My wife and I are both VERY selective about anybody who would care for our children (we both have worked as attorneys with DSS and child abuse/neglect cases and kind of freak out about the horror stories we have been witness to). Giggles has always gone above and beyond for our family. They care about our kids, they know our kids, they (dare I say) love our kids. And we know so many others who feel the exact same way. While everyone can have a different experience, I would point out just how nice the Giggles area is for kids to play and have fun. Both of our kids tell us they miss Giggles, sometimes things at Giggles and sometimes people from Giggles. As a drop in child care facility there is never time when parents are not coming in and out, so the employees are always "on". There is never a time when there are not parents to see how things are going there, and they even have a webcam if you want to see your kid play when you are away. Without further rambling, i just wanted to say thanks to all the lovely folks at Giggles and tell y'all we miss you! Anybody looking for childcare would be lucky to have folks that kind and wonderful to help watch your kids when you cannot.

My 18 month twin girls had a blast playing at giggles while I was able to run some errands and even…read morehave a nice meal. They offer snacks and will keep your child's sippy cup filled with water so you don't have to worry about picking up hungry, grumpy kiddos. The price is more than reasonable. They also change diapers, so you don't have to wait until your child is potty trained to bring them here. I'm happy I can now enjoy dinner and a movie with my husband without the high cost of a babysitter, since we don't have to include the hour drive each way in our childcare expense anymore.

I have contacted DSS about this because they do not plan on doing anything about these teachers behavior. It's too expensive to send your children to this sorry excuse of a school...

**they remove bad reviews from google…read more We pulled our kid out of Kiddie Academy after just a few hours. We were so excited to get our girl back into daycare after a great experience at our last daycare. We recently moved to NC and chose Kiddie Academy after all the good reviews (which we are beginning to think are fake). We dropped her off after doing zero paperwork. The assistant director was very nice but the director, Courtney, couldn't have been less caring or friendly with us. We finally got access to the cameras a few hours after dropping her off. In the short 30 minutes of watching we saw the teachers be EXTREMELY rough with children, kids that weren't even ours. Slamming kids on their butts, dragging cots with kids in them across the room, yanking kids out of bed by one arm and flipping kids over in their cots so rough the kids looked like little ragdolls. We didn't see anything physically with our kid except for her being distraught and trying to get attention of the teachers who didn't give her as much as a pat on the head for comfort. It was an awful 30 minutes of watching video footage and we high tailed it to pick her up. After showing footage to the director she didn't apologize once or act like she cared at all. She did agree the behavior was rough when asked point blank but "she knows the teachers and they aren't rough"....the owner refunded us without as much as a phone call or email asking what happened. This daycare could care less about the well being of their students and it's truly sad. Be careful sending your kids here!

Our grandson attended KA of Wilmington. The director was often smug with an excuse for everything…read morethat was wrong with it. Poor response to emails, in person requests (to speak to owner) and other concerns etc It took other parents to tell us what they learned was going on in some cases. For ex, the kids were digging a hole in the play yard finding a construction nail, pipe , etc.and if hurt parent was not contacted. They are often sent home with very dirty clothes and hands which is okay if going directly home, but not if heading to a restaurant. Four year olds are unattended in bathrooms for 10 minutes per video tape. Safety wise could easily go in behind another parent (code used) .We could walk out with an unrelated child. They are understaffed and one time we walked in to see several blocks being thrown across the room by a classmate. When I brought it to staffs attention, she turned around and grabbed the classmate's arm and took him to sit on a beanbag chair, but I guess that's not considered time out because KA claims not to use that as a form of discipline . Apparently summer camp is offered only to favored students- no other criteria used or explained to parents. Parents reached out to other parents about this concern and then to the director who said the choice was randomly created due to space limitations. So while some kids left for fun camp activities, the others stayed behind. I think a schools director either makes or breaks a school. I guess as long as there is a critical need for daycare in the county, many will continue to look the other way.
