My husband and I visited many daycare centers in our area and it was obvious which one was the…read morebest--Education Safari. It is a private facility, not part of a chain, and therefore any issue you have is addressed on-site, not by some corporate manager in another city. My kids began going to this center at 8 weeks of age and I have been nothing but pleased with their care. They now ride the after-school care bus and are 10 and 7 years old. That's a lot of experience with this center! There are days when I arrive to pick them up and am greeted by my child saying, "Aw Mom, do I have to leave now?" How often does that happen anywhere else? This staff takes the time to KNOW your child. As infants, I would receive daily reports on how much formula they ate, and even their diaper habits for that day. Now that they're older, I know that there is a homework hour where quiet time is observed and each child is expected to do their work. Teachers are there for any needed assistance. They stress creativity, MANNERS, respect, and community. I love the field trips they offer, especially during the breaks when it could get dull for an older child. We've been to the Atlanta Zoo, Stone Mountain, Turner Field, the World of Coke, and even Waffle House, I Spy Museum, and Atlanta Motor Speedway. The prices are reasonable and very comparable to any others you would find in this area. Discounts are given for multiple children enrolled in the center. You also get "vacation" weeks during the year with decreased tuition if your family is out of town. I never feel pressured or intimidated when I approach a staff member or the owners and directors. Please visit this place and see for yourself what you think of these great folks. I'm sure my kids will be one of the smiling ones.

I ran the 5K it was a great run through the community and back to the Y. I did not hang around for the 10AM ceremony but I walked around and checked out the vendors. Great food, music and people. I did check out the entrance of the Y during check in yesterday but didn't do a full tour. From what I observed, it's well maintained. Equipment, Restrooms and lobby were clean. I can say they will need a new building soon as the town is growing . I plan to run next year for the same race and possibly other races throughout the year.

Yes, it's small and could definitely use an expansion to accommodate the growth Covington is going through and attract more people. The core/stretching area could use a little bit of love, maybe a fresh coat of paint, reorganizing and some new mats. However, the showers and restrooms are the cleanest of any Y I have ever been in (and I've seen quite a few) the gym area is clean, they have a good selection of equipment which is well maintained, and have plenty of classes. The gym floor/cardio area is never too crowded. The staff are friendly and polite, and I have been very pleased with the quality of their childcare. A solid 4 out of 5 stars!

THIS SCHOOL DISCRIMINATES AGAINST DISABLE CHILDREN ---On the morning of August 8, I spoke with Ms…read more Laura and the infant room teacher, Ms. Shanane, regarding my 1 year old son arriving later than usual, around 11:00 a.m., due to a possible low-grade fever. I explained that I wanted to ensure he was not exhibiting any symptoms of illness before bringing him into daycare, to avoid any risk of exposing other children and staff. Upon arrival, I was told that my son late entry had disrupted the classroom routine. I acknowledged their concern but explained that my decision was based on a valid health consideration. Despite my explanation, Ms. Laura proceeded to make several inappropriate remarks. She stated that my son's need for additional care was due to his disabilities, implying that this made him an inconvenience to both herself and the classroom teacher. She further claimed that she had missed her lunch because she was assisting with feeding in my son's classroom. These statements were discriminatory, unprofessional, and contrary to the principles of inclusivity and equal treatment expected of a licensed childcare provider. Later that same day, I was informed that my son was being removed from the program. This decision appears to be directly connected to my earlier concerns and the accommodations my son requires, which constitutes discrimination Laura may convince you to enroll your child, but doing so would be a serious mistake. She conducts herself unprofessionally, and I regret not recognizing the warning signs sooner. If you truly value your children's well-being, I strongly urge you NOT to enroll them here. Update- I was informed via phone call after hours that my son could not return to the program--without any prior warnings--another clear sign of retaliation based on my feedback. In addition, my 3-year-old daughter attended a single test day because the PRE-K 3 class lacked a structured curriculum. I expressed my disappointment, and Ms. Laura and I agreed my daughter could try the daycare for a day to see if it was a good fit. However, during the same call in which I was told my son could no longer attend, I was also informed that they intended to charge me two weeks' tuition. I had to correct Ms. Laura and another representative, reminding them that I had already paid $50 for the test day. This was yet another attempt by the establishment to retaliate against me for sharing my honest feedback. Updated: The owner's reply below is a clear attempt to deflect from the real issue. My child was discriminated against because of his disability. After just one day of arriving after 9 a.m. due to a possible illness, I was told my son could no longer return--without any prior warning or history of issues. Here's the full timeline: * Monday: My son arrived at 8:00 a.m., but I was informed his teacher would not arrive until 8:30 a.m. I chose to stay until she arrived because otherwise my son--who is not walking--would have been placed in a room with older children, which is unsafe. * Tuesday: I arrived at 8:30 a.m. to ensure his teacher was present before leaving him. * Wednesday & Thursday: My son had therapy appointments, which had been discussed and disclosed before enrollment, so he arrived after 11:00 a.m. both days. * Friday: My son arrived later than usual due to a possible illness. Once I confirmed he was well, I brought him to school. Despite this reasonable and pre-discussed schedule, my son was removed from the program entirely--clear retaliation rooted in discrimination against his disability. if the owner really cared she would have reached out for details before replying.
