Kid's Journey Child Development Center 1105 Annie Ruth Jamar Street, Athens, AL 35611

"They take good care of my granddaughter and she is learning alot."

"Kids journey has a new owner Paula Armstrong the same owner as Tender care, she is amazing and has done a lot of good changes to KJ."

"I am in love with my job! I have been working here for almost 5 years. I have worked in 3 other schools throughout my childcare career, since 1998. This is by far the cleanest, most organized, caring and engaged center I have ever been at. The owner/director is active in the center and always listens to concerns, no matter how small or crazy they may be. Anything I need for my room is always provided and more. My son has attended here since he was a month old. I know my son is in the best place for his education and his well being. I see how each child is cared for and every aspect of a child's feelings and future are taken into consideration, when caring for them. The management is always listening and thinking of employees and students in the most productive way I have ever seen. I am proud to call this company my home. I plan to stay as long as I am needed."

"My daughter attends Kids Journey and I absolutely LOVE this daycare. My daughter adores her teacher and I love the level of communication that the teachers and directors have with me. I get updates and photos throughout the day and it makes my heart so happy that she is so taken care of. I felt 0 panic about returning to work after having a baby and leaving her in the very capable hands of Kids Journey!"

"We have had 2 different children attend this daycare and they have always been great. Recent events have surfaced that showed a teacher mistreating a child. This is never acceptable, and from the information I have seen the daycare responded appropriately (fired the teachers involved and turned them over to DHR and the police). It's unfortunate that this will potentially mar people's view of this facility. From what I've seen, the teacher's truly care for the students and I believe this is an incident of two bad actors who were able to get through the process. I understand and respect that the family this happened to would not want to attend this daycare anymore. I can't say I wouldn't be do the same if it happened directly to my child."
