Let me start by saying i toured multiple different schools including other Goddard facilities. I knew instantly after meeting Mrs. Donna and touring her facility that it was exactly where i wanted my daughter to be. My daughter went on to three different classrooms and was at this location for over two years. I am an avid supporter of both the teachers and director of this school. I would not change my experience for anything!

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.

The teachers in her classroom have been there for a long time and just love on those kiddos. I don't care about an education, she's 8 months, I just want someone to care for her while I am working and there hasn't been a day that's passed where I didn't feel that was the case! During COVID, their precautions make us feel at ease everyday so this virus has been the least of our worries. They have incorporated minimal lobby capacity, temperature checks, masks, and hand sanitizer. The only bummer is that parents cannot go past the lobby so we have never spent time in her room. :/ hopefully that will come back one of these days! The app is one of my favorite parts! We get little updates throughout the day on what's going on with her and sometimes even a picture, it's the best. I'm so glad we chose KinderCare for our daughter and I would highly recommend, especially for infants!

So far I have loved all the teachers at the school. My daughter started here at 5 months old and…read morewas in the infant room with Linda & Iman. 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.

We currently have our second Primrose student (5 years age gap). For both of our kids it was our…read morefirst choice, but we ended up sending them to other local daycares first due to Primrose not having space when we needed to transition from grandma care to school. Primrose is exceptional even in the "high end" daycare space. I think the difference is that they treat the employees and 'customers' like family. Our son has the same teacher as our daughter did. That's right-their employee retention is so good that there are the same teachers after 5 years. Amazing for an industry known for turn over. My son barely talks, but tells me everyday Ana (his teacher) is his best friend. Lastly I will add that when we experienced a family tragedy in 2017, I will never forget the kindness and compassion the entire staff at Primrose showed. Knowing my daughter was surrounded by people who loved her during this very hard time is priceless.

I first tried Care.com and other online sitter search sites and found them time consuming and less than reassuring. I would be on my own for interviews and background checks--way too much work and expense for a one-time event. Luckily, I found Sitters to the Rescue and it was exactly what I was looking for. They have their own network of experienced, background-checked sitters, and the service contacted a sitter who met my specific needs (infant, Saturday night, etc.) They were very knowledgeable about setting up a sitter in a hotel room and anticipated needs I wouldn't have, like having the sitter check in at the front desk. When our awesome babysitter arrived I felt completely comfortable. The hourly rate was a little more than if I had found a sitter on my own, but considering it included the legwork it was a good deal. If we need a sitter in the Indianapolis area again, I will definitely be using Sitters to the Rescue.
