We were nervous about taking him out of a program he was so familiar with. But due to the amazing teachers and administration at Vinings Academy, he adjusted so quickly. Most of the teachers have been there for years and years and are so sweet and caring and do such a great job making learning fun. They teach the children different languages and it has been so adorable having the kids come home and sing songs in Spanish to us. This past year with COVID has been so crazy but finding Vinings Academy has been wonderful.

During good weather, they made sure to take the kids out most of the day. My daughter learned so much. They have a curriculum for the kids and a calendar for parents to follow and check daily lessons. Ms. Drifa was so amazing and patient with my little one. Ms. Jeena, the director, is extremely accommodating and a beautiful person inside and out. I never had any safety issues or concerns. The center is very clean and spacious for the kids and gives off a homey environment. They made sure to update me with pictures, videos and notes throughout the day. My kid is a very picky eater and they allowed me to pack lunches for her as well. Unfortunately, I had to unenroll my child due to personal events, but given the opportunity, I would 100% enroll her again.

The staff was so welcoming and caring and it really felt like each day we were taking him to our family member's home to be cared for. Our son has been at Oxford Babies for 2 years now and we've moved out of the area -- saying goodbye to this amazing team was hard for us and for them (lots of tears between us on the last day!) They really loved our son as we have. They have watched him grow, helped us through many of those crazy stages in the first few years, and have felt like a team of second moms to my husband and I. The Oxford Babies staff truly cares about each of the children there. We have watched our son grow tremendously under their care and I cannot say enough good things about them!

Being first time parents, we felt extremely comfortable leaving our little girl in the care of wonderful, sweet and compassionate teachers. We like the smaller ratio of teachers to babies versus other schools. The price was also a big plus compared to others in the area, like Primrose. Our daughter loves going to school every day and all of the teachers love on our daughter by teaching her everyday. We are so blessed to have found Oxford!

I would not recommend this school under any circumstances.

When we arrived to pick up our belongings they were left outside the door. The entire experience felt cold and unempathetic, and it was clear that the well-being of the children was not a priority. We wanted to share our experience in hopes of saving others from going through the headache we endured. In hindsight, it was probably the best thing that happened to us. As no parent wants their child in an unsafe environment.

Buckhead Prep SMV is absolutely amazing. It is definitely a hidden gem of Smyrna. Our daughter…read morehas been attending this school since she was 18 months old and now she's 5 and is getting ready to start Kindergarten at one of the top private schools in Georgia. It is a very academically driven school and we loved every bit of it. The teachers are very hands-on and they actually CARE and take time to work with the kids and it shows. To name a few, Ms. Carol and Ms. Carmen has taught her to be the smartest, sweetest, and most well-behaved kid from the start. Now, Ms. Jordan and Ms. Kelly has her well prepared for the next level. Everyday our daughter impresses us with what she has learned and is very excited to go back to school day after day. You wouldn't believe how many compliments we get when we're out, about how smart, polite, and well mannered she is. We definitely owe a large part of that to this school and its incredible how she stands out amongst other kids of her age. Believe me, you will definitely be able to tell the difference. This school has an excellent track record for success. Just about every kid of her graduating class was accepted to their first pick private school. Ms. Tammy and Ms. Kirsten's vision is very focused and their recipe for success is impressive. The kids are surrounded by other great kids, so you can imagine the atmosphere of this school. The environment is very clean, bright, and most importantly, safe. There is an armed SWAT, police officer who is ALWAYS on duty when they are inside the school and especially along with them when they are outside. It definitely makes us feel better. Bottomline, this is a great school for early childhood academic development and we highly recommend Buckhead Prep SMV.

My children have been at The Goddard School Austell since September 2018 and I can't imagine taking…read morethem anywhere else. After moving to this part of Atlanta recently, I was amazed at the cost/waitlist/class size of many daycares in the area. I "interviewed" several places and was starting to question whether or not I was going to find a place that I felt comfortable taking my kids to everyday. The Goddard School Austell is the same place my niece and nephew went 8 years ago and without question is the best! Mrs. Lauren was immediately warm and welcoming inviting us in to see this "family feel" preschool. She is always open for conversation, empathetic, real, transparent and a parent herself. She employs a staff that also models those qualities. If we have ever had a concern about our children (potty training, bottle weaning, tantrums etc)... they are all there to assist, work with us and ultimately foster love, patience, knowledge and kindness in our babies! They have a curriculum that is followed and emailed monthly. Daily reports are sent out over a phone app making it easy to check in on the kids each day. Healthy breakfasts and catered (healthy) lunches are provided each day, along with snacks in between. They have nice playgrounds that the kids love playing on when it is nice outside and a large open gym to run around in when it is raining or too cold to be outside, with a built in rock climbing wall, what?! Along with the day-to-day activities, they are always doing special things around the holidays for the kids/parents (Christmas program, Easter egg hunt, Valentines, etc). I honestly could go on and on about all the ways The Goddard School Austell is a phenomenal daycare... but most importantly, I don't have to question what type of care my little ones are getting. I know in my absence they are being loved, nurtured, comforted and allowed to grow, learn and explore in a warm and caring environment...every day. I will not take them anywhere else and will be very sad when they have to leave. Thank you all at Goddard Austell!
