Hear from our parents

“Great activities and learning opportunities for kids! Good variety of healthy foods for breakfast and lunch. And a staff that really cares! ”
Rebecca S., Wilmington

“I Love the KA staff... we have come a long way since we started there. It is pricier than others but I also understand you pay for what you get. $310 a week is a LOT of money and that is the only reason I gave a 9. Love KA though ”
Eryn J., Wilmington

Adam B., Wilmington

Casie G., Wilmington

“Friendly, welcoming, safe environment. Transparent curriculum and daily updates. ”
