About the Provider

Description: This program is designed to provide the opportunities for children to build self esteem, self confidence, and positive relationships. Our goal is to provide all of the children in our care with a clean, safe, comfortable, loving environment where they can play and learn. Our approach to teaching can be described as a sharing of knowledge between child and an adult, in a hands-on, child-directed atmosphere. Kidz Korner provides a high quality early childhood program where the children are active learners in both a structured and unstructured setting. The teachers develop learning experiences and ask questions that encourage children to think and problem solve. They nurture and develop the social, emotional, physical and intellectual stages of each child.

I have toured this provider's facility, but have not used its services

Do yourself a favor and research this company and the management. They are horrible. Your children deserve loving and caring caregivers and this place doesn't provide that. Horrible management and owner who don't care about children just your money.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Terrible daycare. Hire a nanny it will cost less and give your kids proper attention and care. Teachers were young and inexperienced and hurt my children. I had to pull them from the daycare because of Ashley Hubert and Allie Goyette. Understaffed and owner is only there for the money.
