Very personable, super nice staff super clean building overall nice facility - Angela T. on 05/11/2022

All of the directors know my son and participate in/organize fun activities and events for all of the kids. The teachers have positive and helpful feedback about my sons learning and behaviors, they all treat him with kindness. He loves going to Kiddie Academy and playing with his teachers and classmates. The communication from the directors was a big selling point for me, I had looked at other facilities that barely responded to my emails for information so I knew they wouldn’t communicate about my child. I have not had that problem here, I’m updated every day he attends and the staff communicates well and responds quickly. I recommend Kiddie Academy to all of my friends! - Sara D. on 05/11/2022

I love how involved the whole staff is, from the owner, to the directors, to the teachers. My child was always so excited to go to daycare and she learned so much here, both in education and life skills. The structure and lesson plans are great, I love how we receive a end of day report about our child's day and what she learned/did. Our child has tried new foods, learned different languages, and how to play well with others and calm herself down when she is upset. This place is exceptional! - Kaylynn F. on 04/26/2022

The teacher to student ratio, the attention to details, every teacher knows the names of all the children in the building, if there are specifics needs your child requires they accomplish those tasks. Great school, faculty and staff!! - Brittany S. on 04/06/2022
