Kids' Work Chicago Riverview

Joining Kids’ Work has been one of the best decisions for our family! The entire staff is very welcoming, professional, and they genuinely care about the kids by going above and beyond. It’s clear the teachers and staff love what they do. Our son has built strong relationships with his teachers Ms. Tuana, Ms. Jessica and Ms. Jennifer, who have been absolutely wonderful, and it’s clear he is learning new skills every day. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to encourage creativity, curiosity, and social development. We also love the frequent updates and photos—they give us so much peace of mind. We truly couldn’t ask for a better daycare experience!

We had the incredibly good fortune to find Kids Work at a time when we so desperately needed childcare support. Within just a few minutes of walking into the building for the tour, we knew it would be a great fit! The facilities are clean, the staff is warm and organized, and the teachers are incredibly caring. We absolutely adored Ms. Tuana, Ms. Jessica, and Ms. Jennifer. We would recommend Kids Work to any family in the area in a heartbeat!

We absolutely love Kids’Work! The facility is beautiful and clean with great equipment and interactive classes like Spanish, music, and yoga. My son’s classroom teachers are amazing and treat him like family (shout to Danielle, Marcos, & Max in the California class). They create such fun activities for the kids to learn and grow together. It truly is a special place!

As a pediatric physical therapist who’s had the privilege of working with children at Kids Work for over a year, I can confidently say this is one of the most exceptional early childhood centers I’ve encountered. I’ve worked in three different classrooms during my time here, and every single teacher I’ve partnered with has been stellar—enthusiastic, dedicated, and genuinely curious about child development. They’re always eager to learn about each child’s unique therapy goals and how to support them in the classroom, creating an environment where all kids can truly thrive. Lindsey, the director, is a standout leader. She’s deeply involved and takes the time to personally know each family, staff member, and even visiting therapists like myself. Her commitment to evidence-based practices and collaborative care is clear in every interaction—she regularly checks in to share insights, ask thoughtful questions, and ensure that the center is providing the most supportive and developmentally appropriate environment possible. Kids Work is more than just a childcare center—it’s a community that prioritizes learning, growth, and inclusion at every level. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

We were having a tough time choosing daycare for our 2-year-old, but after talking to other parents at our nearby park, we made an appointment to tour Kids Work. Before the tour was over, we knew this was the right place for us! The facility is wonderful. The curriculum is updated weekly and is designed to keep kids stimulated with new learning experiences. However, the best parts of Kids Work are the staff and teachers! From the first days in class, I could tell Ms. Farai and Ms. Marisa cared about our daughter and wanted to make sure her transition went well, and it only took a couple weeks before I knew they were bonding with her. I loved seeing how they really got to know her and how much my daughter really cared about them. There's so much communication between parents and the teachers, so it would be obvious if they didn't care or didn't really know her. Ms. Farai and Ms. Marisa are the reason my daughter loves to go to school every day, and they are the reason my wife and I are always happy to take her there!
