Our Difference

Local Schools, Shared Commitment

Every Lakestones Academy school has its own director, teachers, and front door. What they share is what families count on: teachers who know your child, learning through play, a secure school, and practical help for busy weeks.

At Every School

What You Can Count On

Staff Who Know Your Child

The song that settles them, the friend they look for first, the way they like to say goodbye. Our teachers learn it quickly.

Play With a Purpose

A tower of blocks is early math. A made-up story is language and problem-solving. Learning Beyond Paper turns a fun day into a full day of learning.

A School You Can Trust

Controlled entry, daily sign-in and sign-out, and Georgia's required ratios in every classroom.

You Stay in the Know

Photos and updates on your phone, and a teacher at pickup who can tell you what your child loved today.

Built Around Real Schedules

Meals and snacks provided, Drop-In Care when plans change, free Georgia Pre-K and school transportation at participating schools, and four schools so one is close to home.

Why Our Families Trust Us

"We toured several other schools before finding Lakestones, and none of them ever felt like the right fit for our family. From the moment we met Adrienne and toured Lakestones, we immediately felt at home! Our daughter absolutely loves her teachers (shoutout to Ms. Hope!), and it gives us so much peace of mind knowing how loved and well taken care of she is throughout the day. Receiving updates and pictures throughout the day truly makes our day and gives us so much reassurance knowing she’s happy, learning, and having fun while we’re away from her. They do such a great job incorporating learning, outdoor play, and fun into her days, and they even provide lunch and snacks. As busy parents, it’s so nice not having to worry about packing a million things for school every morning because they truly do it all! We couldn’t be happier with our experience and are so thankful to be part of the Lakestones community."

"We have had such a wonderful experience with Lakestone Academy in Cartersville! My 1-year-old is so loved, cared for, and well taken care of every day. As a parent, it gives me so much peace of mind knowing that she is in a safe, nurturing, and happy environment. A very special thank you to Mrs. Jada and Chelsey! ❤️ They are incredibly caring, patient, and loving with my daughter, and you can truly see how much they care about the children. My little one feels comfortable and happy with them, which means everything to us. We are so grateful to have found Lakestone Academy and truly appreciate all the love and attention they give our daughter. I would highly recommend them to any parent looking for a caring and trustworthy daycare! ❤️"

We chose this school because we wanted a safe, caring environment where our child could learn and grow. Although we’ve only been here for two days, we’ve already had a great first impression of the teachers and staff. Everyone has been welcoming and helpful, and we appreciate how comfortable they’ve made us feel. We’re excited to see how much our child grows and learns throughout the year. I would tell another family that it seems like a warm and caring place where the staff truly wants the best for the children. ❤️
