Kidsland on Channing

Erika runs Kidsland with amazing dedication, order, and love. She has a wonderful warmth about her and infinite patience to give the children. I am always impressed by her connection with the children. She also has a great routine down pat, so all children can adjust to being with the small group. I cannot emphasize enough what a special place this is and how much care she gives to the kids.

Her communication is excellent. I regularly text Erika and she always sends me photos of what my kids are up to. She is easy to reach over text, phone, or email. I always appreciate how response she is.

The daycare takes lots of trips to local libraries and parks. Children surely never get bored because of it--not to mention their daily visits to the park a block or two from the daycare itself. The setup at the daycare is very kid-friendly and the outdoor space is ideal for children, and fenced in.

The food (all meals and snacks!) they provide is high quality and our children love it. I am also so relieved at not having to provide milk, snacks, or any meals. A huge time saver. The food is nutritious and wholesome and age-appropriate.

I was also grateful to Erika/Kidsland that they accept cloth diapers. It turns out many daycares do not.

We didn't join this daycare for its Spanish immersion program, but this has turned out to be a blessing. I have been surprised by how quickly my kids have picked up some words in Spanish.

Every day my eldest comes home and says "I had a great day at Erika's!" (If my youngest could speak I'm sure I'd hear this from her too.) I have seen many daycares in the area, and hers is by far the best fit for my family. I am so grateful to Erika and Kidsland for being such an incredible partner in helping me to raise my two children. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have; I will be happy to share my special experience at Kidsland Channing.
