I am a former employee at a kids world in new albany , the management is a complete joke . They seemed really sweet at first when I was getting hired , but it quickly changed. They will get very mad that you call out sick if you work here , but keep sick children in the room all day long , teddy and Tammy claims “if they don’t have a fever they are not sick” which is not true . Every single kid in there is sick to the point they are coughing stuff up , runny noses , sneezing , crying , even had a INFINT get rushed to the hospital for being so sick but they would not do anything about it so an employee had to call the parents because teddy would not .There was also a live infested kid and i told them about it and they would not call the parents , they said there was absolutely NOTHING she could do about it. Teddy is very very very rude to you unless you’re giving her money . Tammy does absolutely nothing in there but make cold food . i was coming in at 6:30 in the morning and the food would already be made for breakfast when the kids don’t eat until about 8:00 . the kids will complain that the food is nasty and cold and on my first day teddy gave another kid milk that another kid did not finish because she did not want to go get another one ! I would be left alone with 10+ 2 year olds by myself , nobody would come help me , i could not leave the room because Tammy would never come help and i would have to wait for her to walk past to even get her attention, also another big thing is we are not allowed to have our phones in the rooms but what if there is an emergency and we have to call 911 and can’t get any help because they don’t do anything unless it is helping them out ! this place is an absolute JOKE . i’ve worked here for a month and have cried every single day of working here because it is absolutely humiliating! i have witnessed teddy and Tammy both throwing kids in rooms when they get there because they are screaming and crying that they don’t want to be there , everything in there is dirty , no cleaning supplies the only “cleaning supplies “ they have is bleach water, the sippy cups they use are all chewed up and nasty , the bathrooms have rust and stained toilet seats everywhere , it’s just nasty , STOP SENDING YOUR CHILDREN HERE ! STOP STOP STOP .

I should’ve read the reviews before accepting a job here. The management is a joke. They get upset when you get sick, but will keep a sick child in the room with you all day long. Incident reports are typically not written up when kids are hurt.The ratio of kids:adults was a nightmare. I was stuck in a room with 6+ 3 year olds by myself multiple days. Kids would attack me or other kids and they wouldn’t even remove the child from the room or do anything. Just left them in there to hurt others. (saw multiple kids bleed bc of other kids) There’s no way to signal for help or way to use the restroom or anything because you can’t leave your kids unattended. Kids are yelled at. They get pretty upset when kids don’t finish their food/milk. The food (whether it be breakfast, lunch, or a snack) is cold or stale. No wonder they don’t wanna finish it! The rooms lack anything enriching at all. There’s small holes in the wall next to the doors where bugs would commonly come inside. The state should definitely shut this place down soon. DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE!!

Whoever answers the phone is rude. Hung up on me before I could even ask about spots. She said “ a kids world “ then straight up hung up… Tone of voice you can tell she does not enjoy her job! So I called back. Asking her not to hang up on me again. She got very hasty. And before I could even say the ages I need care for she said “ no we don’t “ and hung up. Rudeeeeee

Just DONT.Debated on writing a review for awhile now but I’m still seeing this place recommended and I’m dumbstruck. The 2.3 rating surprised me because truthfully it should be much lower. I read some of the reviews on here that were good and I don’t entirely disagree, In my experience, it seems Teddy likes you a lot and wil be nice and accommodating when she knows you have money or you have family that work for the city government/have city connections. Other than that, you’re SOL. This is not a safe or friendly environment by a long shot. Children are very singled out and often times placed in rooms with too many children at once (my 3 year old has no business being in the room with 8 year olds), including children far older. My child was continuously bullied there and not once was I ever contacted, not once was the other family given warnings or penalized, even when there were physical marks left and this kid was doing this to several smaller kids not just mine. I also physically witnessed staff (Tammy) scream at the children to sit down and essentially do nothing while picking my own child up. I honestly have no idea how this place is still allowed to be open. It was just so bad but I had no real other options as I had just moved to the area and I was a nurse and they opened the earliest I could find.

This is the first and only Google review I think I’ve ever written in my life. I contemplated writing about the awful experiences at both locations but decided against it. I will only say that I would never recommend anyone sending their child(ren) here.

I worked at kids world for a little under a month. Tammy and Teddy force the children to eat and drink all of their food or the child will get in trouble. This happens at breakfast and lunch. I have seen food that is served at breakfast already out in the counter without anything covering it when I get to work at 6:30 food isn’t server till 7:30. Most of the time the children complain about it tasting nasty not only the food but the milk as well. The children are not allowed to have drinks in between breakfast and lunch. I have seen food that is so over cooked that it is as hard as a rock and under cooked it’s cold to the touch. The child ratio is never what it is supposed to be my first week almost every day I had more than I was supposed to. The class rooms have very little learning activity. When I would have a problem or needed to step out for a second to take a restroom break no one would show up to watch the kids. There are certain toys in the room that the child play with and almost always get hurt so I take them away to prevent that. Tammy will come in and give the toys right back to them after I have said the child should not have that toy they just got hurt with it by another child. I would never being my child to this daycare I would say at times it is borderline child endangerment/abuse. They should really be watch more closely and probably shut down.

I definitely do not recommend sending your child to this place. The phones never work and they are very disrespectful. I wouldn’t recommend working here too. They are not reasonable and do not care for their workers.

A Kids World is an outstanding childcare facility.We have been so impressed with the centre, its facilities and staff. I have watched my grandson develop amazing social skills and confidence. The educators have created an interactive, colourful and engaging environment for the kids and the activities they do each day are extremely fun. The food is also highly nutritious and a good variety to encourage good eating habitsWe appreciate the regular updates we get each day.I watch my grandson run into the centre happily each day and I feel confident knowing, he is well looked after.If you are looking for a childcare facility I highly recommend A Kids World. The owner Teddy will go out of her way to make your child feel comfortable and loved.

The owner teddy has nothing but attitude. she's rude. Straight rude. She should not be allowed around children at ALL. My child doesn't feel safe there, he's had multiple accidents and I wasn't aware of these accidents til I picked him up. I'm supposed to get a call as soon as it happens. I'm looking into another daycare just because of her and her mouth!
