As an educator and a parent, I feel the need to warn parents about this place. My daughter used to…read morebe in the toddler room, which is located in the basement of this facility. She loved going to school until her head teacher resigned and was replaced by a ruthless individual. Soon my child's behavior changed. She was petrified of even passing by the school and would grab onto me whenever I had to drop her off. Everyday, her teacher would give me a bag with a wet t-shirt. According to her, my daughter would purposely throw up on herself in order to avoid eating (she was not a behavior problem but was a picky eater). When I asked the directors to let me see the videos in order to understand why my daughter's behavior had drastically changed, they told me that the cameras were not working on such week. I have recently received a letter from an ex-employee that quit because she couldn't take the children's abuse. This letter states how this woman forcefully grabbed my 2-year-old daughter and washed with really cold water just because she lacked an appetite (My daughter was desperately crying as she was doing this). To make things worse, she left my daughter all wet until she would calm down from crying (I guess that is the explanation for all the wet t-shirts that I received throughout a week). The letter goes on explaining the various forms of abuse that takes place in this daycare. I posted her letter on their Facebook page, but for obvious reasons it was taken down. I have been an elementary teacher for 8 years and as a professional as well as a parent, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL!

The toys are specifically chosen for creative thinking. No TV! Love it.

There is a very good mix of educational activities along with some good old-fashioned fun, and lots of time for the kids to jump and play and spend time outdoors. But the real difference is the people. Well trained, courteous, and most importantly really love and know how to handle children. They bring out the best in kids.

Coming from a preschool education background I knew what I wanted and didn't want. I searched for months before finding my boys a home away from home. When I walked into BBA3 I just knew. The open floor plan is something I had never seen but loved immediately. The owners story as to why they opened the center and their strong family values had me at hello. In tears I decided this was the one. The entire staff is very kind, sincere and caring. I can go on and on. I would recommend this and any of BBA's locations to bring your child and have peace of mind in their care. Thank you BBA3 staff for all that you do and for who you are.

They helped to guide my 3 year old son on the world around him, but also introduced the beginnings of Pre-K learning. My son loved going to school here - he made many of his firsts here. He loved his teachers and all of his classmates, and I can't forget the guards. Months later he still talks about them and what he misses; we will have to visit. The playground is like-new, under a beautiful tree. The kids go outside, and on small walking trips around the park and The City Hall. The center is inside the Federal Building, so you will have to go through security...everyday, but that's OK.

My two children attend this school, and if I had to sum it up in one word, it would be care. The…read moretraditional public school system just didn't measure up in my opinion. Here, the teacher-to-student ratio allows for more one-on-one attention, which helps students excel at a much faster pace. In all the years we've been part of this school, I have yet to see a teacher or staff member without a smile. They are rooted in biblical principles each morning, and they lead by example. That spirit shows in the way they interact with the children and families. I came across a comment from another parent about a billing issue. While I'm sure it was simply a systems error that the school resolved appropriately, I don't believe one isolated incident should overshadow the countless good things this school has provided for our children. No school public or private is perfect, and both must cover costs to remain open. For perspective, public schools cost taxpayers around $25,000 per student each year. Yet, many parents at KCA are not only already paying those taxes, but also willingly investing in their child's foundation years here at less than a quarter of that cost. That sacrifice speaks volumes about the value this school provides parents and students alike. Give credit where credit is due. "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." - Proverbs 22:6

Mrs. Renata is rude and unprofessional and shows a clear lack of empathy and understanding when dealing with parents and families. She can be very passive-aggressive when speaking and has made interactions with the school unnecessarily uncomfortable and frustrating. A front desk employee should make families feel welcomed, respected, and heard, but unfortunately that has not been my experience. The way she communicates and handles situations reflects poorly on the school. I sincerely hope the administration takes this feedback seriously and considers providing better customer service training or finding someone who is more compassionate, professional, and respectful.
