Creative Kids Childcare Center

"I'm one of the infant teachers at CK of Mahopac. Our directors, Jen and Amber are absolutely wonderful. The best bosses anyone could ask for! Our staff is like one big family. We strive to offer the best possible care for your children each and everyday. We welcome you to join our evergrowing family!"

"We have been part of the Creative Kids family for 3 years. Our kids love going to school every day and are welcomed with hugs and smiles. Directors, Jen and Amber have done a wonderful job of creating consistency for students especially during these difficult couple years. They handled Covid seamlessly while keeping their staff and students safe. They also continue to create fun activities and celebrations for the kids. The families look for forward to activities such as pumpkin patches in the fall , leprechaun trap projects and gardening parties as well as silly themed dress up days and ice cream parties . The directors send communication home daily along with weekly newsletters and monthly calendars siting upcoming events. Classrooms have thematic units in which students incorporate various connected read alouds as well as address various learning styles from art, music, tactile, kinesthetic etc. I pulled my kids out of another sought after daycare in the area because I just wasn’t having the same experience that everyone was raving about online. Staff was cold, systems were antiquated and my kids were constantly sick. Switching to Creative Kids was overall a great decision. I feel I can express my needs to the directors and have open lines of communication. Anytime I have ever had an issue it has been resolved immediately with professionalism and discretion. My children are well prepared for kindergarten, knowing all their letters and sounds as well as many sight words . I feel confident every day knowing that my kids are in being well cared for and making friends along the way ."

"With the pandemic and return to office looming, we were on the lookout for a warm and enriching environment where our 3 year old could finally get some human interaction outside our family and start honing her creativity. I cannot even begin to explain how much we lucked out with Creative Kids. They've taken a girl with some anxiety about being away from home and transformed her into a confident, happy, and fulfilled kiddo that can't wait to go to school and learn. The programming is fantastic, the experiences are varied and catering to both emotional IQ and normal IQ, and the staff is incredibly warm and welcoming. It has become so much her second home that at the end of the day there always comes a play session outside with her friends. I'm legitimately anxious about the day where she'll be too big to attend, but until then gonna soak up every good bit we can."

"We love Creative Kids!! My son has been there since he was 12 weeks old and is now 4! He has learned so much there! We have been through all levels of programs and all teachers are kind and amazing! They truly care about the kids. My son has a severe food allergy so I was always anxious about that but we have never ever felt unsafe at any time. They are extremely accommodating and safety is their #1 concern! The administration is completely transparent when it comes to communicating about literally everything. Whether it’s an update about Covid protocols or a reminder that it’s pajama day! When I originally looked for daycares a few years ago, I called and emailed every place in the area. This was the only one that responded in a timely manner! I took about 3 tours and asked a million questions. Communication is so important! I chose CK mahopac because they overly communicate, challenging curriculum and kind staff. I highly recommend checking them out for yourselves if you are in the market for a daycare. They have great early mornings hours (6:30) which not all day cares have. I welcome any messages from any prospective parents! Creative Kids Mahopac treats your child like they are the most important person at all times."

"My children have gone to this daycare for the past 5 years. They have gone since infancy. The staff are wonderful, dedicated, and caring. They are very hardworking. As an educator myself, I can say that they work very hard to get children ready academically and socially for Kindergarten and beyond. My children never want to leave at the end of the day and run in to the building every morning. It's a great place that I am happy I have chosen for my children. I feel safe and secure with the staff and administration."
