The teachers and staff are extremely kind, professional, and it's easy to see they genuinely care for the children. The facility always seems clean. I just cannot recommend Kidde Academy enough.
My son Cohen absolutely loved his time at Kiddie Academy. Their hands on approach to education created an environment where my son not only felt safe, but was encouraged to get involved, to accept challenges, which led to healthy and rapid development. The genuine care from the staff is also comforting.
I really appreciate the balance Kiddie Academy of Urbana created between education and care. The staff is not only warm and nurturing, but also clearly focused on helping the children grow academically, socially, and emotionally. My child attended the school age program since the age of five. She has been a huge fan of Kiddie Academy since her first day attending. She loves going to all the events and was very excited when she was able to return for CampVentures this summer. She truly enjoyed her summer thanks to KAU. I recommend it a thousand percent!
I can’t say enough good things about this daycare! From the moment we enrolled, I’ve felt complete peace of mind knowing my kids are cared for in such a safe, loving, and fun environment. The staff are patient, attentive, and genuinely care about each child as if they were their own.
My kids look forward to going every day. They’ve grown so much socially, emotionally, and academically since starting here. I love the way the teachers communicate with parents, keep us updated, and create an atmosphere where kids feel both nurtured and challenged.
The classrooms are clean, well-organized, and full of engaging activities that keep the children excited to learn. It truly feels like a family, and I’m so grateful to have found a place that not only cares for my kids but also invests in them.
I highly recommend this daycare to any parent who wants their child in a safe, caring, and positive environment.
I cannot say enough positive things about KAU. The teachers are phenomenal and everyone is so friendly. I was nervous to send my infant to daycare but have absolutely no regrets about selecting KAU and hope to continue there!
I absolutely love this daycare! The staff is incredibly friendly, caring, and always willing to help. They make us feel like family and provide a safe, nurturing environment for my son. Communication is excellent—they always respond promptly to any questions or concerns. It’s clear that they truly care about the children, and I have complete peace of mind knowing my child is in such good hands. Highly recommend!
I love the attentiveness of the teachers. My daughter loves Kiddie Academy. She’s now able to spell her name, recognize numbers, letters and shapes. I also love that there’s a live camera that you can access when your child is there. I will definitely recommend Kiddie Academy.
Our last year here, we are definitely going to miss this place.
Our child learn so much during these years, while developing social relationships and developing self confidence.
It was an amazing journey, I hope her next step in life will be positive experiences like that one!
The teachers and staff are all great! My 5yr old enjoyed the past year in pre k and she learned so much. Ms. Jennifer was great and sad to see her go but happy Luna was able to have her as a teacher.
We absolutely love this kids care center! From the very first day, we felt warmly welcomed and supported. The teachers and staff are truly amazing — kind, attentive, and incredibly dedicated. They take the time to really get to know each child, offering a personal, caring approach that makes every child feel special and understood.
Our child is always happy and excited to go in the morning, which speaks volumes. We’ve seen so much growth — not just educationally, but emotionally and socially. The environment is safe, nurturing, and filled with positive energy. The classrooms are bright and well-organized, and the activities are thoughtfully planned to keep the children engaged and learning through play.
We’re especially grateful for how communicative and responsive the team is. They keep us updated with daily notes, photos, and feedback, which we deeply appreciate as parents.
It truly feels like a second home for our child. We couldn’t have asked for a better place, and we highly recommend it to any parent looking for a loving, high-quality childcare experience.
We have had an excellent experience for several years at Kiddie Academy. My daughter has learned a lot, feels comfortable with her teachers and class, and has made great friends.
The admin staff communicates well with the teachers. We have previously experienced that it's not always the case at other daycares.
We appreciate that Ms Connie sent out a notice about flu cases in our group, as well as the groups that play together.
I like that teacher communicate well with the parents. They are always happy to answer any questions.
I like that state guidelines and regulations are followed.
I would absolutely recommend the Day Care to my friends. The personal is great, it is very well organized and Ms Connie is highly professional and necessary in supervising the well being of the children and maintaining communications with the parents.
Foodwise it would be good that the children have also some meat or fish for lunch time some days belong the week, it doesn't have to be every day.
Maybe also have some variations in the menu or a real cook who elaborates a variations of menu to avoid repetitions like the pizza's with hidden veggies every Friday.
Is there any parent council? I know this from back home and it is a big help and it brings inputs/ ideas for constent improvement and to maintain a healthy environment for the kids and the day care.
10/10 big up to you all and keep going !
All the best
