My 3 year old has learned through the curriculum and how to Care and share. ----- Author: Michelle Leo Rating: 5/5 Date: 5/22/2024, 7:03:49 PM Review: My husband and I love Kiddie Academy. We have been sending our two children for 2 years now. Their curriculum is outstanding as well as communication with their in house app. They plan extra activities outside of school so families can meet and mingle. Our oldest just graduated VPK and they had an outstanding graduation as well as a VPK prom. I thank you for loving my children as if they were your own. Kaitlynn and Morgan run an amazing educational daycare where your children are safe, having fun daily and ready to enter Kindergarten. ----- Author: Lisa DeHayes Rating: 5/5 Date: 5/24/2023, 12:54:47 PM Review: I love how well rounded the curriculum is and the teachers are great!

Was excellent for my daughter when she attended
The owner of this location is amazing! She is so thoughtful and caring and has really gone the extra mile for our family. We really appreciate her and the amazing work she does!
I love it!! My baby has learned so many different things from this school. She‚Äôs been here since she was 1. Her speech is excellent. She even got potty trained from here. When she first started I was extremely nervous as any other parent would be. I did pop ups, phones call and whatever was needed for me to feel as though my baby was in great hands. Now I drop her off and keep ROLLING. This is one of the best daycare I have by far seen. Lastly, I would like to say the fact my child begs me to come to school say something right there. I know finding the right daycare for your child can be a headache. But please look no further. Thank you for loving on my child as if she was yours. üíï
Been taking my daughter her for about 3 months now. everything has been very pleasant and she seems to like the place and the friends shes met there.
Most of these positive reviews are written by staff family/friends. This place is terrible. They treat their staff terribly and prioritize money over everything. A lot of times employees have to call multiple times over the course of many many minutes to even use the restroom. It’s nothing but drama between management, staff, and even parents. Unless you want your child to end up sick or hurt and have nothing done about it, don’t go here!! There’s are plenty of options that are cheaper, close by, and better. Don’t give them the time of day. From one parent to another, do your research on daycares and read REAL reviews from people like me who had to watch it all go down. Not some facade of a review manufactured by management to make you believe this place is anything but horrible.
The children are always sick here, none of the managers follow through with any of their policies and allow children to stay at the facility with fevers, diarrhea, pink eye, and hand foot and mouth. If a teacher becomes sick management pressures them into coming in (even when contagious). If a teacher calls out management makes them regret it later by cutting or changing hours without having a proper decision with said employee. Majority of good reviews here are from members of management and their relatives! Grandparents, children, spouses or by parents who are way too close with management and push boundaries with teachers and rules. Staff children are out of control, many times these children harm others and reports aren’t correctly written. If you attempt to correct these children you will be met with a write up. Staff children will also be given medicine when sick getting all of the other children and teachers sick in the class. Communication at kiddie is almost non existent, one member of management will tell you one thing while another member will tell you another. If you care about your child’s wellbeing do not send them here. Management will be considerate and accommodating to your face and as soon as you walk away talk about you behind your back. If you care about your child and their wellbeing do not send them to Kiddie Academy of Bloomingdale, childcare is competitive and you have plenty of options!

My baby sister goes to this school and i have volunteered to help with some of their events. everyone is always so nice and the teachers are very patient with my sister and the other kids.
If I can give any advice to a parent, it would be do not send your children here. It is total chaos between management and employees. Communication with parents is very minimal, even during major health issues. If your child gets hurt, 9/10 won’t tell you until you pick them up. And they never call for fevers. This is no fault of the employees, most of them work very hard but are not given the respect or resources to put out 100%. It’s impossible to keep up with who is taking care of your child because people are always quitting.. you wonder why? They are more focused on money than anything. They do not care about the success of your child. They let kids hang out in the bathroom, drink directly out of sinks, run around the rooms, etc. I encourage you to not give your money or time to these people. Pay attention to who your children are being taken care of by. If you look at how the owners children treat other kids and even adults, you would understand why no parent should have to deal with a place like this.
This academy is the best place for Children and their families to make Lasting memories while Learning the importance of education, caring and thoughtfulness. My 3 year old has learned through the curriculum and how to Care and share.
