If it was possible to leave 0 stars I would. My son who has been in daycare his whole childhood started pre-K there this year as we are new to the area. Beginning his first day of school, he came home with very alarming behavior. He was silent, would not tell us anything good or bad that happened. He just wouldn’t speak. We began to notice the teacher never had anything good to say. It was always that he didn’t have a good day. They would never give us feedback. Having worked in childcare for many years this was very alarming for me. After two weeks of him not speaking and acting very different he told us that he was spanked at school multiple times showed me that they would push his head down hard. After this we began researching the school and the reviews and found on the state reports many cases filed against them due to complaints. If you look at surrounding daycares there are little to no reports, however this school had multiple ranging from the end of 2022 to as recent as June 2023. They have also had to pay fines for some of the violations against state guidelines. Please do not send you child here. Or at least look up their violations and investigations on bright from the start website. I wish I had done it sooner. We have filed a complaint with the state and are following up to ensure that this will not happen again.

I highly recommend Georgia Kids Academy! My 22 month old granddaughter has excelled in her social skills and talking since being enrolled in February. The staff are always so welcoming and patient with not only the children but also the parents and grandparents. Jenna, Jessica, April and Kristen have been great!

We LOVE G.K.A. and all the staff!! The facility is always clean and well kept. They care deeply about their profession and you can see they establish a relationship with each child and parent. I've seen my daughter thrive and improve with her social skills and development. April, Kristen, Jenna, and Jessica have all made the process so easy. They always have clear lines of communication and continue to keep me informed about my daughter's day. The price for what you get is great too!

My kids love GKA!My kids started here back in 2017. We have nothing but positive to say about this facility. We have been thru multiple facilities until we found this one. The director, assistant director and teachers are all very caring and dedicated. Our children feel loved and sheltered. They keep us informed and involved with our children. Great location and small town feel. Love it!

Another edit: There are no original GKA employees/teachers now. Everyone is new since being sold. That says something about the changes being made. Also, I recently found out the cameras have been disabled. Now they can’t be held liable for anything. Very sad.The review below was when Jamie was the owner. Georgia Kids Academy is like any other daycare now. GKA use to feel like a small hometown daycare. Now everything is corporate. If you have an issue you can’t speak to the director. You have to wait on corporate to contact you which they still have not. Parking is horrible also. Employees should not be allowed to park up front especially with the price increase. Also $45 drop in rate for kids enrolled in before and aftercare is ridiculous. I already pay $75 a week. Now add $45 a day to that. No way!! To say I’m not happy is putting it lightly.I do still love my sons teachers. Thankfully most of the teachers are the same as before.This was my review when Jamie was the owner: Very friendly and professional staff. My kids love their teachers. In fact my youngest cries some days not to leave. I love that my children enjoy spending after-school and school breaks at Georgia Kids Academy!! The location is convenient also!

Let me start off by saying that I was extremely hesitant on putting my faith back into any daycare system. The state had really failed us when it came to child care.HOWEVER, Georgia Kids Academy turned things around and shown me what it should feel like for my son. He genuinely loves Georgia kids academy and I could not be more grateful for the love and support the staff has shown my son and I. I can not tell you how many times he’s woken up on the weekend and asked to go to school, or how many times I’ve had to bribe him to leave at pick up. He goes around and hugs literally everyone, from the staff and teachers to the other children.I’m grateful for this staff and the love they show my son. Thank you GKA for loving my little as your own!The parking is fine, we could all use an extra few steps in our life and the price increases are bound to happen.
