Ymca Kipp Early Learning Center

The toddler program at Kiddie Academy of KIPP-Columbus is exceptional! My child has thrived in the nurturing and stimulating environment provided by the caring staff. They offer a wide range of age-appropriate activities that keep the children engaged and happy throughout the day. I have seen a noticeable improvement in my child's social and cognitive skills since starting at this daycare. The facilities are clean, safe, and well-equipped, giving me peace of mind knowing that my child is in good hands. I highly recommend this daycare center to any parent looking for a loving and enriching environment for their toddler.

We’ve been part of the Kiddie Academy family for the past three years, with two different children and our experience has been nothing short of exceptional, and the last year the best yet. When we enrolled our second baby at just one-year-old, we were thrilled with how the academy has nurtured her growth and development. The structured environment with age-specific classrooms and the dedication of the wonderful teachers truly set Kiddie Academy apart. We appreciate the daily updates, including detailed reports and adorable photos that keep us connected to our child’s day. Kiddie Academy has continually evolved and improved, and we can confidently say it’s the best-managed center we’ve encountered over the years. Ms. Carmen and Ms. Darrien at the front office are remarkable—they make a point to greet and interact with our 2-year-old every day, even though they’re not her direct teachers. Their warmth and personal attention make each visit special. The academy excels in balancing educational activities with fun. From potty training to reading and learning, they ensure our children are engaged and happy. The thoughtful inclusion of family events, often held after hours and on weekends, is another highlight that we deeply appreciate. We wholeheartedly recommend Kiddie Academy to any family seeking a nurturing, well-managed environment for their children.

Kiddie academy is such a wonderful place, I enrolled my daughter at 3 and still she attends at the age of 6. The staff is very loving, helpful and friendly, it like a family away from home. I’ve referred several friends and and family who has also enrolled their children. We have built friendships with office staff, teachers and other family’s. I would 100% recommend.

This facility is very hands on with my children. The care and education curriculum doesn’t consist of watching Elmo or tv all day. My toddler has learned numbers, alphabet, the anatomy of his body, exercise and SO much more. From an infant to now a 2y/o, Kiddie Academy was the absolute BEST DECISION EVER.

I have been with kiddie academy for 4 years and my twins and neice love it there. There has been a few times where I went to pick them up and they refused to leave because they were having fun and I had to come back and get them. The staff treats us like family and special shout out to Ms. Laverne and Ms. Tyneka. We greatly appreciate ya’ll and we’ll be so sad when we leave for kindergarten next year.
