Kiddos Early Learning Center

Beyond blessed to have found Kiddos! We were so nervous about daycare but have found every detail of Kiddos to be amazing! From leadership, teachers, communications, and cleanliness everything is top notch.

You will never regret entrusting Kiddos to love on and teach your babies in your stead ❤️ no school could ever measure up to the time our daughter was blessed to spend at Kiddos!

My older boys do the Kiddos after care program and we love it, so when they announced they were opening the Early Learning Center, we immediately signed up. My littlest has been there from their opening day. We love the dedicated teachers, the environment, the curriculum, and all of the things! We’re so thankful for this center, and you should check them out.

My husband and I have had the most wonderful experience at Kiddos and could not be happier with our choice of daycare for our infant son! We were initially nervous about putting our son in a brand new daycare program (Kiddos opened in January of this year), but after meeting with the owner and director, Lara Cornett and Isabel Quillin, and learning about the Kiddos After School program that Lara also started and runs at several Buckhead elementary schools, it was clear our son would be in great hands. That has proven true! At the beginning, we joined waitlists at several other programs in the area just in case Kiddos didn't work out, and every single time a space has opened up elsewhere we have turned it down because we are so happy where we are. What we love about the program: - Leadership: Lara is incredibly experienced, thoughtful, and transparent. In our very first meeting before we enrolled, she communicated her core values and her vision for the program. The vision has come to fruition just as described, and we have seen her consistently demonstrate strong values time and time again -- especially quality, continuous improvement, supporting teachers, and parent engagement. Isabel is the day-to-day Program Director, and she has done a fantastic job of orchestrating everything! - Teachers & Staff: Every single teacher and staff member that has cared for our son have been wonderful. They are always smiling, cheerful, and communicative. We get regular updates throughout the day and periodic progress reports on our son's learning & development, and it's clear that our son is loved. There is low teacher turnover, so our son has had the same teachers since the beginning and he ADORES them -- gives them the biggest smile every morning when he sees them and immediately reaches out to them for a hug! - Curriculum: We started daycare when our son was 3 months old, and I was thrilled to see they have a curriculum even in the infant class! They do all kinds of things -- art projects, story time, nature walks, science activities, social time, free play, physical development, and more. They also do a great job at helping him meet his development milestones, which was one of my biggest fears with putting an infant in daycare. As a first time parent, I don't always know what is "normal" and how best to teach certain skills, but the teachers are trained & experienced and have been so helpful in this area -- sometimes it feels like they're teaching me, too! - Community: Lara and Isabel have gone to great lengths to make Kiddos feel like a tight knit community and not just a daycare facility. For example, when several parents expressed an interest in learning CPR, Lara brought in a CPR trainer and held a class over breakfast! We've also had "Movement & Muffins with Moms" (a yoga class), did a meal train for a teacher who had a death in the family, weekly "Mystery Readers" (parents dropping in for story time), and even more. Everyone knows our names & our son's name, and it's such a friendly environment and close community. - Engagement: Kiddos uses an app for parents to see what their child is up to throughout the day and to communicate with the teachers & staff. It is so fun to see photos of our son doing various activities, and it's been very helpful to know his schedule -- what time he is eating, napping, and having wet and/or dirty diaper changes. Beyond the day-to-day communication, Lara and Isabel send regular newsletters and occasional surveys to solicit input and feedback. Long story short -- We have entrusted Kiddos with caring for and nurturing the most important person in our life -- our son -- and our trust has been well-placed.

We have been at Kiddos since their first open day, and it has been wonderful! Our child is excited everyday when we walk in, the teachers are so kind and truly care for the kids, and the staff is responsive and easy to reach!
