Primary Student/Teacher ratio: 19 to 1 + 1 assistant teacher for ages 3-6 years. Classroom clean…read moreand organized. Centers appropriately placed. Independence and peer interaction highly encouraged. At minimum, a 2-year commitment for your child to learn the Montessori Method. I did notice the classroom environment was very "sterile". Lacks academic and visual stimulation. No alphabets or numbers on the wall, even a lack of seasonal focus. I heard from another parent whose child is currently enrolled in the primary class that the teacher is not proactive in offering solutions to help your child succeed in the classroom. It was frustrating to her because she's paying them to educate her child, and to work with her on how she could get her child up to par within the school's standards. Perhaps the teacher lacks training in offering solutions because I get the sense that the school Director is "limited" by her views and conforms to the Montessori tradition. If you plan on enrolling your child in the Fayette County public schools system when he enters kindergarten, you better look for a different preschool. The reason why you moved into this county was for the excellent public schools right? Fayette County has a reputation for being an affluent and educated county. The public school educators here will challenge your child to thrive socially & academically. And the best way to do that is to get your child enrolled in a traditional preschool with a focus on academics (your child will also get play time ) and will teach your child from the very beginning to write his first & last name; familiar with and recognize the sounds of the alphabet, recognize numbers 1-20 and count up to 100; recognize at least 20 sight words (current Fayette County kindergarteners must recognize at least 130 sight words by January); familiar with colors; comfortable using a pair of scissors safely; ability to sit for at least 15 minutes during circle or story time; and demonstrate good listening skills, that's just to name a few. If you DO NOT want your child in a preschool that focuses on academics, and would like to have this Montessori school teach him "reality based" life skills like cleaning, organizing, gardening and collaborating with friends, then this is the place!

I wanted to share my experience regarding my daughter and granddaughters. First, parents are…read moreallowed to drop their children off in the morning, but we are not allowed to go inside to pick them up. That seems a little odd and can make parents feel uncomfortable, as if something is being hidden. The final straw for me was when my 1-year-old granddaughter came home with a bite mark, and the school could not explain how it happened or who was involved. That is very concerning. In the 3-year-old classroom, it also seems like the teachers may not be properly trained. Children are being sent home with multiple reports for things as minor as playing by themselves in a corner. I understand that children can get sick in daycare, but these poor kids have had almost every illness possible -- RSV, pink eye, strep throat, and hand, foot, and mouth disease. This has happened multiple times, not just once. Parents, please be careful and pay close attention to your children's experiences here also parents that are seeking run!

My child was enrolled from March 24, 2025 to September 5, 2025. During that five month time frame…read moremy child had 7 different teachers. At that turnover rate, my child had more teachers than classmates. There was one teacher who was there four out of the five month stint that my child and me absolutely loved! We were there solely because of her. When she resigned, I was truly heartbroken and knew that our experience there would not be the same in her absence. That very same day I put my child back on the waitlist at another facility. It was great Kiddie Kove welcomed and accepted all kids. From my observations they adhered to the teacher to student required ratio. An area of improvement is that if there is a special needs student in a classroom, then there should be an additional teacher in the classroom. I witnessed countless times where a teacher would spend significant time attempting to redirect a child, and another child would get hurt or briefly get into mischief. On 9/3/25 I witnessed this constraint and a child fell twice over a toy vacuum while the teacher was changing a diaper and verbally trying to redirect a special needs child with no success. Exactly 30mins after witnessing this, I received a call stating my child had fell and had a cut lip. The daycare center provides a clean environment. It is in a relatively newly built church that was not specifically designed for a daycare. Because of this, there are no preventative security controls to prevent random people from entering the building during pick up and drop off times. I had a very detailed conversation with the directors about this and was told 'that is a valid concern, but the Elders of the church won't agree to proposed solutions'. I do want to note that the director did suggest me unenrolling my child as a first option. The directors decided to have someone sit on the inside near the entry door; however in my opinion this still would not prevent unauthorized access into the building nor prevent them for accessing the classrooms. More than half of the time when someone was suppose to be sitting near the door, they weren't there or halfway down the hall on the phone or reading a book. Daily schedules included tv time, story time, art projects, music, limited outdoor/gym play, and basic introduction to numbers and letters. There was a $50 charge for Spanish learning which entailed a pre-recorded video being played of a teacher teaching Spanish. Personally, I didn't understand why it was charged separately; if a pre-recorded video was the approach to teach Spanish then I'm not understanding how it differs from other You-Tube videos that could be played teaching Spanish. It was also advertised on their website that extra-curricular activities included dance and martial arts, these activities did not occur during our enrollment period. There is no consistent framework of criteria communicated to parents regarding milestones a child must meet to advance to the next level up classroom. My experience was that my child was in the younger-ones classroom and I had to specifically request my child be moved to the older-ones class (my child was 19 months at the time). During our five months of enrollment, there were no conference or forums that allowed routine direct interactions between parents and directors. The directors did not appear to be there daily as I may have seen them once or twice a month. When I brought this to their attention towards the end of my enrollment period they asked what would I suggest. In response, I suggested that it would be nice if they were there during one of the 2hr pickup or drop-off window. Their response was 'That's not going to happen. I have other things to do.' Their uniforms are $24 per shirt. This is an insane markup when polo shirts are less than $5. My child was 19 months at the time, so the shirts weren't even the right size. My opinion is that the uniform requirement was simply a money-grab tactic based on the ridiculous mark-up and the fact that the official school year had already been in session a full month so why wasn't it communicated to all parents before the school year began. My overall review of Kiddie Kove is this daycare fits the capitalistic mold that many of the for-profit daycares in South Fulton where directors exploit the necessity of childcare and exploit the labor of teachers. Based on all the facts mentioned, I am convinced the directors do not run the daycare based on genuine love for children but primarily the financial gain. The high turnover rate I witnessed at this facility has much accountability that should be acknowledged at the director level. Kiddie Kove has one of the highest tuition rates in the area. I have experienced a non-profit daycare with a tuition rate that is 27% lower, have more than adequate preventative security, longer operation hours, teacher longevity, directors who are ACTIVELY involved with all students DAILY, and much more.

If you are looking for a childcare center this solely for babysitting, this is a great choice. The…read morecurrent director, assistant director, and core teachers are dedicated to children. Yet, the management (owners) or lack of management's knowledge is the issue. They are not educators. In the more than six months that my child attended several things occurred that you should be WARNED about: 1) tuition increased $84 with no written communication. Emails were sent stating a 25 dollar increase a week. I was told that did not pertain to me no increase I was a new parent , only to find out in the portal of the increase. The director gravely resolved but the owner never responded to my request for a meeting regarding the issue. 2) No curriculum. The owner might say a team was brought in but you will never get a newsletter with academic focus for the week, no benchmark assessment or weekly activities. Lessons are on the wall but you can't have academics with inconsistent staffing. Some classes like the two years are so big you need small groups for instruction. 3) Staffing is a major issue. Some classes have consistent teachers others not so much. You will drop your child off to people you know and pick your child up to people you have never seen. Its so bad teachers in the room won't know the children's names 4) BUT THE WORST INCIDENT --- I went to drop my child off and it was 9:15. Since coming to the center the 9:00 cut off has not been implemented. I was met at the door without any communication from management and told we could not enter. I had a meeting as many other working parents, I was late. I had to take my child back home despite not being told about a policy before hand. I am not sure why you would take your child to a place that is punitive to parents --the customer. It boggles my mind that the people I pay could not have resolved an issue or implemented a policy more effectively. THIS IS NOT A PLACE FOR WORKING PARENTS--- NO CURRICULUM , CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND PUNITIVE TO CLIENT. Please know my review is as a parent and early childhood professional with 3 degrees.
