I enrolled two of my kids here at The Preschool Academy and at first they both had separation anxiety from being home with me for 3 years. The staff made my son and daughter feel safe and welcomed them with open arms. They made them feel safe and after a few days they were waving bye to my husband and I. Mrs. Corbin has a wonderful staff and runs this facility the way a business should be ran. I would recommend them to any of my family and friends. Thanks for such great service and thank you for what you do!

My daughter has been going here for over a year now and she absolutely loves it! The teachers are awesome and they genuinely care about all of the children. They are flexible and understanding. I’ve known the current director, Mrs. Corbin for years and she has the biggest heart of anyone I know. I feel so relieved knowing my child is in good hands.

My daughter is enrolled at The Preschool Academy in the infant room. As a new mom, I was nervous about sending my daughter to daycare but it has been nothing but a positive experience. The infant room teachers have been nothing short of amazing! They keep me up to date and at the beginning they did a great job at easing my anxiety and assured me that everything was going great! My daughter truly loves going to daycare and enjoys her teachers so much. This has been the greatest experience and I can’t wait to continue to watch her grow and learn at this wonderful establishment.

My husband and I have had a GREAT experience at The Preschool Academy! We have two children , one who attended The Preschool Academy until the age of four and moved on to public and one who attends now. We are so happy and satisfied with our experience. The staff is so loving and helpful! One of the things that we love about them is they have teachers that have been there for over 20 years! That says a lot about the school! We highly recommend this daycare! Do not let the negative reviews reflected play a part in your decision. I can honestly say that the negative reviews does not properly reflect the school and are not truthful. Please take a tour of the school and stay long enough to ask parents when they walk in their opinion of the school. Trust me a daycare that has been around this long, has teachers that have been there over 20 years, winner of 2017 best daycare/preschool in Athens is obviously doing something RIGHT! Another thing my husband and I love about them is they ALWAYS have Mother's Day celebrations, fathers day celebrations, grandparents day celebrations, family day celebrations, thanksgiving luncheons for families, Christmas Luncheons for families, and much more! Visit their Facebook page and look at the pictures of all the happy kids and parents who attend the school as well as community members! Mrs. Lacie is an AWESOME director!! My family LOVES TPA!!

We love The Preschool Academy. Ms. Jessie, and the teachers are wonderful. I would highly recommend this school. My only regret is not getting my little one in sooner. Ms. Pam is my daughter's teacher, and she has been at the school for 20+ years. I know because of her, and her assistants that my daughter will be ready for Pre-K. Thank you to The Preschool Academy, for being a huge part of my daughters early years of education. #onehappymama

My daughter has been at the preschool academy for 2 years and I started working for them 10 months ago. I have worked in many rooms with different ages and the one consistent thing is that the teachers love the children, take care of them, and teach them so much. I would never want my daughter anywhere else. I have been so thankful for everything she has learned at the preschool academy!

Preschool Academy has been a god send to our family! I had to go back to work only after 8 weeks PP and they made me feel so content with my baby in their care. My favorite thing about them is there consistent communication with me so I always know what my son is up to that day, if he’s acting different then usual, etc. They are constantly interacting with him and he is learning new things so quickly, I couldn’t ask for a better place for my son to be!

Our daughter goes here and has now for over 1 year. WE absolutely love what Corbin and the staff do for our daughter in helping her learn and taking care of her. They are loving, caring and friendly and I would never hesitate to refer them to anyone or worry about any of our children while in their care!

We love The Preschool Academy! Our daughter has been here since she was 10 weeks and we feel like they are extended family! Not only is she loved, but she’s learning too. I wish we knew about this place earlier so our older son could have gone.

My son recently started coming here and so far we’ve loved it ! One thing I love is that my son comes home clean and happy, he’s also very eager to go back the next day. The staff is amazing and very sweet! They’re also really easy to talk to and get in contact with. I would definitely recommend this to all my friend and family. You can tell they love their job(:

I love this daycare. They take care of my granddaughter, who loves going there. I've read the bad post and done some checking on the people who put the post with a one star. I with have to go with what I see for myself and my child's happiness. I've checked this daycares records and they are always passing with the State. So it seems to me the Daycare would be better off not having these parents and kids in their school, who would give a one star. This Daycare was rated and voted #1 in Athens. Read your paper. See for yourself. I've never had any problems with any of the teachers or Director. I wouldn't want to expose my child to a parent that would hit a daycare teacher or be upset if they ask for ID. Can you imagine what kind of emotional parents they are and teaching their kids it's ok? That's what is wrong with this world. They forgot who Jesus is. I pray for the Daycare and the employees that work there. I pray for the kids that have horrible parents. May they not grow up to be like their parents and do what Jesus would do. I send my blessings and prayers to keep you safe. May the Lord be with you all. Remember we all have to answer to God when it's our time. Amen.

My son was 1.5 when he started at another daycare in Athens...we were there for about 10 months. He was never happy to go and when i picked him up he was SO ready to get out of there. I felt incredibly guilty & decided to leave. This is where the Preschool Academy came in! It was only our second day of going when he wanted to walk in himself (at the other daycare i had to carry him in every day for the 10 months). He was so excited to entere the doors of PA on only the second day! He’s now 3.5 and still loves it. Even after a long day sometimes i still have to con him into leaving because he always wants to stay! The education he receives at TPA is phenomenal. The teachers care so much about the kids, their happiness and their futures. I am beyond grateful for everyone who works at TPA. It truly changed our lives.

My son is enrolled at The Preschool Academy in the fours room. He comes home daily and tell my husband and I what he’s learned. Teachers and staff are “Amazing” we’re happy to be a part of The Preschool Academy family.

As a past employee, I knew I wanted to send my kids here. Now that I have a daughter, I’m even more thankful for this place. While navigating motherhood is hard during the easiest of years, the sense of calm I get from leaving my daughter here is unmatchable. Thank you for being the strong and steady during a time of complete turmoil in my life and in the world!!

We had our son in a different daycare for a little while and it couldn’t compare to the Preschool academy. They keep the parents well informed about what is going on with their kids. Dedicated teachers.

We have had such a good experience at The Preschool Academy. My son loves his teachers and is learning so much. The staff there are very friendly and approachable. I can't imagine going anywhere else
