Parent Testimonials

“We love everything about Kiddie Academy Kirkland. Our son went there since he was 1 yr old to when he started KG. His sister is there now and we're looking forward to her staying there all the way as well. The biggest reason is the amazing, caring, nurturing teachers, staff and management. Tons of timely activities, play time, smiles and laughter. We love how KIK celebrates very diverse holidays and occasions, and how they instill the concept of giving and reading from the library at such an early age. Great, healthy snacks and food to make it well rounded.”

“My child is happy and I can see all the new things she is learning. We enjoy the tadpoles app. We like the flexibility of choosing our days she attends.”

“The care/love my child receives and how much my son is really learning. He is far more ahead than I would have ever expected at his age right now.”

“I love teachers and all staffs! They are very friendly and truly care for children. It makes children to feel KA is a fun, safe place they can rely on. I also like the total surveillance system - I can watch kids from classroom and also the playgrounds. I like the various projects teachers make kids engage. My kid showed a huge improvement on communicating verbally, writing/drawing, etc. I also like how the management team is responsive and always keeps us well-informed. What I wish - During screen time - The monitor is huge, and I see kids sit right before the screen. That is not good for eyes. They should be a lot further to the back. During outside playtime - This is the most fun time and my kid loves playing outside! But sometimes (once in a while), kids can get a bit aggressive. I wish teachers who monitor kids during outside playtime could stop bad behavior or physical fighting if there is any - For example, there was a kid who kept pulling the hood of my kid's hooded jacket hard while running around causing my kid fall down several times on the floor. He kept pulling my kid's hood repeatedly and dragged my kid around by grabbing the hood for 10-15 minutes and my kid didn't like it but no one stopped it. When that kid pulled the hat, the metalic zipper of my kid's jacket kept hitting the frontal neck of my kid and it may have been somewhat choking the neck. I wish the teacher could have stopped that kid. I know he was just playing, but kids need to learn to 'stop' when someone says 'no'. Thank you!”

“Really appreciate everything they’re doing to keep kids safe with Covid precautions. ”

“The curriculum and activities are designed perfectly according to the age of the kids to help them learn and grow.”

“Very transparent, you put time and effort into a good curriculum. Quick response to any questions we have. Cameras so we can always check in if we miss our kids. Excellent job dealing with the covid pandemic. ”

“Great facility for my kid. Teachers are very caring ❤ ”

“Everything. Duke is way ahead of the curve and continues to thrive. We are so pleased with his progress and confident we have a thorough understanding of what kind of student he will be. The teachers and aides are attentive, informative and connected to Duke.”

“I like the daily updates and the fact that everyone seems to know my child from the directors to the teachers. They share stories from his day with me and everyone is always so welcoming and friendly from drop-off to pick-up. They are excited to help him reach milestones and make me feel at ease that they are loving him when I’m not there.”

“I like the fact that the children are learning all different things daily. I like the fact that you can communicate with the teachers on the Tadpole app. ”

“We love this daycare so much. Our son gets so excited to go everyday to see his friends, and lovely teachers! Everyone who works here is so personable, kind and they all just love the kids. I definitely recommend this daycare to families.”

“1) The swift and clear communication from Ms. Erin on next steps in case Covid case detection or RSV detection has been appreciated by our household, clarity is valued even more in today's time! 2) I like the detailed report on what my child eats, how many times he goes to pee and activities he did; it makes me feel like a part of his day and gives me conversation openers at home 3) I really really appreciate all the precautions and Covid 19 protocols followed by teachers and the center. I can't thank teachers enough for wearing those masks entire day- please know you are appreciated! 4) I like the curriculum and exposure to different activities as my child is keen and curious to learn, I would love to see more variety in activities now since he is over 2 years old 5) I appreciate a balanced healthy meal for my child and that always remains a focus when I read daily reports”
