TLDR: Use as a last resort if location and cost override concerns, but follow suggestions at the…read moreend of review* *several 5 star google reviews from the past two years were written by staff *Corporate: don't bother copying and pasting the message to call the center director Choosing a childcare provider is one of the most important and stressful decisions you can make as a parent. Two years ago, we chose Childtime of Lilburn after touring several options in the Lilburn/Lawrenceville area. We based our decision on location and the recommendation of some local families. Here are some key issues: -High turnover, even by daycare standards: We had two kids who respectively moved from the toddler room through preschool and from preschool through Pre-K. The classrooms were a revolving door of teachers, which culminated in both Pre-K teachers (a lead teacher and support teacher) leaving in the middle of the 2025-2026 school year. Turnover created instability in the classrooms and disrupted learning. -Teacher quality: While we had some staff members who were truly caring and dedicated, we saw an overall decline in teacher quality during our two years at Childtime. We saw good teachers take initiative and attain additional early childhood credentials, only to not be retained when they sought better compensation. It was frustrating to see good teachers leave and be replaced by people who were inattentive and unengaging. -Lack of structure: Related to the previous point, diminished teacher quality led to poor classroom management. There was inconsistency in activities and schedules, and poor transitions to and from nap time. With lack of structure and boredom, we saw classrooms trend toward becoming more and more chaotic, which was an environment that was challenging for both of our children (our older child who was in Pre-K and our younger child who had transitioned to preschool as a 3 y/o). If your child does not do well with lack of structure and boredom then they might struggle at Childtime. Do not expect teachers and leadership to work collaboratively with you to support your child if they are struggling at Childtime. -Questionable inclusivity: While we did not perceive racial or ethnic bias and found the staff to be quite diverse, we did sense an underlying culture that was not supportive of nontraditional self-expression. If your child expresses themselves differently this may not be an environment where they feel protected from bullying and supported by the school. Why 2 stars and not 1 star? 1 star felt like it would be dismissive of the hard work and dedication of the good teachers we had at Childtime. It's too bad that many of them have left. We regret not leaving sooner. *Suggestions* 1. Monitor cameras: -the livestream (included in the price rather than being an add-on like at some other providers) is certainly an advantage, but do not assume that because the livestream exists that staff are doing what they are supposed to be doing. Check in at different times of day and call the front desk if you see that your child's class has become chaotic or notice other issues. 2. Check the Georgia DECAL inspection reports: The Georgia Dept of Early Care and Learning maintains a quality rating system of daycare providers (Childtime of Lilburn has 1 out of 3 stars; they are listed as Childtime Childcare #1102) and publish licensing and incident inspection reports. It would be wise to check the portal periodically and see what issues are arising, as these reports are not directly disclosed to families by Childtime. 3. Trust your instincts: If you notice red flags, bring them up to teachers and leadership. If you feel they are not being adequately addressed, leave.

As first-time parents, choosing a daycare for our baby was a huge decision, and my husband and I…read moretook our time touring multiple centers before making a choice. We can honestly say we're so glad we chose Kiddie Academy of Stone Mountain. What stood out to us right away was their commitment to quality care and a strong, structured curriculum. We were looking for a place where our son could not only be cared for, but also grow and develop through every stage until he reaches school-age and Kiddie Academy offers exactly that. The director and assistant director are very intentional about who they hire for each classroom, and it truly shows. The staff creates such a positive, nurturing environment, and we always feel confident leaving our baby in their care. Communication is also a big plus, there's always an open line, and we genuinely feel like we're working together as a team to support our son. While our primary experience is with the infant classroom, we've also had great interactions with the Pre-K teacher, she is amazing! It gives us peace of mind knowing that as our son grows, he'll continue to be in great hands. We also appreciate that they use the Life Essentials curriculum, which focuses on developmentally appropriate learning and helps build a strong foundation early on. Overall, we highly recommend Kiddie Academy to any parent looking for a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for their child.

Unbeknownst to me at the time, my child wrote her honest review about Color Wheel on Google Review…read more For a child to write a review of their own accord, unprompted by an adult, speaks volumes as to how traumatic her experience was. Instead of sharing my own awful direct experiences with the proprietor here on Yelp, I feel it is best to let my child's words do the "talking". She spent almost 2 years there in the M-F after school program. "It was an interesting experience I felt like not everyone was treated the same the owner is petty and does not treat a certain group of people well .she does not handle situations well.

I had a very disappointing experience with Code Ninjas…read more I enrolled my child in a 3-month bundle and made it clear in person before leaving that I would not be continuing beyond that period. At no point did I agree to an ongoing subscription. Despite this, my card was later placed on auto-billing without my consent, and I was charged nearly $1,000 after the agreed period ended. I have made multiple attempts to resolve this directly via email, and have received no response, which is extremely concerning from a business that was previously very responsive during enrollment. While their program seemed positive initially, the billing practices and lack of communication have been unacceptable. Families should be very cautious and ensure they fully understand (and document) any cancellation terms in writing. I am still seeking a resolution and refund for the unauthorized charges.
