This school is over all pretty awesome. I have two daughters that have attended here for about 3…read moreyears now. I've never had any issues with the teachers or parents aside from the occasional fight or two that all kids get in as they grow up. Security here is A1 as well. You have to pass Biometrics and then a separate door with a passcode on a keypad. They do pick up from about 5 or 6 schools around West Knoxville and my daughters happened to go to one of those so that is very convenient. They have a specifically labeled bus. They also have a pretty cool summer program for kindergarteners and above filled with field trips and educational items. It is conveniently located and off the street of Kingston Pike in the Farragut area so anyone in West Knoxville will be happy. I definitely recommend this to any parent looking for a place but I know they are rarely free and always filled up which I suppose is a good thing. Kids won't stop and neither will this staff. The head director is pretty involved and asks me what we are doing daily and I know you don't always get that from staff at a childcare location. Highly recommend

They told us we could have our son come in the fall with no specific date and I called and the director was always on a bus route or not in office with no call back. I called in spring no answer and now it is almost end of summer and I just want my money back. We did not get a spot nor would I send my kid to this facility. I have now spoke with the director twice this week but she keeps blowing me off saying she need to speak to admin or name isn't in there database and it's always "I'll call you tomorrow." They have probably spent my money and this is ridiculous!!

Thank you to all who have worked there over the years assisting in caring for my child.

I wish that there was a way to leave a less than one star review on here. I sent my son here after…read morehe had previously attended a very well run daycare in Downtown Knox, but had to transfer him to a West Knox care facility when we moved.. He showed up a bright eyed, well behaved, and happy little boy - and left a year later constantly crying because he didn't want to go to school, coming home with bruises and scratch marks, and apologizing to me most nights because everyone called him a "bad kid". NO THREE YEAR OLD SHOULD EVER FEEL THE WAY THEY HAVE MADE MY CHILD FEEL. If you want to send your child to a care center that smells like dirty diapers constantly because they only change the trash once a day, or forces your child to pee with the door open so a classroom full of kids can see, feeds kids lunches out of cans everyday, and only allows children (2) half hour recess sessions a day - even on the most beautiful of days - then this is definitely the place for you. Oh, did I mention that they won't provide you with tax documents, or accept any payments other than cash/check? No camera's in the facility or classrooms either. No locks on the doors. Anyone can walk in at any time. This care facility is truly something out of my worst nightmare based sometime in the early 80's. There's a huge lack of mental stimulation needed to help children in their most impressionable stages, and they are forced to, instead, find ways to entertain themselves in small, dark, and dingy classrooms where they are playing with toys that are mostly broken and contribute next to nothing to their cognitive development. If you're looking for good, reliable, and educationally challenging care for your child in the West Knox area - I highly suggest you continue looking elsewhere. Any questions about my experience here? Feel free to DM me, I'd love to share.

I was not at all excited to have our daughter (3 mos at the time) in any infant care program, but…read moreher mother and I both work full-time. We checked-out four different facilities and decided on Cedar Bluff Play School. We've been quite pleased since day one and don't regret our decision one bit. The staff and owners are very personable and are absolutely great with little ones. Our daughter couldn't be happier to see the CBPS folks when we drop her off and that means a lot as a parent. As for the gal who left a 1 star review...well, you can't make everyone happy. And, as I mentioned above, we looked at several different facilities before deciding on CBPS. 1 Star?! Yeah, right. No way! Young children have dirty diapers that have to be changed, but I've never smelled dirty diapers at CBPS. They're there somewhere, but I haven't stumbled upon them or their scent. Feeding kids out of cans?! They have a kitchen and the meals are cooked daily. In fact, the owners make sure there are plenty of supplies so that children get all they want to eat. (No kid is going hungry on their watch). Kids forced to entertain themselves in small, dark and dingy classrooms w/broken toys?! I don't know where this lady had her child, but it wasn't the CBPS our girl attends... You're not going to find a better group of people to care for your children. These folks are fantastic!

More than one student had to receive attention for heat exhaustion. Only one instructor for 17 students who will expect you to be a pro after the first explanation of anything. Thinks it's funny to yell "REACT" at you will you are trying to drive for the first time even though you won't get any 1 on 1 time or any explanation as to what REACT actually means, but it sure does conjure up some good ole laughs. You get 30 min for lunch, he takes an hour while you bake outside waiting. Accommodations are a joke and a health hazard as well. Black mold all in the air ducts, bacteria infested bathrooms. Dead bugs on the floor appliances that haven't been cleaned or maintained for years. They won't even provide toilet paper or trash bags even though they are making 3,200\mo off of students being housed there in a roach motel that wouldn't even qualify for Gov. housing! They actually have the nerve to call it a "Condo" so you don't even consider alternatives. Taylor the so called "director" who couldn't manage her way out of a wet paper sack will let you know just how much of a burden you are if you even think of complaining. The woman who conducts the drug test for the DOT has no business in a clinical setting. Who handles men's urine with no gloves and without washing her hands in between? Keep your eye on your containers cause she isn't going to. Not sure why they have to go to Orlando for testing. Your second container will be no good if there are any problems. Barry, mister athletic shorts and flip flops, school owner will coach you to lie on your DOT application making sure he is standing in the camera blind spot while doing so. "Don't tell the DOT anything about your health, even if it's true", "check NO on line 31 no matter what" cause elsewise I'll have to dismiss you and lose the $8,000 you represent. SHOP AROUND

Unfortunately, the Easter Bunny didn't notice it was missing a few important parts! That's how we found Knoxville Fine Violin , and what started as a random Google search turned into such a wonderful experience. Knoxville Fine Violin is a family-owned shop, and the owner was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and welcoming. He patiently answered all of our questions and even connected us with a children's violin teacher. Best of all, he was able to fix the Easter Bunny's mistake and get my daughter's violin ready to play! Side note -- my daughter absolutely loved the owner and his shop. When we went to pick up her violin today, she insisted on drawing him a picture before we left. That alone says so much about the kindness we experienced there. Whether you're interested in music yourself or your child is wanting to try something new, I highly recommend Knoxville Fine Violin. It truly is a hidden gem tucked away in Knoxville.

I am just starting to learn about playing and Wyatt the luthier was so nice and patient with me today. He answered all my questions and showed me all kinds of different options. They have everything from rentals to high end stuff. They even make custom made violins. He showed me the wood blocks and how they book match the back of the violin or do a one piece back. It was a lot of fun to see everything and I learned a lot. There wasn't a big push to buy (although I did buy some things before I left). The prices are reasonable and the quality and selection was better than any place around. They have a selection of strings, cases and bows, as well as other books and maintenance items. They have multiple luthiers for repairs, too. If you play, go check out the shop. It's downtown near the Tennessee Theater. Great atmosphere and great customer service. Thank you, Wyatt! I will be back again.

They pumped my tank in March 2023 and then came back to replace a pump in November of 2023. They are very kind and polite but Ronnie Sr. and his worker Wesley definitely took advantage of my lack of septic system knowledge and charged me $800 to put a plastic pump (most likely a $30 pump from Harbor Freight) in my tank, using the wrong size PVC piping, leaving it hanging rather than taking the time to ensure it was set securely on a solid surface. And then they connected it to the existing electrical line by installing an outlet and wrapping it in electrical tape before burying it. I reached out to them on three separate occasions and let them know I did not believe they had put the correct pump in and expressed my concerns regarding the integrity of the electrical connection given the fact that it was buried and would certainly be encountering water. Three times I was told they would return to make it right. They never came as promised and I finally decided it was now between them and God and I would stay out of it. The outlet finally rusted out and tripped my breaker. I had another company come and re-do this work the right way. They commented that they had never seen such ghetto work before in their career. I don't like leaving a bad review but I also do not want anyone else to be taken advantage of as I was. The attached photo shows the pump Ronnie Sr. and Wesley installed.
