All About Kids

I truly cannot say enough good things about our experience with All About Kids. We left a couple of previous daycares because we felt they weren’t providing what our children needed. We found All About Kids when a new director, Katrina—whom we loved from a previous daycare—took over. Many of the amazing staff from that former center also moved to AAK, which made our decision even easier. Last March, I called Katrina and told her, “Help, I need my kids to come to you,” and she immediately said yes. Our oldest has some behavioral challenges, and the way the staff worked with him to make him feel comfortable was truly amazing. We started part-time, but he did so well that we moved him to full-time preschool. Our baby absolutely loves it there and is now two years old and thriving in the toddler room. We also use AAK for aftercare for our kindergartener, who can’t wait to go every day. When we first started, I heard some parents express concerns about staff turnover. Since Katrina became director, there has been almost no staff turnover, and anyone who has left did so for positive reasons, such as continuing their education. Huge shoutout to Katrina and the owner for supporting all the positive changes she has made at AAK. So many parents have told me how much better things have been since she took over. Thank you, All About Kids, for everything you do!

I am not someone who typically leaves reviews, but when it comes to trusting an establishment with your child, I feel it’s important to speak up. My son started at All About Kids when he was 6 months old in the infant room. As first-time parents with our first experience in daycare, we were unsure of what to expect. Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. AAK charges a high price while employing severely underqualified staff, demonstrating a lack of management and an overall disconnect from what is happening day to day. They made little to no effort to get to know us or our child. On multiple occasions, I was handed the wrong child at pickup, and the staff turnover was so high that many employees didn’t even know the children’s names. Nearly every pickup, I was met by a new employee I had never seen before, which was extremely uncomfortable for me and likely confusing and unsettling for my son, who never had the opportunity to form consistent relationships. Throughout the day, my son would sit playing with the same few Fisher-Price toys while staff members sat on their phones logging bottles, diapers, and constant incident reports (hair pulling, biting, etc.) rather than engaging with the children. On one occasion, my son, who was not even one year old, pulled another child’s hair. Instead of handling the situation appropriately, staff allowed him to sit there holding the hair while they took a photo and sent it to me. I had multiple meetings with the owner and the “director,” who consistently told me what I wanted to hear, but no meaningful changes were ever made. I am only writing this review now because my son has been at Creative Explorations for a little over six months, and the difference is night and day. The level of care, qualified staff who genuinely want to be there, and the hands-on, engaging activities provided every day make All About Kids look like a prison by comparison. It honestly makes me sick to my stomach that I ever trusted AAK with my son.

All About Kids is the best childcare!! Every single teacher is incredible with children. They all go above and beyond to nurture and celebrate every child. They are great at communicating with families and setting up extra fun activities beyond the everyday curriculum. A clean, safe building with the best staff.

As a mom to a medically complex little, this school has been life changing to us. My little is beyond safe here in the care of the staff. She has had medical emergencies here and they handed it with compassion and calm. My little wakes up excited to come to school daily now that she attends here. She tells me how happy she is and how fun it is in her class. Definitely recommend enrolling here. The staff are all beautiful and kind souls. This is truly a fantastic establishment.

Love AAK! The staff are friendly, patient, and truly care about each child. My little one is always excited to go and comes home happy. The environment feels safe, welcoming, and fun—highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing place for their child.
