I have only had positive experiences with Kids of the Kingdom…read more The staff is genuinely loving and caring. My daughter has always been well cared for over the years. The staff have shown many times that they know and acknowledge her and her interests as an individual. The activities that children participate in at Kids of the Kingdom are awesome as well. They have fun field trips, amazing guests (like a mailman, police man or even me - as a student nurse practitioner!) who come in to speak to the children about their jobs and present interesting information. Sure, they do not look like some corporate child care centers, with expensive-looking buildings with giant stone rainbows or crayons stuck up on the building, or marble counters and huge murals inside. Let's be honest, kids don't care about stuff like that, and if a child care center spends money on things like that, it means there's less to spend on quality staff or field trips or supplies. Kids of the Kingdom is wonderfully different from some of these other places. It is a humble looking child care center that is located inside a local Lutheran church. Kids of the Kingdom clearly focuses their money on providing the children with awesome experiences and fun materials for arts and crafts. They also have a cool playground outside. My daughter has attended Kids of the Kingdom since she was a toddler. She loves it so much that she looks forward to days off of public school (since that is when she now attends Kids of the Kingdom). I think this speaks the most about how high quality this child care center is - my daughter has sometimes asked when was the next time she could attend, and has even counted down the days in excitement and anticipation.

Our daughter started in the toddler class (she was the youngest at that time at just 20 months)…read more And then she also attended pre-school for a bit. We could not have had a better place for our daughter. The place doesn't have those fancy classrooms, toys or playground equipments, but it has super awesome caring teachers and a very nurturing almost perfect environment for a child to grow up, make friends, play, have lot of friends and learn all along. We were super happy while she was there. We completely trusted all the teachers (Ms. Maureen, Ms. Maria, Ms. Ann, Ms Stephanie, Ms Claire, Ms. Grace, Ms. Marge, Ms. Kia) and each of them were genuinely compassionate about all the kids. It was a complete family environment where everyone knew each other, the teacher-child ratio could not have been better (I think it was 1:6). Our daughter was close to all the kids there, we parents also adored the kids, and we knew quite a few of the parents too. We are extremely grateful to Kids of Kingdom for everything, and wish them all the best. Thank you for everything. Aashi and parents

We knew our children were safe, nurtured, and happy. In addition to the warm environment, our children had an excellent education. They brought home so many projects, shared (probably millions) of facts with us ranging from habitats to continents to insects to musicians, and they were taught to read. They learned social emotional skills like problem solving and being kind. We would recommend Little Learners 100 times over. It was the best decision to send our children there.

We have built long-lasting friendships that have survived different elementary schools and activities due to the tight bond the children built while at AMT. The same teachers that welcomed our oldest child when we first started so many years ago are the same teachers that are seeing our youngest child off to kindergarten at the end of this year. The consistency of staffing and lack of turnover are truly unique and it is one of the primary factors that led us to AMT in the first place (and we have not been disappointed!). There will be many tears shed by multiple members of our family when our last child graduates and we move on from this phenomenal, nurturing, home-away-from-home that has been so instrumental in the development of who our children have become. We are eternally grateful for the incredible staff and administration at AMT who have made the lives of these two working parents so much easier and less stressful knowing our children are in the most capable and loving care while away from us.

I want to start off by saying thank you to our current Center Director, Angelica. She has been an…read moreamazing advocate for this center and its community. Recently, a message was sent to me encouraging me to leave this center with my children. The false accusations made were absolutely disgusting and concerning. My daughter has been attending this center since she was an infant and will soon move up to the two-year-old classroom. I admit I previously felt uneasy regarding the teachers in that specific classroom; however, since the individual who sent out that message has been fired along with another employee, I feel much more comfortable and confident about my daughter moving up. I want to encourage other parents to see the center for themselves. This facility is much more than what a bitter person who was fired for their own actions has to say about it. False accusations are not the way to handle these situations.

We were at this center for nearly five years with two kids. We probably stayed too long, mainly…read morebecause a few teachers genuinely loved our children and made it worth it. But over time, things just kept getting worse. I highly recommend you do not trust this center with your children. We experienced bottles and naps being skipped in the baby room, three-year-olds told they couldn't play outside because they couldn't zip their own jackets, and constant leadership changes. They have had at least four directors in 5 years, and no director at all for the last year. At one point, we raised concerns about our baby not being fed, and the regional director told us we should maybe find another center. We should have listened. The assistant director left in charge the last year has allowed things that really shouldn't happen in a daycare. She brought bleach into classrooms (so strong the smell burned your eyes and stained kids clothes), changed the menu to suit her own kids (cereal and crackers EVERY DAY, let teachers take the daycare bus for coffee, and had her husband and older children hanging around the office all day during the summer. One day she left and put the cook and a teacher who had multiple complaints against her in charge of the entire center. The final straw came when we learned a weed vape had been found under a toddler's cot a few months ago. The teacher responsible is still working there and was even moved to the infant room. She made comments about not wanting to work with kids and joked about hitting one. When parents raised concerns, regional director Phebe either gaslight them, dismissed them, minimized them, or lied. Meanwhile, two teachers who repeatedly spoke up about these issues, making sure everyone in Kindercare leadership knew, even above the regional director, were recently fired. While the girl who brought drug paraphernalia and threatened to hit a 2 year old still employed working with infants none the less. Their dismissal looks like a clear case of retaliation if I ever saw one (in my many years in HR....) There are other serious concerns too: kids were apparently checked in who weren't actually at the center who get government assistance, and with all of this mismanagement, it wouldn't surprise me if the center comes under investigation soon. We recently moved our kids to a center down the street. The difference is amazing. There's a real curriculum, staff actually engage with the children, meals aren't just crackers, and the kids come home happy, not stressed and anxious. Leaving was hard because of the teachers our kids loved, but it was absolutely the right choice. I only regret not doing it sooner. I would not recommend this center. I would recommend you take your children ANYWHERE ELSE. There are serious safety issues, leadership failures, and disregard for the children's safety and well-being, and the regional director is an absolute joke. There is no trust and no hope for change.

I am writing this review so other families can be aware of what happened to us…read more My family began planning our move several months ago, and in August, we contacted Children's Land to secure a January start date for our daughter. We toured the center, submitted all required paperwork, and followed every step exactly as instructed. The previous director personally reassured us that our daughter would definitely have a spot in January, even after she transitioned to another location. Because of this reassurance, we planned our relocation, work schedules, and childcare arrangements around this enrollment. However, in mid-December, just weeks before the planned start date, after we brough our kid to touch base this place, we received an unexpected email from the new director stating that there was no availability for the Two-Year-Old program -- with no explanation, no acknowledgment of prior communication, and no alternative options offered. When I asked for clarification, her response was simply that she was "not aware of previous conversations," and that "typically enrollment begins with a tour." What was even more shocking is that she considered our brief visit last Friday -- which was meant to be a transition visit for our daughter -- as a "tour" that supposedly starts the enrollment process. If this is the case, it implies that after a director change, families must restart the entire enrollment process from the beginning, regardless of months of prior communication, paperwork, or commitments. This is not only ridiculous, but extremely unprofessional and unfair to families who plan responsibly and rely on the center's guidance. The new director's position seems to be that all prior communication "does not count" unless it went through her, essentially erasing months of work, promises, and planning. The tone was dismissive and lacked basic empathy for the situation that her own center created. I understand that childcare availability can be limited, but what was most disappointing was the lack of transparency, poor internal communication, and the absence of courtesy in how this was handled. No family should be told "you have no spot" at the last minute after being reassured for months. I sincerely hope Children's Land will improve their internal processes, director handoffs, and communication with families so that others do not experience the same disruption and frustration. We started from August, and now ended up with no spot. Thank you for letting me your dark side as this is trult not professional.
