I have to say I have read the reviews and had a completely different experience. I went on the wait list - I was told that it was very lengthy (about 9 - 12 months). Robin explained how the list works and added me the day I came in. She called me a few times to touch base. Even apologized about the long list and thanked me for my patience. They even recommended that we go on more than one list. Ms. Nancy gave me a tour - I found her to be very friendly and knowledgeable. The baby teachers were wonderful! I eventually got in and so happy I "hung in there".!!!!! I found every center I called had an infant wait list. I am thrilled I got in

I was put on the waiting list while pregnant and assured a spot by Nancy, the director. I called one month after the baby was born to confirm my spot on the waiting list. I called two months after the baby was born to let them know I was going back to work earlier than anticipated but still confirming my spot. Both conversations, I spoke with the director, Nancy and was told I was "all set". When my confirmed date of enrollment came...and passed...with no call, I began calling weekly. She would not take my calls or return my messages. Weeks and weeks passed. Fortunately, I was able to find childcare and have a job that allowed me to bring my infant to work. When I was finally able to get through to Nancy TWO MONTHS after my son was supposed to start, she offered an unprofessional and insincere "apology" for not calling me. Infant childcare in Savannah is difficult to find. Be careful getting on Nancy's waiting list since she chooses not to honor her word and does not return messages. In the end, she did me a favor since I would never want my child in the care of a business run by this director.

I strongly recommend the Children's House to anyone looking for exceptional care for their child. The newly renovated building, loving teachers and caring support staff help make this center one of Savannah's finest. The playground is huge with many opportunities for children to explore the outdoors and engage in physical activities. They have just added a library upstairs and a new curriculum for the three year olds. I can't wait for my child to be age eligible for the Pre-K program next year. I am truly impressed with the people and the center!!!!

If you love your child please do not enroll them in this daycare center.
