I would strongly discourage anyone from sending their child to Sunbrook Academy. I apologize for…read morethe long review but want other parents to be warned and understand our experience so that they can make an informed decision about where they send their children, especially infants. While our son only attended the school for a total of 8 hours, it has been nothing but less than favorable interactions from the initial drop off. When my husband and I arrived to drop our son off, the assistant director was on what sounded like a personal telephone call discussing another parent complaining about her. After waiting there for 5 minutes, she got off the phone, and did not know who we were or why we were there. We explained it was our son's first day and we were there to drop off. She walked us to our son's classroom where we met his teacher. Walking into the room, there was a single teacher getting bottles ready while 5 infants sat on the other side of the gate area, several of which were whining/crying. Most of the lights were off and the room is crowded and dark. The teacher said hello to me and my husband and asked me about our son's feeding/sleeping routine. We asked if we could help set him up in the room, which they allowed. At no point during this interaction did anyone say hello or welcome our son. We ultimately left him in the room playing with toys while the teacher continued to get the other children their food. Not once did we see her, or anyone, acknowledge our son before leaving. It was so discomforting that both my husband and I considered walking back into the room and taking our son home right then. I reported this to the director that morning around 10:00am. She apologized for the experience, explained it was an off morning and that she would talk with the assistant director as well as the teacher. When we picked up our son at 11:30am, he was exhausted, and had clearly been crying a lot. Upon our son's return to school, the second drop off was better. The following week, our son attended his third and final day at school. When I returned to pick up my son, the school director, Michelle, was also in the room and the teacher was holding my son sleeping. They informed me that my son had hurt himself while crawling, resulting in a bloody lip and scratched nose. On my car ride home, I called the school and asked to speak with Michelle director about what had occurred so that I could understand better. Beth, the assistant director, explained that Michelle was on a tour so I asked that she give me a call back after the tour. After two days and five telephone calls/voicemails, I finally was able to get in touch with the school director. At no point did anyone return my phone call or call to see why my son was absent after an incident at the school. The incident itself was not an issue, as I know babies will get hurt as they learn to crawl and walk but it was how the school handled things following the incident that was the problem. Sunbrook Academy advertises itself as a safe and nurturing place for your baby to receive loving care and learning experiences. The Infant Care Program is committed to making the first transition away from home natural and easy for both child and parent. Our experience was anything but that. After several weeks of back and forth with the regional director or Cadence, I was finally able to review the video of the incident involving my son. It was as described but the whole ordeal left me very disappointed in the school and how they care for children. I unfortunately have heard more horror stories about this school over the last few weeks and had I known any of this prior to enrolling our son, I would never have let him attend this school.

They get playground time twice a day & are constantly updating kid reports with fun pictures so I know exactly what they're doing and when. Love Sunbrook and so happy to be a part of their team!

It has only been a month or so into the school year and I cannot say enough about this place. The teachers we have are just the best you can imagine. They care so much for the kids they have in the class. The administration is exactly the same. One day my daughter was sent home early from not feeling well and I had to call in the next day because she still didn't feel well. They new exactly who she was the second I mentioned her name! There are a lot of kids there so that was pretty impressive in my book. If you are looking to send you children to GA Pre K I highly recommend this place. If I was tortured to the brink of death to criticize this place I would have to say it is the parking. That lot is terrible but from what I hear they are stuck with it as they rent it from the shopping mall they are behind. I totally ignore it since their awesomeness overshadows that tiny issue.

At first, we were very skeptical when it comes to choosing the perfect school/daycare for our first child to attend. We wanted to make sure that we chose the perfect school the first time. As you can imagine this involves thorough research and interviews with multiple schools. After visiting five other schools in the area, Primrose of Wade Green was our last stop... literally. We were just amazed with the level of education, service and support that was offered to the children AND the parents. The facility is extremely clean and well kept. I love the fact they start teaching sign language to infants, this really helped our son communicate with us without frustration. For first time parents, they were very helpful, and made us feel very comfortable with a strong sense of security. Also, I have to admit, our child eats better than we do at Primrose of Wade Green. They knock it out of the park when it comes to nutrition, and we receive a weekly menu! One of my favorite perks has to be the surprise emails. Throughout the day, Primrose staff takes many pictures of all the beautiful children and on occasion they email us photos of our child enjoying his day...what a treat! Everyone at Primrose makes an effort to bond with your child and they are determined to make sure the kids are always happy. In closing, we love Primrose and make sure to tell everyone about our experience. I cannot imagine ever going to another school/daycare for my childcare needs. Thanks for being superb PRIMROSE of WADE GREEN!!

I'm not a difficult parent. I'm the mom in the messy bun and yoga pants who trusted the people she…read moreleft her kids with. We enrolled both our sons at this Discovery Point, location #43, including our youngest, who was twenty-two months old and couldn't yet tell us about his day; my adult stepson handled most of the pickups, and he is as agreeable as they come. We were also, in those same weeks, grieving -- we'd just had to put our family dog of nearly 18 years down. Try explaining "all dogs go to heaven" to a sad toddler before school. The center expelled our toddler on a single afternoon's notice -- no meeting, no warning, by email. Its own behavior policy promises a parent conference and a plan before it ever comes to that. We got neither. Days later, in writing, the company told us both that his behavior was serious enough to remove him the same day and that it had offered to let him return for the rest of that week. Both of those cannot be true. The records the center pointed to were kept in an app it had repeatedly told families was malfunctioning, and that I was locked out of for months before he was removed. Within a single two-week stretch, those records listed my son as three different ages, though he had been attending for nearly a year. On billing, the center's own director admitted in writing -- more than once -- that there were errors, and only issued some corrections. Then, weeks after expelling my son, the center asked every family to sign a revised disenrollment policy -- one that now reserves the right to 'immediately disenroll the child with no notice' and to 'terminate services for inappropriate behavior of parents or guardians.' Prospective parents should read that twice. I am not writing this in anger. A daycare holds something irreplaceable: very young children who cannot speak for themselves, and the trust of the families who leave them there. We were an easy family to be honest with, and we would have worked with them. Instead, the paperwork mattered more than the child -- and even the paperwork could not keep its story straight. I hope this helps the next family ask the questions we did not know to ask.
