Kid Kountry Child Development Center

Its not great for a working parent or a child who may have individual needs. It's not open 6 to 6. I work until 530 and arrive 545 to 550. Told I will be charged for this. Felt that instead of being able to discuss this with them they avoided eye contact the next day, had the 30 day withdrawal notice already pulled, and sat at the desk and had a very public seemingly confrontational experience with me, which is hard as a parent trying to figure out work with childs needs. If your child has regular therapies you have to call every day or they will take the spot even though you're full time. You cannot pick up and return. The children do not advance to another room until potty trained. When asked why they were going through so many pull ups a teacher told me he hadn't been potty training as he doesn't ask to pee ( he has a speech delay). The only communication out is the sole check in computer in which there is often a line of parents behind you waiting for you to finish. There doesn't seem to be any loop of communication in and often even at pick up when asked about my child's day the teacher says they do not know, they were only there a few hours. For several weeks at a time all the kids would do projects and my son would have none. When asking why (not accusing) nobody knew and many times was told it was drying but I'd never see it. Was told they cannot force him- young children are learning and I just expected more encouragement some teaching for him.

My kid went to kid Country for about 2 years and we loved it! The staff was always friendly and my son quickly adjusted to the new environment and grew to love going to daycare/preschool. Any concerns were promptly addressed and I felt like the staff truly cared about my son. I would definitely recommend this facility to anyone looking for childcare or preschool!

We moved to Billings over the summer and needed to enroll our children in daycare quickly. From the initial tour to enrollment, the Kid Kountry Team made the process easy/painless. We have a three- and five-year-old who LOVE it. The Director Team is always welcoming, greeting all of the kids (and parents!) by name. The teachers have been fantastic, engaging the kids in fun learning activities and caring about their wellbeing. My son is now in Kindergarten and he gets picked up by Kid Kountry every day after school. Most days, he thinks I pick him up too early as he is having a blast coloring/crafting or playing on their playground.

Management micromanages each other, they pnlt give a .25 cent raise every year, they have ants, there is constant bickering from all ends of the workers. Kids get mainly frozen (yes served frozen) fruit for lunches, if the kids has a accident and doesn't have extra cloths, they'll stay in those cloths till someone comes with cloths or to get the kid. Just think if you really want that, last time that happened the child waited almost three hours, she no longer goes there and I don't blame the mom. Especially since they have extra cloths they could have put her in. Child nepotism happens constantly with management's children, so of you treat their kids equal get prepared to get in trouble. Sadly there is only five good workers and sadly those five can't run the entire building themselves.

I am happy with my son in this daycare. They also offer a very amazing summer program which makes it nice to transfer from the school year to summer. The staff is kind and respectful and I appreciate all they do for the kids. My son has expressed he is happy being here and has met some really great friends.
