I am not happy with this daycare at all! I was forced to find another one after my daughters preschool shut down on short notice. The office staff at GA said that they knew which preschool my daughter came from and they were a better facility. They are not. I have had nothing but problems from this place starting with one of the teachers. The first time I met this lady she showed up out of no where being loud and obnoxious that I actually thought it was another parent. She never introduced herself and I didnt even find out until I picked my daughter up the next day that she was actually in charge of children. Then when I did pick her up this teacher was being loud, rude and aggressive to the child. She told the children that if they hurt themselves it wasnt her fault. Half of the conversation I couldnt even understand bc she doesnt enunciate. I could have almost believed she was drunk. Then a month of so later, a friend, who I had pick up my daughter, said the same lady was rude to her and refused to even help when she went in to get my daughter. AFTER I had already called the office and informed them that an authorized person would be there to pick her up. In addition to these already mind boggling issues I have walked in on children being rude to each other and the teachers not caring or paying attention. I had my daughter tell me a boy spit food at her and then one day smacked her. No one informed me she had been smacked. No accident report had been filed. I had to call and talk to the office who had to follow up and would call me back. No one ever called me back. I did finally receive a note attached to my sign in sheet that VAGUELY spelled out what had happened. The lack of communication in this place is also concerning. Information doesnt seem to get relayed very well at all. Case in point when I called the office to inform them that someone, who was on the pick up list, would be in to pick her up. Nothing was relayed to the teacher who became rude and aggressive. My friend refuses, to pick up my daughter now because of the incident and she had repeatedly told me to find another daycare, which I am doing today!

I love this daycare! I would and have recommended it to many people. I was hesitant at first to put my child in a center because my oldest child was in an in home day care until she started kindergarten so I was used to that. Greenacres is a family business and one of a kind daycare and I feel fortunate to have stumbled upon them 5 years ago. My daughter started out here when she was only 4 months old in the the baby room and now is a "little rascal" the room right before she starts kindergarten next year. The staff has always been friendly and great to me and my child. My daughter loves going to school here and runs in every morning in excitement for the day. She didnt even want to go away for vacation because she was afraid she would be missing out on something. They do an excellent job preparing kids for kindergarten, which is very important. Thank you to everyone at Greenacres for taking such good care of my daughter.

My 4 year old has been at Greenacres for 6 months, she had been in 2 other preschools in the past. I have to say GA is a excellent learning center far above the two other daycare/preschool experiences we had. My child will definitely be ready for Kindergarten. All the help are cheerful, caring and patient, I have never seen any rude kids there or teachers being inattentive or rude. They have a great program, and they keep the kids attention with all the activities they have, It is a well maintained and very clean facility with nutritious and healthy meals, all the kids in my childs class are considerate and well behaved. They encourage good behavior with a reward system that the kids all understand and work toward . I give Greenacres Learning Center / Daycare a 5 star rating !!!

I needed to find a daycare center for my infant and GA is the best spot I could have found. The staff are always pleasant and speak to me when I come in to drop off or pick up my son. Would highly recommend it especially if you attend highline college it is right down the street from the campus so its very easy to pick up and Drop off then get to classes
