Goodard School at Apex caused a huge stress in our lives. One day, child protection service officer…read morecalled me that there is a complaint against me. As you can imagine, this was quite unsettling. I went through the interview patiently. I was told that the complaint was done by the Goddard School. The complaint was that I take walks with my younger child, without taking my elder child with me, and this was suspicious. I had been doing this for more than a year. So what had happened? What had happened a few days before that was that I had a disagreement with the director. The CPS officer, after satisfying herself by asking me all kind of questions, told me that they have received complaints like this in the past. Based on their feedbacks, they have realized that Goddard is very nice to the parents at the time of enrollment. A year or two after that, on any disagreement, they use one parent against the other. Or if they don't like something about you, they complain to the social service, on some pretext. By this time , the parents cannnot make the children go through a disruptive change, by changing the school. The school is obviously expert in human behavior, and has calculated this in its "art" of keeping the parents in check. The parents then start "working with" the school. She finally told me that the CPS service check is routine, and she will get back. The service was called off in about a month and a half. It was not actually called off. Only when I checked back with them, I received a mail stating "no services required". Needless to say, that month and a half, I was fighting with my own worst fears. I just prayed this to go away. I do not wish that this school happens to you.

(We have no family/grandparents here to babysit!) Our kids love being dropped here. The staff are warm and welcoming and there are usually a few other kids for ours to interact with. They always complain when we collect them and want to stay longer which is a good sign!

It can be difficult to nail down a babysitter these days, so we like to utilize these options when needed. We have only been once, but our son loved it. The girl working there at the time was super nice, and the place looked clean which is a definite plus! The location is convenient for those living in Fuquay or Holly Springs and the hours are great too. We used them for a Thursday evening and had no issues dropping or picking up our son! I prepaid for some hours ahead of time which I think is a great option that they offer. Since we have some hours still left, we definitely will be back!

This used to be called Carolina Kids but now it's Learning Tots Academy. The classrooms are very…read morebig but the class sizes are small compared to a lot of the other preschools around the area, so kids get a lot of room to play and aren't cramped in a noisy, crowded environment. The facility has 3 playgrounds outside, and an inside playground with a ball pit for rainy days. My son loved his time at Learning Tots, especially the water play days. He was very sad to move onto Kindergarten where they wouldn't have water play every week. He really misses all his friends and teachers from this preschool.

My child is still in the youngest class for now, but every staff member knows her by name and compliments her constantly. The staff is super sweet and nurturing, and we love the owners and director! I was referred here by a friend who's daughter has been here for years, and I'm so thankful for the recommendation. It's a great location on 55 in Cary near High House. And I love it because it's a 5 star school, but you can tell the children are there to be children and to have fun, while learning and being in a safe and clean environment. While we were searching for day cares, I kept touring all the corporately owned places like Primrose and Bright Horizons, you can tell they look good on paper, but the staff doesn't seem to work there because they're passionate about it. It's just a job to them. I love that Bright Beginnings is a smaller ratio classrooms, family owned by educators, conveniently located, and lastly SAFE school for my child. We will be here until Kindergarten!

That curriculum is amazing." My son loves his teachers and was so happy to see them again after vacation. He often says "I will tell my teachers about this." He is eager to please them. The Quality: the teachers know what they are doing. The kids jump around in the morning and sit quietly during lunch. It doesn't feel chaotic but under control, safe and calm. There are free and paid specials - free music and gym are free. There are also paid dance classes (Little People's Creative Workshop) and Soccer (Soccer shots). My son loves all of these and it's certainly convenient for us. My son has started really looking at books on his own, recognizing letters, writing letters etc. We are very happy with his progress and his teachers. They have a big screen in his class which they use for yoga, music, lessons etc. Value: It's not cheap, for sure. But many people don't know that religious-sponsored schools do not have to adhere to safety/quality standards which is one of the reasons why they are cheaper. My son is safe, happy and healthy in school. They provide meals but you can opt out if you'd like. They provide generally healthy options for kids and my son likes to eat there. It's a great school.

We had to pull our kid out unfortunately, but for personal reasons nothing to do with the daycare. We're very sad because we loved Ms Felicia in the infant room. There's an app to communicate with the teachers and to watch the video feed if you want to which came in handy when I wanted to see when I could get him if he was sleeping or not. I'm sad that when we are able to go back to daycare we won't be able to do it since they won't accept part time kids anymore. I can't vouch for the other rooms just the infant room but honestly the whole staff is really nice and welcoming.

Staff said it fell out his book bag. The staff did not care that I had to fight thru rush hour traffic after working a 16 hr shift just to double back for my son's belongings. Do better, people work too hard to have their belongings go missing. (His mom drops him off and I pick him up, idk what he arrives at the daycare with.)

He actually asks to go here instead of his regular preschool and talks about their range of trucks and toys. Truly a big indoor playground. It feels very safe and clean as well. I'm pretty fastidious and do my due diligence about any place I take my only child/pandemic baby, and we come here consistently at least once/month. Only drop-off place I trust and my child loves it. Thank you!

Before joining Magnolia Montessori, my daughter attended another daycare for about a year. In the…read morephotos and videos, she was always very quiet and mostly observing from far away instead of joining the other kids. She often seemed like the lonely child in the group. As a mom, it honestly broke my heart a little. I even asked the teachers to encourage her to get involved more, but she still seemed distant from her peers. But thankfully, everything changed as soon as she started at Magnolia Montessori. Her confidence grew so much. She became more comfortable talking with people, and she started making friends easily. The care and support they provide are truly priceless to our family. I truly cannot thank Miss Marie, Miss Shelly, and all the teachers enough for the love, patience, and support they gave my daughter. I'm beyond grateful for the positive impact they've had on her growth and happiness.

From lessons in sharing, English, math, and simply being a citizen of the world Magnolia has done a great job. Their facility is full of fun and educational materials. Every inch is meaningful utilized to spark learning and play. The team is top notch and has made our child feel seen, loved, and nurtured. We consider Ms. Marie and MS. Shelley to be superb educators and people we trust our daughter with. They are thoughtful, helpful, and kind.
