As a first time mother it was difficult for me to have to return to work after being home with Emma. I was anxious about the prospect of putting Emma in daycare. However, any anxieties I had about leaving Emma in someone else's care quickly dissipated upon my first visit to Kidzone. Everyone was so friendly and Emma wanted to get down and play with the other children when we toured the infant/toddler room. I was glad to hear that the infant class has a 4:1 ratio and that the infants offered a variety of activities including swings, exersaucers, and table time. Being a registered nurse I am constantly worried about germs. I was very impressed to see how clean the infant/ toddler room was kept and was informed that the toys and linens are cleaned daily. My husband is a teacher and we were impressed to see that as early as two years old Emma will begin to learn computer skills.

Emma has been at Kidzone for four months now and they exceed our expectations every day. The caregivers are so wonderful and caring. I honestly feel as though they care for Emma as if she were their own child. One day I called to ask a question and I heard one of the caregivers refer to Emma as " My Emma". It made me feel good to know that they feel that close to her. We can also see that Emma feels just as close with them. Her caregivers have reported to us that Emma has been known to follow them around the room. My husband reports to me that Emma always smiles and waves good-bye to her caregivers when he picks her up. We look forward to receiving her "daily reports" that fills us in on her daily routine including what she eats, when she naps, her mood and interaction with others, and whether any of her supplies are running low. We were thrilled at Thanksgiving to receive a card from Emma that she had made for us. At Christmas she made a beautiful ornament and stocking for our tree that will bring back memories of her first Christmas for years to come. It is great to see that she gets to do fun and stimulating activities even at such a young age!

My husband and I are so happy that we found Kidzone. It has made a difficult transition in our live so much easier. We recommend Kidzone to anyone who is looking for quality childcare as well as a great place to begin your child's educational foundation! Thank you Kidzone!
