Bringing our youngest to CKA when his brother started elementary school added an hour of commute to our pickup and drop off routines, but it was well worth it to FINALLY not be concerned for my child’s wellbeing, safety, or development. My children never had the kind of consistency with staff that we saw at CKA. It was night and day watching my child form secure attachments to staff that he had for his entire time at the center, not just with the lead teachers, but the aides as well. Staff continue to stay at CKA because they are supported and respected by management, the directors, and the parents. CKA is working closely with Kids Count on Us and ISAIAH to advocate for changes that improve quality of care for families, wellbeing for staff, and do not unnecessarily raise the cost of childcare.
My oldest was always welcome to visit with the kiddos at pickup, and we had many celebrations: trunk or treat, a leprechaun hunt, holiday concert, muffins with moms (Mother’s day, where I enjoyed “Cook Katie’s” baked goods – YUM), and much more!
