Dont send your kid here. 🛑🛑🛑After a year plus here, my daughter was sent home for a few weeks due to issues she had in her class. (A particular kid would bother her )The teachers are young teens and dont fully understand how to work with young kids.They told us to keep her at home for a 3 weeks, and come back.As uncomfortable as that is, we made plans only to find out that they had given her spot away without telling us.Unapologetic and laughed over the phone.Leaving us stranded. If we knew, we would certainly have found another school.🛑 Unprofessional🛑 Disrespectful

My daughter loves it here and I love it also! I also love that I can check on her and see her throughout the day on the camera. The teachers and management staff are amazing. Clean school! So many fun things they do and even include the little ones!

After having a bad experience with our last preschool/daycare, my wife and I moved our daughter to Kiddie Academy of Coral Springs and we could not be happier. Kiddie Academy simultaneously challenges our daughter while letting her do her own thing (she is very independent), and she loves going there. Cannot recommend enough!

Great atmosphere! Nice staff that always greets you with a smile. My son loves it and has learned a lot more since attending compared with his prior school. The cameras in the class and playground is an added bonus as well. Five stars!

Theres been a few instances that made me withdraw my infant from Kiddie Academy. For one, Im a new mom and very particular when it comes to my son. His first week there, Tadpoles and Watch Me Grow was not set up properly for me to see my child his first day there and get his daily report. Another thing, because hes an infant he was in the Angelfish class where I was told their crib sheets get changed everyday. Me, being the mom that I am bought his own crib sheets in for everyday even though they were provided. Tuesday and Wednesday of his first week, the sheet was not changed as was there two days straight. One wouldnt really notice because the sheets they provide are all white but I had different colors and patterns. To make things worse, my son was 3 months old and in his 3rd week I dropped him off Monday morning in perfect condition, no signs of any sickness. That evening I picked him up, he sounded horrible and even looked as well. He was stuffy, congested, runny nose, dry snot and a wet cough. I was not once called to be made aware he was sick nor was I told when I picked him up. I even called during the day to check on him and still wasnt made aware. I had to take him too the hospital where he contracted the RSV virus from there. I understand at their age, theyre prone to get sick, but at least call their parents. I had to take him out the rest of the week and take off work to be there with him as they still wanted to charge me full price for the week. I also thought my son would get accustomed to his caregivers but every time I came, there was new people there. I also saw one of them, who was new, raise their voice. Even with cameras in place, cant be fully trusted. I watched one day while at work and saw my son up and moving around after a nap and they just tried to put him right back to sleep instead of having him interact and do something. They charge $258 a week for nothing.

My daughter has been going there for 2 years and will be moving on to Kindergarten in a few weeks. The Kiddie Academy of Coral Springs is an exceptional school! It is clean with well educated and friendly staff. I will truly miss taking her there! I would recommend this school to all parents looking for a safe place for their children to learn and play.

I had my child here for about a year in 2013 and i began to notice odd things occurring with him that when i did my homework realized my son may and i used the word may be under some type of abuse. He became fearful and curl on his stomach when i would change his diaper, he would stand in a corner afraid for no reason, he became extremely violent everyday. His normal happy child self was gone and replaced by a always tired non happy child. All signs of some sort of abuse or depression. When i would pick up my child i would notice he was not being watched and more a less left to himself or locked in there diaper changing room. All of my complaints fell on deaf ears as management did nothing, and when they did i would see that my complaints were reflected on my child in a negative way.I tested the theory of not having him in this school for about 1 month and my child returned to his normal behavior.Later i met former employees validate my fear that my suspicions were true. I am not the type of person to want to destroy a business but when it comes to children...no way! no child should be scared or fearful or abused at a daycare system. Parents stay away and review other options.

Kiddie Academy is an awesome place for children. The teachers and associates are caring and loving to all the children. Learning is important so the kids are kept busy and motivated with different learning task and projects. The Owner & Director Natalie is on point she makes sure the teachers & kids have everything they need to succeed. My experience Kiddie Academy has been nothing but amazing!! Happy child....Happy mommy!!

I love the real-life curriculum and activities that the classes do each and every day. I also feel so comfortable with all of the staff. The family-like environment makes me feel happy leaving my children in their care.

Both of my girls have attended Kiddie Academy of Coral Springs. They have great teachers who really care and my girls enjoyed being in their company. If I am running late they would save breakfast for the girls, if something is wrong I would get a phone call and getting stickers and hugs were expected at the end of the day which the girls enjoyed. I once had an incident which I spoke to the Director about and she was quick to address it. The watchmegrow app is an extra plus for me as I could watch them anytime...just to see what they were up to. I definitely recommend this school!

Personally, Kiddie Academy of Coral Springs is a wonderful place for my son to start his education. This is my sons first year and he has enjoyed every minute. Alex loves his classmates and his teachers Mrs. Maria & Mrs. Kamisha. The school has a great program structure. The teachers take the time to build connections with students and create a safe learning environment. I am very happy with the program. The owners are wonderful and caring. My sons teacher, Mrs.Maria, is an experienced and fantastic teacher. She shares her love for learning with the kids, teaching them that learning is a journey and an exiting adventure

I cannot say enough good things about this daycare. We moved from West Palm Beach in June of last year from a daycare we loved up there. That day care did not even come close to how great Kiddie Academy has been. The teachers are genuinely invested in the well being of the students. All the teachers know all the students names. Everyone is friendly and respectful and I felt welcome every time I was picking up or dropping off my son. The facility is very clean and organized and they do Christmas programs and date nights and other fun things. My fiancé and I tell everyone how much we love Kiddie Academy and what a great day care it is. Our son has learned so much since starting at Kiddie Academy and we are truly heart broken to have to take him out of the school as we relocate. Best money we have ever spent! Don’t look anywhere else for child care, this is the best place for your child to be!

I absolutely love this school. My son has been here since he turned 1, he is now going on 3. My son in particular has a lot of separation anxiety, and the school and teachers have put in so much effort to make him as comfortable as possible. Everyone is so kind and caring for all the students. My son is always coming home singing new songs, saying new words and phrases! And he talks about his teachers and friends when he is home with me. He loves attending the Kiddie Academy as much as I love sending him here. I highly recommend this center!

I have visited other daycare facilities just to compare and theres no comparison. My now 7 yr old child attended from 1 yr old all the way to VPK and my now 18 month old has been with Kiddie Academy since he was 6 months. The majority of the teachers that were there when my 7 yr child attended are still with Kiddie Academy. This school has that family feel, the staff is caring and always available. I cant say enough great things about this school. I can leave my child here and know he is well taken care of while I am at work. Love this school.

The current teacher my daughter is with is so nurturing and caring. (Ms. Denika). It was torture dropping her off for her first time in daycare at 3 yrs old. She has such a way with children it makes you feel beyond comfortable knowing your child is in such good hands. Within the first week she was excited to go to school and show Ms. Denika everything, Ms. Brandy (Director) runs the school flawlessly. If there is anything going on with my child, I am notified immediately. There are wonderful programs and events always offered at the school. Ms. Brandy greets every single person that walks in the door and truly makes everyone feel like family. She knows every single child that walks in and out the school without question (not at schools are like this). She is one the best directors I have seen in a school. She is the only reason I decided to come back to KA with my second child almost 3 years after my son graduated and it was the best decision!

If you want your child to learn then bring him to this school. Also, I love that they offer watchmegrow cam so I can see my son anytime. Furthermore, my three year old is learning so much. He loves this school and so do I. My other son completed VPK here and was well prepared for Kindergarten. He learned to read, write, and solve math problems. The teachers and staff are caring and provide a fun and safe environment.

Being new to South Florida, we were not sure where to start looking for a pre-kindergarten for our son. After our search of over ten schools, we stumbled upon Kiddie Academy of Coral Springs! The minute we walked in the door we knew this was the place! Extremely clean, family owned, and modern. Once our son began, we quickly realized how great the teachers were with such a hands on experience that has allowed our son to excel! As an added bonus, they have continual webcam access, daily routine/learning reports as well as pictures updated daily via a secure app! We definitely recommend Kiddie Academy!

When my son started at this school it was great! I love the 2 teacher he had but all the sudden when he switched to the 3year old class it was a total changed. All the sudden my child was deemed as a problem child. The teacher in this class couldnt control him or the other kids. My husband and myself have walk in many of times seeing her class out of control. Two other moms I knew told me this same teacher couldnt handle their kid either and their child have went on to other schools and is doing well. I was actually going to remove my child before now and I wish I did and regret not going with my gut so he wouldnt have became the scapegoat. My child was potty trained but the teacher said Natalie the director who I will talk about in a minute said he wasnt ready. In fact he was actively going to the bathroom at home with no pull-ups. This teacher was very frustrated with my child which I can tell when I pick him up. Teacher also admit to me that she was also frustrated because she was alone with all these kids and that she had a new aide who was still learning. But what really prompted me to write this review and to give it one star was the unprofessionalism of the director Natalie. She called me told me she doesnt know where to start my son pushed over a book case and showed no remorse let me remind you hes only 3 years old. I did talked to my son about why he doesnt push over bookcases but I know my child and he doesnt do or show anger like that so why is he doing it in this class all the sudden. The director also told me I need to have his anger issues evaluated. Which I told my son pediatrician and she laughed knowing my son his pediatrician knows he doesnt have issues and said the same thing I said about the director, how dare she? I asked the director how did they discipline him. This is the kicker, She said she took him in her office and that she just watched him pick his nose and licked boogers. How dare you and how unprofessional. I was at a lost that the director of the school for little children would say that. You are now letting me know you are disgused with my child. Hes 3 year old. I remind you. So after she said that I knew I was withdrawing him from the school. When I told her that I was withdrawing him she was quick to say ok which is an indication that she didnt want my child there anyway. What hurt me the most is when I picked up my child after hearing how she talked about him my child was still saying hi and bye even to her. He dont understand what he did so how could he have remorse. It has to be explained that pushing a bookcase is wrong. He doesnt show those behaviors at home so you should look to the environment hes in to make him react that way. He didnt deserve to be judged like that especially as a 3 year old. The fact of the matter as parents we work so we can provide a better life for our children and we pay for our children to be in daycare and trust that he or she will be taken care of and taught right and wrong. As parents we rely on your support we dont expect you leave our child hanging. Most of our kids are in your care 5 out of the 7 days of the week. So if you dont want the deal with or correct behaviorial issues of all kids or try to help potty train then this might not be the profession for you. Honestly if your teacher was watching and had better control of her class that shouldnt have ever happened. Instead you chose to put all the blame on a 3 year old. I have had good experience with the other teachers and Ms Jo. But overall cant have my child at a school with a director who talks about people children like this.
