  • My son has been going here since he was an infant. The place has been great at all times. The director is always available and willing to help and all of the teachers for each room level have been amazing with him! The facility is always very clean and organized! I would highly recommend using KidFit. Thank you!

  • We absolutely loved it here. Our daughter went here for over a year. She learned so much. It was very clean. Just shy of our first year they increased prices. When we could no longer afford $300 a week and we opted for part time care. It allowed her to still see her friends but also get a break from being home with me while I worked. Just after a month of us doing part time they informed us that the owner wanted to do away with part time care for toddlers. In less than a weeks time they would be charging us the full $300 even if she was only going part time. It really felt like they were just trying to push us out to open her spot. Two stars because we loved our teachers and we miss them. Zero stars for the greedy owner.

  • KidFit Daycare has been an incredible place for my three kiddos to grow, develop and learn! The teachers are top-notch and the ownership, management/directors are amazing people who support us so well. The culture is like family and is very inviting. Not too big, not too small. I can't recommend KidFit enough!

  • This is a review of the summer program only as we have never utilized the normal daycare program . When we toured the facility it was sold to us that the kids would be incredibly active, spend majority of their day outside and have lunch provided.That activities would be structured. None of this has been the case and our son begs to not go daily. He has been in formal care centers since infancy and we have never had these issues.He even started begging for a cell phone so he could call us to come get him when he is getting yelled at. Communication is very poor, I don’t feel the product promised is the one we got and concerns that we voiced were very much dismissed. At $200 a week we expected higher quality care. After voicing concerns with specific examples we were essentially told summer is almost over and no action plan was developed to help us partner more effectively. None of the concerns were addressed. Due to this we removed our child from care effective immediately despite the fact the decision cost us $200. That is how strongly we felt we could not be confident in the environment he was in. I personally would not return nor recommend. Gave 2 stars as he was kept alive and Uninjured.

  • The director and staff are all friendly and genuinely care about kids. The facility is incredibly clean and conveniently located. We had no issues during our time here and would recommend it to anyone.

  • I highly recommend Kidfit daycare. The facility it absolutely beautiful. The teachers are incredibly caring, patient, and kind. Communication is always outstanding. They LISTENED to their families and will continue serving lunches. We are so excited to see what comes of the huge playground fundraiser! Most importantly, I never have doubts when leaving my children in their care. I know they are well cared for. Especially, when they beg to stay at the end of the day.
