We sent both of our daughters to WellSpring from age 2 through PreK. I cannot say enough about how wonderful this program is. The teachers care about each child so much and are intentional about meeting their emotional needs as well as providing them with fun activities and education. Both of my girls were sad to leave WellSpring, but they are also academically prepared for kindergarten thanks to this program!

We have sent our daughter to WellSpring the last two years and are so happy with our decision. She has received a great faith-based education that has prepared her for kindergarten. She loved going to school every day and was always excited to tell us about her day. Love this school, love the staff, and I am really going to miss it!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this preschool and their teachers. My daughter loved going to school here. Watching her blossom in such an amazing environment has been a blessing. I recommend this school to any parent with preschool-aged children.

Absolutely love TAWS! We have been a part of TAWS for four years now. My son was in the 3s, 4s, and graduated PreK, and our daughter has been in the 2s, 3s, and is starting PreK in the fall. We have loved every teacher we’ve had, and our children enjoyed going to school! We love that they are learning academics as well as biblical truths, having playtime with friends, being able to play outside, go to music and movement class (Ms. Kelli is fantastic!) and being a part of a community that is like no other preschool we’ve seen. The Director is extremely organized, welcomes families every morning and really partners with you! There is communication from the teacher daily with photos sent, and school/artwork sent home. All the teachers go above and beyond creating special events and activities! When we relocated to Spring Hill in 2017, TAWS really filled the gap for us during this season in our lives with little ones! So grateful!

WellSpring far exceeded my expectations for my daughter’s PreK experience. The entire staff is amazing. Everyone truly cares about the kids. Real community-feel! We will both miss TAWS!

My son attended the Academy at WellSpring for the 23/24 school year for PreK, and I cannot say enough good things about this place! I am actually sad that we will not be there anymore. My son’s teacher is literally an angel on earth. My son would actually cry if he had to miss school. The staff is amazing and there is not one single person that I met there that I doubted their love for my child. My son is completely ready for kindergarten!

We have absolutely loved TAWS! My firstborn went for 3 years and now my middle is about to start. Looking forward to sending my youngest in a few years. Every staff member I’ve ever encountered there is amazing, and my son learned so much in his time there. I don’t have a single negative opinion about this school.

This preschool, in my opinion, is the best! My son loved attending and thrived there. The teachers are always warm and welcoming and intentional. If you are seeking a Christian upbringing outside of your home, this is the best place for your child.

We love TAWS! Sending our first child to preschool was full of new-parent, anxious feelings. What we found at The Academy at WellSpring was peace, a prayerful and fun-loving environment, and a home-away-from-home! Since our first, we have now sent all three of our children to TAWS. They come home happy, full of life, and well-loved. We couldn’t be more pleased with our time in this precious preschool!

We first heard about The Academy at WellSpring through a friend that I worked with, so when it was time to put our oldest son in a program, we decided to enroll him at TAWS. Palmer has been here since he was two years old and now he’s finishing up his Pre-K year. Our younger son, Harrison, couldn’t wait to start going to school and is finally enjoying his first year. He absolutely loves his new friends and teachers. We are so impressed with the love and compassion that these teachers and staff have for our children. Having the Christian foundation is what is most important for us, so much so that we made Wellspring our church home as well. We love this place! The entire staff always make us all feel so special and welcome. Palmer stills runs up to his old teachers for hugs and smiles. Knowing this is his last few months here is a bit sad, but to see him excel in this environment is so rewarding as a parent. We couldn’t ask for a better place to watch our boys grow and learn!

Our family has been incredibly blessed to send both our children to The Academy at WellSpring! We are forever grateful to the teachers and staff for helping to establish a love of learning in our kids, and most importantly for showing them the love of Jesus. I am also thankful for the peace of mind I have when I dropping off my kids each morning. I know they are not only safe, but also well loved and cared for. The adoration my kids have for all their teachers shows me that the time they spend at preschool is in a safe and loving environment. I love seeing the joy and excitement in their eyes as they tell me about their day and all they learned. If it were possible to send them to The Academy past Pre-K, I would have done so! The Academy at WellSpring will always hold a special place in our hearts!

What can I say about The Academy at Wellspring? What an absolutely perfect place for my children to have their first experiences with teachers, school, Jesus, singing, learning, growing, friends, etc. etc. etc. When I first sent my 2 year old daughter there, it was the first time that anyone outside of my family had ever watched her. Though we were nervous on how our little girl’s first day, we were never nervous about the type of care that she was receiving. I know that she was being cared for with as much love as she would be in my own care.
My daughter did great on her first day. My son tested the limits and almost didn’t make it in the two-year-old class. He was and still is an intense little man, and very difficult to handle (especially when Momma and Daddy aren’t around). The sweet Christian women at TAWS kept the faith alive. He made it a little longer each day; by one month in to the school year, he was growing, speaking more, playing, singing (songs about Jesus!), and loving his little friends and teachers.
This wonderful place even brought us back to church. We were unable to attend church since our son’s birth, because he would cry and scream whenever we would try to put him in the nursery. But after a month at TAWS, we were able to start visiting WellSpring on Sunday mornings—our son felt so comfortable in the building that he enjoyed being in WellSpring’s nursery!!!
We have so much to be thankful for with TAWS and the women that work there. This wonderful staff truly loves my children. In a world where we are constantly questioning every parenting decision that we make, it feels very good to know that our decision to send them to TAWS was the right one. This preschool has done an outstanding job creating the foundation of Christian beliefs for my kids, as well as the necessary tools they’ll need to begin elementary school. We just love this special special place and blessed to have come across it when we did. I kinda wish that I could go there, too!
