Everyone is nice, professional, and cares for my kid. And he comes every week learning new things! Also, the educators are on top of the developmental stages - often advising me on new transitions and what I should be paying attention to at home. - Steve P. on 10/29/2019

Consistency, and positive reinforcement. - Shayla E. on 10/28/2019

Tyler has learned truly everything from kiddie academy. We credit his teachers with the patience to show him how to walk, eat and play with others. We can’t thank them enough for the love and support they’ve shown our son his first year in school. - Emily T. on 10/27/2019

We transferred to Kiddie Academy from another nearby child care center. Comparing our experience with the two facilities is like night and day. Some general things we love are: 1. The teachers are engaged. The teachers seem genuinely invested in our kid's learning and enrichment. There is always a teacher down on the floor with the kids. The kids adore the teachers. At the old day care, our daughter was never that excited to see any of the teachers. At Kiddie Academy, she runs to give each of her teachers a hug each morning which makes me feel great when I drop her off in the morning. We love that their is a predictable schedule each day, so our daughter knows how the day goes even when her favorite teachers aren't there. We love that there are structured circle times to prep the kids for pre-school/kindergarten. We love that the teachers read to the kids every day and they make the books an interactive experience. Our daughter has come home many a time showing off a new sign, new sound, or new skill that she's learned at daycare. 2. Kiddie Academy handling meals for the day. At our previous daycare, we had to provide all food and all the obnoxious labeling associated with that. We didn't realize how much time that preparation was sucking out of our day until we came to Kiddie Academy. It is so nice to only worry about sippy cups and the nap mat. 3. Everyone is considerate of the parents. Drop off and pick up is very simple. The teachers are so good about using smocks and bibs for eating messy foods and art projects, that most days our daughter comes home in the same outfit that we dropped her off in and it's still clean! At the old day care, they would go through 4 outfits a day and we'd have to do laundry twice a week. I appreciate that attention to detail and it helps enforce the feeling that we know our daughter is in good hands at Kiddie Academy. Even having the sippy cup ready with water at pick up has been a nice touch that we appreciate. That has pr - Lewis H. on 10/22/2019

Very caring and attention to detail. - Michelle S. on 09/16/2019

I do appreciate the lesson plan based learning. Sadly I haven’t had a lot of time to work with my son on numbers or colors, hit the teachers in his class are covered all the basics really well. - Kathleen L. on 09/01/2019
