Since originally enrolling over 7 years ago the ownership changed hands at the end of 2018. The new…read morechanges to the center have only added to the value and experience for my children. My oldest has been enrolled in KA of UF for over 7 years. Starting fulltime at 12 weeks old and since moving to their before/after care. Newell Elementary School provides bussing to and from the center which makes it convenient to have one place to drop off and pick up both kids. My youngest has been in for over 3 years and was fulltime through the pandemic since I was an essential worker and required to be in the office. The policies they implemented, intense cleaning regiment, and open communication they provided throughout made me feel comforted that he would be safe and healthy during the pandemic. KA has always treated my family like family. From the moment you walk in you are greeted with smiles and pleasant hellos which are only echoed by the teachers when dropping your kids off in their classrooms. You can tell the teachers truly care for your children and their well-being. The hallways are covered with artwork and pictures of fun activities that change throughout the year. The classrooms have even more artwork revolving around a theme for the season. The education program is great, with the school year having weekly themes that have a logical flow for the children to follow. Besides the administrative staff, Naylon (the owner) is there (almost) everyday and her door is always open to listen to your compliments, concerns, or issues. The entire staff is always very open and honest about issues, potential closures, or illnesses. There is always important information provided through the Tadpole app to keep you informed. Including fun events that they put on periodically throughout the year like trunk or treat, muffins with mom, donuts with dad, magic shows, and more. Always hoping yoga with goats will come back. As an added bonus, KA of UF also has cameras which is always a nice comfort. I enjoy peeking in on my youngest periodically to see what kind of chaos he is causing.

This school sets the standard for how early Education should…read morebe done. The staff is amazing and the teachers are unbelievable. I have 2 children that both look forward to going to school every day and sometimes don't want to leave when I came to pick them up! I watch my children get excited about the things they are learning and they can't wait to explain it all to me. Their summer camp is amazing also. They take field trips once a week and have fun and exciting things for the kids to participate in every day. If you're looking for a daycare or preschool look no further. There is no where else I would rather send my kids.
