My son started here about a month ago. He was at a TLE prior to this and cried for 2 years straight at drop off. I had visited this place a few times before deciding to transition my son here. I loved it every time I went. Anytime I went there, the entire staff was very welcoming and friendly. You couldn’t pass anyone in the hall without them saying hi to you. I talked mostly to Shannon and Stephanie and they are just down to earth and so comforting. The first day my son went here he just walked right in with no crying or any issues. Shannon kept me updated on him throughout the day. I feel so comfortable knowing he is in good hands. Shannon has been absolutely amazing throughout this whole transition process. Couldn’t recommend her enough
I have two children at KLA. My oldest daughter started KLA at 4 months old. She is now in the 3s. My 6 month old has been with the school for about 3 months. The school has blown us away with their curriculum. The knowledge that my daughter has taken in from attending KLA has blown past my expectations. I really do love all the staff at this school. Each teacher and administrator have had an instrumental role in both my children's development. The staff at KLA have been part of our family for years. I have an extra special place in my heart for Ms. Cristina in the Baby Nido classroom. She runs her classroom incredibly well. There is no one else I would rather leave my new baby with. I drop my daughter off and know that she is safe and well taken care of every day. My daughter sees a physical therapist for a tilted neck. Cristina noticed the issue before I even brought it to her attention and was already actively doing stuff in the classroom to help correct it. She has also been extremely open in working with my daughter to meet her milestones by applying feedback from our physical therapist in the classroom. When I drop my daughter off and she sees Cristina, she always gets a big smile on her face. Even better, at the end of the day my child is returned to me even cleaner than when I dropped her off :). Ms Cristina is also very special to my older daughter. Ms. Kelly is also an amazing attribute to the KLA staff. She is always friendly and ready to help. If she isn't at the front desk when we arrive, my daughter has me find her to ensure Kelly is there. Kelly is open to hearing my feedback, has helped sort through any problems we have had, and has helped give advice on how to deal with scenarios that have taken place as my daughter grows. I really appreciate her and think KLA is lucky to have her as an administrator. I can tell how hard she works and think it shows in how the school is run.
This is the worst possible daycare for your child! All they care about is money! The hours are much shorter than the rest of daycares in the area (9-3, as opposed to 6.30am-6.30pm). They WILL be closed during all the snow days, even though other daycares will stay open, as well as always take extra holidays and a bunch of Mondays off, at parents’ expense, obviously! And, of course, you will never see a refund for those days. Their absent policy is non existent - if you want to take a vacation, you’ll still pay 100% of tuition. Also, If you are worried or curious about your child’s first day/week in the daycare, you can forget about chatting to their teacher, because the main teacher will be long gone by the time you pick your child up, so you’ll have to be ok talking to subs, who typically don’t get to spend too much time with your kiddo. My child kept having “accidents” there, but never ever at home, and I KNOW he always asks to use a potty! Also, we were promised organic and healthy snacks, well, it wasn’t the case either! When I finally had enough and pulled my child from the daycare, probably 1/3 of parents did the same thing at the same time! Also, teacher turnover is ridiculous! Overall - an extremely and unreasonably overpriced daycare that is not worth your time! After we spent a few months here, I found a fantastic daycare next door where my child spent his next 3 years at! Absolutely do NOT recommend this school! Do yourself a favor and research much better options elsewhere!
My daughter has been attending KLA for only 9 months and it has been amazing! I only wish she started here in the first place. From the moment you walk in the door you know it's wonderful. She has excelled in this short time more then I could ask for thanks to her wonderful teachers Miss Rhonda and Miss Tiffany. We're so lucky to have them!! They inspire her to do her best and be a strong kind person. She looks forward to seeing them and misses her school when she's not attending.
KLA has been such a wonderful experience for my son. Mrs. Kelly is AMAZING with the kids. You can tell that she truly loves what she does and loves the children. She has made me feel 100% comfortable leaving my son there, knowing that he is having a great time while he is there, as well as learning the fundamentals that he'll need in the future. I love that I receive daily communications about his activities and progress.
