Just Kids has a great team of teachers and assistants who are dependable, caring, supportive and dedicated to children’s growth. I am grateful for their commitment in serving my little one and their communication over the years.

I don’t even know where to start. I enrolled my oldest son when he was about 2 and a half almost 3 years old. After having a bad experience at a local daycare I used to hold near and dear to my heart. I found our forever home in childcare! The owners Barb and Diane are wonderful. They are professional they communicate and are reliable. My son started at this school timid, shy and what other childcare providers would say is “worried he is not up to par”. Not even 6 months later my son had developed so many more words into sentences, independence, and more. If it were for Just Kids I don’t think he would of evolved the way he did. We love them so much my youngest son has been enrolled since an infant at 3 months old and my soon to be newborn will be the newest member in November. Not to mention the teachers are outstanding! They are patient, attentive, and involved! Safe to say my husband and I will continue to keep our children in this center at all costs! We are forever grateful and couldn’t thank them enough!

I have a child that is in the older Toddler room and one in the infant room and The staff has always been professional, welcoming and caring for both of my children. I love the fact that they are organized and structured. Nothing gets lost, missed placed or overlooked. The teachers are responsive and engaging. It’s a pleasure to know that my children are excited to go to school each day. I would definitely recommend just kids learning center for children of all ages.

My family and I have been a part of Just Kids Learning Center for over 13 years. We have two children who have already gone through the center, and continue to choose Just Kids for our youngest child. The owners, Barb and Diane, have created a thriving center which encourages the children to grow emotionally, physically, and mentally. During Covid, Barb and Diane fought hard to keep the families in the center and the staff well cared for. There was excellent communication for what we could expect. I feel my child is completely safe at the center knowing how seriously Barb and Diane take everyone’s well-being.My children have always been excited for their day at “school” with their teachers. The majority of the staff have been there for years, with several of them being there as long as my family has been going there. This consistency has so many advantages. The staff get to know the children and their families very well and therefore are better able to help the children with their individual needs. I have never worried about my children’s safety while at Just Kids. In fact, the owners and staff have alerted me when my child was a bit off/was tugging more at an ear/etc. Only because the staff was so caring and observant, was I able to figure out that the signs/symptoms of an ear infection looked much different than “normal” in my middle child compared to most kids.We absolutely adore the owners and staff at Just Kids. I am so grateful my little ones have gotten to grow up with such caring adults to help guide them. I cannot say enough about the kindness, fairness, and support the owners and staff have provided to my children over the past decade!

Both of my children started at Just Kids in 2015/2016 (in the infant or early toddler room) and both stayed until Kindergarten. My wife and I spent a lot of time researching local daycare centers and could not be happier with our decision to go with Just Kids. We have not had a single bad experience at the center and without hesitation highly recommend them.Just Kids is a low-tech operation and in hindsight we feel the pros outweigh the cons. They don’t have live streaming cameras like some of the other centers we visited. However, the center is on a single floor (no stairs) with two main rooms and an open floor plan – you can see almost the entire space from anywhere, so there really is very little opportunity for someone to be alone with your child. We also liked that the outdoor area the kids play in is connected to the back of the building and fenced in so there is no opportunity for the kids to wander off when transitioning to an outdoor play area. You won’t get pictures of your kids sent to you from the teachers throughout the day like some centers do, but this is by design and allows the teachers to stay fully focused on the kids.Most importantly, the staff is fantastic – professional and sincerely invested in the well-being of the kids. Barbara and Diane, who co-own the center, are exactly who you want to care of your kids – they are good, responsible, caring people and run a tight ship. Another reviewer mentioned that many of the same people are still with the center that were there when their kids started. This is true and I agree it says a lot about the environment they have created. When I drop my daughter off, it is almost always one of the co-owners that greets you. Same goes for pickup.Our son transitioned well from Just Kids to Kindergarten and we felt like he was adequately prepared by their Pre-K program.Also – with respect to Covid, we felt like their procedures to minimize the risk of infection and communication with the families were as good as you can get under the circumstances.

Both of our daughters attended JKLC since 2018. You can tell that Barb and Diane really care about the children and their staff. Many of the teachers were the same during our time there and had been there several years before we arrived. Our girls loved their time at JKLC - always excited to see their friends and teachers every morning. It made it drop-offs much easier as a parent, knowing my kids were happy and well taken care of.

I couldn’t ask for a better pre-k experience for my daughter! This was the first place we toured and we had no regrets choosing Just Kids. All of the teachers were super friendly and welcoming! Barb & Diane were both great and made sure things ran smoothly, especially during a pandemic. My daughter loved going and she is going to miss it so much!

Being a first time mom I wasn't I was devastated when faced with having to go back to work. The search to find complete strangers to care for my 3 month old son was painstaking! So many facilities from the fancy schmancy chains, a nanny ($$) and the smaller mommy daycares nothing felt good enough. My mom in law suggested "a place right around the corner" from her so without any high hopes I had made an appointment.I dragged my husband with me this time to prove I wasn't being "too picky"! As I recall Miss Barbara had meet us at the door to take us on our tour. It wasn't the fanciest of daycares. Clean & neat but what took me right away was the atmosphere. I was prepared for the normal loud chaos of children yelling & playing, as they do, but that wasn't really the case granted there were children all around us but it was organized.The infant room had 3 teachers, they explained the feeding & napping schedules, the cleaning & safety procedures. I had my list of questions/concerns but she answered most before I even had to ask. Each baby/child had there own little day diary, the sweetest thing! We went into each class and the children l greeted her with smiles and even a hug! The teachers were interacting with children and everyone seemed engaged...the older toddler cleaning up their areas after snack time it was soo pleasant!I turned to my husband and he kinda whispered "Come on now, this place is great!" and I agreed promising him that none of them were like this!! I knew before leaving that this was the place!Well that was over 3 years ago. Just Kids is a part of our extended family! My son loves everyone! Not just his current teachers but most of the staff. He has a diverse group of friends who he constantly talks about wanting to go play with! We feel like we know them all personally. My sons vocabulary & communication skills are as his pediatrician noted "advanced". He has been fully potty trained with the pivotal support of Just Kids helping accomplish that milestone. Our son was taught a few keys sign language words and uses them to this day. He has learned all kinds of things; colors, weather, animals, seasons, holidays I can not say enough about the kind, loving and knowledgeable staff!Truly a blessing! I highly reommend.

I moved here about a year ago. I was already on edge because I didnt really know anyone or anywhere around here. I had my concerns like any other parent dropping their kids off at a new daycare in a new area that we weren’t use too! WELL LET ME TELL YOU..... It’s been a year that my two sons have been attending JUST KIDS and I couldn’t be more happy that we send them here four days a week! The piece of mind alone knowing how ALL the teachers take care of my kids and make sure they are fed different kinds of food and help them thrive day after day is worth it alone! Not to mention how happy and excited my kids are to go their each morning! I can’t thank JUST KIDS enough for their special attention to detail and for the advice they give us and MOST IMPORTANTLY... the LOVE AND CARE they give my sons who are my life! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU JUST KIDS! You have helped make this difficult year less difficult when it comes to my kids and their daycare! We love yas and appreciate everything you do for us! ?❤️

Just Kid's is wonderful. Our 2 boys started there as infants since 2013. It has been a great experience. Barbara and Diane do a great job running the place. A lot of the same staff have been there since we started so you know they are doing it right.

I have been taking my son to this center and ive never seen him been so more excited about anything then goung everyday. I love the teachers and the interaction they have with the children. I highly recommend this center to anyone looking to brighten your childrens day. They have karate each Thursday. Computer TOTs to teach your child about how to use and learn what they can do on it. My son's vocabulary has excelled over night. He knows how to spell, read, write words, and even tell time. I know you may look at it when you walk into it as your everyday day care. But there is so much more about this place. Love and patients with a great staff.
