My son has been going here since he was 3months old. He’s almost 3 now. We LOVE
Peach Tree Academy! They care about the kids and love what they do. I have to drag my son out the school most days bc he loves being there. We’re not going anywhere else. He will be graduating from Peach Tree Academy. Ms. Peaches is the owner and she’s always there greeting you in with a smile and loving on your child as they come in. Ms. Tika is my child’s second mom. She’s the best! She so sweet, kind, and passionate about what she does. Ms. Dorothy is old school and she teaches the kids with love and guidance. The overall building is nice and always clean. They also have a nice play area outside. The school is diverse. Whatever issue you may have Ms. Peaches will help you and get it done. Look no further, this is the place to be for your little ones.
Look no further!! When I tell you it’s like a breathe of fresh air and the energy in that building is so uplifting just makes you feel welcomed VERY CLEAN organized and FULLY SECURED!! OMG I couldn’t ask for a better set of women to help me without feeling overwhelmed with life. I promise you won’t be disappointed. My baby is only 4 months old and he giggles everytime he see Ms Peaches and Ms T marvelous women!! Thank you ladies soooooo much!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
My only regret is that I can't give more stars. It was a joy to engage with Mrs Peaches and Mrs Tia from the 1st time we walked through the doors to see their smiling faces. Our son still asks to go to his "old school" some time.
Edit to add because I need to clarify their comment: nothing was ever talked to me about a knife incident. I genuinely have no idea what they're talking about because they didn't discuss anything about the day with us when my kids were picked up.
I hate leaving bad reviews. It hurts doing it, especially when not everything should be rated poorly. I want to start with the good:
- They are very accommodating and willing to try to work with you.
- the teachers are incredibly sweet and knowledgeable about what they do.
- they provide choices for picky eaters, which was a huge thing for my daughter.
However, there are major issues that I cannot let slide:
- I have not once received an incident report when my children have gotten hurt. I understand you don't catch everything and kids are clumsy, but it becomes an issue when I have NEVER received one. They got very defensive when I just asked to be notified of any possible injury, especially if you say that you look at kids faces before they leave.
- they posted all kids on the owner's PERSONAL Facebook page. They never had me sign something that consented to this, which is in violation of DHS policies. PER DHS, you must have a parents written consent to post anything on social media. When I brought this up, the owner did apologize and stated she would take the videos down. However, she was extremely defensive when I mentioned that it breaks the law to do that and she should have families sign a consent form in the future. I have found MULTIPLE instances of my children being posted on someone else's Facebook without my consent given. That is not okay, and extremely illegal.
These are my only two complaints, but they are major. Sadly, the good does not outweigh the bad in this case, and I cannot in good conscience recommend this daycare establishment to anyone.

I hope you have a better experience, but you truly left out all the great things we done. Someone will review you soon . We could very well had call DCS when your child reported the knife incident to the school but of course we wrote it down n discussed it, so that could of been very damaging to your job and life but we handled it in telling you not the world, you should be ashamed
This facility has been and still is a wonderful place. The nervousness of placing your child in a new environment was scary but the staff was so caring and calming that this turned out to be a most pleasurable experience. My two grandkids attended and now my great grandbaby is there. I Dearly love the staff and this facility. They are always helpful and the children are always excited to go to school. This Daycare is highly recommended.
Price assessment: Great price

We Love and appreciate you! Thanks for being the most important part of our business.
I called to inquire about enrollment for my son. I spoke with Ms. Teka and scheduled a tour for that Friday at 10am. I arrived about 10min before the tour and parked. About 2 minutes after parking a lady walked towards my truck and I rolled down my window. She said "I'm just trying to see who are you" with an attitude. Taken a back by the delivery and demeanor of this lady, I replied assertively "I am here for a tour at 10". It appeared as if she was offended by my response to her and she said something to the affect of she expecting someone for an application. I repeated that I was present for a tour at 10. She walked off shaking her head. I put my truck in drive and left.
I work with people from all walks of life on a daily basis. I understand communication and engagement. This exchange let me know that this is not the place for my family. This let me know that if I potentially had an issue or concern regarding care, I could be met with a similar attitude.
Thanks for showing me very quickly all I needed to see.

Mam you are 100 percent wrong, I have the whole convesation on tape and Im going to play it. This is for my parents and the People I have serviced. An employee asked you a question and you pulled off. This is total defamation of character and you did right by pulling off. This world is hatefual to try to hurt a business, you are hurting yourself. My employees were in a state visit. You will be hearing about this again with the footage. I thank God you didn't come in and WATCH GOD SHOW YOU IMMEDITATELY THAT YOU ARE WRONG,. YOU LIED ON MY BUSINESS!!!!!!!!!
Peachtree academy is the cream of the crop! I have never seen a curriculum implemented amongst such a young group of children who are also engaged at every turn. It starts from the learning visuals at the entrance of each class, continues throughout the voices of each caring instructor, and is solidified by the time the child is leaving with a smile on their heart and their spirit. Ms. Cynthia’s kind spirit runs through out that daycare and it shows with the unique attention that is given to each child. My nieces and nephew attend this daycare and you can feel the joy the children have in learning, with their instructors, and just all around with being there. If you want your child to truly thrive as a scholar with the biggest smile on their face, everything is just peachy at Peachtree academy.

Your kindness and thoughts are appreciated to the fullest.
Peachtree is a safe place for children. The director truly values the wellbeing of the children and educate them with Christian values. The cleanliness of the center is the best. The staff are friendly and take great care of the children. My children would come home knowing their numbers and letters and displayed their satisfaction with the meals. It is truly a blessing to have such an establishment in these times that will ease your mind while away from your child. I truly recommend.
Peachtree Academy of Excellence has been such a wonderful place for my daughter! The teachers are caring, patient, and truly invested in the children’s growth. She has learned so much and loves going every day. I highly recommend Peachtree Academy to any parent looking for a safe and nurturing school.
The communication with parents is excellent—they keep me updated on her progress and activities, which gives me so much peace of mind. The classrooms are warm, safe, and well-structured, and I love how they balance learning with fun.
Ms peaches and the staff here are top tier. Very family oriented ms peaches has gone above and beyond when I needed help with anything I will not send my child to any other daycare and I’m very grateful for peach tree academy
