Both my boys went to Kid Time over the past 4 years, and I could not recommend it more. We loved the inclusive and loving community -- every child is welcomed and celebrated for who they are. They offer a play-based approach to learning, and the teachers embrace messy, hands-on exploration, letting kids follow their curiosity while building real social and emotional skills along the way. It's clear the staff genuinely care about each child's growth, not just academically but as whole little people. Both of our sons thrived here, and we always felt supported as parents too! read more

Our son attended KidTime and we are so happy we found this school! I have chatted with so many parents and left so many rave reviews for the school online when parents shared they are looking for a preschool or a better fit for their child. We left a previous school and were looking for an environment where our son could thrive, and after touring with the director, Sydney, we knew we had found just the right fit. Our old preschool, a Montessori-style school, didn't do any TK curriculum, so we were worried he wouldn't be as prepared for Kindergarten. Our son missed the cutoff for public TK, so we knew we needed to find a better fit for him. Plus, our previous school wasn't accommodating for our active little dude. KidTime wasn't concerned at all when I mentioned our son wouldn't sit for circle time or stay focused during 'work time'. Instead of concern, we were met with open arms! The school meets the children where they're at! There's no need to hide any problems your child may be having. The school will not only work with you, but they will take the time and care to help your child and your family with any issues. There are no expectations for a child to meet a cookie-cutter mold. Your child will be embraced! The school is very inclusive! I was told, he sounds perfectly at his age level. This is truly refreshing to hear when you're leaving a school that isn't welcoming. The school has a massive backyard with a garden, chickens, and the biggest sandbox you've ever seen, with a water play area as well. There's plenty of shade and trees as well. The school will also apply sunscreen (they supply it, or you are welcome to bring your own). The school prepares fresh meals for the children, which after sending our son to school that didn't; this is such an amazing aspect! It saved our family so much time and hassle. Our son is a great eater, but for children who arent; it's so helpful to have the children all eating the same meal together. A lot of parents have said this helped their picky eaters embrace new foods. Plus, there's onsite water fountains, so we didn't even need to bring a water bottle. Again, you really appreciate this when you realize you don't need to wash a water bottle daily. The staff are so kind and warm! They do really fun activities with the children. Each week they cover a new theme and do activities related to the theme including STEM, art, math, etc. Our son learned about the earth's rotation and how time worked, learned his phonics, etc. Their teaching style is all play-based; at first, I didn't really know what that meant. I thought it was just open play, but it's not. They play a lot of games and do a lot of hands on learning, so they learn through play. It's truly wonderful! They also have a lot of community events, like a Thanksgiving meal where the children prepare all of the dishes, and families are welcome to come and eat together. Plus, they host Trick or Treating, a very lively Cinco de Mayo party, a family camping trip, and many more! Families are also welcome to come at pick up and play with their kids in the backyard! This is so different from a lot of other schools. This is so fun because you can see your child at play! You can join in and meet other families. We're happy our baby will go here as well, and this time for the full experience, as our son joined only joined for one year. They even welcome back alumni for their fun Cinco de Mayo party! Only downside, that they will openly tell you during your tour, children are allowed to be children...meaning they are allowed to get very messy! When I first toured with my baby, I didn't think this would be a good fit for him because he didn't like to be messy; but when he joined later, it wasn't a problem. Some kids do get wildly messy, but our child never did. Just know, that they use all washable materials, so any stain, I was easily able to get out. However, it's very possible, your child might be covered head to toe blue when you go to pick them up! I've seen a mini Smurf there at pickup! read more

Truly a child led program with amazing teachers and staff. The school has a huge play area for the kids to explore and just be kids.

I'm not sure what your kid is doing at school today but mine is having a potato sack race I mean I just CAN NOT say enough positive things about this wonderful place. The communication is top notch, the teachers are amazing. There are community events. But most of all they let the kids play. They play all day with structure of activities. They have choices. They listen to your child. I'm just so so happy with Kidtime. I very highly recommend. read more

My son went to 2 different preschools before we got into Kid Time. Neither school could meet his needs. He had a speech delay, was biting other children, and doctors were concerned that he may have autism. Then, we got a call from Kid Time Mayhew - it was our turn on the waitlist. I toured with Sydney, the Director of the site, and shared the concerns I had. She offered to have my son go visit and play during outdoor time and see how he did. He joined in right away, and I knew that was his new school. I was also introduced to Bre, Kat, and Raquel, all of his potential teachers. I was even connected with another parent with a similar situation. The sense of community in this organization is unreal. This place is inclusive. It's FUN! The teachers are all amazing and they all participate in every child's development. After a few months, my son is now thriving and has caught up with his milestones, and has come leaps and bounds. Something people don't tell you is that you have to also find a school with teachers that listen to you, the parent, and that also care about your well being, too. Being a single mom can get very tiring and overwhelming. Kid Time and the team really take a huge weight off my shoulders knowing my son is being cared for and that he's cared about. Parents - you'll love this place, and your kids will love it here! read more

We moved our son to Kid Time when he was having trouble at his old preschool, and were amazed at the change. The staff really understand child development, and gave him the freedom and physical activity he needed to feel comfortable, as well as giving us stellar advice on managing issues that came up. Problems that repeated over and over at his other school, disappeared within weeks. As a "Lunchie" his day was mostly fun and playtime, and we worried about Kindergarden preparedness, but the staff just told us to be patient and let him develop in his own time. Well, he's one month into the "Ruff Dog" older class and already writing his name and drawing pictures to hang on his wall. So I really feel like their transitional kindergarten / Ruff Dog teachers know what they are doing academically. An all around great school that genuinely cares about your kid. read more

We can't say enough good things about Kid Time and their staff. They spend as much time with our kiddos as we do, and we love them like family. Knowing our kids are safe and loved on all day is priceless. We love how messy and hands on their day is. Don't go here if you want your kids coming home with their clothes in the same state they came in. If you want happy, tired kids who learned a ton and played all day, KT is for you. The owners truly care about the kids, staff and facilities and it shows. read more

My daughter started Kid Time in August 2021 after being on the wait list for two years! So, parents/caregivers, please get on the wait list now! She started off as a Lunchie (3-4 year olds) and is now a Ruff Dogg (4-5). She loves going to Kid Time. She loves all the teachers. They do so many fun activities and they even have chickens on the site! She loves feeding the chickens with Ms. Kate. I was a bit nervous transitioning her from a small, in-home daycare to a big preschool, but the transition was so easy! The staff is super friendly and caring. My family loves being part of the Kid Time family! read more

Both my kids love kid time - one recently graduated but still runs up to hug the teachers when we pick up his little brother who still attends. It's very play focused which is great for them, but with lots of activities mixed in to help them progress academically. Staff do a great job of communicating with parents and they are responsive when questions/needs arise. read more

We have been so pleased that our 4-year-old daughter landed at Kid Time!! We value their play-based approach filled with hands-on activities. Our daughter is happy and developing her social/emotional skills while she climbs among classmates outside, does art, or makes-believe inside. We were surprised how warm and attune every teacher is to each child - no matter if they're in their class or not. We've also enjoyed Kid Time's community-building events like camping and potlucks; it is a special group of parents, children and staff. We can't wait for our two other children to attend! read more

Our daughter attends Kid Time and she absolutely loves it and we do too. They provide a very engaging learning atmosphere that's safe and fun for the kids. They also have open house style events for kids of all ages and parents that are a lot of fun. We have used another preschool which was fine for us, but Kid Time really is a cut above! Our daughter will be there until she goes to kindergarten. read more

We love Kid Time! Our son has grown so much more confident and outgoing since joining just over a year ago! The school is like a family. They have community gardening days, moms night out, cinco de mayo parties- they really want to be sure that the Kid Time community is united. In addition when the director heard from another parent about a tough time our family was going through she reached out personally with a huge and beautiful gesture for my family. Your child is definitely not just another face to them- they are part of the kid time family. One thing to note is Kid Time is more of a play-sensory based learning program so if you are looking for a school to sit your 3 year old down and practice letters over and over this is not that place. Don't worry- by kinder they'll be able to write their names etc but right now my son (who is in the mid-age group) has a different focus each week; whether it be learning about his emotions/feelings, insects, family etc etc...and there is always TONS of singing, dancing, art, playing and exploring! read more

Our son recently started at Kid Time right after his 2nd birthday. We were nervous about the transition, as he was with a nanny in our home for the previous two years (and my husband and I both work from home frequently, so he was used to us being around.) He is also a little speech delayed, which I thought might be a challenge. I had absolutely nothing to worry about! Our son absolutely ADORES Kid Time. He cried when he has to come home! They do so many great activities with the kids, the teachers are so warm and caring and I love that Jack gets to do art, sing, read, cook and play at school. He is learning so much and he's been talking so much more since starting there just a few weeks ago. We chose Kid Time because my neighbors raved about the experience their kids had there, and I couldn't have made a better choice. I can't tell you how lucky I feel to have found such a great place for our son to learn and grow! read more

My daughter has been here since she was 2 years old. She had a hard time adjusting from one on one care to being at a preschool initially, but she now loves her preschool. She has made great friendships here. She loves her teachers. I love that the teachers here make learning fun. She's developed her social skills, learned how to express her feelings and cope with frustration. My daughter loves art and singing. They do lots of art, songs and active outdoor play. She has learned a lot academically and I know she'll be ready for K this year. I'm very happy that my friends recommended this preschool to me. She has so much fun here and is not always ready to leave when I pick her up. My son just started here and the transition went amazingly well. They walk into school holding hands and he's very happy at school. He's been talking much more lately. The school has a huge space for kids to run around and be a kid. They have lots of activities going on throughout the day that keeps him engaged. The teachers here are all great with kids. I highly recommend this preschool. read more

We've been at Kidtime for a year now and are counting the months till our next child can start. The staff are extremely professional, kind and loving. The staff provide a hands on, messy, developmentally appropriate curriculum. My child is so happy to go school and we couldn't be happier! read more

We are so grateful to have found this community of support for our family. KT isn't just about caring for the kids, they work to develop a community. The teachers are so patient, giving, helpful, encouraging, kind, caring and deeply knowledgeable about child development. And those qualities aren't reserved for just the children! To top it off, I've met some awesome families. I hope to be a part of the Kid Time community long after my son leaves the school. read more

I love Kid Time! If you want a pre-school that cares for your child as if they were their own this is the place. The kids learn so much from art, academics to social skills. It makes me so happy having my child in this wonderful school. read more

We LOVE Kid Time and have been a Kid Time family for a year and a half. We now have two little ones attending and have had a great time getting to know all of the teachers. All of the teachers have been excellent and really strive to foster each child's unique interests to help them learn. It is also important to us that the school focuses on developing social skills. The backyard is huge and amazing and all of the kids have a blast running around and playing together. read more

My daughter has been there for a year, and I can't speak more highly of the school and teachers. We love Kid Time! She started when she turned 2, and the teachers were great helping her to make the transition and feel comfortable. I knew she was happy there because she would sing practically all day while she was there. The activities that they do are so creative, and they kids learn through play. I love how attentive every teacher is, they are truly caring, kind and attentive. I highly recommend the school! read more
