I normally dont write reviews due to being a busy parent. I really have to say that this is by far the best daycare center that i have seen in Loudoun County. I have visited many schools and also enrolled in several before i found this one. Rooms are clean and teachers are wonderful. My son attended the 2s class with Ms Sonya and Ms Attaya they are great teachers they go the extra miles to care for the kids. The director and owner are always there, i have never seen a daycare center that greet you every time you walk in and out of the place. The owner is there most of the time and my son love him. He always hand out stickers to the children very friendly guy. All the staffs in this centers are very friendly. My son attended this school since Sept 2nd 2014. I waited for awhile before writing this review. My son used to attend a different school last year, long story short i pull him out b/c he had a really bad accident in the school. He got hang up in the net of the playground by the neck and was all bruise up he could have died that day due to suffocation. The teachers there didnt realized that he got caught up in the net when they found out they simply just told him to come down by himself. I was furious when i found out what happened to him so we removed him right away and enroll him in another center. Well he cried every day doing drop off for 2 months at the new center. He was not himself he said he didnt like the school and the playground. As a parent i was very concern and didnt know what to do since i just switch school to attend this one and now he didnt like it. I drove by Kiddie Academy one day and my son said i want to go to this school i like this playground. The next day i called the school and wanted a tour i told the owner my concern that my son has been crying for 2 months doing drop off and he was very helpful. He greet us when my son and i came in for the tour. He work with us on doing just drop in first to see how my son like it. We did one day of drop in and then sign him up for full time. Lets just say the second day of school at Kiddie he already want to come back to school and love his teachers. He is back to himself and love school. We are so glad that we found Kiddle Acadmey and will be staying for a long time. Hope this review helps parents that are looking for a great daycare around this area.

Im not big on writing reviews but given the peace of mind Kiddie Academy has given our family, I thought it was the least I could do. My son is 6 months old and has been attending KA for 2 months now. We had a bad experience with our previous daycare so me and my husband were a little on edge with respect to daycares in general. The teachers and the owner have been nothing short of amazing these last two months. Even though I can log onto my computer and check on my son during the day, I dont feel the need to anymore because they have built such a high level of trust with me and my husband. It is nice to see what they are up to though. Digital sign-on is required to unlock the door and each parent selects their own name and personal pin number. I am a huge fan of that. Also, the owner and principal sit right by the door and can see everyone who is coming in. Security was a major concern to us and being able to track who is coming in and out is not an issue here. The teachers are SO friendly and attentive. It was very important to me to feel like my family and my sons daycare were a team which means being able to work on things like his milestones and sleeping/eating habits TOGETHER. In talking to any of the teachers at pick up or drop off, I can tell that they know my childs personality and abilities. Something as small as saying "Yes. His neck muscles are really strong and we have been working on sitting up". Those things really matter to new parents especially who dont always know exactly what to do next. I really appreciate the wealth of knowledge they have given me in these short months. All daycare centers call when your child is sick but on two occasions I have received calls just to let me know my son wasnt his usual happy and smiley self. Its so nice to feel like his teachers care about him as much as I do. I know my son is in good hands when I drop him off and as a working mother, that is priceless. Ive received some of the best information from other mommies so I just wanted to pay it forward. I really hope this review helps someone who is worried about choosing the right daycare for their child. Kiddie Academy of Ashburn is a gem!

We are so lucky to have found KA of Ashburn for our 2 YO son. This school has done everything "right" and is the BEST childcare center you can find out there; Great management team (always listen to our concerns and comments), experienced staff, and well-planned curriculums. The tuition fees are not outrage expensive like some others. Our son is extremely happy and looking forward to go to school to see his teachers and friends everyday. To go over in a little detail, here are what I like about KA of Ashburn. The facility is brand new and well-designed. Front door is secured and accessible only by registered guardian with passcode. Owner and Principal offices are right at the door and they can see everything through their big windows. Toddler classrooms are bright, clean and the entrance are constructed with cut open wall. (your child will never be accidentally locked in class alone without someone noticing) Each room has a webcam for you to view from a computer or smartphone. Therere 3 shaded, well-equipped playgrounds with riding toys and a track for them to ride on. Teachers are educated, experienced, friendly, and caring. You can learn about all of them from the Profile Wall hanging by the hallway. The turnover rate is very low. I see more new teachers coming in than leaving. Everyone wear gloves when handling food or changing child diaper. At the end of the day, you will get a report sent to your email with summary of what your child have done for the day. They keep great communication with parents. My son and I love our teachers, our food manager (whos taking special care of our son who has mild food allergy) and the management team.

Kiddie Academy is an excellent facility and is run by a director who truly cares about the children and his employees. I love the Tadpole system whereby daily "reports" are sent to me regarding my childs day at Kiddie Academy. I have never seen such a system for relaying information -- its incredible! My child previously attended another day care center and my child would come home singing a song (in toddler talk so I only understood every third word). It took me a while to figure out what my child was singing! While at Kiddie Academy, I knew exactly what my child was singing while at home since the daily report is so detailed and included every activity for the day! Kudos to the teachers, too -- what a wonderful bunch of people! I walk into Kiddie Academy and feel like I am going to Sunday dinner with my family - everyone greets you by name and is genuinely concerned about you and your child. It is heart-warming! I also love the facility. The playground is separated by age and is shaded (a major plus!!). There is an indoor gym for playing when there is in-climate weather. The rooms are open, spacious and the toys are constantly updated. You can watch your child on the streaming webcam (secured site). I have referred numerous friends to Kiddie Academy and every single one has thanked me for introducing them to the Kiddie Academy family.
