What Parents Are Saying

To say I would recommend Kiddie Kollege is an understatement. We have two kids there (Ages 2 and 5) and have been through all the baby classes as well as VPK. Every teacher we’ve had we’ve LOVED; they genuinely seem happy to be there, handle the chaos of childcare perfectly, provide a right-on-target education, and show love and compassion to their students. The facilities are also our favorite of any daycare we toured. The playgrounds have turf, misters, and a TON of shade; the classrooms are well equipped with activities/toys/books that keep the kids excited to be there and age-appropriate seating for meals and potty training. Both of our kids look forward to going and clearly feel safe and secure there, what more could a parent ask for from a daycare? Three years in and my husband and I still leave drop-off saying how incredibly grateful we are to have found them.

As a working parent, the feelings about putting your young children in daycare is … conflicting. The teachers and atmosphere at Kiddie Kollege alleviate much of that pressure, guilt, and worry. My girl (5) attended their VPK program and is currently going for afterschool care. Her VPK education was right on target and prepared her well for kindergarten. Additionally (and maybe more importantly?) she is happy to be there. Her teachers show her love and compassion, understand her quirks, and are communicative about any concerns. My boy (2) has been there since he was an infant and has gone through the baby room, toddler room, and now is in the twos room. We have LOVED every teacher he has had. They seem genuinely happy to be there and handle the chaos perfectly. Most days he runs in with a big smile on his face, directly to his teacher for a hug. I joke that she is his “chosen mom”. He loves them and feels safe with them – what more could a parent ask for from a daycare? Kiddie Kollege has become sort of an extended family that we know we can count on. After nearly 3 years, my husband and I still leave after drop-off saying how incredibly grateful we are for them.

The school also had our favorite layout and playground of all the daycares we toured. The playgrounds have turf, misters, and a TON of shade – allowing the kids to get lots of outdoor time even in the Florida heat. The VPK room has class pets and a huge variety of activities/books/toys that keep the kids excited. The little kid rooms are also well equipped with toys and activities as well as age-appropriate seating for meals and potty training. Lastly, having meals/snacks included in the tuition is a game changer for busy parents.

Our experience with Kiddie Kollege Day Care Center has been wonderful. The dedicated teachers have played a crucial role in supporting our children's development from infancy through VPK over the past four years. The VPK program has been instrumental in preparing our son for Kindergarten, providing a solid foundation. Additionally, the 2-3 year old room has been fantastic for our daughter, fostering social development through active play and integrating foundational academic skills. The teachers and staff not only provide the necessary structure but also pour genuine love into each child, treating them as if they were their own. We are grateful for the nurturing environment that Kiddie Kollege has provided for our family.

Our son has been going to Kiddie Kollege since he was four months old and is now 15 months. Since day one the teachers have treated and cared for him like he is their child and we could not be happier. We love the homey feel, safety of the school and have always had great communication with everyone. They also provide formula and food with tuition which is a huge plus for any parent! I considered many daycares in the south tampa area before choosing Kiddie Kollege and we are so happy to call it our kids home away from home. Our daughter has been going to Kiddie Kollege since she was 15 months old and is now in the 3 year old room. When we first started our daycare search, and especially as a first time mom, we wanted to find somewhere that felt warm and safe. We have been beyond happy with choosing Kiddie Kollege. Our teachers from each class have been consistent, kind, caring and we have always been greeted with welcoming arms and smiling faces. Their curriculum is also top notch- my daughter comes home excited to tell us what she has learned, singing her alphabet and counting everything around the house! Our daughter looks forward to going to school everyday and always comes home with a smile. Other parents in our neighborhood have migrated to kiddie Kollege after trying some of the other places in town and they love it too. We absolutely love Kiddie Kollege!

Our daughter has been attending Kiddie Kollege since she was an infant. Now, at 4 years old, she is in the VPK program. During the last 4 years my husband and I have seen her capabilities grow. That growth has been especially noticeable since she started VPK. She has excelled in areas we didn't expect, such as her vocabulary, thanks to the education and attention provided by the teachers at Kiddie Kollege. Our daughter enjoys attending the program and truly loves her teachers, especially Ms. Lisa. We have noticed a measurable difference between our daughter and other children that do not attend VPK. We are grateful for the education and social skills that she has gained by being part of the program.
