After 2.5 years at TLA South, we decided to move our son to another daycare, and looking back, I…read morewish we had made the decision much sooner. The best thing this center has going for it is the new Director, Stephanie. Unfortunately, our experience with Executive Director Simmie (who also happens to be the daughter of the owners) was consistently disappointing. When we raised concerns, we often felt dismissed, and communication was poor. Instead of feeling like our concerns were heard or addressed, we left many conversations feeling frustrated. Another ongoing frustration was there was rarely anyone available at the front of the building during morning drop-off. When we first started attending, there was someone at the desk but toward the end there was never administration present in the morning. The teachers were tucked away in their rooms but no one in the front of the building - raising safety concerns. If parents had a question, concern, or needed to communicate something important about their child, there often wasn't anyone there to speak with. It gave the impression that parent communication was simply not a priority. One of our concerns was that the primary afternoon teacher had difficulty communicating with us in English. We found this challenging, especially when discussing our son's day and developmental progress. When we raised this concern, we did not feel it was taken seriously by Simmie. In contrast, Stephanie acknowledged that this communication barrier was a significant issue and recognized the impact it had on families. We appreciated that she listened and understood why it mattered. We also repeatedly asked for support with potty training and were told it would be addressed, but we never saw a consistent plan implemented. The classroom itself appeared to have a limited selection of older toys, and we saw very little evidence of structured educational activities or curriculum. Our son frequently came home with reports of scratches, hitting, and other incidents involving classmates. While occasional incidents happen in any daycare, the frequency became concerning to us and ultimately contributed to our decision to leave. The difference since changing schools has been remarkable. In just two weeks at his new center, our son has been happier, more engaged, and thriving. Every family's experience may be different, but based on ours, I encourage parents to thoroughly explore all of their childcare options before making a decision.

We feel so fortunate to have found this daycare for our daughters, our youngest started at age…read morethree. From the very beginning, the level of care and attention has been far beyond what you typically expect from a childcare center. The owner, Shaheen, has created a place that is not only safe and nurturing for children but also supportive for families as a whole. Her commitment shows in everything she does--from the long hours she personally puts in, to the thoughtful way she vets her staff to ensure they are truly the right fit for the children. You can tell she sets very high standards, and it shows in how kind, patient, and skilled every teacher is. What makes this daycare stand out is the way the programs are designed not just for the children's growth, but also to equip parents with the tools and confidence to support their kids at home. That kind of holistic approach is rare, and it has made such a positive difference for our family. Shaheen goes above and beyond in every sense. She has built a place where children are truly seen, supported, and encouraged, and where parents feel like partners in the process. We're so grateful for everything this daycare has done for our family, and we can't recommend it enough.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this Kindercare. My children have been attending for…read moreover six years, and throughout that time, the level of care, compassion, and genuine love shown by the staff has been nothing short of exceptional. From the leadership team to the classroom teachers, every person plays a role in creating a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment for the children. They have consistently been accommodating, understanding, and attentive not only to my children's needs, but to our family as a whole. It brings me incredible peace of mind knowing my children are in a place where they are valued, protected, and encouraged to grow. Simply put, I trust them with my children's lives, and that trust has been earned time and time again.

I scheduled a tour for my 2-year-old daughter, joined by her sister and father, but it turned out…read moreto be a terrible experience. The assistant director didn't speak to us, seemed dry, and acted like our presence made her uncomfortable. When we asked questions, she barely responded, which felt odd. Right away, I knew this wasn't the place for us. The only pleasant person was Ms. Wyniferd, who gave us the tour, was polite, and answered all our questions. Aside from her, the daycare itself seemed nice, but the assistant director's attitude gave me a bad feeling. Honestly, I'm glad she acted that way--it made my decision easy. A director should always communicate warmly and greet visitors. Why would I leave my child with someone in charge who's rude? It makes me wonder how my child would be treated when I'm not around.

When your five-year-old can tell you about the parts of the brain, or name all of the continents, you know they are learning more than they would in any daycare facility. The teachers are certified to teach and have been with the school longer than your children have been alive. There is not much turnover, which was a huge selling point when we transferred to Brookstone Montessori. My kids have been sick less and cared for more, and there isn't the daycare drama that comes with this facility. It is nice to know that they are cared for in an academic sense, but they are also learning practical life skills. My youngest amazes me each day with the new things she comes home telling me. I am so happy we came to this school and have a second family.

I had an outside person come in to observe who witnessed teachers humiliating my 3 year old (stopping him, calling attention to the entire class, and having him make a public apology) for a minor and accidental incident. Overall, they are very inauthentic, rude, and disrespectful. The owner is a Doctor who expects a child experiencing grief and loss to make strides of change in an environment that fosters hostility, which is a completely unreasonable and unrealistic request.

My first child to attend PV is reading at a middle school level thanks to the incredible teachers who have become like family to us. While no two children are alike, both their teachers worked through challenges with incredible patience and communication. There have been many instances over the years where teachers and administrators alike have gone above and beyond the call of duty to help, even taking a lunch box that belonged to my elementary school child to his school when I accidentally mixed them up. It is our last year at parkview and it saddens me. I will forever be grateful for the amazing academic advantage they have given both of my children and the emotional intelligence to be kind and empathetic.

Hey! I'm the first one to review this school! Heck YES!…read more I have been a Bascomb Mom for 10 years. Both of my boys have gone there. My youngest one is still there. The reason why I felt that I needed to review this school is for all of the out-of-town people looking to move into a community because of the schools. Look no further... you've found your new home! Coming from Florida in 2006, we moved to Woodstock pretty much blindly. My husband was relocated so there was really no choice. We looked at 40 homes in 2 days! We looked from Canton to Roswell. The house we have lived in for the past 10 years was the FIRST house that we toured! Funny huh??!! I did a TON of research on schools when I was still in Florida. Greatschools.net was a Godsend! When touring our home I was able to speak to the homeowner for a brief moment. I told her that we were thinking of sending our kids to the local private schools. Her exact words were "WHY??" She continued to tell me that Bascomb Elementary School was all and more. In the past 10 years I have met some of the most wonderful, caring teachers that I could hope for. If you have a special needs child they take great care in making sure that they have exactly what they need to succeed! It does take a bit for you to be "accepted" by the front office staff LOL. I had been going for years and felt that they were a bit put off any time that I needed assistance. What I later found was these women work as hard as the teachers! They deal with CRAZY parents (insert my name) on a constant basis. Among the great teachers they have the BEST NURSE IN THE WORLD! Nurse Jamie is an angel! My son actually likes to make trips to the clinic on a weekly basis (little flirt!). But for real, I have never seen a nurse take such care. When my older son had been in the clinic, she called me and gave me his temp, OXYGEN LEVEL, and so on! WHAT??? That's just insane! But so needed from us working moms that cant jump every time our kid has a splinter. Bascomb is a great school. My husband and I are so thankful that our kids have been able to go through a great Elementary School experience.
