We started during kindergarten for their after school program and have continued now into our 4th year. We do some of our summers with them and many of the holidays. Critically, LK remained safely and compassionately open throughout the entirety of the pandemic. To say that they saved my job at the hospital is not an overstatement. They are family now and we continue to appreciate the perfect balance of fun and safe, guided and independent activities, toys and ever changing creative options like food art, hikes, glow dance parties and even debate training and social skills discussions. The owner and staff are beautiful humans who clearly care about each child. If you are in search of family-like childcare, it is time to gently replace your guts, calm your nerves, and save a ton of time and research by joining this generational gem. Then simply delight in the happy, successful, socially responsible child you pick up each day. (Added bonus of homework complete already!!)
