Our experience was great with this school and I'm glad we found Scott and Emily. My youngest son…read morestarted here for what we thought would be one year before we started him in The Orchard School, which is where our oldest is attending school. Instead, the experience was so good they earned the right to keep our son one more year before heading off to Orchard. There were lots of little things I appreciated about his experience here: 1 - Healthy eating! Emily and her staff were consistent in their message that kids need healthy snacks and this fits well with my personal belief we are what we eat. My son came home asking for broccoli! 2 - Geography and pin poking - This is a Montessori activity that I didn't know anything about until his experience. My son completed a map of each continent, opening the door to talking about those areas of the world and what they do there, eat there, sing there, etc. We still have these maps up in our home and use them as a reference when talking about areas of the world. 3 - Reading and singing - Scott coming and playing Rudi music on Wednesdays was a highlight for my son. When he started there, my son wasn't sure about himself or going to school and Scott's music brought out my son's personality and helped give him confidence and joy for singing and learning all the new words, sounds and days that came with those songs. He really started his love of reading here, too, which I appreciate as an avid reader. 4 - Behavior growth - My son really thrived in a time where learning those social skills, learning how to manage your emotions, learning appropriate responses to others in those situations, etc. because of the guidance at this school. I very much recommend this school as a solid choice for helping your young child get started on the right foot for their education.

What can we say about IMS? There are almost too many wonderful things to mention in one review!…read more Miss Ranee has such a passion for teaching children. She is patient, calm and direct. She expects the children to excel, and she helps give them the confidence to rise to the occasion. All of the teachers are quick to identify student's strengths and areas for growth and have consistently communicated his learning plan to us via daily notes and parent teacher conferences. My son was recognizing his letters when he first started Kindergarten, and is now able to read level one chapter books at the end of the year. His verbal and written communication have improved exponentially as well, and despite his naturally shy demeanor, he is now confidently reciting poetry in front of classmates and parents. The curriculum is top notch as well and we love the diversity of subjects that the school teaches. The school staff is also fabulous. Miss Erica in the front office is always there to help with anything the parents or children need during the day. I always felt confident sending my child to school each day. I can't recommend IMS enough!

Although we are not members of the non denominational church, I am enticed to try it out because of the caliber of the preschool. They focus on creative play, arts/music, and take great field trips. They do amazing art projects and get involved in the community with firemen days, etc. My two sons have been loved and nurtured in beginning their educational journeys; I am SO thankful we found St. Peters, it nearly brings tears of joy (my oldest son had some poor early experiences elsewhere). And finally the price, IMO, is quite affordable. I think nearly all of the staff hold B.S. degrees and many have earned master's. You can see each day, how they love their jobs and the great culture they have developed. This is a place you want your child to be.

The parent orientation was extremely helpful in preparing me for what to expect, what to bring to daycare each day, their policies, logistics, etc. The teachers and front office staff go above and beyond. Being a first time mom, they were super helpful in advising me when they thought she was ready to start having their breakfast there (as opposed to just bottles). They use the Procare app which updates me during the day whenever she eats, has a diaper change, naps, etc. The precautions they have put in place for COVID are top of the line and make me feel very comfortable as a parent (who was in a complete bubble for 8 months). The level of care they provide is just extraordinary: applying Aquafor to her chapped chin, advising the need of diaper cream for the first time she really needed it, etc. I truly feel like they care for my child as if she were their own. On top of the quality of care, she has also learned so much since being enrolled, in which every day's lesson is shared with me at the end of the day (email summary). If you're considering childcare, you will not regret sending your kids here!

This is really a great program and a great school with such caring teachers. The pamphlets and…read moretour and curriculum boast many textbook accolades and the many a things of what your child will learn. The teachers follow the program but realistically it's still up to the individual student how much they will get out of it. We have tried creme de la creme formerly Children's Learning Adventure previously as well as had nannies and done the half day mdos and church programs. We took the tour here a few times and were wowed but not sold for the extremely high price tag. When covid shut the world down and day cares closed and nannies quit coming or were sick more than they were well we watched the primrose Facebook pages and noticed if nothing else they were consistent, reliable, and pretty great communicators if they did ever close. Neither of our workplaces closed during covid so we needed something reliable and decided to give it a try. We were still weary the first few weeks as we would get a few pics every morning of group activities and of circle time and a few individual pics through out the week. My expectations were too high for some reason I thought I would get more and daily reports on how our child did. Instead it was more this is what class did today. Where we see them excel is that even at the preschool level they allow you nights to come meet the teachers, see the curriculum first hand, ask questions. They planned a trunk or treat to be a part of the school community (the teachers went all out to decorate their cars) and know kids outside of class not just in their classsrooms, and they offer parents teacher nights. They welcome questions and made time for our concerns. They know exactly what motivates your child, their strengths and weaknesses and are great at assessing them and finding ways to help them grow and are working on things beyond the textbook materials. At that point in coming in and meeting with the teachers did we see how much they cared and how vested they are. Communication in the app doesn't do this place justice. Listening to other parents doesn't do it justice either. It's a great group of ladies here. They are loving and caring and attentive.. Being involved and getting to know and listening to your teachers puts a new level of respect for these wonderful caring humans. Our kiddo loves her teachers and looks forward to school and any activity that she will get to see them.

Only concern is the parking lot and drop off and pickup.. it is extremely hectic and many parents tend not to pay attention very well.. as long as you take your time it's fine..

They are so loving and caring for these little babies. My daughter has since moved up two classrooms but every morning we walk by and my daughter wants to stop and say hi to Linda & Iman. We both adore them. Her next class she was in with Carmen and Makayla and unfortunately it was only for a few months because my daughter adored these teachers as well. Especially Carmen! In the mornings, my daughter would go straight to Carmen and turn around and waive me. Goodbye. Although that made me sad it also made me so happy knowing she loved being at school. These teachers were so interactive with their kids and really had fun with them. We just moved up to our third room and I can't review yet on those teachers but I have no doubts I'd give them 5 stars too. I will admit when we joined earlier this year the place was a bit chaos, but since they've gotten a new Director and it has been an entirely different experience. The teachers have remained the same and the communication is way better. I'd highly recommend this place for anyone needing care for their kids.

Kiddie Academy was one of our top choices when we got on 4 waitlists in October 2022 (8 months in advance of our daughter's due date). We ended up needing to move up our start date by 3 weeks due to our daughter's early arrival. All of our waitlist placements fell through and we were in a total panic. Erica at Kiddie Academy got us in when we called in June 2023, and we are so happy with the care provided for our baby. Lynda and Iman are amazing with all of the infants. They are absolutely wonderful caregivers and we could not be happier with them. I trust them when I drop off my now 4 month old. I can peek into the classroom using the webcam service and if the teachers aren't feeding or changing an infant, and the infant isn't napping, they are playing or cuddling with each one! I second the other reviewer who states the new administrators are doing a great job. I know staffing/turnover is an issue across the industry and I hope Kiddie Academy can do whatever it takes to retain their caregivers.
