My son has been in the infant room for about eight months now, and I am very happy I chose this daycare center! Even in the infant room, they are getting the kids outside as much as possible and their outdoor spaces for the different age levels are very large with lots of greenery which was a big selling point. The infant staff has remained relatively consistent since we’ve started, which makes it so much easier as my son is familiar with his teachers and has built bonds with them. Especially the main infant teacher Ravay, she is a favorite of his for sure!

We absolutely love Hannah, Jovita, and Sonya. They are amazing at keeping us in the loop with great communication. We are so impressed with the progress our son has made here—he’s already naming all his colors and counting from 1 to 10 entirely on his own! It has been so much fun to watch him grow, and it’s incredibly sweet that he’s built friendships here that date all the way back to his infant room days. Another huge plus for us is how the daycare includes families in special holiday celebrations like Thanksgiving and Valentine’s Day. Plus, they make summers an absolute blast with bounce houses and water days!

Our toddler has attended CKA for 2 years and now our almost 1 year old son attends too! We’ve been very happy with the communication of daily activities and updates they provide. My daughter looks forward to going to see her friends and the teachers and it amazes me how her learning and language skills have flourished in her time there! Definitely recommend!
— AnnMarie G.
We just appreciate you all very much — you make an impact on our sweet little boy every day and you’re our village (we don’t have family in town that helps with our son’s care), so to know we can rely on you all as our support system and to know you all care about him means more to us than we could ever say. Thank you!
— Katie
Our family had a wonderful experience with Creative Kids. Our youngest daughter has been enrolled with the center for the last 4 years and I could not ask for better care of my child. The staff are so kind and patient and take the time to get to know each individual child. The facility is always clean and welcoming, creating a safe and nurturing environment for children to learn and play.
— Terren N.
My daughter’s time at CKA was absolutely amazing. The teachers took time to recognize the needs and care that my daughter needed and worked with us to be very communicative. She was always excited to go to school, and see her friends and teachers! We were blessed to have experienced 2 years of my daughter’s very early life with CKA. We will always remember the impact that the whole team at CKA has made in our girl’s life!
