We will truly feel a loss when he starts Kindergarten next year, but I am so grateful that we found a wonderful place with Ms. Funmi and her team for so many years. Hours are very convenient for working parents, plenty of outdoor time is offered when the weather cooperates, and safety and kindness prevail. My son loves his teachers like family. Couldn't ask for more.

I have been sending my eldest son here since we moved to the burbs in September 2014. He loves it…read moreand looks forward to going. All of the children seem so happy here. Miss Funmi is wonderful with them. She has been so flexible with my work schedule, allowing me to bring the kids part time and adding days when I need to. When I had my second, it made going back to work so much easier knowing that he was going to such a loving and caring environment. I would highly recommend Montessori Children's Place to anyone.

I was very hesitant after reading the reviews but the YMCA after care at our school was full and I…read moregave it a shot. I'm really glad I did. I had many questions, new Exec Director was so patient. Dana is on top of everything - each classroom, the facility, safety, décor even! Billing as well and she's great with the children and the parents. She answered all my questions ever so patiently - exactly the demeanor you would expect from a place where children play. Our two yr old tried another facility in Naperville over the summer and although I had many friends tell me amazing things....my two year old still cried every time I dropped him off and it just wouldn't taper off after 3 weeks. Now that we are at Knowledge Beginnings he cried the first 4 days, and it tapered off!!! Now he walks in ready to go to "school" with his little backpack on. What a relief! For school age kids they bus before and after from area schools. They offer snacks and the kids do HW there. The prices are better than the safe n sound YMCA program. For little ones they have infant rooms, toddler rooms, preschool rooms, the facility is super clean and very nicely decorated! He comes home singing many new songs and tells us about his day "I played Play-Dough". Very cute. The teachers are great and the directors are awesome with feedback and will help in a constructive way. They offer breakfast, snack, lunch and PM snack. It's not organic life, but that's my only wish list item. It is nice to not have to pack lunch, and they do offer fruits and veggies. If you have specific dietary needs the exec director will work with you!

The center is clean and safe - and I feel the same way (more so actually) once we began sending her back once restrictions were lifted. The communication is top notch - I am never left wondering what's going on, and if I have questions, I get a timely response. I trust that my daughter's best interests are in mind and that she is safe and healthy while at KB.

I actually tried to reach out to one negative reviewer on here before starting my child at Kindie…read moreand the person never responded. So I went to the Illinois state accrediting website for daycares to see if any of that was substantiated and there is no record of discipline for any similar sounding incident. I never woke with anyone at the center about the allegations but felt confident based on my own research. So I started my kid there a year ago. All I can say for myself is they have been exceptionally accommodating to any specific requests for my kid. She loves it and I feel confident getting so many pictures and videos throughout the day that my kid is safe, having fun, and learning.

We are so fortunate to have found them years ago by neighborhood recommendation. We have personally referred several others. Miss Kim and her staff are absolutely wonderful! My children have gone through almost every room in the facility and each one has been exceptional. The staff has been consistent throughout our time there which says a LOT. There is very little turn over keeping the learning environment for the children a top priority. Most daycare facilities cannot say the same. One of our children had some significant health issues at one point and the center was on top of it. Another has an anaphylactic allergy and I never worry about his allergy. My children's education and emotional well-being has always been approached with respect, care, and an enormous amount of experience. This week we will be ending our daycare journey as we are aging into kindergarten with our youngest. I've teared up several times already. It will be bittersweet leaving our children's home away from home. 10/5 stars. Cannot recommend enough.

We feel incredibly fortunate to have found this daycare. From our very first visit, the staff made…read moreus feel completely welcomed and at ease. They're warm, nurturing, and clearly have a special gift with children--our son absolutely loves going each day. The communication is exceptional. Through the Procare app, we receive regular, thoughtful updates about meals, naps, and the fun, educational activities our son is doing. It gives us such peace of mind to feel so connected and informed throughout the day. What stands out most is how genuinely child-centered and honest the entire team is. On a day when our son wasn't feeling well, Hayley, the owner, called us immediately--not out of obligation, but out of genuine care. She treats our son, and our family, as if we were her own. That level of personal attention and kindness is rare. The facility itself is beautiful--brand new, immaculately clean, and thoughtfully designed with kids' comfort and development in mind. If you're looking for a daycare that truly has it all--loving caregivers, engaging activities, healthy meals, age-appropriate nap spaces, and a deep commitment to your child's well-being--this is the place. We couldn't be happier.

We had an immediate connection with the teachers in the baby room, which was key for me as a nervous first-time mom. He's not just being supervised, he's learning.

He looks forward to going to "school" every day and has even started grabbing his coat and waiting patiently by the door until it's time to leave in the morning. When he walks in, he is greeted with hugs by the teachers and is genuinely happy to be there. That means the world to us.
