I honestly would never ever ever bring my child back to this location. 1 i paid 600 a month for one child for 2-3 after school 2. my child has special needs which they knew about!! and kept calling me at work with this excuse " im sorry could you pick up our child are staff isnt trainned to deal with her" "their just high school kids" 3. i went to pick up my child and i went in with no one asking me who i was. i picked up my child and left and no one asked me any questions. the whole time the staff(high school kids) where in a circle talking about what color they should paint their hair. since then i remove my child i put her in the YMCA PROGRAM which im beyong happy with their services they are the best!! my child made amazing friends and i havent received a phone call from them asking me to pick up my child!! their extremely attentive and im very happy with their services. my child has ADHD it was no reason for me to leave work it was a matter of the kidco staff hiring the right type of people and giving the right care to a child. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH KIDCO AND WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND A PLACE LIKE THAT!

LOVED having my children at Kidco. They have been there since they were each 3 months old, and my oldest was most recently in the preschool program. For the past three years, every teacher, every member of the staff has been wonderful. My kids loved going to school each day. They mixed fun and learning in every moment. It was really important to me that there was a developmental/educationally based curriculum, especially in the older classrooms, and I was not disappointed! The teachers made sure that my kids were learned and growing every day, and they provided feedback to me on an ongoing basis. So important! And, they had such a great way of helping them transition to different levels when it was appropriate. I cant say a single negative thing about the program. The only reason my girls arent there is because we recently moved out of the area. It was hard to find a daycare setting that lived up to the high bar that Kidco set!! I have and will continue to recommend Kidco to anyone looking for the BEST daycare setting in the Newington area!!

Having had the opportunity of being at other pre-school programs thoughout town we have found Kidco to be very pleasing and our first choice in continuing the preschool experience for our daughter. Our daughter was unhappy elsewhere and since her starting Kidco in November she has excelled in her training, soicalization and education. She REALLY looks forward to going there and gets upset when its not her day to go. The Kidco staff has been incredibly professional, positive and encouraging that they make this experience for our daughter and us a true delight. I am really looking forward to the next two years there as well with increasing her time spent there. I would highly recommend Kidco to others as I have had nothing but great reponses when I spoke to other parents of Kidco. The facilities are safe, secure and clean there are not alot of germs coming home as with other places. Thank you Kidco and staff for doing such a great job and keep up the great work.

Both of my daughters have gone to Kidco over the past 6 years, with the youngest one soon to be graduating from Pre-k in 2013. The teachers are very dedicated and attentive to the children, and you can tell that they really love their job. Kidco has 2 buildings, one for infants, toddlers and school age (after school), and the other building is a pre-school for 3 and 4 year olds. Both buildings are beautifully decorated and secure, and the rooms are very clean and organized. They also have secure play areas for the kids outside. My children hardly ever got sick due to germs in the classrooms, unlike other daycares that we had tried before discovering Kidco. One experience with another daycare showed that it had a high turnover of young staff, but I have never found this to be the case at Kidco. The staff appear to be carefully selected and most of them stay employed with Kidco for years. I would highly recommend Kidco for your childcare needs.

We enrolled our son at Kidco for daycare 3 years ago. He is now in their preschool program and still loving it! From the moment we took the tour of the facilities, we were impressed. The Director Maria is not only extremely approachable, friendly and professional, but she somehow knows every single childs name! We waited a little long to put our son in daycare but were immediately comfortable with his infant room teachers. They gave us the invaluable gift of putting him on a schedule which was a daunting task for us as new parents. We have LOVED every teacher he has had as hes grown through the program. We are continually impressed with the organization of the entire Kidco program and the wonderful staff and are excited to trust them with caring for our next little boy when he is ready for daycare.

I love Kidco and recommend it to anyone who will listen! Both of my boys have attended Kidco for 2 years now, one started in the infant room and the other in a toddler room. The teachers are loving and nurturing, always taking time to welcome each child and give them the attention they need. Leaving your children with someone else can be a scary thing as a Mom and I have no hesitation or worry when dropping my children off each morning! A great feeling! The preschool program is far superior to other programs in the area, and my son is learning so much. He will be more than ready for kindergarten. I also love that they are NAYAC accredited. If you are looking for a safe, loving and nurturing environment I think Kidco is the place you should look. Signed, A happy Mama

My son has been going to Kidco since he was six month old. We have been there for three years and have loved his experience from when he was an infant to the preschool program now. He has always been very well taken care of and we trust the teachers here. The teachers have always been helpful in times of transition, especially since he spent summers home with me and had to transition back in the fall. The preschool is NAEYC accredited and has a wonderful curriculum which includes field trips. We are very happy we chose this center/preschool!! My son is happy here and that is very important for us.

We have been very pleased since arriving at KidCo two years ago. We came from another very high quality center daycare in Middletown and were pleasantly surprised by the similarities with KidCo. The preschool is excellent and the outdoor play area is unrivaled, giving our son wonderful opportunities for gross motor skill development (an often overlooked area for children). We would (and have) recommend KidCo to other families.

My son has issues with change and is very shy. The kidco preschool has brought him out of his shell. He Cant wait to go back in September. All the teachers are truly amazing. The assistant director Jen is amazing as well..Im so glad that I found this school. I could not have found a better school for my son!
