Kid's First Childcare Center

"I am so grateful I found Kids First! My son is a part timer here, but has full time love from each and every person who works here. There are so many things he has learned, and he adjusted so quickly. I have no doubt it's because of the wonderful staff! I was so impressed the moment I walked through the door. I immediately felt like they already knew me and cared about me. The sweetest employee Brianna showed me around. The facility is clean and they have great educational and recreational activities for the kids. They also provide all meals, which was a huge plus for me. I had a long and frustrating search for a daycare, including ignored calls and emails; even being laughed at on the phone when I asked if there were openings at other places. I was almost ready to give up when I randomly found Kids First online and called, and the lady who spoke to me was so kind and able to get me in to check out the facility. Kids First was an absolute standout and I couldn't sign up with them fast enough! Thank you so much! I would absolutely recommend this facility to anyone! Edit: We are full time here now and happier than ever! "

"We have tried 3 or 4 daycare centers from Syracuse to Layton. We have also tried an in-home daycare. Our child kept getting bitten..scared to go to school.. crying and dissociation. I had almost given up.. literally was at my witts end. Then I found Kids First. Let me tell you.. Night and Day! My kid is happy.. he looks forward to going to school.. drop offs are a breeze.. The food they serve is much healthier than anywhere else we have found and really promotes a balanced meal. we are very happy we found this school and truly wish we had found it earlier. our child is 2.5 years old and having him somewhere I trust is key to making it through my work day."

"Kid’s First really does put kids first. My littles feel so loved and cared for. They have also really enjoyed the use of sensory play and craft making in their learning. I recently went back to work, which is a hard transition for all of us. The staff helped the transition go way better than I could’ve hoped. Furthermore, my one little LOVES climbing and jumping. To help with those instincts and wants of my little and of other children, they got some new playground equipment that encourages them to climb and jump safely. Kids first is really a reliable preschool/daycare and is very clean."

"Been extremely happy at Kids First. What impresses me is that EVERY worker knows EVERY child’s name and forms a relationship with them. I know that my child is safe and loved here. I also appreciate how they support their employees and make sure they are taken care of - when you have happy employees it means better care for your child."

"A review is a bit overdue, now that we've been with Kid's First for 2+ years. Kid's First has been my #1 choice for daycare for my three children (ages 3y, 18m, and expected newborn). I consider them part of our family and value their role in my children's lives. Every single teacher in the center knows and interacts with my children lovingly and as if they were their own. Management and teachers have always been professional, responsive, and considerate. Procare is used to provide updates and photos on their daily activities, and funny stories/info on their days are also shared during pick-up/drop-off, always keeping me - and even Grammy - involved. Communication lines are always open and parent-teacher conferences are offered regularly. Activities indoors and outdoors are plentiful, allowing my kids to burn their massive amounts of energy. Meals are kid-friendly while meeting and exceeding State standards for healthy meal plans. Any concerns are resolved promptly. I've never had to question the safety - physical, emotional, or otherwise - of my children while in their care, and any incidents between children are well-documented and handled appropriately. The facility is clean and maintained, providing a sanitary environment. Teachers are trained regularly, and turnover is infrequent (all but maybe two have been with the center for 1y+). In the time my kids have attended, we've seen many wonderful updates, from the installation of security cameras and complete remodels of rooms to new playground equipment and strollers for walks. In short, my kids are happy, well-taken care of, and the dedication and commitment of management and teachers to each other, to the children, and to the facility is clear to see. Thank you Miss Katie, Miss Ann, and staff for providing quality care - We could not ask for better!"
