About the Provider

Description: Kids' Korner Child Development Center, a five-star family-owned preschool, has been successfully operating since 1984 in Kannapolis, North Carolina. The center was first located on Charles Street. When the center began to grow, a new building emerged at its current location on Cook Street in 1998. Then in 2004, we built a 6,000 square foot gymnasium for our before and after school program, Kids Next Door.
