Description: Here at King’s Kids, we’re not your typical daycare center. Instead, we are a Christ-centered, privately owned, fully licensed childcare center that offers parents peace of mind and the assurance that their child is receiving nurturing, loving, attentive, and personalized care and education.
Your children are your most precious gifts, and from the moment they come through our doors, our priority is to help them achieve their potential, realize their purpose, and learn the principles that form a solid foundation in education and in life. Our team of sensitive, creative, and loving teachers love God and love children, and our desire is to partner with you in nurturing and training up your child through his/her most formative years.
Our fun-filled atmosphere is safe, vibrant, and playful, and we view each day as a new frontier for children to explore and experience!
We believe the quality of care we give your children is second only to your own, and we will team with you to make sure you are fully comfortable and secure about the care your child receives.
We’re excited you stopped by, and we invite you to contact us at 973-463-0123 to set up an appointment to visit our beautiful facility in Whippany, NJ and meet our dedicated teachers and caregivers.
