Great place and great staff. My husband and I loved it for our daughter. Thanks Ms. Ana, Ms. Marie and Ms. Becky for all you do.

We love the sunshine house so much. We have a 2 year old and 8 month old enrolled and we’ve been so happy here. We LOVE Ms Keke, Ms Becky and Ms Amelia! They are kind, caring, knowledgable and just the best! Our kids love them and they look forward to going to school everyday. Very thankful to have found this school for our babies!

My experience was very disheartening with this school. Our son is very active and playful with speech delay. When we first started we communicated all these things to the school to later find out that our son due to their observation was not supportive to the environment they were trying to create. My son is two years old, he is speech delayed and bilingual. Because he doesn't exactly represent the image they are looking for they gave us a week to find him a new location. In short, if you have a child they may need extra attention or support, this is NOT the location for you. They are not equipped or trained to meet your child's needs.

I’m a disabled veteran who was retired in 2019 and I’ve been struggling financially so I decided to go back to school and needed daycare I spoke to two ladies that said they had availability for my daughter to attend in January. They handed me a packet to fill out so I put all my eggs in this basket. I showed up to drop off the papers and while standing there waiting for them to answer the door one lady rudely said to the director “I don’t know who the hell this is.” All while I’m standing there holding THEIR welcome packet. Then the director, Yvette Murphy comes up to me with the rudest attitude and the dirtiest looks asking me who I was and proceeds to tell me they don’t have any room for my daughter. I politely told them I talked to two ladies ahead of time who told me they had room for my daughter, And I even pointed out the office of the lady I talked to. She proceeded to give me a look like I was a problem. She very condescendingly told me how she was the director and she’s telling me there is no room for my daughter and has no idea who gave me my information. As I left in tears all she could say was “yup okay” no I’m so sorry for the confusion. No apology of any kind and refused to accept responsibility for the mishap. Her demeanor was completely rude and unprofessional towards me. If she had no common decency towards me I worry how she would treat my child. Glad I got to see how the director conducts business so I know never to leave my child here.

Our baby girl started at Sunshine House Ballantyne about a month ago and loves it so far! My daughters teachers are kind and caring. Also, the center is always clean and welcoming.

As a first time parents we were overwhelmed with all the options. However we decided to go with the Sunshine Academy after our tour. We love the location near our house, the outdoor and indoor locations. Miss Yvette was very nice and transparent about the process. Also the fact that wipes, bibs and diapers are provided is plus. All the kids loved our son first teacher and that is a reassurance that our baby was in good hands. Now he is in a different class and all the new teachers are sweet and caring. The app makes communication a breeze. I can see daily photos, videos and notes about my son. Also when I call to check on him they promptly answer. I will recommend this academy to anyone in Ballantyne or south Charlotte!

Ms Yvette and Ms Shannon are wonderful. They both made me and my husband feel at ease from the second we stepped foot in the facility for our tour. Ms Heather was amazing with our son in the infant room. Hilarious and loves her babies! Ms Becky is so much fun and always knew our son was in good hands in her room. Ms Ana is the such a great teacher. Her patience and love really show. She does a phenomenal job with the toddlers. Teaching them sign language and dancing to songs. Not to mention to upload pictures of him everyday so I can see how much fun they are having. What a great school- we love y’all!

After having a horrible experience at another daycare in the area, I was a little nervous about starting at The Sunshine House. During the tour they were so caring and nice and answered every question. I was thankful that they were able to get us in so last minute (due to us pulling him from another daycare). The staff here goes above and beyond, I’m so glad I can drop my infant off and feel as though he is safe and in a caring environment. The infant teacher, Heather is AMAZING! I am so thankful that my son gets to hang out and learn with her while I’m at work. When we walk in, my son gets the largest smile on his face. He absolutely loves her! It makes me a little jealous sometimes lol. Just a couple weeks in, we noticed a huge jump in our sons development. He was rolling, able to lift his head high and sturdy, and very communicative. It’s always hard leaving your little ones to go to work, but at The Sunshine House they make it a lot easier on you. They also follow safe sleep habits which is a huge bonus!

We’ve had a wonderful experience so far at Sunshine House! Becky, Ana and Alex have been exceptional teachers and our daughter loves to go there! Would definitely recommend them to parents of little ones.

The school seemed wonderful, but communication was less than ideal. Called to set up a tour and was interested in starting both of my kids. Was led to believe there would be availability for both in the near future, so I went in. Had a great tour and after talking with my husband we were ready to enroll. Turns out they couldn't give me a start date for one kid anytime in the foreseeable future. I expressed my frustration and that I was willing to get creative to fill the gap if I could at least have a timeframe. After two emails and almost a week with no response, my husband finally had to call and felt like all he received was attitude and unwillingness to help. Might be a good school, but I would not put my kids there after my experience.

Worse daycare I have ever dealt with in all my children. The lack compassion, they over charge and the care is about 3/5 if that. I would never recommend this corporation to anyone even my worse enemy.

I LOVE the sunshine house in Ballantyne ! Being a first time mom I was extremely nervous when I decided to go back to work when my little one was six months. When I requested a tour I knew immediately when I stepped into the doors this would be my child’s second home away from home. My child has really found her groove when her classmates and her teachers. When I drop her off in the morning and she sees Mrs. Becky she RUNS to her and waves bye to her mommy. The moment this happened I knew I had made the right choice and that she was happy and in great care. The first few weeks I was on the app every day making sure my Little one was okay. Now a little over 5 months in I only check the app when I need to because I know she is in great care. Mrs. Yvette is amazing and I am so blessed to have found this center for my child.

We have been going to Sunshine House for almost 8 years now and have really enjoyed our time there. The core teachers have always been wonderful and I've felt at ease bringing my kiddos there. Both my kids always want Ms Shannon’s food over mine. I recommend it.

From the day we toured the Sunshine House Donnington Drive, and now 5 months in, we knew this was the right place to send our son. We adore the staff and they adore him. We love the app they use, their schedule works with our schedule (which other facilities in the area did not), but most of all we love the care they provide and how much he’s learning! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!
