Cuddly kids academy is wonderful. My daughter smile and runs to the door every morning I drop her off. When I pick her up she always looks so happy playing with the other babies and her teachers. She was struggling to talk when I enrolled her; she’d only say 15-20 words. In less than a month she was saying >50 words and is now speaking in 3 word sentences and pronouncing more complex multi syllable words. Her diaper is always fresh and she’s always had a recent snack. The people who work here are amazing and we are thrilled and grateful with the job they are doing with our baby.

Pay the extra $20 and send your child to an organized and SAFE location. They do not teach. After being attacked by staff, me and my husband moved our son out from this establishment and he has been flourishing ever since. They hire anyone to work there and gossip like high school students. This place in not professional and the staff crosses boundaries. I would not recommend this place if you want your child to have positive adult examples through out the day. I am so happy with his new daycare!

My son LOVES this place!!! Most children will show how they feel through resistance of a daycare with staff, but my son wants to be here, he is learning and he is happy and i would give them 10 🌟s if i could. Everyone is professional and want the best for the child. This is a great learning and diverse environment. 💞💞

With only having one child, I was nervous when it came to sending him today care. But cuddly kids and the staff are awsome! They send me emails, they call when something's wrong, they have a excellent curriculum and even better teachers. They have outside play and a bout 4 different playgrounds for different age groups. The toddler class has a covered playground, and plenty of shade for the little ones. I LOVE the SmartCare App for the parents. You can sign your child in and out, set a profile, pay your daycare bill, and receive cute pictures of your child at play or learning. Cuddly Kids also sends me emails concerning the food menu, upcoming events, payment expectations, and sometimes learning curriculum for the age group your child is enrolled. Plenty of times I've seen them follow rules about cleanliness, classroom ratios, and health concerns. I've recommended one of my coworkers as well and she and her child loves it there as well. I give this facility and staff 5 stars.😊

My started at Cuddly Kids Academy when he was 2 years old. He is now in there VPK program and is doing very well. They were patient with him in his early 2 stage and assistances with potty training. It only took a week for him to be in underwear and out of pull-ups. As time went on and his class changed, he grew confidence. Now he is able to read and write before he starts kindergarten. He can also do adding and subtracting. They keep the parents informed and also love when parents are involved or willing to meet if parents have concerns. They have great hours opening at 530 am and closing at 6pm for parents with different work schedules. I would recommend them if you’re looking for a great location that is clean and staff is friendly.
