My son had a great experience with Ms.Havalone & Ms. Ramiee. I love that Ms. H keeps an update all day on what the kids are doing with pictures, Videos, and sometimes even messages ! She is very attentive with my son even though she has a whole class. Ms. H even has a YouTube channel that helps the kids continue to learn from home which is great ! I highly recommend her she is great ! Thank you for treating my son with kindness and great support teaching him !

This place is an absolute disaster. DO NOT TAKE YOUR CHILDREN HERE TO GHETTO EAST! There is mold in the building that continues to make the children sick which comes from the owner not properly getting the septic tank fixed which causes the water to flood the building and it smells horrible breathing in toxins from a sewer. They are ALWAYS under staff and they are ALWAYS out of ratio. They DONT take time to teach the children anything educational except turning the iPad on coco melon and free play. They never do any creative art because the staff is always on their phone or in the Directors office gossiping. The director disciplines some children by spanking them until they fall asleep in her office. They allow sick children with high fevers to stay at the daycare to potentially make others sick. There is always new staff because no one wants to stay dealing with the director and her showing favoritism to some staff. The director also made fake first aid and cpr cards for other staff members. And when state came to evaluate they moved some children out of the classroom so that they wouldnt get a fine. They hardly ever wash sheets that the children sleep on daily and they dont change the childrens diapers as the rules apply. They never clean toys or equipment. A staff member had COVID 19 and was sick and absent. They never cleaned the room nor did they inform staff about the incident. They also have children in classrooms of different age groups all in one room. Please be very attentive about your children if they are attending this daycare.

My daughter had a great experience with her teacher Ms. Havalone. Ms. Havalone has helped my daughter grow so much and she has looked forward to going to daycare because of the comfortability that Ms. Havalone provided in the classroom. I enjoyed getting several updates throughout the day so that I was aware of what my child was doing.

My daughters teacher Ms.Havoline makes me feel so comfortable leaving my child. She has learned so much in the past few months she has been there with her(colors, letters, numbers and so much more )She makes learning fun and my baby anticipates going daily. We are blessed to have her and I will truely be sad when my baby goes to prek and has to leave her class.

Please dont believe the lies that Jerita Porter is spreading. She is not happy that she can no longer work at our facility. It hurts when you trust teachers to provide care for our young leaders and they cause harm. She purposely sprayed Lysol on a sick childs face (trying to be funny) and the school let her go. We let her go immediately after reviewing the cameras and what the parent saw. A police report was made for documention. Prior to her getting fired, we were going to have her drug tested due to her frantic behavior changes after lunch.
The school has a laundry room. Sheets are cleaned weekly. Children are leaning.
The owner has receipts to show that the teachers had clogged the toilets with wipes and caused a backup with the toilet. Yes, there school had a flood and we hired a company to clean and we had the school closed. Repairs were made by a great plumbing company. All receipts are at the school and is available for review. There is no mold present at the facility. Repairs are constantly being done for improvement and for safety.
We are continually looking for teachers like several schools ands daycare centers in the state of Georgia. We are still looking for teachers that have a passion for teaching our your leaders. We will continue to have turn overs until we find that perfect teacher for your babies.
Porter should not be around any kids and should be drug tested on a regular.
