About
Welcome to our wonderful school in Columbus, GA. Welcome to our wonderful school in Columbus, GA. My name is Lynn Tyson Price and I am the school director. It is important to me and my staff that every child receives quality care while in our program. We strive to ensure that parents feel safe and secure leaving their children with us and that those children leave every day with a smile on their faces. We know that early education plays an integral role in establishing a solid foundation for their child's educational journey. Our goal for students is to foster an environment where each child can challenge themselves and achieve success. As many of our staff are parents themselves, we understand how rewarding but also how demanding the role of a parent can be at times, especially a working parent. At our child care center, we are committed to providing a supportive community for the families we serve. We all want our students to be happy, nurtured, and provided with the best learning opportunities. All of our staff members are dedicated to providing a safe environment and assisting your child on their learning journey while giving them the freedom to explore and develop in a warm and caring environment. Please feel free to stop in for a tour or call to speak with a member of our team. We look forward to the opportunity to build a long-lasting relationship with your family!

Absolutely amazing infant room! Ms Gabby is the best and so is director Lynne. We were at another Childcare network in Columbus prior and were unhappy, and just finished our first week here and are beyond satisfied! My child absolutely loves Ms Gabby, I pick him up and he’s SO happy every day.

If you’re looking for an amazing place for your little then look no further ! Miss Andrea and all the teachers at this Childcare Network are the absolute best my girls have gone here since my oldest was just shy of 3 and my youngest was 6 weeks old and we have never had a single issue. I know my girls are loved and taken care of just like if they were home. They learn so much both come home singing new songs and telling me all the new things they know everyday ! ❤️

I have a 4 year old who has attended child care network since she was 1. She absolutely loves the facility. All of her teachers have taken wonderful care of her. She's happy to go to school in their pre-k program everyday and comes home ready to learn even more. Andrea, the director, loves each child like her own. I am so blessed to be able to breath easy knowing my child is in the best hands while I am working. I am even sending my 4 month old there for daycare services. Awesome staff, awesome facility!

My children have been attending Childcare network since August 2015. The staff is wonderful. The director, Ms. Andrea Pollard is amazing. She always greet us with a smile and will quickly address any concerns that you may have. My children love their teachers, Ms. Janice and Ms. Michael. They come home almost everyday sharing stories of their day. With Summer quickly approaching, my children have already expressed their excitement of attending this year which is filled with many fun-filled activities and field trips. We love the staff and look forward to an exciting summer with Childcare Network #175.

Ms. Vanessa and staff at #175 are very flexible, courteous, and great support for "the working parent". The center is always warm, inviting and clean for the children and parents. My son has been with the CCN family for over 3 years, starting with Pre-K and now is in 2nd grade and still a part of the CCN family's after-school program. He has learned social skills among many other here. Job Well Done!

My child has gone to this center for almost a year. Before coming here, I was very concerned with the care of my child. Karma has truly blossomed since attending Childcare network. The staff (Ms. Lynn) treats every child as if they are her own. Its a great feeling to have when the most precious part of your life is away from you for so long. The center is very clean and there is always something for my child to do and learn. Thank you Childcare Network. Sincerly, Lakeisha Bullock
