Maria was extremely wonderful in setting up a last-minute appointment for a tour and providing all the details of what she has to offer and her expectations. She was also very patient with my child and kept him busy with activities he loved! After the first day, I felt extremely comfortable going back to work knowing that my child was in good hands. Every day I picked him up he had a whole list of things he learned being with her. Her prices are extremely reasonable considering everything she has to offer including daily homemade meals and snacks! Oh, and I know parents are concerned because of COVID but this daycare is kept super clean, organized, and sanitized. Thank you so much and wish you so much success, Maria!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kids Land Academy. My two children have been in their…read morecare for several years, and the experience has been a blessing. Their educational program has prepared my oldest for kindergarten with age-appropriate worksheets, and it's clear that they are genuinely invested in fostering growth and development in every child they care for. They have an excellent outdoor play area, structured daily activities, and even a couple of annual field trips that make this daycare special. My son comes home talking about all his friends and daily activities. They also provide all snacks and meals for kids over the age of two, which is super helpful for busy working parents. As full-time healthcare workers with unpredictable schedules, finding care with a clear, consistent schedule and flexibility has been incredibly important to us. Kids Land Academy has been wonderful in accommodating our needs. Their minimal closures and understanding of our varying hours make it so much easier to balance work and family life. They have been very willing to work with us when adjustments are needed. A special mention goes to Mr. Naresh, who is possibly the calmest, most patient, and caring individual I've ever met. He has an incredible way with children, and I always feel at ease knowing that my kids are in his capable hands. His calm demeanor and nurturing nature create a safe and welcoming environment for the kids. I highly recommend Kids Land Academy to any parent looking for a caring, educational, and fun place for their little ones. It's truly been an exceptional experience for our family!

When you don't have family to watch your young child, and you have to work to pay the bills, you…read moreare faced with a very difficult decision to find a childcare provider you can trust to treat your child with the love and respect you would if you could just be there with them. When you consider how important these first years are to the emotional and educational development of your precious child, this decision is one of the most important ones you can make as a parent, and it requires a lot of trust. My wife and I faced this dilemma many years ago when we stumbled onto Lalita and the business she had just started, KidsLand Academy. Our son Jude was the first baby to enroll in what would become a thriving childcare built on the passions and talents of a woman who would become a Godsend to us and our child. Lalita gave our son many years of genuine love and care that no amount of money can guarantee. We were blessed to find her, and she and her family will always be close to our hearts, as they were willing to be the family we didn't have to watch our young Jude during those critical years while our family was just starting out. If you are reading this review, you are fortunate to have found her too. Jude is now 13 years old. He is a kind hearted, responsible, and respectful young man who has always been near the top of his class academically. He had a great start. Thank you, Lalita.

When our daughter was 2 1/2 years old, my husband and I made the difficult decision to send our…read morebaby to daycare. We wanted her to be in a place where she would not only be safe and loved, but where she could also learn, grow, and thrive developmentally. We toured several daycares throughout Riverside, and none of them came close to the level of comfort, trust, and peace of mind we felt the moment we walked into The Learning Experience in Redlands. From the incredible leadership of Miss Shannon and Miss Heather to every single teacher and teacher's aide, every person at this school has made a lasting impact on our family, especially on our daughter. They have loved her, encouraged her, celebrated her milestones, and helped shape her into the confident, curious, and kind little girl she is today. Special shout out to Miss Jackie, Miss Vanessa, Miss Ariana, Miss Miranda, Miss Kim! As a parent, leaving your child with someone else is never easy. But The Learning Experience made that transition so much easier by giving us complete confidence that our daughter was in the best hands. That kind of trust is priceless. As our daughter heads off to TK, it's incredibly bittersweet to say goodbye. We are so grateful for the love, patience, and dedication every member of this team has shown our family over the years. Please continue doing what you're doing because it's truly making a difference in the lives of children and their families. We will miss this school more than words can express. Thank you for giving us the peace of mind every parent hopes for and for helping our little girl build such a strong foundation for her future.

I came to update about my son's experience here…read more The experience we have (& continue to have because he'll be here until he goes to "big boy school") is exemplary. The kids enjoy sensory play regularly & a lot of art is incorporated into their days. My son knows his days of the week & is identifying more letters & numbers as his time here progresses. Ms. Christy runs her business so well. I'd give her ten stars if I could. She is very timely with anything administrative & also is so engaging with the students. I watched her help a new student acclimate by playing trains with them the other day & it made me really happy to see that she cares so much. All of the teachers we've had, Ms. Yessenia, Ms. Marina & Ms. Michelle have been exemplary. I truly appreciate the effort they make & the work they do to both educate and nurture. I've witnessed Ms. Michelle help a child who spilled in such an affirming & positive way; on a day my son was having a tough time with drop off she comforted & helped him which made both of us feel a little better. Ms. Marina is wonderfully receptive & I appreciate her going out of her way to connect with me & to reassure me. My son really loves both of them & Ms. Christy so much. Every morning when we arrive he excitedly calls out their names & is so happy to see them! I'm beyond grateful we found this school. It truly has been the perfect fit & I'm so thankful for the way it's ran & the staff that makes the kid's days so joyful & fun. My son was able to have a mini birthday with his classmates & he was talking about it for days after. I'm really glad for the community that's created at star kids.

They accommodate our schedule and have even had a couple of his speech therapy sessions there when conflicting schedules made it impossible to do at home.
