were things available for older children. But my children walked around bored the entire 2 hours we were gone and never want to go back .​

The teachers, especially Miss Joelle and Miss Paula, have been fundamental in my child's growth. The director, administration, and entire leadership team are all thoughtful, engaged, and really dedicated to helping kids thrive. We couldn't be happier!

Primrose of Mt Juliet is run and operated by a great group of individuals. The teachers are caring, engaging, and professional. My son learned things that I would never have thought a three year old could comprehend. I always felt very informed and involved in the activities at the school.

Additionally, they went up 16.5% on our tuition last year, and another price increase is coming in the next month or so. On top of the price increase, they have cut some of their services. They used to offer a full breakfast, but they have changed that to an AM snack instead. It's very frustrating to be charged more for tuition and get less services. I would've highly recommended this place a year or so ago, but they are the most expensive place in town and you can probably find better quality elsewhere. We are in the process of looking at new facility to move our daughter.

Would absolutely rate this zero stars. As a husband of a former employee and father of a child…read moreenrolled, I am highly disappointed in the treatment of employees and students at this place. Policies allow the children to run wild with no true guidance or discipline, parents way overpay for what care the children are provided. Parents pay $400 per week per child and are fed ham sandwiches multiple times each week. Teachers come and go because after 90 days, they realize that this employer is a scam. Health insurance is not affordable and teachers with children still pay a large portion of their checks for their children to be enrolled. Teachers are great individuals but are not paid according to their responsibilities and duties. Multiple teachers are given out of ratio classrooms and are asked to do more per shift because of employee turnover: STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE.
