Provided by YP.comI am so glad to see that Little Wildcats has a great reputation! My children attended a while ago and was sad to leave due to moving to another area! It saddens me to see people leave negative comments on this page! People need to keep in mind that this is a family run business of people who care about your kids and, just like you, may not be perfect but do their best and handle problems if there are any quickly and efficiently! I once had a problem with my child when she was in the pre k program and I wrote a note addressing the problem to her teacher and it was fixed immediately with a kind response back! If people would treat others like they would want to be talked to and treated, it will have a better outcome! If the director isn't available at the moment, give her a minute and she WILL reach back to you. If you haven't heard from her in a day or so, then call back and kindly remind them that you called. If there is something you are not sure about, ask! The staff is very knowledgeable and if they are not sure of the answer, will get back to you with one! We are all humans, and these are the humans I would want (and wish still had) taking care of my children while I am working, or even apart of the PreK program!

Provided by YP.comI heard from my friend that Mrs. Michelle and Mrs. Lauren were still teaching at Little Wildcats and her grandbaby LOVES going to Pre-K there! My grandbaby had Mrs. Michelle a few years ago and I STILL hear about how much fun she had with Mrs. Lauren and Mrs. Michelle, and wishes she could go back! I would recommend having your preschooler attend Little Wildcats Academy for sure!

Provided by YP.comThe Pre-K Program here is AMAZING! Mrs. Michelle goes above and beyond with her teaching! I did some research on the program and not only did she teach that, but also taught leadership skills! She genuinely loves her job and wants the best from the kids, including mine! I love hearing the songs of the habits and love seeing love for learning and school! Shellissa has a gem in her hands for sure!

Provided by YP.comThey let my 4 year old walk in front of a swing and she got a cut just above her eye that required stitches. They did not tell us that she needed stitches, they just put a band aid on it. When I got home and removed the band aid, I could see clear through to the bone and took her to the ER immediately! The owner was nowhere to be found every time I tried to speak with her. AWFUL customer service!

Provided by YP.comMy kids 10 months and 3 have been at Little wildcats for about 2 months and we absolutely love it, they had never been to daycare before and had a hard time adjusting but the entire staff was loving and supportive. we still have the daily dropping off crying but once we come to pick them up they do not want to leave. Our son has to give everyone hugs and kisses before he leaves and he just loves them so much, and the cook is amazing. I feel comfortable knowing my kids are being feed well and taken care of. the academy is always very clean and the staff is always friendly and sociable and really good at giving daily updates. We looked at ALOT of daycares before choosing Little Wildcats and the reason we did is because from the moment we walked in we felt welcomed, my daughter had a blow out as soon as we walked in the door an the receptionist was so sweet she took us back to a changing room and gave us wipes and bag for the dirty clothes we were so embarrassed but she was lovely. Our 10 month old daughter is on a very strict Dr. prescribed diet and has to have A lot of calories a day and be feed exactly on time and the ladies are amazing about her eating on time everyday. I was very worried about sending her to daycare at all because if she doesn't eat the exact amount of calories a day she will loose weight. and on our last trip to the Dr. she has gained a pound and that made us extremely happy to know that she's in good hand and I can feel confidant that she will be feed on time and that I get a log of the times and what she ate daily so I can keep track of it at home. anyway in conclusion if you are looking for an affordable and loving daycare with an at home experience look no further. this place is for you.

Provided by YP.comLove!!!! Love!!!! Love!!!!! I toured every daycare within a 20 mile radius before deciding to go with Little Wildcats. There were several factors. 1 The place is clean, neat and well cared for. 2-When I walked in the door to take a tour, the receptionist, treated me as though I was a long lost relative and she was welcoming me home. 3-The price is right!!! This was a bonus, because I was definitely willing and able to pay what ever it cost to have the best!!! 4-I did as a previous reviewer did, and I searched online until found the official States inspection reports and read all of them and was pleased. I also made a phone call and spoke with a real person at the state that confirmed my findings. There are so many other reasons but most importantly I suppose is that my "mommy gut" just said this was the perfect fit. My son has now been there almost a year and I am soooooo happy I chose them.

Provided by YP.comAwesome Daycare!!! After reading one of the previous comments, I decided to do some research of my own, since I too have a child at this facility. To my relief, my findings were quite the opposite of the pryor mom. My first stop was the States website for all daycares in Georgia, and I encourage any parent looking for child care to do the same!!! The state records for every facility are public and they are there for us parents! I found that Little Wildcats meets and exceeds all regulations and requirements. Their inspections are frequent and un-announced! LW have always met the "teacher student ratio" as long as my child has been there. In fact, that is a reason for "being moved to another class". When class size grows, a new teacher is brought in and a new classroom is formed. As far as the outdoor temps, I found that the state actually recommends that all kids should go outside when temps are above 37degrees. I personally appreciate my child being taken outside for fresh air and vitamin D, even when its chilly. I spoke with the owner/director myself about this issue and she was very open and pleasant to me. It is encouraging to see her (owner) in the facility on a daily basis and know that I can go to her anytime. It builds my trust, and that's what this boils down to....TRUST!!! My advice to all parents looking for child care is.... don't just take the word of a random review site. Go to the facility and see for yourself. Take a tour, take several tours. Drop in un-announced. Build a relationship with your provider as I have. As far as Little Wildcats, I am 100% satisfied and will look no further!

Provided by YP.comI have had children at Little Wildcats for years and could not be more pleased!!!! Little Wildcats staff have always treated me and my kids like family! It starts with the warm welcome and hugs when they walk in the door, to the delicious home cooked meals, gently patting them on their backs as they fall asleep for nap, all the way to the loving goodbyes at the end of the day. My children always have wonderful stories of the fun activities and things they learned. Nothing makes a mom feel better than to see her children being loved on by their childcare provider which includes their personal teacher, the cook, the receptionist and the director/owner, all of who I have personally seen giving my children affection, praise, and love. I would highly recommend this center to anyone who wants their children to feel loved while away from their mommies.

Provided by YP.comWe attended Little wild cats for almost 3 years and you would regret you choose this place. At first glance this daycare has a lot of pros, very clean, bright and very appealing entrance, teachers seem pleasant but that's where the compliments stop. The front desk staff gives a smug "hi/good morning" as if they don't want to be there and they're speaking so you can't say they didn't speak. They often call about child having fevers just to get staff off the clock and make you run to come get your child only to have the child not have a fever once you get there. The owner seems sweet nice and grateful but is really money hungry, you quickly get the impression they feel they are doing you a favor for you PAYING them to take care of your child. The entire staff can benefit from a course in customer service. NOT ONE STAFF MEMBER AT THIS DAYCARE HAS LEFT ON A POSITIVE NOTE OR HAS A POSITIVE RESPONSE ABOUT THE DAY CARE. The employee retention is extremely high and they do a horrible job in notifying parents of teacher and class room changes. Lastly they have lowered their prices because they can't keep parents in the facility. Run from this place, the looks are VERY deceiving, it s better to pay a little more for your sanity and wellbeing of your child. Ask them if they are such a "great" place why are you so cheaper than the surrounding centers in the area; parents would be on waiting lists to get in don't you think?

I have been with this center for 5 years now and I can guarantee that no child has or every will be abused or neglected, like stated in a past review!
