My 10 year old son went here for summer camp. My son didnt like going because the other kids were too rambunctious for him. Hes very quiet and it overwhelmed him. He was sometimes bullied by them, but this was handled by staff there. He also disliked when they were punished as a group, though he wasnt misbehaving (the counselors corroborated this.) However, he was often rewarded for his behavior with verbal praise and sometimes lollipops, which we both appreciated.Aside from the kids in attendance, we had no problems. Everyone I encountered was cheerful and welcoming. Its reasonably priced, and the owner is very kind and understanding when it comes to paying. They do fun trips, and daytime activities are a great mix between educational, exercise, and fun.Maybe my son just got unlucky with his peers, but we wont be going back because he was miserable.

I have nothing but good things to say about Planet Kids. The owners & the staff are personable, knowledgeable & patient. The center is clean & well-maintained. My daughter has been in their care for almost a year & a half. She absolutely loves everyone there. The teachers are all absolutely amazing. My daughter can be a handful at times, but her teachers have so much patience & are very caring. It is like your child is a part of their own families. I highly recommend it.

I have a 2 year old & a 4 year old and I am one of those Moms. It was a difficult decision to pick a child care center & I couldnt be happier. The administration is always so patient with me & the teachers are so nurturing & loving to my children. My kids look forward to & love coming everyday. The center is always clean , warm & welcoming. I wouldnt send my kids anywhere else. We are all so happy here !

My granddaughter has been there since 2012 when she was 3 months old and will graduate from pre k this summer. She loves going to school and loves her teachers. She will be going to after care there next fall when shes in kindergarten. Very safe center and very experienced management. Highly recommend!

After. Searching long and hard. For several weeks. And going to over 12 different centers. I was. Feeling drained. Depressed. Anxious. And. Actually defeated. Until I walked into the doors of planet kids. I have a 2 1/2 year old son. Who was born 3 months early? And spent 3 months in the necu. 6 weeks of the neque. Not knowing if he was going to survive. I was in the ICU. I didnt get to hold him. Until he was a month and a half. I was told he would never walk. He would never talk. He would never do anything that an average quote-unquote child would do. He went to every specialist as soon as he got out of the neque. Because all he would do was vomit. And he wouldnt sleep. He was born under £2.00. But he always fought. He had two surgeries by the time he was a month old. We went through early interventions because by a year old he couldnt sit up. He couldnt roll. And he caught on so quick. And by. 14 months old. He was running. Then we got a little bit nervous. Because he wouldnt eat solid foods and he was almost too. He had to get his 3rd surgery. He also couldnt speak. After that surgery, he started eating solid foods at 2 years old. Once he was too. We were told by the early interventions again who came for speech therapy. And behavior therapy. And physical therapy. And also occupational therapy. Etc. Etc. That he should be around kids. Even though I didnt have the money. And my husband at the time was working full time. We searched everywhere. And I didnt like the fact that. Out of the 12 places I went to either. The staff did not want to be there. The security was horrible. Or there was absolutely no learning. In place or. There are cameras in the room. Which give access to anyone. Or. It just wasnt a right fit. And I know maybe I was asking for too much, but I wanted everything and I wasnt going to settle. Then I walk through those doors feeling defeated. My son hadnt spoken mind you and he was 2 years old. He started with planet kids. Almost 7 months ago. Now. Begin finally say Mommy Daddy. He can say forward sentences. He can dress himself. He considered a table. He can use a fork and spoon. He can understand. The staff tells me. Exactly how his day is gone. Hes always clean. Hes always happy. They call me if minor things happen. Just to let me know. Theyre always so great with the children. I can come in anytime I please. To Pekin. Without anyone stopping me. Anne. The beauty of it is they dont do it for a paycheck. They do it because they love to do it and the owner. Doesnt have to do this. Financially. But he wants to. And. The gift they have given me. I cant even express my gratitude. When he 1st called me Mommy 3 months ago? I fell to my knees and thanked God. I came to the school and started crying and I thanked everyone. Because they never thought I would hear my son. Call me Mommy. And I just thank them every day for everything. Everything they do. They work with me on every level. They are my family. Anything I need. Even when I was dealing with my separation. And I had an order of protection. They kept it discreet. And they made sure my son was safe. The other children were safe. And. They made sure they had all of the paperwork from the courts. And everything went smoothly. Theres nothing they cant do I swear these people are amazing. I wish every child. Could go there and every mother single mother. Not single mother single father families knew about this place because. Its such a wonderful place. And you feel so safe when youre at work or when youre at home, or if youre dealing with the surgery. Or. If youre dealing with other things you know your child is always, always safe and learning and happy and fed and changed and clean. & smiling. if there are things that you want to tweak or change, theyre happy to do it. And theyre happy to tell you. What works with your child and what doesnt? So you can know and they can also be the eyes in the ears for you when youre not there. They are incredible. They are my Angels. Miss Alice. miss Lisa, Miss Gloria & Miss Danielle especially

They are the most helpful courtious staff around,. For a picky eater my kid will eat the food they cook and loves it. She learned so much that she was ahead in pre k.
