The school is phenomenal in its academics, curriculum, and overall learning environment. They truly set children up for success while making education fun, engaging, and meaningful. The Principal Ms. Charmaine is Incredible--warm, professional, and deeply invested in every child's growth. Her leadership sets the tone for the entire school, and you can feel her passion the moment you walk through the doors. We are also beyond grateful for my daughters teacher Ms. Isis, who is nothing short of amazing. She consistently goes above and beyond to support learning, encourage confidence, and make sure every child feels seen and valued. Her dedication and creativity shine through in everything she does. On top of that, Everbrook is extremely accommodating to parents. Their communication, flexibility, and willingness to work with families make the entire experience seamless and comforting. The entire staff is so friendly and amazing. You always feel like you're part of a true partnership. I couldn't recommend Everbrook Academy more. It's a place where children thrive--and where parents feel supported every step of the way.

After trying several other daycares in the area and being extremely unhappy with the results, we…read moresent our daughter to Goddard and never regretted the decision. The staff is excellent, she never had a teacher who didn't connect with her on a personal level and she always received top-notch personal attention. Her development both interpersonally with her classmates ("friends" in the parlance of Goddard) and her readiness for kindergarten was amazing. She was so well prepared that during her placement test for the public school kindergarten she currently attends the teacher giving the test came back after a few minutes and said: "Well that was the quickest test ever. Your daughter already knows everything she needs for Kindergarten." And it is not just the staff. Goddard attracts great kids and does a great job of teaching them. Every day when I dropped off and picked up my daughters I was surrounded by "friends" who would be just as excited to see me as they were my little one. It really is a great community of learners who are nurtured to do their best. I would completely recommend it as the finest daycare (honestly it is more a school than a daycare) in Rock Hill that I have run across and anyone who wants their child to have a successful start in life should seriously consider sending their child there.

The Goddard School of Waxhaw undoubtedly makes their best effort to care for all children by providing them with everything they could need while in the schools care. The staff adapts to the children's individual personalities and needs daily in all classrooms. The classrooms have a curriculum style that encourages students to learn and have fun while doing so!

If I could give Zero stars, I'd happily do it, but let me delve deeper into the infuriating ordeal…read moremy grandson endured at Goddard School in Waxhaw--it was nothing short of a living nightmare. Picture this: my innocent three-year-old acting out in class for weeks on end. And what insightful solution does the school offer? Suppression clothes and a suggestion for a professional evaluation. Fair enough, we were contemplating those options. But then, out of the blue, they drop the bombshell--kicking him out on a Friday evening, no less, at the ungodly hour of 6 PM! Can you even fathom the recklessness of such a decision? It left us in an absolute frenzy, scrambling to find last-minute childcare while also threatening the stability of a newly acquired job. When I chose to confront them about their callousness and request a copy of my grandson's file, what did I get? Disrespected and dismissed, with Sherrie having the gall to slam the phone down on me! Let me make it abundantly clear: my grandson has been a part of the Goddard family since he was barely old enough to walk. And yet, after just a solitary month of behavioral struggles, they cast him aside like he means nothing! The audacity of their actions is beyond belief! I'll be honest, as the only African-American male in his class, when I suggested the importance of building his confidence and strengths to prevent him from feeling isolated, I was unfairly labeled as a racist. Despite our request for him to be moved to a more challenging environment being denied, we persisted, determined not to see him left behind. Initially, we thought the Goddard program, being a 5-star school, would be an excellent fit. But in Waxhaw, it's clear it's not suitable for everyone. The resistance we faced in advocating for our child's needs highlighted a troubling lack of inclusivity and understanding. I would not recommend this school at all it you don't want to play the popularity game and buy into these dynamics in order for you child to have equal access to opportunities for advancement DO NOT ENROLL YOUR CHILD at this school.

Thank you to Fort Mill Cooperative Preschool and all of the staff for inviting us to the zoo field…read moretrip! It was such a special first experience for my little one. The trip itself was quite a distance, which made it even more meaningful that everything was so well organized and thoughtfully planned. It was a wonderful way to connect with the staff and some of the families. One of the most meaningful parts of the experience was seeing the parent involvement in action. While it was the parents leading and supporting the group, Ms. Skyler's natural connection with the children, her energy, and her presence stood out. It was truly special to witness the level of trust and bond between the staff, and children. There is even a mini farm and a few gardens at the school. What makes Fort Mill Cooperative Preschool unique is how they encourage and create space for that involvement. Through field trips, events, and holiday celebrations, they build a strong, connected environment for both children and families. We especially love Ms. Emmy and Ms. Skyler. The owner, director and the Fort Mill Co-op family-staff have truly changed school for my son. A huge thank you to Ms. Szilvia Fillmore, the on-site Clinical Art Counselor, who is also affiliated with Thrive Family Services. Through her support and collaboration with the staff, my son has grown in his ability to identify and communicate his needs and emotions. This was very valuable! The tools and materials she brings into the classroom were something we didn't even realize we were missing at previous schools. This is truly an incredible school, with strong values and a genuine commitment to each child's growth and development. We are so grateful for your thoughtful and engaging approach to learning.

My issues were my last few months** As I look back and question my choices to leave my kids here makes me sad. I loved a select few teachers, my girls were lucky to have them. If they had any other teachers I would have pulled them out way before I did. This is not a place that I would tell another parent to bring their kids. My daughter was picked on and picked on by one child in particular. I complained, nothing. I complained, they moved classes. That day my daughter told me he was still picking on her, they were allowed to play on the playground together? C'mon, really? I would think of another child is hitting and spitting on my daughter they would take it more seriously. I questioned them about this boy, the response was his mom was going through a hard time and she wasnt surprised he was being bad. She tried to justify it to my face. Don't get me wrong, I get hard times. The fact that the people i paid way too much money too didn't care, pisses me off. I spent way too much money here for less then mediocre child care.

Over the years, our kids have been cared for by so many wonderful teachers who genuinely love and support the children in their classrooms. The staff has always been communicative, caring, and invested in helping each child grow academically, socially, and emotionally. One of the things we appreciate most is the consistency. From the baby room through the pre-K and kindergarten years, we've always felt confident that our children were safe, happy, and learning every day. The relationships they built with their teachers and friends have been incredibly meaningful. As working parents, having a daycare we can trust has been invaluable. We are grateful for the care, guidance, and memories our family has experienced here, and we would absolutely recommend this center to other families looking for a nurturing and reliable place for their children.

Our experience with Bridgemill KinderCare and the KinderCare corporate staff was abysmal at best!…read moreThe whole experience was a lot of smoke and mirrors, they would tell you what you wanted to hear but their actions didn't back that up. Example, telling me the hours and standards of care are going to get better and 1 hour later sending a notice to parents that school was canceled until further notice due to staffing shortages. The low customer service level aside, my 2 biggest issues were 1) learning that their staff is allowed to smoke during working hours as long as they're 25ft from the building. I learned of this policy after the director walked past me at 7:30am smelling like an ashtray. 2) my son has a medical condition that requires immediate adult intervention (no formal medical training is required for this intervention). After communicating this issue multiple times to various staff members and filling out a formal medical form to put in his file, we were informed by a KinderCare corporate employee that there was no one on the property that would be able to properly care for my son if he had an episode at that time. Childcare should be a reliable and safe places for our children. Unfortunately, falling short of those basic standards doesn't even begin to describe the standard of care you will receive from this facility.
