What Parents Say
KIDNECT Child Development LLC (operating as Meadowlark Academy) receives mostly positive reviews praising staff dedication, structured learning activities, and communication tools like Brightwheel. However, recent negative reviews cite staff turnover, inadequate handling of behavioral issues, and concerns about inclusion and support for children with different needs.
We’ve been a part of the Meadowlark family for the past 2.5 years and we love it here! Through leadership changes I feel they have been transparent and supportive. No childcare facility is going to be perfect, and we extend grace to the teachers and leadership with all the parents and children they interact with on a daily basis. Also, I am getting no incentive for this review. We just love it here!
After many years at Meadowlark Academy—remaining loyal through countless transitions and leadership changes—it became clear that loyalty meant nothing to this organization. Our experience with the 3s room at Meadowlark Academy was disappointing. Children with big personalities and high energy may struggle to feel truly seen, understood, or supported in this environment. As a family that places a strong emphasis on inclusion, we were disheartened to find that this core value did not seem to be reflected in the care provided. Every child deserves to feel safe, celebrated, and supported by qualified professionals who understand and embrace developmental differences. Unfortunately, that was not our experience at Meadowlark Academy in the 3s room. When I asked for guidance or resources to help support my child, I was met with vague responses such as, “As for what available resources there are, I’d be happy to chat further about this…”—but no meaningful strategies or follow-up were offered other than sending the child home mid day. It is worth noting that they’re currently offering free t-shirts to existing families who leave a positive review so you may get some biased feedback. Important to note: Reviews are currently turned off on their Facebook page—transparency matters.
Meadowlark has been an amazing place for my kids. This place is more than just a daycare. It's a place that goes above and beyond for their kids. I have been amazed by the amount of things my 4yr has been learning. Every month we receive a calendar showing us the letter of the week, along with weekly lessons and daily craft. They have an excellent program to prepare him for kindergarten. It's structured but also fun! My daughter is in the toddler room and they are constantly doing crafts, puzzles, outside time or activities. This place is beyond a daycare. She has grown too since attending. There are no TVs in the room so it's constant activities to keep them busy. I feel safe when sending them each day. There are two locked doors to get in and a person by the front door when we check in daily. The check in person watches the kids go in and out to make sure there is a safe environment for all. The Bright wheel app allows us to realtime message the teacher, see pictures of what they are doing for the day and check the kids in and out. We are constantly getting pictures and real feedback from the teachers which makes me feel like I am always aware of what is going on with my kids. I love the communication at Meadowlark. From day one I have been amazed by all the little details and things the staff do that go above and beyond for the kids. From field trips to events there is something always going on. I highly recommend Meadowlark and am so happy to see our kids happy at this place. This mama is pretty critical and they have passed all my stringent checks. I would recommend this place to any family looking for a solid place to send their kids.
Ms. Bode is my sons pre school teacher and is just a fantastic teacher. My son loves going to school everyday. They’re always doing fun learning activities. I highly recommend this to anyone searching for a school for their child.
Kidnect was amazing. So disappointed at what it is now. All the good staff left. My son has had 6 different teachers in 5 months. He was constantly getting hit and bit at school and then developed behavior issues at home. My concerns were not heard, my request for him to transfer rooms was denied. My son was always so happy in the other room at drop off, and they consistently had the same teacher. I honestly couldn't recommend Meadowlark Academy to anyone, especially for the price!
