After a really disappointing experience at our previous school, finding Kiddie Academy has been…read morenothing short of a gift for our family. As a first-time mom with an only child, I spent a long time wondering if the things we struggled with before were just "normal." But after being here for several months now, I can confidently say: this is what early childhood education should look and feel like. One of the biggest and most immediate differences is the communication. it is phenomenal. It's basically impossible to miss an update. We get texts, emails, notes on our child's bin... anything that's happening, you're made aware of well in advance. The school's website is also current and easy to navigate, which is a small thing that speaks volumes about how organized and family-focused they are. Since starting here, our son's creativity has absolutely exploded. He actually wants to paint, draw, and do crafts on his own at home now--something he never showed much interest in before. The classroom decor is always changing and full of the children's artwork and faces. It's not just cute, it's intentional--you can see that the teachers are actively improving and refreshing the environment to keep it engaging. And don't even get me started on the pre-K graduation--it was unmatched. So stinking cute. It was one of those moments you don't forget as a parent. The effort and heart that went into it was obvious. No one else does it like this. All of these things--from the day-to-day communication to the big milestone celebrations--show how much the school reinvests into the kids, the staff, and the overall experience. Honestly, we just wish we would've come here sooner. Our son is thriving, and as parents, we finally feel at peace knowing he's in the right place. If you're a parent trying to find a school where your child will be seen, supported, and truly inspired--this is it.

It remained opened during most of the pandemic being a clean facility without overcrowding, which is a blessing for working parents! The director Ms. Ade is very friendly and professional , and so is their staff! I highly recommend this daycare and preschool.

I feel safe having my children here & I also think they have just the right number of children in the center. It's not too crowded, but enough kids so your children can learn good socialization skills. They offer a music & dance class & the security protocols also keep my mind at ease when my kids are there. Overall, I think this is a safe, clean, & happy environment for children.

I had the liberty of working for Children's' Palace academy. Wonderful daycare but the Director was…read morea total FAKE!! Of course in front of parents she was sweet and giggly, but once backs were turned she was a total different person including the parents she did not like. She wants the loyalty of her staff to lye with her yet everything that happens within a center should be in the best interest of the kids. She picks and chooses what staff members she wants to be giddy with and talks Crap about each staff in a Slye way. I myself went into children's palace academy thinking i could help make a change within a bad environment. She was told numerous times that the kitchen and classroom had ants. Nothing was ever made clear to the parents when there was any type of change. Let's not forget the fire drills we never did since I've worked there but yet my name is on the paper that licensing comes to look at. I kindly gave her my resignation letter last week and she started acting cold towards me as she does other employees she does not like. She told me today will be my last day because i tried to inform parents i would be leaving. Don't get me wrong it has the potential to be a great daycare but $185 for a twos class that already had 4 different teachers writhing 5 months is ridiculous. The persona and advertisement she gives off is a complete fake. But if you're looking for childcare or a job she's open and hiring i still wish the owner nothing but success & hope she fixes everything before licensing comes out.

Second the staff genuinely cares, my son has moved throughout multiple classrooms and every teacher has been nothing short of fantastic in the infant and toddler program thus far. In regards to the infant room they are GREAT about following the oz's per bottle you set, but also gently making recommendations when needed. because let's face it babies act different depending on who they're around sometimes. You get these cute little notes about things they enjoy and developmental milestones they achieve. They send home soooo much art work for you to hang on the fridge and cherish. The toddler program is also wonderful. Classroom 6,1,2, and 3 teachers were all super great. One day there was an issue, my son slept too long and he slept through a bottle and as a ftm it made me super nervous, this staff handled it like CHAMPS they were super understanding and supportive of my position and assured me it wouldn't happen again and it did not. Goes to show how great they are at not only dealing with babies but also parents. The food they receive is also amazing in my opinion their menu never fails! Overall the value of care, education, and experience you get for your child is unmatched by any other daycare I've seen. If you can get a spot here I highly recommend it!

This review is for the owner and director of the school- I…read morehave never had so much disrespect from another person. I had an issue with a teacher. I tried to discuss it with the teacher, that did not work so I went to the director. She not only did not hear any of my concerns, she was belittling and dismissive throughout every conversation. When I went to the OWNER of the school to discuss how the whole situation was being handled and how rude her staff was, I received the response that is attached below: "Staff members, including our management team, are not up for a discussion with parents." The facility is nice, the actual teachers really do seem to care about the kids, anyone else behind a desk was never a good experience and always made things difficult.

We are so grateful for Ms. Marrilyn and her Home Learning Day Care. From the very first day, she…read morewelcomed our child with warmth, patience, and genuine care. She not only provides a safe and loving environment, but also focuses on early learning through creative activities, reading, and structured play. The children are always engaged, happy, and encouraged to grow both socially and academically. What stands out most is how attentive she is to each child's needs--treating them as if they were her own. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel reassured knowing our child is in such capable and caring hands. I would wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Marrilyn's Home Learning Day Care to any family searching for a reliable, nurturing, and educational setting for their little ones.

I am a first time mom, and with that, came a sort of panic about someone else watching my daughter. I will tell you that with out a doubt, I know my little one is in great hands, safe and loved. Ms. Marrilyn and her team do an amazing job at teaching life skills early on such as confidence and self esteem. Our children have the capability to do so much, and I promise they will thrive here. Manners, letters, & numbers, are just the beginning of what this wonderful home teaches. Oh and just a small side note, we recently moved 30 min out of town, and I drive an extra 15min past my work so my daughter continues going here, because I couldn't imagine my toddler going anywhere else.
