Our daughter was in the Butterfly room with Ms. Andrea and just THRIVED at KCC. She loved going to school so so much. We are moving out of state, otherwise we would've kept her at KCC until preK. It is such an incredible, nurturing environment and the teachers are just wonderful. Our daughter is not even 3.5 and she can basically read! We love love love KCC and couldn't recommend it enough! read more

We have been very happy with KCC. The teachers are the best - kind, caring, hardworking, professional, organized, knowledgeable, communicative. I could go on and on with how much and why we love them. The center director manages everyone and everything beautifully. We fully trust the staff & director and feel like we are truly part of the KCC family. read more

We have had such a great experience at Kidz Creative Corner! The staff is kind, caring and engaging and our daughter loves going to school each day! She has learned so much in the past year that she has been enrolled. We highly recommend this center to anyone looking for a great experience with the best staff! read more

All three of my kids have attended KCC - they all started as infants, and they all thrived there! Every day they surprise me with how much they know and we owe it to the teachers at KCC. This is not just a daycare, but truly an early education center, and the teachers are always so kind and treat our kids with such compassion. We are moving soon and will miss everyone at KCC - thank you for being a part of our kids' lives for the last 5+ years! read more

My two year old has attended this center for almost a year and we couldn't be happier. He loves his teachers and is happy to attend each morning. read more

Our son has been attending Kidz Creative Corner on Western for 2 years, and we are very happy with this daycare. KCC has been a great environment for our son to learn and socialize. We are impressed with the teachers and their personalized attentiveness to our child. Overall, KCC has been an excellent experience for our family. read more

Our daughter started at KCC at 5 months old until we moved to a different city when she was 1.5 years old. We wished we could have brought the KCC with us to our new town, we absolutely loved and miss them! They made us feel confident that our daughter was safe and happy. I enjoyed that we could keep in touch throughout the day with the app. The KCC provides developmental updates on a regular basis. They offer plenty of picture days and scholastic book sales. Everyday at pick up the teachers always provided a little insight about our daughters day and how she did. We can't say enough good things about this daycare facility and staff! read more

Our daughter started at KCC around 2 years old and stayed for one year. Prior to that, she stayed at home with a nanny. So, picking the first school (especially during the height of COVID) was nerve-racking to say the least. We are so glad that we chose KCC! The director, teachers, and aides were truly amazing! They ensured our daughter was safe, loved, and intellectually stimulated. Her speech blossomed, her imagination took off, and her love for others (and even sharing with others!) increased with each day. We highly recommend KCC, and will miss them greatly! read more

KCC was amazing!!! Our daughter went there for three years. Don't know what we would have done without them. The day was structured and curriculum based. On top of the basics our daughter was exposed to Spanish, yoga and dance. Cannot say enough about the owners, managers and teachers. Thank for all you've done! read more

It has been a joy to watch our daughter learn and grown with her teachers and friends at KCC on Lincoln. She started in the infant room and has now graduated all the way up to the oldest kids room and we have been very happy with our experience. The teachers are fun and attentive to our daughter's academic and emotional growth, all while having fun! The owner and director are approachable, kind and communicative. I highly recommend KCC! read more

Great experience at KCC! Our daughter went there for nearly two years, until we moved to a new city. The staff clearly all love kids. Good communication from the directors. read more

Our son attended Kidz Creative Corner on Lincoln for nearly three years beginning as an infant. We were so happy with the care and education he received, and the teachers and staff truly care about each and every family. Our new daycare in the suburbs is impressed with how much our son already knows -- KCC did a great job preparing him for preschool. read more

All three of my children attended KCC throughout the years and I have nothing but positive things to say about the staff and facility. It is a tight knit community. The care that they provide is second to none. They show the kids so much love and attention and the director and owner are very receptive to parent feedback. I would consider myself a parent who has high standards for childcare and KCC far exceeded my expectations. They are warm, caring, loving and professional! Thank you for so many great years together! read more

If you are a parent who wants the best care for your child(ren), look no further! We have had the privilege of being a part of the KCC family for the past 3 years. My daughter started attending when she was an infant and has really flourished in her mental and physical development since being there. The focus at KCC is providing the best level of care for your child. That care, which is all-encompassing, provides them age appropriate education, activities that foster their fine and gross motor skills and plenty of play time! The teachers genuinely care about each and every child and provide daily updates and feedback regarding their daily activity and behavior. The director and owner willingly work with you regarding any concerns that you may have. Great small daycare with exceptional care! read more

We sent our daughter to KCC from the age of 3 months to two years old and only left because we moved too far away. KCC is a great place to send your child. The staff is warm, caring and knowledgeable and our daughter thrived there. As new parents, we also learned a lot from the staff at KCC. When we were having an issue, we consulted with them to make sure that there was consistency at home and at school. read more

Our 2 year old daughter has been at KCC since she was an infant (starting at the Western location and then moving to Lincoln when a spot opened up). I simply cannot say enough good things about this center. The owner, director and teachers know ALL the kids. They provide updates and photos throughout the day through their app. My daughter runs in the center smiling every morning and runs out smiling every evening. She is learning, she is having fun, and she is safe and loved. This peace of mind I have sending her here is priceless. KCC is a true gem! read more

My son has been at KCC since he was 3 months old all the way up to Pre-K and has thrived as a result. We love the teachers, staff, and families, and the commitment to play-based learning. read more

I was very anxious about leaving my first child in day care when I had to return to work. The first day I woke up on the verge of tears. When I dropped her off they were so excited to have her. They were so happy, upbeat and extremely patient with my questions, I didn't shed a single tear. I actually left beaming. I drop my daughter off everyday knowing she is loved and cared for every minute of the day. We are so lucky !!! read more

We have been a happy KCC family since 2014. We enrolled our first child at 1yr, and our second child at 5mo. Finding the "right" daycare can be an emotional journey, and we knew from day one that we had made a great decision! We've experienced every stage that KCC has to offer, from infant care through Preschool. The curriculum, at every stage, is age-appropriate, stimulating, and fun! The teachers, directors, and owners are what make this place so special. Every caregiver is enthusiastic, dedicated, kind and caring. It truly feels like an extended family, they have taken care of our children as if they were their own. Additionally, the communication between parents, children, teachers and directors is timely and excellent. KCC currently uses an an app that allows you to feel like you're a part of your child's day, in addition to heartfelt and thorough conversations at drop-off and pick up. KCC also offers rich educational opportunities, with in-neighborhood walking field trips, and extended field trips in Chicago and beyond. The kids are safe, happy, and well taken care of. I cannot recommend Kidz Creative Corner enough! This is a place my kids would run into each morning, and were reluctant to leave at pick up. :) read more

We sent both of our children to KCC, and they both had great experiences. The teachers are fantastic, and the classes are small, with a lot of individual attention. Our kids made great friends, and they were both ready when it came time to start kindergarten. I very enthusiastically recommend KCC! read more

We had our son at KCC for over a year and our daugher for two months. We could not have been happier there. The teachers were all fantastic and very loving. Our daughter (who was there when she was three months-five months old) was in a very caring environment. Our son (who was there from when he was 22 months until just before he turned 3 was in a fantastic learning environment. The teachers were great and taught a very regimented yet fun curriculum. He would come home every day and let us know all the new things he learned. His classmates and their parents also created a wonderful atmosphere. We only left because we were moving. We were very sad to leave as we loved our time there. We would recommend KCC and the wonderful teachers to every parent out there. We will definitely miss everyone! read more

As a parent, leaving your child in day care can be a very challenging experience. However, not only did KCC make the transition seamless, but they also provided my family with a wonderful sense of community. We have been part of the KCC family for the past year and a half. My daughter has thrived in every room and has developed strong relationships with all of the teachers and students alike. KCC has done an incredible job customizing the curriculum and activities to meet the needs and abilities of the individual children. They do not subscribe to a "one size fits all" approach to development; rather, KCC progresses the children when they are ready. My daughter has shown tremendous growth while at KCC and lights up as we pull up to "school" each morning. We feel incredibly grateful to have found KCC and look forward to enrolling future children there as well. read more

I highly recommend Kidz Creative Corner. We have been a part of the KCC family for over 2 years, and have trusted KCC with our two children (3.5 yrs and 6 months). The teachers, director and owner genuinely care about each and every child. They were so accommodating and caring with my sons' allergies and asthma, which allowed me to feel confident that he was in a safe and trusted place (hard to do when your child has health issues). And leaving my daughter at 3 months to go back to work was made much easier by the extremely attentive and loving teachers in the infant room. My toddler son truly thrived--emotionally and academically--at KCC at each stage. We just relocated to a different state, and it was very hard to say goodbye to this special place. We will be forever grateful and hope our next daycare/school can live up to the impressive example that KCC has set. read more

KCC is very special place, and is an amazing daycare option in Northcenter. We'd still have our kids there had we not moved out of the area. The teachers, director, and owner were truly passionate about providing the best possible care to our two children. They were easy to work with regarding our son's many food allergies, and administering his asthma medication when needed. Both of our children thrived at KCC, and for that we will be forever grateful. read more

The best thing that I can say about KCC is that I felt like my daughter was loved and that she enjoyed her time there. We recently moved and had to say goodbye, but we are so appreciative of the time our daughter spent there - from the time I returned to work when she was a small baby to her toddler years. It is a comfortable and supportive center that I recommend to friends who live in the area. read more

As a parent I appreciate the dedication of the staff. Over half the teachers have been at the center for a minimum 3 years. The low turnover speaks volumes about both the owners as well as the commitment and the relationships both our son and we have built over the past years. Once your child transitions to a new room the previous teachers still take time out of their day to check up on the children which significantly reduces the anxiety, fear and disruptiveness that this change can bring. Personally, my husband and I still have very close relationships with the teachers from his infant room days, as does our son. Again, this shows the extra mile the teachers go to put the children first. I have never seen a center so devoted to cohesion but at the same time effectively implement separation by developmental stages allowing each child to flourish and reach their maximum potential. KCC vets their teachers extensively. The majority have higher education degrees which the owners take into account and utilize by allowing the teachers to create lessons complimenting their specialty. It is always difficult, and a huge decision which weighs on a parent, when deciding where to send your child for care. We were originally at another daycare which was very toxic. The owners were not dedicated to the center, and their lack of support to both the staff & the parents led to a very unhealthy environment. The teachers & parents were extremely frustrated and the feelings crept into the day to day handling of the center, how effective the teachers could be without the proper supplies, where ultimately the children suffered. There are bad centers out there, this is not one of them! When you walk into the full class room on any given day, what you will see is shocking to say the least. All of those adorable kids running around, seemingly in ten different directions, but all with the same purpose - to have fun! The mass chaos, which somehow isn't actually chaos, is mesmerizing. Then you look up from watching this spectacle to see who the real heroes are. Calmly and without any hesitation the teachers are setting up for snack time, circle time or yoga while engaging the children in a game or some type of activity to keep them engaged & active, all while being so unruffled that it makes you question your own reality. How do these teachers handle all of these wonderful & spirited kids for ten hours a day, day after day, without losing momentum and making it look easy and (gasp!) fun!? But then you start to see them interact with the children to settle them for snacks/lunch/nap time/a walk outside and you get a firsthand glimpse of how amazing the teachers are at dealing with the multiple personalities of all of these kids. They know, just like you do, the individual needs & struggles of your child to help make a situation or transition uneventful. The teachers are extremely proactive in speaking with parents. Every teacher "owns" a relationship with you & your child. Obviously the relationships are as involved as you create them, but I like the fact that no matter which teacher is there for drop off or pick up, I can ask them about his day, potty training, transitions, etc. and they can speak to me confidently about my child. You don't have to schedule an appointment to speak with Tremaine to receive feedback and updates. The owners of KCC take pride in what they do - providing a safe & nurturing environment for children. They go the extra mile to interact with parents - they aren't simply a name on a piece of paper or check that you never see - they are personable, great people with children of their own. Throughout the year they host events for the families which they attend. For example, during the holidays the teachers organized a "Holiday Show" which the owners attended and then surprised both the parents & children with and appearance by Santa which included pictures and small gifts from his satchel. All of this was at no extra charge to the parents. The support & respect they give their staff is appropriate to help evolve the center when needed and ensure the needs of the center are met for the children. The children's days are structured but not over scheduled, with emphasis on spending time outside when weather permits. Every teacher builds a genuine relationship with each child. Everyone is very in tune with the variety of transitions children go through. Not all children start and end transitions at the same time, but the teachers are truly adapt at gauging changes and developmental milestones, providing tools for success, achievement and continued forward momentum. read more

We have been a part of the KCC family since 2012 when my son was not even 12 months. We have since had another child who has been enrolled since she was an infant. The decision to bring your children to daycare (or any other care) is extremely difficult, and our experience was no exception. At KCC, we were immediately comforted by the love, patience, and genuine interest in each child that was shown by the teachers. My kids are so loved, and are told such often. I have never felt the need to question their safety or well-being. Tremaine, the director, creates a respectful and supportive environment for the teachers, is extremely involved with the children, works closely with the owners, and is constantly making improvements to the infrastructure. Whenever I have any questions or general concerns, they are always met with understanding and clear responses. I would (and have) absolutely recommend KCC to any family. Specifically, if you ever have he opportunity for your preschooler to be cared for by Becky, take it - she's an incredible human being and we thank our lucky starts daily that my children spend each day with her. read more
