Kiddie Academy Of West Caldwell

I couldn’t be more thrilled with our experience at Kiddie Academy. The teachers show genuine care for my little one, and I’m impressed every single day. Knowing my baby is in such capable hands gives me complete peace of mind. We feel so fortunate to have found this wonderful daycare!

My daughter has been enrolled in Kiddie Academy for just about a month and we could not be happier. We had a horrific experience with the first daycare we enrolled her in and were absolutely traumatized- to the point that we were considering never putting her in daycare again. Thankfully, we found Kiddie Academy in West Caldwell, where we were greeted by the wonderful owners, Andrew and Claudia, and their friendly, helpful and professional staff. There are no words to describe how amazing this daycare is. It’s very clean and safe. You can feel the good energy from the moment you walk in. Every child is smiling and laughing. Teachers you don’t even know say hello to you and your child in the halls. We also can’t thank our daughter’s 3 teachers enough, for ensuring that her transition was seamless and easy. Mrs. Brittany, Mrs. Danielle and Mrs. Kyana are the absolute best and truly love what they do. Their constant support and attention to her each and every day is very comforting, especially after what we had been through. This isn’t just a daycare where they “watch” your child. It’s a school- and their schedule, structure and curriculum is impressive. The children are always learning from and interacting with their teachers. Also, no outside food is allowed. Everything is made in house, so the tuition includes breakfast, lunch and snacks. They have live cameras where you can check in on your child from the moment you drop them off right up until pick up. You receive daily photos on their app and a VERY detailed report at the end of each day. After 3 days - our daughter was excited to go back. We have already signed our younger son up to begin next year. If you are looking for a daycare that you can truly trust, this is the place. Thank you to EVERYONE at Kiddie Academy in West Caldwell. We are so thankful that we found you!

I cannot say enough good things about Kiddie Academy of West Caldwell. This school is truly one of, if not the best. My daughter and son in law recently had a terrible experience with a prior daycare and made the very difficult decision to try and trust another daycare again with my granddaughter. Thankfully they found Kiddie Academy. She loves going to school every single day. Every time she is picked up, she has the biggest smile on her face. The owners, Claudia and Andrew, my granddaughter’s teachers, Miss Brittany, Miss Danielle, and Miss Kiana and the rest of the staff, are truly amazing and we are so thankful for everything that they do.

My daughter has been going to KA since she was 4 months and now 5 years old. It all started when we were on a waiting list for KA and had a bad experience with another daycare. At the time, we reached out to KA to let them know what happened. Even though we were on a waiting list with KA they said; “don’t worry, we’ll find room.” That was the start of the type of place we could expect for our daughter. A place that truly cared about the families and children they serve. As a new Mom, it was extremely difficult to leave my baby. However, they put me at ease and I knew she was in great hands. The teachers were so warm, nurturing and knowledgeable about how to care for a baby. Fast forward to Pre-K and the owners and teachers have been amazing throughout all these years. Our girl has learned so much which is a testament to the type of education they have set forth. This is a place where your children are not just cared for but taught. One of the memorable teachers that our daughter had was Ms. Chante. She provides structure that kids need and truly cares about her students as her own. She is dedicated, passionate and loves her students. The curriculum she provided has been top notch and we’ve seen our daughter excel in writing, letters, numbers, sight words and so much more. When we went on the school tour for Kindergarten, we were amazed to hear that our daughter already knew things that the students were expected to learn and do. Ms. Chante has prepared our daughter for Kindergarten above and beyond. We were amazed! We are so grateful for KA, the teachers, staff and owners; Ms. Claudia and Mr. Andrew. They are devoted and passionate about the children and their educational foundation. If you are looking for a daycare and Pre-K, Kiddie Academy of West Caldwell is the place to be. We highly recommend it.

There are no words to describe how pleased we are with our son's development at Kiddie Academy in West Caldwell. We were so apprehensive about sending out speech delayed son to daycare for the first time and KA made that transition seamless. He started school barely even saying "mama" and after a few weeks, he was already making significant strides in his development. The owner, Jill, and Director, Stacy, are very communicative and genuinely cared for my son and his well being. If I was ever concerned, they are always there with open ears (and arms). The structure is wonderful and the love and care the teachers have for the children is more than I could have asked for in a school for my son. The cameras are also a huge plus as I could see my son playing and learning during the day. They also offer a meal program which is amazing because I never have to worry about what he will eat for breakfast, lunch or snacks. So glad to have found this school for my son!
