Parents' Comments
Parent #1
We sent our first son through the entire program and loved it!!! Our second son has now been there over a year and we still can't say enough about the staff, the education and the care that we receive for our son! Best place hands down!
Parent #2
We moved our daughter to Kids Junction about two months ago. In that time we have seen her thrive and open up creatively and intellectually. She is two years old and she is learning letters, colors, knows her alphabet, sings songs, and has more verbalization than before. She is excited EVERY day to go to her preschool, loves her teachers, and can not wait to get there in the morning! There is a gym, an outside play area, and lots of room for walks and playtime. The food is nutritious and delicious. The teachers are loving and really care about the kids. We could not be more pleased!
Parent #3
We love Kids Junction. The teachers are loving and caring providing a home environment in which my son has truly thrived. He will be entering Kindergarten next school year and Kids Junction has prepared him academically, socially and sprititually. Our expectations have been met and even succeeded by not only the teachers but the entire staff. When I drop him off in the morning and head off to work I don't give his care second thought as I feel that my son is with a family member. Great Great School
Parent #4
this preschool exceeds expectations. the teachers are great and knowledgeable, the office staff is always ready to help and our kids are so happy to go there every morning!
this is by far the best place in madison!
Parent #5
The staff was instrumental in assisting us to determine that a son was hearing impaired. He displayed behavior qualities in class that together lead us to conduct tests. Their love, support and best interest of our children was their driving force. We will always be greatful for them.
Parent #6
Strengths include overall philosophy of character building, value system of the teachers and staff.
Parent #7
We moved our daughter from another pre-school to Kids Junction and have never regretted it for a moment! The staff are more like family to us. They are incredible! The teachers truly care for the children and it is a wonderful learning environment. I recommend Kids Junction to any and everyone I know that has a young child!
Parent #8
We love Kids Junction and feel very safe and secure with our kids there. We love the teachers and their dedication, the curriculum and the values that are taught and we also love the communication that we receive weekly about what is happening. We have a child in the all day preschool and another in the after school progam and have been taking them both there for over 2 years. We are lucky to have Kids Junction in our lives. They are great to work with!
Parent #9
Kids Junction is a wonderful preschool. The excitement of the staff to help the children learn and develop is truly wonderful. Their academic curriculum provides so many opportunities for children to have fun while learning.
Parent #10
As a working Mother and new to "Daycare" center for my children as apposed to In Home daycare with someone I knew, the staff at Kids Junction put me right at ease and were very understanding of how I was feeling. They are a great group of people with strong belief in the family and a love for Children.
Parent #11
Our two children have both attended Kids Junction, and I continue to recommend the school highly to others. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the teachers are loving, the curriculum is thoughtful and challenging, and as a result, my children have excelled! This preschool reinforces the moral characteristics that we strive to instill in our children at home, and I believe that our children have benefited greatly from the nurturing environment at Kids Junction.
Parent #12
We have been incredibly happy with our daughter at Kids Junction. They have a curriculum for all ages -the teachers are all certified and my 3 year old is learning so much.
