The teachers in room 1 take the time to know about each child. The teachers have worked with our child on some PT needs and give detailed notes at pick up.

We love many of the specific teachers, but the Tadpoles app is very disappointing. I wish we could get live updates and a more effective app altogether.

Hi Alyssa, we are happy to hear that you love our classroom teachers! We pride ourselves on the quality educators we bring onboard and strive to make meaningful, lasting connections with our students! We are always working to find more ways to keep the family connections strong. Our Tadpole's app is only one of the tools we use daily. Please always feel free to call the office and we can give you real time updates or relay important messages immediately to the classroom. Technology is great, but we love our interpersonal communication with our families even more! Looking forward to our continued partnership together!

The teachers are the absolute best! They are amazing with the children and really demonstrate genuine care. I love seeing the creative activities that are put together each week even for infants! I feel so lucky that my 8 month old baby is so well cared for during the day. This gives me so much peace of mind as a full time working mom. Thank you for everything you do, Kiddie Academy!

All teachers and staff are so caring. They clearly love their work and want to help students and parents in any way they can. As new parents, they’ve made childcare much less stressful and more rewarding!

As a first timer parent and having to put my child in childcare, I think Kiddie Academy in park ridge was the best pick. The teachers do find a way to get the child comfortable to try to fit in. I love the reports given in a daily, the constant update pictures on my child and the class room. The teachers at least from my experience for toddlers have patience, very friendly and welcoming and I can say the same for the admin staff and director.

I like that they keep the kids busy doing different activities all day and posting pictures/videos for the parents.

We’ve had a great experience. Sarah was so welcoming during our tour and was a part of the reason we selected Kiddie Academy over the 4 other places we toured. We were able to meet with the teacher before our son started so we could ask questions and were allowed to bring our son into his new room before he started so he would be more comfortable on his first day. Our son’s teacher is great and communicates well with us. We have had a great experience so far!

All of the teachers are kind and communicative and want what is best for our baby. We also love the curriculum, variety of activities, and menu! It’s wonderful knowing my baby will have time to learn and grow and try new healthy foods every day.
