  I've been debating leaving this review for a while. We had our children at Cole for about a year. Our older child liked it pretty well (1.5 stars because she liked it). I think her teacher did the best she could with insufficient support. Our younger liked it okay after the first adjustment period, then grew to hate it the last few months we were there. He started to show many textbook signs of either being yelled at or ignored too often by his teachers. He was too young to explain, but began to clutch onto us and cry at dropoffs among other signs. I finally witnessed a teacher yelling myself, reported the teacher to ownership, and requested that my child change classes. The offending teacher seemed to be better for a while, but was apparently removed due to another incident after we left the school permanently. After switching to a healthier environment at a new daycare, it took nearly six months for our son to grow out of his fears of daycare. He asked for nearly a year if we're going to "new school" or "old school" and I have to reassure him that we're never going back to his old school. I hate to associate the good teachers (there are some) there with this review, but in retrospect, I feel terrible and guilty that I didn't better understand the signs and take action to remove our kids sooner than we did. Since leaving, we've heard other stories, some much worse than what we personally witnessed, from those who have also since removed their kids.

  We’ve been at Cole academy just under a year now and we love it! We started when my daughter was 3 months old and she’s about to turn 1. The staff is SO caring and great with communication. They really love and care about those kiddos and it should shows!

  We love this school! Our two boys have attended Cole Academy for the last four years and I cannot say enough great things about our experience. The staff are all so caring and make personal connections with the children. You can tell they really care about each child. Other parents are always amazed by how much our kids know and how well mannered they are. The staff and administrators are very intentional about partnering with parents on any concerns and communicate both good and bad feedback in a thoughtful way. The school is always super clean and welcoming. We are so thankful to have a great school for our kids!

  We are so grateful for Cole Academy and the personal care and love they show our daughter. We were patient and waited quite a while to get into this daycare and I'm so glad we did. There are reviews out there complaining about the waiting process (hello, that's everywhere... be grateful they don't charge an application fee to get on the waitlist)!.Consider the fee to be that you need to call and continually tell them you want your child to go there). I believe that the fact that this facility stays full without needing to do much to promote themselves should speak volumes to potential parents looking at Cole Academy for daycare. None of the negative reviews I read said anything bad about the care your child receives - in fact, the negative reviews were from people who didn't get in/did not have backup plans/or seemed mentally unstable. The negative reviews consist of whining that they did not get in or were not treated like royalty because they are important people - guess what, to them everyone is important so that's why you were not treated special.
