Dont bring your kids to this school or to their summer camp program. Its expensive for nothing. All the kids do is sit around watching movies ALL day, no playing outside, no jumping around, basically nothing a kid should be doing is allowed there. They cant even stand up from their seats and go talk to their friends in the summer camp, they have to be sitting down all day, with their eyes glued to the screen (Im talking about the summer camp here). The teachers, which are all young and inexperienced college students, scream at them all day because the kids are restless (and of course theyre restless, you cant expect a kid to be still all day, especially during summer vacation). The teachers can be said to be patient, but theyre not loving, and only care about their paycheck. Poor children, they dont play any games in all day, its really heart breaking to see them there, stuck in a classroom until their parents arrive, when they just got out of a classroom and now will return to a classroom when school starts.If you love your kids and dont want to make them miserable, dont bring them here. It wont be fair.

My daughter has been at Kidworks USA since she was 3. Now she is in 1st grade & part of the Kidworks USA STEM Academy elementary school.When I first toured the school, I was amazed with every aspect of it. When I saw how well-educated the children were, I wanted them to be her friends. When I saw how kind the teachers were, I wanted them to be part of her life.The only problem was that my daughter was a little firecracker. I worried she would be too much for them to handle. I was wrong. The amount of patience, dedication, & love every single one of the teachers & staff members demonstrated was beyond overwhelming.To this day, every time she enters those doors, I can see how loved & welcomed she feels...as a parent, I dont think theres a better feeling than that.

Well how do I start, this place is very expensive it also need kids to use more technology to help the kids learn more. Students also need to have more activities such as board games and more. The food is great but they need a bigger amount my child usually comes very hungry.Also the only fun place that my kid liked is now getting turned into a kindergarten classroom I understand it’s for the kids but what about the others.Oh and the computers are fun but they need to add more of them for everyone can play or learn at the same time, we all need to be treated equally.

Hello, my name is Bryan Perez and I am an alumni Kidworks USA student . I was at Kidworks USA , the moment I turned 2 years old all through 8th grade in Afterschool, which resulted in being there over 12 years. I came across the most important people who have continued to play a role in my life. My preschool friends are my current best friends , and I would not want it any other way. But most importantly the teachers , counselors, and staff have all treated me like family and continue to do so when I go and visit. The teachers take the time to do a job that isn’t easy and they do it with joy. They teach you more lessons that what the curriculum requires them. I was not a kid that felt forced to go to school, in fact I was very happy to attend Kidworks USA. The school as a whole is invested in you and supports you through everything. The school allowed me to learn, grow, discover, and made me who I am today. Mr.Bill , the pirate is always brainstorming , thinking , planning and putting in to action the best future for our all his younger pirates. He is dedicated , hard working and everyone loves and cares for him. Kidworks isn’t just another big school, it is a safe place, it feels like home and it always will be.

Kidworks is no forgotten memory to me. Id been there for most of my life (considering Im only 17) and I cannot remember a single moment where I didnt enjoy myself there. It was a place where I met some of my best friends and where Ive learned plenty of lifes lessons. But there is one thing that Ill never forget about being at Kidworks and that is its like being with family. They took me on awesome adventures (some people call them field trips) and I really had fun and connected with others through learning new things and sharing experiences I never thought I would have with my friends. Ill never forget the one field trip where I went to Jungle Island and all my friends were excited to see everything; the animals and the cool water sports they have there, I had forgotten my clothes to go into the water so when all my friends went to go play in the water park I was left alone. Yet the counselor helped me through it and eventually all my friends came back to sit with me to keep me company since I couldnt go with them. They gave away their own free time just to make sure I didnt miss out. This is what Kidworks is, its making bonds and never forgetting whats important. But Ill try to be blunt and put Kidworks into one word. Memorable. - From Kidworks alumni Richard

Hi parents! Youre probably scrolling through these reviews to see whether or not you should enroll your child here. I know I would do the same, how could I not? Its important to know what kind of facility youre going to place your child in. I went to Kidworks for eleven years. I joined when I was 4 years old and left when I didnt meet the age requirements anymore (when I turned 15). The teachers and staff at Kidworks were like my second family. Those teachers care and love their students. They healed my wounds when I tripped and scratched by knee, or consolidated me on manners where I was being bullied by a girl in my middle school. I learned and grew in this facility, and my values and perspectives on life derive mostly from my family, but from my teachers at Kidworks too. I know parents might have different standpoints on faculty and price and its understandable why, but Im speaking as a student of Kidworks USA. Mothers, fathers, grandparents, I can say with almost complete certainty, that your child will grow here, learn here, and love here.

I have been a kidworks kid for about 12 years I started at the age of two and I am now starting high school in august 2020. This place has been like a second home to me. All the staff is always helpful and kind. The after school teachers are amazing. Shoutout to Ms. Gwen, Mrs.Camila, Mrs. Karina, Ms. Lisset, Ms.Ann, Mr. John, Ms. Alexandra, and Ms. Liz they all made my last year kidworks the best. Mrs.Q is the best after care director she is kind and helpful. I will come visit soon when I’m in high school since this is my second home. I would highly recommend this place. It is extremely safe. They are open on the days we don’t have school which is good for parents that work. They have summer camp, after care, child care, and an elementary school. They are very reasonable with their prices. Ms. Kimberly in the front desk is very professional. She is also very kind and welcoming. The busses are clean and safe. They pick up the kids from school on time. They make sure to pick up every kid. I experienced great service first hand. Also the food is amazing. The cooks have experience. They are home prepped meals. If your looking for somewhere to send your child take them here. I don’t meet the grade requirements no more since it’s only for k-8th grade for after care. So until next time.

Not sure where to begin! So many disappointments! Starting with Staff, they need a huge attitude adjustment, also it wouldBe nice if they had security on site, which they don’t! The kids are always allOver the place and the teachers seem frustrated. Sadly the kids aren’t really rewarded, academically they need to have a little more encouragement and more positive attitude towards the littleOnes! Awards would be nice, Food is great, and their effort seems to be top notch but the vibe and the atmosphere isn’t really friendly! If you want your child to be treated with attitude and no connection with the teachers than thisIs the place for you!!!!

I would absolutely NOT recommend this “school”.After 4 years of being a part of their “community” I am EXTREMELY shocked and disappointed at the treatment I’ve just received from the staff and overall from the OWNER himself. The owner is the most unprofessional, rude and frankly disrespectful person I have ever spoken to IN MY LIFE! No matter how much money you have Mr. Bill, you Sir are UNFIT to run a “school”.As a parent your concerns mean NOTHING. After voicing my concerns to the owner himself, his response was “are you done?” Then he went on to ridicule my concerns and throw in my face how much money he spends at the “school”.My 6 year old son was on your watch, riding your $25,000 busses and for 1 hour, no one at the school could tell me if my son had been picked up from his elementary school, or if he was on the side of the road waiting for one of the new shiny busses to arrive. 1 hour of not knowing where your child is at, is NEVER EVER acceptable.So as you suggested I am taking my kid elsewhere and if you are currently enrolled or thinking of enrolling I hope this review makes your stomach turn too. And since there is no one above you Mr. Bill that’ll listen or give validity to my concerns, I will publicly share them in as many outlets as possible.

Weve experienced a few changes in the almost 2 years my daughters been there. I think for the price, security entrance, food, stand alone building, hours, etc its been great and reasons why I chose this place. The staff and teachers are very caring, although most dont speak English well, but my daughter was taught in both languages which I appreciate since we dont speak spanish much at home. I did end up putting her in a different summer camp to save some extra $. Now that shes going to kindergarten I think shes been well prepared.I also like their stem program, they learn a lot while having fun.I am not a fan of the open 2 stall bathroom in the classrooms, since its easy for the boys to accidentally see the girls (vice versa).I do wish most of the teachers had more of an upbeat energy but none-the-less theyre caring and I felt my daughter was treated w love and safe.I also like the open communication we have with calling and emailing the school.Its pretty cool that theyve been able to expand to rest of the building and accommodate to 5th grade.I dont regret choosing kidworks to care and teach my princess!

Horrible staff! This place is also extremely over priced and they do not teach the children (Especially English) How can they teach children when everyone who is employed there needs Speech Therapy!

We’ve had such a negative experience, not so much the school which I would say is nice. When we renewed the tuition we did not receive a package that needed to be filled, we paid the registration, that was a few weeks ago, on Monday when my wife goes to pick up the kid she is told it needed to be filled and nothing else no warning, on Wed my son does not go to school, on Thursday when I am going to drop off the kid I m told I can’t leave him until this is filled, mind you it takes at least 20 min, front desk tells me to fill it and bring it later, about 30 min latter I get a call to pick up the kid, we couldn’t do it at the time, so when I go to get him, they handle me his stuff throwing him out like a garbage bag, the principal then talks to me and we decided to leave him, next day when I go to drop him off I see that the picture from his tray and name had been remove. Now what kind of heartless cold human couldn’t even wait a day to see if things could be resolved to do this. In my opinion they don’t care about the kids (some do and are nice) but management does not care is a cold environment where your child is just a number, My kid is 3 years old it really hurt me to see him be disposed like he was a garbage bag. Now he was never threaded poorly or bad or hurt in any way, but at the end it shows little care for the kid or the parent who has him there because they have things to do. Where we had my other son the teacher literary cried the day he left, we put the other one here because the other one was too out of the way, my mistake. I will drive more but put my child where they really care.

Our daughter was enrolled here for about a year. As parents we were satisfied with enough things up until this new school year.First, some of the teachers dont speak english (fine, we figured it was best for our daughter to hear more spanish out of her home).Second, the bathrooms are shared by boys and girls at the same time in, adjacent stalls, without doors, in front of a large mirror (I found my daughter in the bathroom trying to pee with a lil boy standing there with his wiwi in hand trying to pee). And no teacher at the door watching, lady didnt even know they were in the bathroom. How can a parent walk into a bathroom and be able to see anothers child naked and why is there a boy in the bathroom with a girl at the same time???Third, Mr Bill (the annoying owner) thinks its a great idea to have parents sign away the rights to your childs image so that they can take pictures and videos whenever they want without any further notice to the parents in order to send, upload, post, who knows what else, to a Public YouTube, Facebook and twitter account. He says that its for the parents to see what your children are doing....Yeah Rite! This is purely for his benefit in social media. Its Public, for anyone to see! If its for the parents it would be Private like other centers do. And if you choose Not to release the rights, they want to charge you $50 a month for the non-service....mind you, this is after they have increased the tuition for what only seems to be to subsidize this new employee in charge of AudioVideo productions that Mr. Bill ranted about at the open house. This is absurd and plain out disrespectful to the parents and kids attending. If they want to shoot a video to promote the school, great! Ask the parents for the childs participation and if the parents agree, great. Schedule your shoot and plan accordingly but if for whatever the reason the parents say No, you should not punish them for it. Regardless of all this we saw how much our 4yr old wanted to stay in the same class so we decided to pay the extra $50. Well, they decided to kick her out of the school 3 hours after accepting her on the first day of class. They even threatened to call protective services on us if we didnt go pick her up immediately because mom asked if they could at least keep her the rest of the day.We as parents are not comfortable with someone having free reign on taking pictures and video whenever they want without further notice to us and using them for whatever they choose without our consent. And if you have read this and are considering this place I would keep going over the bridge to Childrens Kingdom Enrichment Center. They understand that the parents are the reason the children attend their school and they treat you with that respect.Welcome to social media Mr. Bill

Our daughter Kaylee Cajas has been with this program since 5 weeks old, she is now 4 years old. We are so happy with the staff, and teachers. She has learned more then we thought she would of by now. That said we recommened Kidsworks USA to all our close family and friends. Now we have been advised that she will be able to be in Kindergarden as well, we give Kidsworks USA 5 and half stars.....
