Kiddie Junction Educational Institute

"My son attended "For Kids Only Camp" this summer and really enjoyed it. The camp counselors are great. Ms. Danielle is very attentive and you can tell she makes sure everyone has a great time. She is always on top of it. Ms. Meghan is very cautious of my sons tree nut allergy and is concerned whenever they get treats to exclude items that may contain it. We truly do appreciate the kindness of these great counselors. We highly recommend this summer program."

"We sent our 3 year old boy to KJ. It was a wonderful experience. He was (is) a home bird and hates to leave the house. Ms Lisa, Ms Thess, Ms J, Natalie, everyone helped Jack get over his separation anxiety. He came out happy everyday. Also joined the PTO and having a blast with that mom group."

"We are so thankful that we found this place. The environment couldn't be more different from our daughter's previous daycare. There is a significant amount of staff that has been working here for a long time and is dedicated to child care as a career. Every week there is an educational theme that the kids explore. So far our daughter has made a bird feeder, raised caterpillars into butterflies and released them, learned how to protect the environment for Earth week, among many other notable activities and she has only been here for a few weeks! The whole place is decorated like a child's fantasy land, with play rooms decorated like different places around the world and even a ball pit and climbing wall. We had previously been keeping our daughter enrolled in Park District programs for part of the week due to the quality of their programs, but with Kiddie Junction we feel like that is no longer necessary. Can't say enough good things about this place, highly recommend!"

"About two years ago we moved to Des Plaines with a 1 1/2 year old girl. Priority on our list was to find a safe, nurturing, diverse learning environment for our daughter. After researching several daycare options Kiddie Junction Educational Institute was the evident first choice. It was the best decisions we have made to date. Our daughter is now 3 1/2 and we have an 8 month old who also attends Kiddie Junction. Kiddie Junction has incredible staff that sincerely cares about the kids and engages them in learning opportunities as well as play time. Our daughter is always excited to go to daycare, as it really is her second home. Our son is learning a lot for his age like eating by himself:) Sometimes we don't even realize how ready he is for certain things until he does them at daycare. The Kiddie Junction facility is laid out with different themes from around the world, exhibiting the diversity, which was an important criterion for selecting a Daycare for our kids. The Instructors from the various classes know all of the kids that attend the institute and not just the kids from their classroom. A highlight of our day is the online access to pictures of the kids, including a list of their activities and food menu. To foment a great environment between staff and parents, The PTO and the center organize yearly special events such as: ice cream socials, breakfast with grandparents, Christmas show, spring graduation, parents night out, family picnic, etc. The effort that the owner, teachers and the center put into these event and daily activities is impressive. When you are a working parent and someone else is taking care of your kids you want to know that your kids are in a safe, fun and educational environment: prerequisites for them to thrive. Kiddie Junction Educational Institute will offer just that. Thank you Ms. Robin and staff for an incredible 3 years:)"

"Kiddie junction is a really great Educational Center. It really helped my son learn a lot of great things here. He has learned to write his name to eating foods he would never try. The teachers are amazing, they really engage with the kids and work with them where it is needed. The staff is awesome and involve with you and your kids. Ms. Lisa and Ms. Robin listen to you and help you out to the best of their ability with whatever you need. Would definitely recommend to check kiddie junction out."
