My daughter has been attending Kids Academy since 2017 and my son since 2020, and it feels like a second home for them. Many of the teachers who were there when my now five-year-old started as a baby are still there now taking care of my three-year-old. They did a great job keeping everyone safe during the pandemic and managed to close for only two and a half months. It has all the convenience of a corporate daycare center, but has a tight-knit family vibe, which is nice. Probably the biggest con is that they don't provide lunch, so we have to pack their lunches every day. They do provide breakfast and an afternoon snack, though. You can tell the teachers genuinely love and care for the kids. My daughter had some behavioral issues when she was three, and they were so patient with her and worked with her and us to get her through it, which I really appreciate. My daughter will be going there a few days a week this summer, and they have fun field trips planned three days a week for the school-aged kids. Next year will be my son's last year there full-time, and I'm genuinely bummed about it!

If you're considering this daycare, keep in mind that they eagerly kick kids out. They did it with my 2-year old, leaving us in a bind. So rather than handle the situation with a child who's completely malleable, they decided they didn't care anymore and threw him out like a piece of trash. It's been 6 years since this happened, and we've had NO issues at other local daycares. I would never send my kids back here. Also, their Step-up-to-Quality rating at the time was 1/5 stars.

We love Kids Academy! Both of our girls (12 and 7 yrs) have gone here all their lives and we love them like family! We adore the teachers - they help our children with schoolwork, teach correct social interactions and are love our kids! It makes us sad that our oldest will “age out” this year, but she says she’ll be back as an employee in a few years!

Kids Academy has been like a second home not to just myself as a work place, but to my 2 children whom have gone here since they were 6 weeks. I have a childhood development background and I have seen some centers that definitely are an eye opener. I would not want my children going anywhere else, but here where they are loved and well taken care of by each staff member.

I have worked here for the last 6 and a half years. I had my first child while working here and I never once questioned if she would be in good hands. I love working here and I love taking my child here. She comes home and tells me everything she has learned and her teachers are soo good with her. I wouldn't take my kid anywhere else. She loves kids academy !

Do not go here! They claim to be all inclusive but the second your child has issues of any kind they kick them out. My son who has special needs was only there for less than 2 weeks and I was called to pick him up cause he wouldn't nap and it was interfering with the director's meetings. Apprently meetings and staff come first and the children come last. Such a horrible place they did 20min on how horrible my child is!

We absolutely loved Kids Academy all 4 years that our son attended! The teachers/caregivers all treated him like one of their own, it was always clean and they have wonderful programs and plays for their preschoolers in preparation for Kindergarten! Unfortunately, it's a little more than we can afford for our daughter to go their now - the prices have increased quite a bit since our son first started. They definitely put the funds back into the center though - they have a lovely new playground, regularly get new toys for each classroom and provide a lot of craft and school supplies as well. We will miss Kids Academy and are so incredibly thankful to the entire staff for being our "village" and helping us to care for a teach our son!

Horrible place, a friend has worked here for years and has told me stories. Not nice staff. Do not take your children here. They are not nice to them in any way

We have had all four of our children attend Kids Academy over the past 11 years and I recommend them to anyone who asks about childcare. They are our second family to our children and the kids love all their teachers. They are family owned and operated and truly treat their students like their own children. Can't say enough good about Veronica, Jackie, and the rest of the gang!!

We were really nervous about taking our son to daycare. As new parents, it's hard to hand over basically your entire world to people you really don't know that well. However, after over a year of taking out little guy to Kids Academy, we both agree that it was one of the best decisions we've made as parents. The atmosphere is way more like a school than a day care and the girls are always so sweet and caring. Our little guy is excited to go, has fun, and comes home having learned something new almost every day.
