  • I absolutely adore TAYS! I love that my kids got to enjoy the outdoors and play while learning. The teachers are great. Highly recommend TAYS. Ms Helen is so great and truly cares about our kids and she makes sure she hires similarly. Ms Ive really learns the kids and is so involved. Ms Shakeela is a favorite for the toddler classroom. They are a joy to be around and my kids love them.

  • My 3-year old and 5-year old have both attended The Academy of Young Scholars for approximately the last 2 years. I have seen such an improvement developmentally with them both, and this is a testament to the phenomenal work of the teachers and staff. Each morning we are greeted by Ms. Maria, Ms. Briana, Ms. Helen or Ms. Frances. They always have a smile on their faces and get the kids pumped for a new day. My 5-year old has improved so much with his speech, letter recognition, phonics, math, and social development. My 3-year old has also seen these same benefits. These teachers do an amazing job at not only teaching children, but also genuinely caring for them. As my 5-year old prepares for Kindergarten, Ms. Maria has spent invaluable one-on-one time with him practicing letters, phonics, and other kindergarten curriculum. She truly cares about his success not just at The Academy of Young Scholars, but beyond. Ms. Briana and Ms. Helen do an excellent job in the day-to-day operations of the facility. They stay on top of sending out updates and keeping the facility clean and welcoming. Whenever I've had a question, they're just a text, phone call, or email away. When choosing a Daycare, you want to feel confident that your child is in good hands, and I have felt that way since day one with The Academy of Young Scholars. The teachers are top-notch and the curriculum and outdoor setting have been instrumental in the development of both of my children. I highly recommend the Academy of Young Scholars.

  • I could never speak highly enough about them. They had our girl from 8 months until she went on to Kindergarten. They truly loved our girl and made sure she felt that daily. They taught her things I never imagined she'd already be learning. They truly are one of a kind. Everyone there is so wonderful! We love our TAYS family❤️

  • This is an amazing daycare! My daughter was here from one and a half years to five when she went to kindergarten. She was 100% ready for big girl school! The teachers are the best. The first thing my daughter wanted to do after her first day of kindergarten was to go tell her old teacher! I love the way they teach a lot outside in the fresh air and my daughter loved it too!

  • I have seen phenomenal levels of development in my son while in attendance at the academy of young scholars! The director Ms Helen Barnes continuously amazes me with her knowledge and experience in the child development process I have witnessed firsthand her dedication and commitment to maintaining this as a school of higher learning (academically, emotionally and physically). The teachers all share, show and exhibit her exact same passion and my son has grown a bond/love for each teacher. Make no mistakes and at least visit to see for yourself.
