Kiddie Academy of Locust Point

I have sent two children to Kiddie Academy of Locust Point starting at 4 months of age and had nothing but positive experiences. The staff have been great and my kids love attending the daycare, they don't want to leave at the end of the day. The kids have made many friends at daycare and they always talk about their teachers who they love. I would highly recommend Kiddie Academy of Locust Point.

I had multiple awful experiences when I had my son enrolled this year. I put my child on a waitlist for a new school within the first month of enrollment here, and I hated that he had to be there for 4 months waiting to get out. Not only was childcare questionable here watching on cameras, no one ever answers phones when you need them or follow up with concerns. I paid way too much money here for how awful the experience was. I pay more now but I feel such relief to have my son in a better school. I could go in detail, but I would be writing an entire novel with the list of concerns. To sum up, enroll your children elsewhere.

Okay, it's a long one, but there aren't many other decisions that are more weighted than where to send your child for their care! Two years ago I visited over 10 locations looking for care for our at the time 17 month old. I originally chose Kiddie Academy mainly because of the ability to view my son throughout the day via their camera system, but once he began attending KALP (Kiddie Academy Locust Point) I realized that I was getting so much more than "just" the security of watching him during the day. Nimita and her staff have consistently gone above and beyond, and their communication with us parents has always been very prompt and extensive. During his two years at KALP our son learned so much! One day he began rattling off colors and numbers in Spanish that I had no idea he knew! As expected, and as you will find everywhere, some teachers have been better than others, but overall we truly felt as if the teachers cared about his well-being. They were very open to our suggestions and even had some of their own for ensuring that our son was comfortable and had the best possible experience. Especially in the past year during the pandemic when KALP became a care center for essential personnel which my husband and I both are! We felt extremely comfortable with the distancing, mask wearing, sanitization and health screening measures that Nimita put in place. At one time I noticed on the camera that one teacher was wearing her mask below her nose. I made mention of this to Nimita and she addressed it straight away and since then all of the teachers appear to be in compliance. As a result, since the beginning of the pandemic there have been very few interruptions in KALP classes as a result of teacher/child infections. If you are looking for a child care center highly recommend Kiddie Academy at Locust Point, and while I am excited for our little guy to join his elementary aged big brother's pre-school program so that we can have both boys at the same location, it is definitely bittersweet as we have truly enjoyed the time that we spent at KALP! Thank you so much Ms Nimita, Ms Jasmin, Ms Lindsey and all of the teachers & staff! I hope that you know how much your kindness, patience, cooperation, and understanding has meant to us these past few years! We wish you all only the very best!

I think it's important to share how much we love and appreciate the staff at the Kiddie Academy. We recently moved to the area and had no idea how difficult it was going to be to find the right care for our daughter. I called the Kiddie Academy and they had an open spot, woo hoo! They made the enrollment process easy and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. Our daughter has made friends and the teachers consistently update us on her progress. We are lucky to be part of the Kiddie Academy family.

Outstanding center with the most professional, responsive and nurturing staff. The center is clean, safe, reliable and provides the most constructive environment for kids to learn, play and evolve. Hats off to Ms Nimita Sheth for so skillfully and meticulously managing this center during this complex pandemic; as well as to the staff and teachers, Ms Lindsay, Ms Jasmine, Ms Nika and Mr John for giving our son the best care and learning possible! Our son loves his Kiddie Academy family! My wife and I are very sad to relocate and have our son switch daycares. This place is truly a gem, and my wife and I are forever indebted for their phenomenal care.
