Kids Academy has truly been a blessing to me and my family! My daughter started attending Kids Academy last year in the toddlers classroom, and her teachers were absolutely stellar! She is moving on to the Butterflies classroom this year, and I can t wait to see what she will learn this year! I am shocked and appalled at some of the reviews on here, and felt compelled to leave one of my own. I am a teacher in the public schools, and so I can readily speak to the caliber of care and education offered by this state-of-the-art facility. My daughter attended another daycare prior to coming here, and I have to say: the level of cleanliness here is second to none! In her old daycare, she would get sick just about every month, and the level of cleanliness was questionable. At Kids Academy, there is no question of the level of cleanliness. A child puts a toy in their mouth? It is promptly sprayed with sanitizer and given time to dry before making its way back to the toy box. A child gets a diaper change? The changing table is sprayed between every child s changing time, the teacher always wears gloves, and the childs hands are promptly washed with soap and water when they are done. I have observed all of this firsthand. My child was hardly sick this past year, maybe once or twice...nothing like when she was at the other daycare, so cleanliness definitely makes a difference. There was mention in another review of teacher-child ratios. I feel the need to state that Florida state daycare standards place the ratio for 18 month olds at 6:1, and 27 month olds at 11:1. I have always observed the teachers being very self-aware of the teacher-child ratio, and paging for another teacher to help in the classroom whenever appropriate, to maintain the ratio. Parents may not like the state-issued ratios, but I can guarantee you every daycare will be running at those same standards in the entire state of Florida. Moreover, I have always noticed prompt reporting of any incidents as they arise, and have never had the experience of seeing any marks on my child without my being notified of what happened and having to sign off on it that I was notified. As a Floridian, what especially sold me on this daycare was the indoor playground/art studio, and the two gardens they have for the children to grow stuff! I have not seen these two amenities in any other daycare in the area, which really separates Kids Academy from the rest. Florida rains are serious! One minute it is sunny, the next minute it is raining like a monsoon--so the value of having an indoor playground with those fluctuating changes in the weather is particularly invaluable--versus having a tent set up for kids to stand under if it suddenly rains, as many daycares often have. And when the harvests come in, parents get to enjoy a small portion of the spoils for free! Nothing like fresh parsley to spice up a new recipe! In closing, I cannot begin to express my gratitude to all of the phenomenal teachers and staff at Kids Academy. It takes a special group of people to truly work with babies and children with care and compassion while creating a conducive learning environment everyday. They are the best at what they do, and quite simply: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! I would recommend this school to anyone willing to pay for exceptional child care for their baby/child. Always professional, always exceptional: that is Kids Academy. But don t take my word on it, go and see what I saw!

I am a lucky mom. Kids Academy is very close to my house. Both of my boys (1.5 yrs and 4.5 yrs) are attending to Kids Academy which I believe is one of our regions most extraordinary educational treasures, and you just need to experience the difference yourself. I visited every school around this area before I made my decision and Kids Academy was the shining star in between them. If you are looking for a school that combines superior selection on teachers, culturally rich curriculum for every age group, a diverse student body, nice and clean classrooms and fun but safe environment for your child, Kids Academy (where every single member of the team knows your and your child’s name) is the place for your child. Summer campers I have two words for you “WATER PLAY’, my boys love it

My children have attended Kids Academy for the last 5 years and they love going to school. When I drop them off and go to work I know they are well taken care of and most of all safe. The teachers they have had through the years have all been very knowledgeable with the skills they have needed to keep advancing. I am amazed every day with what they show me they have learned. The curriculum is very modern with the technology they will need in school. I highly recommend Kids Academy, I know your family will love it as much as we do.

Im confused ...why have 3 good, well -written reviews at the same exact date? seems very fake reviews to me - Plus I went to do a tour... the facilities are awesome, but when I got in the toddlers classroom... was a nightmare! 1 teacher per 9 kids, (18 kids plus 2 teachers)... All kids was crazy, pushing each other, screaming and all!!! and it was right after naptime ... The teachers was paying attention for only one kid. It was not a good impression to me - I marked out on my preschool candidate list.

The location is very convenient to access. The building is clean and nicely decorated. They have state-of-the-art learning tools. The staff has not been trained to use them but the potential is there. The only downside is the husband and wife owner dont particularly care for racially blended families. I havent witnessed any abuse of the multi racial children in their care but they have made their point of view on that matter very clear. Other than that you get a decent value for what you spend there.

I love Kids Academy, enrolled my son when he was 18 months old and he attended there until he was 4. We moved so unfortunately had to change schools, but he learned so many great things, the teachers helped potty train him, he always says please, thank you excuse me. Biggest playground compared to most schools in the area-even have an indoor playground when there are rainy days. Parking and coming in and out of the school is easy, the teachers are the best-great school, highly recommend.

The School and 95% of the teachers are loving and caring, except some rude and careless teachers (but those are 1 or 2) if anything address the problem and will get fix. My kid is with them since 6 month old now is 3 years, nice super clean, has cameras in each room, but one of the bad thing here for the $$$$$$$ you paid… they DO NOT POTTY TRAIN YOUR KID, unless your son ask… Helloooo is a kid not an adult. Overall 4 star.

They have opened their arms to every child I have placed in their care. I have had 7 children go through the program. The director is very approachable and knowledgable. The teachers treat my children with love and respect.
