My husband and I have used COI for all of our children over the last 11 years. I highly recommend…read moreCOI! Great staff and the owner is fabulous! They are very warming and understandable I would consider them more of a family than a daycare. My daughter started kindergarten this year and I was told that she is very advanced for her age in fact all my kids were when they started kindergarten and I believe it's because COI gave our children the tools needed to succeed.

My son has been attending COI for a little under a year. We are beyond happy we found this place!…read moreThe teachers and staff are great at communicating. There is a parent portal and even a curriculum portal. It is wonderful to have this type of transparency with the care of my child. Payments are weekly along with a small (compared to others) annual fee. They have a secure door (with pass code) with the door handle up high so the little ones cannot accidentally get out. Food and snacks are included in cost. They have great family events as well! We are excited to continue care for our son here for as long as possible.

Absolutely LOVE this preschool!!! After interviewing a few daycare choices for my infant son, this…read moreplace checked all of the boxes! Ms. Noris is an absolute gem and so personable that I literally felt at home, or that I somehow knew her... I just knew this was the place! The entire staff is great! They're super attentive with the kids and work one-on-one with sensory games, singing, dancing, etc. The facility is super safe with an app for check in/out, and that monitors your child's daily activities (feedings, diaper changes, etc.). They also have a camera system which is an absolute plus!! I recently learned they also offer a Parents Night Out once a month! I LOVE looking at all of the photos the teachers snap throughout the day as well; surely helps when we can't be with them while at work. If you're searching for a daycare/preschool, hands down, this is the ONE!

Coach Juliette has made such a difference for our daughter on our swim journey. While she still…read moredoesn't exactly look forward to swim lessons yet (hopefully some day!), her pre-class nerves immediately calm down when I remind her that Coach Juliette will be with her -- and that says everything. Coach Juliette is incredibly patient and somehow makes each lesson feel light and fun...even for the most anxious of swimmers. She meets our daughter exactly where she is, handling her anxiety with so much care and understanding. She never pushes too hard, but gently encourages just enough to build confidence each week. We're so grateful for her!

WARNING! I rarely…read moreleave negative reviews, but I feel other parents should know what to expect before enrolling. My biggest piece of advice is: visit the facility before signing up. I attended one Parent & Tot class, and the first thing I noticed when I walked into the pool area was the overwhelming smell of chlorine. It was so strong that it burned my nose and eyes. I was told the pool's chlorine levels are maintained within a safe range, but based on my experience, I found that very hard to believe. As a parent bringing my baby into the water, that immediately made me uncomfortable. I was also surprised by how many classes were happening at the same time. If you're expecting a calm, relaxing environment for your baby to get comfortable in the water, this isn't it. The pool was crowded, noisy, and chaotic, with several classes taking place simultaneously. It was overstimulating for both me and my child and did not feel like the ideal setting for a toddler swim lesson. What was even more disappointing was the enrollment process. The cancellation policy was not explained clearly at all. You are charged for the current month and the following month, and if you decide the program isn't a good fit after your first class, you're still responsible for paying for the next month unless you cancel before the first day of that month. I wish this had been communicated clearly before I signed up instead of discovering it afterward. It felt misleading and left me feeling stuck paying for services I no longer wanted. Between the overpowering chlorine smell, the chaotic class environment, and the lack of transparency regarding their billing and cancellation policies, my experience was extremely disappointing. There are plenty of swim schools in the Tampa area, and after this experience, I would encourage parents to explore other options before committing here.

I am very pleased with kids cove academy in comparison to some other daycares I won't mention. Let's just say I switched five daycares in one year because I didn't see these other daycares meeting my children's needs. I wasn't just a parent who drops off and picks up I saw within as a worker and as a parent before kids cove became kids cove there was also Little Giants off Big Bend and Kids Cove Academy are probably the top two in the Riverview area & everything else is pretty average. I can say this because I either sent my children there or I worked there in the past ( five years ago or so) so I don't know how other child centers are now, but I want to compliment these two centers. Ms. Maribel & Ms. Chethana are excellent teachers & I'd recommend them both to anyone in the Riverview area needing VPK services.

I started send my son in 11/2023 and told them he is autistic and wanted to make sure they are able…read morehandle that. I was told yes and told they have cameras and etc. Things were going good but then a new teacher started after the new teacher I notice my son started acting odd. Then 1/31 I had my son tested for autism and he was on the spectrum. I shared this with the center and director. After this I started getting reports daily over stupid things and was getting concern, they were targeting my son. I called corp concern they reassure me this is not the case. Fast forward April 1 2024, I saw the police was at daycare when I went to go pick by 2 year old son up. When I walked through the doors the director was calling me about what was going on. I guess the teacher was aggressively handling my child and another parent saw it was super concern. The daycare DID NOT CALL THE POLICE! This parent sat there for 2 hours and were the ones that called the police. This daycare wanted the owner show up before calling the police. Even the policy told me they were trying hide the incident. There are NO RECORDING for this because TLE does no record footage at all. This teacher was out of ratio 1 teacher to 21 kids during nap time. They didn't call me for 5 hours after this happened. My son had a bruise on his back. They told me at first Ms. Lacey was not being fired for it which was a lie! The director quit right after this. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE!!!

Five stars for their birthday parties…read more We've attended a couple birthday parties here now and they're always a blast. The woman who leads it has always been the same (and I feel terrible for not knowing her name.) She is high energy, great with kids, and her super power is knowing every child's name. It's amazing! The kids are led through a ton of different gymnastics courses that pretty much any age can do. My son is four and loved it. It's interactive enough that they usually aren't just standing in line waiting but always moving. The room upstairs is then used for food and cake time. Then back downstairs for free play, which the children always love. Parents can keep their shoes on, which I appreciate. Kids are barefoot. They always take a group picture that they organize so the birthday party walks away with a wonderful picture.

This…read morewas my first time, and I was surprised at how crowded it was for the kids, yet it was very organized. I went upstairs to the sitting area for watching the kids below. It was very crowed up there, too. The class started on time, and for a small group of 2 years olds, they really got a workout. (and the parent too) The rule is, no one on the floor without a teacher and for the little ones, a parent also participates as an extra helper. There was a routine that the group went through, which included fun and challenging activities. They use a balance beam, a rock wall, a zip line into a foam pit, and a bunch of floor exercises. My grandson was very happy to be there, and I was really happy to have been able to come see him burn off lots of toddler energy. The parking area was quite crowded but there was enough parking and there was also a swim school attached to the gymnastics building. (He also does swim lessons, which he also loves.) The facility is not very modern but then, it has everything at reasonable prices.
