Coming from a previous parent, its taken a lot for me to write this review because I am not "that type" I had my kid/kids in White Oak (Dawson location) for a few years! The staff is outstanding, very welcoming and comforting! I felt great leaving my child there! As the months went on I was noticing things were a little off. The front always had teachers up there laughing and cutting up a few times they didnt even notice I was there standing at the door and another teacher had to let me in, that really bothers me when my child is in their care! As you walked through the school you could see some of the teachers just looked miserable (the ones who were always in the room working) and the selected few that were up front cutting up with the bosses. To me that upsets me, I am sending my child their to learn. Then to over hear teachers talking about the female DIRECTOR sleeping with a female teacher and nothing happening really just made me uncomfortable(as they are considered a Christian based facility)! A year went on and I have stayed friends with a family there and they told me about a teacher recently getting fired because she had a parent accuse her of sleeping with their spouse, very contradicting. The owner is fully aware of both situations and did nothing more to the director then a slap on the wrist and a push under the rug. There were times where I would walk in to pick up my kids and over hear several conversations between teachers that were not appropriate for a classroom setting. Another concern I had was during teacher appreciation week, the director served WINE to employees on the clock during working hours where they are responsible for our children. This is where I drew the line. Once again the owner of this facility did nothing about! This is not a place I would recommend to anyone looking for a childcare.

Kora, our family has really appreciated the care and attention you and your team of teachers have given both my wife, myself and our children over the last 5 years. Every day you or another administrator greeted us with a smile and in time by name. Throughout the years every teacher and caregiver who has worked with us and our children at White Oak Academy have genuinely gone out of their way to make sure we as a family were happy with your service and facilities. You have made accommodations for our request in the care of our children on numerous occasions, without blinking an eye. Especially when we approached you with specific dietary requirements for a child with allergies. You put us at ease and assured us the child would be well cared for, and he was. Leaving a child with food allergies in the hands of someone other than us is a very scary step and hurdle to overcome as a parent. You held our hand, calmed our nerves and cared for our child expertly. We can not thank you enough for everything you have done for my children at White Oak Academy or my family. Thank You!

We have used White Oak Learning Academy for almost 3 years now and we love it!!! It is an amazing daycare. The entire staff is amazing. I never have to worry about the safety of my son when dropping him off because I know he is in great hands. They always have smiling faces and are always willing to help! My son talks nonstop when he gets home about his day and how much fun he had. They do so many activities with the kids, and he has learned so much since we enrolled him in White Oak. I would definitely recommend this daycare!!!!!

Our family has used White Oak since our oldest child was 6 months old. Now at 12 she has aged out, but we still have our younger children there. They have been such a blessing in our lives. Always professional and friendly. They go the extra mile to accommodate our needs. They are a constant in our lives and it is such a relief to never have to worry about the care of our children. I highly recommend this center!

They were great with my toddler. While he wasnt happy for me to drop him off he wanted to show me everything he did when I came to pick him up and hug all the teachers when we left :)
