Parent Testimonials

“They honestly care about each individual child”

“I like the way the daycare staff is very attentive to my daughter's needs. The love and care they show her makes me feel we are co-parenting together, we're a team!”

“The staff really cares about my child. Olga, the director encourages her staff to create a positive environment for kids.”

“I know my child is safe in your care, which is my number one concern. However, he loves to go to school. In fact, he asks to go, even on the weekends. He comes home with a larger vocabulary and better speech patterns every week. The teachers are helping him learn manners and are teaching him how to part of a community. So far we have not had one bad teacher. My child has become close to every teacher he has had in every classroom. We are so grateful we found Kiddie Academy of Lakewood Ranch when we moved to this part of Sarasota/Manatee.”

“Clean, friendly, good curriculum”

“There's nothing like Kiddie Academy of Fort Wayne! My kids love to be there and are very attached to the loving staff and management team!”

“The environment is always warm and welcoming. The staff always greets my child with a smile and provide an honest assessment of his day at pick up, even when that means telling me he had a rough day. As a parent it is extremely important that I REALLY know how he is doing so that I can help him with areas where he may be struggling and work towards improvement with his teachers. There are several avenues available for open communication and all staff members are accessible. It is nice to be able to communicate face-to-face, via phone, email, and the Tadpoles app. I love that the kids do all kinds of art projects and hands-on activities that revolve around their environment such as seasons and holidays. Kelsey does a wonderful job of being flexible and spontaneous with these projects. For example, they brought snow in to play with on their sensory table and even used snow to paint! The Early PreK room does a great job of balancing classrooms style education (letters, counting, etc.) with early childhood education through exploration such as sensory activities. The live video feed from the classroom is my absolute favorite thing. I LOVE being able to watch my child interact with other kids and see for myself how and what he is doing. It especially comforting to see him playing happily after a difficult drop off. It would be nice if the outdoor cameras also covers the toddler playground so that parents of young children can see outdoor play time as well.”

“How dedicated the staff is to helping each child's individual needs”

“Our children feel very comfortable with all of the teachers and students at Kiddie Academy. I am very open with the teachers and they are very welcoming when it comes to my questions, thoughts, or concerns.”

“I like how caring and warm the staff is. They're like an extension of our family!”

“Emilia just had her one-year anniversary of attending KAH and we are thrilled with her physical, emotional and intellectual progress. We are very comfortable with the team and know that she is well cared for, is learning a lot and is having a great time. We are so pleased with how the team has adapted the room and routine to keep pace with their developmental milestones. We give our highest recommendation and can't imagine her attending anywhere else or having a nanny. Thank you for all that you do!”

“Infant room staff is awesome”

“I love the small class sizes, the "open" feel and the ability for kids across all ages to interact. I would, however, like to have report cards to come to my email at the end of the day to discuss what the day was like, what happened, etc. My friend has this from her care center, and it's great.”

“I like that there are a given amount of teachers for a certain amount of children. To me it seems that the children are more taken care of and receive more one on one time which in turn helps them learn a lot more. My son has been going there since he was about one and it was the best decision that I could of ever made for him. He has learned so much that he surprises me half the time! Plus the teachers are really passionate about what they do and care for the kids and it truly shows. Whenever someone says that they are looking to put their child in daycare I mention Kiddie Academy and I have nothing but good things to say about them.”

“The entire staff is friendly and wonderful. We love our daughter's teachers, they are great with her. We always feel comfortable leaving her at Kiddie Academy.”
