We absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE cornerstone! Our daughter is so happy to be here!
They ve basically potty trained her for us! She learns so much and has made great friends!
Her teacher, Miss Kiki is always teaching her new songs, dances, and gives us detailed accounts of her day.
We love everyone at cornerstone. You can really tell they care about your child!
Director where very welcoming I had a mess understanding but they did everything to make it right I think them for the opportunity they gave me was a great first job and got alot of work experience they treat there employees like family
My daughter has been going here for over a year now. They have a very professional staff that truly care about all of the children there. I fully trust the well being of my child there.
My child attended this school for only a few months and the experience was HORRIBLE. We participated in the summer program and the GA Pre-K program (2016) there and the teachers in my opinion aren't suited to teach small children. They expect 4 year old kids to sit around like "Stepford" children and not move around. I personally sat in my child's class and observed the chaos. My child was accused of hitting, almost on a daily basis. He has NEVER been a hitter and isn't at his new facility. (Which is why I never believed them when they said so) They labeled him as violent and aggressive. He begged me not to send him to school, at which point I promptly removed him. They are supposed to be voted # 1 in Douglas County, I beg to differ. I did wait awhile to post this review because I didn't want my disappointment to come through in an unprofessional manner.
Lastly, he has learned more in 3 weeks at his new school than he did in months at this one. Truly speaking, Ms. Lana (owner), Ms. Dana (Director), and Ms. Vickie, for the community you all have to do better. Hope this helps someone.

This is the most unprofessionally managed daycare I've ever seen. Not to mention their unsafe. The staff doesn't know how to handle conflict, encourages violence by watching kids fight instead of stopping it, anyone can walk right into the center, and they left my small child at the elementary school. Dana and her staff are very rude. They don't know how to separate between business and personal. I gave the facility a two week withdrawal notice for my child and they told me that wk would be his last. All of a sudden my child had behavioral issues.... Yeah right! If you care about your children, don't let them attend here.
Imagine going to pick up child after their very first day in daycare and NO one knows where your child is. Well that was my experience.
During the tour staff appeared to be pleasant and professional the classroom and teacher I was shown during tour also the teacher I meet during my tour was no longer at school, so that should have been a sign.
I would trust these people with my dog..
I do not recommend this center at all. The staff is very unprofessional and rude especially 'Dana' and the director 'Lana Elliott'. I didn't feel that the school/staff had the best interest the children in mind.
If you are looking for a nurturing environment for your child please do not send them here!!! And, the facility itself needs a lot of work and updating/maintenance.
Love this place and the love they show my sweet boy!
For almost 8 years now, Cornerstone has maintained a friendly staff as well as a safe, clean, responsible, and (best of all) affordable environment for my children.
This place is extremely unprofessional and full of liars, they don't care about the wellbeing of your child all they care about is the money. There is no communication whatsoever. The owner made a decision to remove my child without discussing it with me first, just a phone call from the director stating when his last day would be which was only a week from then. My son is not violent or aggressive, just a normal toddler who has fits every now and then. They are not capable of handling small children here. He was sent home almost daily with a behavioral sheet saying he was hitting or causing disruptions during nap time, but has been at a new facility now for almost two weeks and hasn't had one issue and his teachers love him, he's the first one down for a nap and one of the best behaved in his class. There is something seriously wrong with this place behind closed doors and I wish I would have sat in to see what was happening. If you care about your child's wellbeing do not send them to this facility!
Absolutely love this daycare .... I drive 15 minutes out the way to make sure my daughter is at the best. Our children deserve the best . I love that most of staff have been there over 15 years. I never have to worry for my daughters safety for I know that the Director knows when something or someone looks out of place. If you want the number daycare in Douglas County...seek no more you found them.
Don't take your kids here. One problem after the next. People are rude and team up on kids they dont like.
I absolutely love the consistency of teachers at this daycare. I see the same familiar faces everyday, which I've learned is a rarity at some schools. I think the directors work very hard to make things run as smoothly as possible and have always been very accommodating to us. My child has been here for over 2 years and she loves it. Also, for the price - they beat everyone else in Douglas County.
The education is also awesome. My child is well prepared for school.
The only thing I'd say is the building needs some improvements. It's definitely kept clean - but sometimes they don't run the air in the cooler temps, which can make the rooms kind of muggy/stuffy/smelly. Think diapers & sweaty kids in a stuffy room. This probably bothers me/the adults more so than the kids though.
I've seen multiple things happen in this center , a teacher pulled the chair from under a child , I've seen a teacher ( Miss Megan) yank a child up by his arms and through stuff at students . They serve the children uncooked food raw biscuits, raw cake and so much more ! The director Mrs. Dana is very hateful with the students employees and the parents.

I Love this Daycare!!! Great family setting and staff is friendly !
My son has been going here since he was 2. He is now in their pre-k program and he loves it! We have never had any issues. All of the staff are sweet and helpful. You can tell they truly care about each child.
My son has improved tremendously on his speech, his numbers and letters. They are teaching him sign language in pre-k! I can t say enough great things about this daycare.
My daughter is finishing Pre-K here. I'm a teacher myself (at another school) and I have no complaints. Top notch service.
My son went there in 2012 and they were great. I see me putting my daughter there next school year
All 3 of my children have attended Cornerstone. They have always shown love and care for them and for us. If one of my children tripped and fell at the playground, someone would call to let me know in addition to writing a Boo Boo report. They are very thorough when it comes to communication. My children are 14, 12, and 4, so we have attended for close to 14 yrs. All 3 have been as infants, toddlers, and preK. They are part of our family, and we are part of theirs. Love them!
