  I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kiddie Academy. My daughter started here at 4 months old (she is now 7 months), and as a very anxious first-time mom, I was so nervous about leaving her in someone else’s care. From day one, the infant teachers and staff made us feel completely at ease. Every teacher is extremely patient, gentle, and genuinely loving toward all the babies. Thank you Ms. Vivian and Ms. Ashley and Miss Jennie. You can tell they truly enjoy what they do. They take the time to comfort the little ones, help them learn, and celebrate every small milestone. It has been amazing to watch my baby—and all the other babies—grow, develop new skills, and reach milestones early thanks to the nurturing environment here. The communication has been excellent, and I always feel reassured knowing she is in such capable and caring hands. I am so grateful for the entire team in the infant room. Thank you for everything you do for our daughter and all the babies!

  Kiddie Academy was recommended by our neighbor when we moved in, he moved about a year later. We have has a wonderful experience there and know our kids are safe and taken care of. It has been so wonderful to see everything they are working on. WAY more than I would be able to do or a sitter in our home.

  I have sent both my babies here and would do it again in a heartbeat. They treat my children like family, they’re clean and transparent, they educate them consistently and effectively- my son was ahead of the curve when he went to kindergarten. They are always responsive to our needs and flexible when things go sideways. Cannot recommend this place enough.

  Best daycare around! The staff and management are truly amazing! The director Candace has 5 girls very nurturing always there to listen and help. I have 3 girls that attend kiddie the youngest being 8 months old which I was able to go back to work knowing I could drop her off and she was in the best of the best hands. The staff genuinely looks happy all the time and wanting to be there. Kiddie has become family to us over the years. Exceptional very clean girls got a great education and met tons of friends which my oldest now being in kindergarten still keeps in contact with and always wants to go in to see everyone at kiddie when I pick up my other two. Ms Kelly in my 3yr old room is excellent with my daughter and Ms Steph who is with my 8 month old. However the whole staff and management are truly amazing and a blessing so grateful to have them!

  Kiddie Academy has been a second home to my 5 children. My oldest is 14 and she started at 3 months old. They look forward to seeing the staff and other children at the center. The teachers have become family. They are greeted with warm welcomes. Kiddie has created a foundation for my girls to love learning! From the owner Miss Carin, who has the biggest heart and gives her everything to make Kiddie Academy what it is, to the loving environment that makes Kiddie a community. We absolutely love it!
