    Our Child attended from Aug 2023-Dec 2023 at this location. Kiddie Academy (KA) lacks compassion, patience and understanding for strong willed children. Our toddler with typical unwanted/difficult toddler behavior was dismissed from their daycare due to his behavior which was a result of their unwillingness to help, lack of compassion, lack of leadership in the classrooms, and lack of understanding of how to manage/care for toddlers. KA initially threatened dismissal early on due to our toddler not being potty trained before his 3rd birthday. He was forced into an older classroom to try to help with his behavior problems. This caused regression and trauma with our childs potty training journey, as they refused to help due to the class not being set up for potty training. This was the worst experience for my entire family and especially my child. They often made us feel like inadequate parents with their subtle judgmental tones, demeanor, and gaslighting conversations. It was clear that our toddler was experiencing emotional turmoil at KA as evidenced by his constant behavior issues. I am still saddened, to this day, that I ever moved my child to KA. I will never forget how terrible they made me and my family feel.

    I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt appreciation for Ms. Erin W. and the exceptional impact she has had on the Kiddie Academy Community. Erin's unwavering dedication, hard work, and genuine care have not gone unnoticed. She exudes a unique warmth that is truly unmatched, making her an integral part of our extended family. My family has been fortunate enough to entrust both of our children to the care of this wonderful academy, witnessing firsthand the incredible growth and development they have experienced under Erin's guidance. Warm regards, The Bakers

    The daycare is ok, but the owner Erin has a terrible attitude problem, very short temper. Some of the teachers and Erin get offended when you question them about certain things regarding your child, as if you should just KNOW they know how to handle the issue or concern, ummm my child is in YOUR care when im not around, I should be able to question you with concerns all I want, and you should be understanding of that! Also Erin loves to make excuses for her teachers if they make a mistake or do something wrong by saying stuff like well they have to deal with a lot of kids in the class, and?? They get paid to do a job and be professional, so thats whats expected!!

Ms. Choice- While it has been nearly four months since your child attended our school, we do appreciate you providing us this feedback. During your child's time at Kiddie Academy our teaching and leadership team put forth significant effort to help him to be successful in the classroom. When he initially began with us he was in our younger three year old room. He was one of the older children in this classroom. During this time, it was stated that your family was working on potty training at home. We were making the same efforts at school since the goal of that classroom is that children are potty trained by early Spring (a developmentally appropriate goal for this age). Your child was not willing to follow classroom rules that are put in place to ensure safety for all children and an educational environment. We met with your family to discuss what we needed to do differently to help him to be successful and follow rules that are important to maintaining his safety and the safety of others. After several weeks of focused efforts based on what was discussed at our meeting there was no improvement. However, my teaching team noticed that in the mornings and afternoons when he was with the older three year olds, he was more successful. We offered to move him up with older children to see if being with children might be helpful for him and you all agreed to this change. Initially, he seemed to do much better with slightly older children. Because of this, we asked that your family remain diligent on potty training since the children in the older 3s classroom potty independently and your child was demonstrating the ability to do so as well. After several weeks in the new classroom your child began to struggle once again with following classroom instructions and was also exhibiting behaviors that were harmful to other children and to teachers. Our concerns as well as our efforts to assist him were routinely communicated to you. We believe in partnering with parents to help children to be safe and successful in our school. We received very little information or feedback from you. As such, we made the very difficult decision to dismiss him from Kiddie Academy so that we could provide a safe classroom environment for other students and staff. Should you have further concerns that you would like to discuss, please feel free to set up a time for us to meet in person. We would love the opportunity to hear how we could have done things differently as we are always in a growth mindset. Respectfully, Erin Wackerhagen, Owner
