Creative Kids Academy - Orono receives universal praise from parents, with all reviews rating it 5/5 stars. Parents highlight exceptional staff, strong leadership, nurturing environment, and comprehensive curriculum as reasons they chose to stay or recommend the facility to others.
The staff at CKA - Orono are phenomenal. We found this location after having our daughter attend a couple of other daycares - ended up loving it so much that we stayed and continued to drive 20-25 minutes each way so that she could attend. As parents, we worry about who cares for our children, but each day we noticed how nurturing, supportive and relaxed the staff were. We only wished we found this location sooner.
This is by far the best daycare my kids have been to. We have moved a few times so we have experienced different centers over the past 4 years. All of the teachers are amazing. They help both of my kids feel comfortable starting their day at school and they always have a great time. Sarah and Amber are AMAZING directors and top notch professionals. It’s a safe, clean and fun learning environment. Very lucky my kids at this school. Thank you for all you do!
Creative Kids Academy is an AMAZING place filled with incredible staff. Ms Amber, the director, is a profound leader that has built a crew of thoughtful, loving, and talented staff and teachers. Children learn so much every day, and all of the daily activities are well thought out to be age appropriate, engaging, and develop knowledge and skills for the students. Lots of outdoor or gym time and art or sensory stations for gross and fine motor practice. Our kiddo LOVES going to daycare!
We are so pleased with the care and attention. Our daughter has received at CKA Orono. The teachers and staff are always welcoming and pay attention to her little quirks and personality as she develops. They constantly foster and nurture her to grow. They are always active and lively in the classroom and interacting with the children. There are no tablets or iPhones visible in the infant/toddler classroom, even when I have peaked in. Our daughter was previously at a different daycare and when I would pick her up, she was in dirty clothes of milk spit up and nose snot, crying and unhappy. Since starting at Orono CKA, whenever I have picked her up, she is always laughing or being, attended to and in clean clothes. Even when she did not have an extra pair of clothes, they provided a new shirt and pants for her. They are excellent at trying to limit the spread of illness. The staff are diligent at keeping classrooms clean and disinfect regularly. Having had the experience of a different daycare, I am incredibly pleased and happy with the excellent staff and support that my daughter has received at Orono CKA. Of note, the core staff has remained constant. They make an effort to ensure that children, transition smoothly between classrooms and teachers do rotate between the classroom for the younger children. I cannot say enough positive things about the leadership with Amber and Sarah, and the teachers and the staff that constantly get to know my daughter and support a nurturing environment.
We love Creative Kids Academy Orono! The staff is absolutely wonderful and committed to the development of our child. Our son is always excited to be with his sweet teachers and friends when we drop him off in the morning and often sad to leave at the end of the day. We toured many daycares and CKA far exceeded our expectations in all categories.
