Kinder Village Child Care Center by Episcopal Homes

Dec 30th, 2023

Kinder Village has been an absolutely wonderful place for both our girls to start their childcare experience. The staff are thoughtful, caring, and kind, the exposure to elders through episcopal homes is so unique, and we always feel informed and aware of what is happening throughout the day. From 7 months old to preschool, our little ones have adored KV. Highly recommend for any families in St. Paul!

Our daughters have been at Kinder Village for two years after coming from a different center. The change was wonderful, the staff and director at KV are amazing, caring and attentive. The curriculum has prepared them for kindergarten both from an educational and emotional standpoint. The intergenerational activities with Episcopal Homes residents is definitely a highlight, my daughters love seeing with their "grandfriends". The small class sizes with two teachers in each preschool room meant that my daughters weren't overlooked and felt a true connection with all their teachers. I genuinely recommend Kinder Village and wish we had been here from the beginning.

When it came time to decide where to send my 3 month old baby for daycare, Kinder Village won me over with their warm staff, cozy infant room, and the continuity of care I knew my daughter would receive as she progressed to different classrooms. Kinder Village has been like a second home to my daughter, who has been attending for 4.5 years now. The teachers are amazing, there is strong staff retention, and the school goes above and beyond to provide children with a variety of unique experiences. From activities with "grand-friends," to swim days, to field trips, to spirit weeks, Kinder Village makes learning fun. It's also along a bus and light rail route, and my daughter has loved the days when we've taken public transit to school. I feel lucky to have found such a loving and supportive environment for my daughter to grow up in.

Kinder Village is just the sweetest little gem of a daycare! From the moment we walked in the door it was so warm & welcoming (and had this almost-magical feeling) -- we just knew it would be the perfect place for our family. The teachers are the best! They truly love the children and go above & beyond to make each day special for the kiddos: from nature walks, to spirit weeks, to water days...it's non-stop fun (we get a sneak peek to their day with pictures and updates from parent app, which as a parent is one of the best parts of YOUR day!) One hidden benefit is that the school is attached to the senior living center, which means even more fun with the Grandfriends! From yoga & dance parties, to trick or treating & art projects, to drum circles & movie days, the kids and grandfriends create a special bond that's mutually beneficial (plus you even get invited to fun family carnivals & events hosted by Episcopal Homes). Highlights: - no lunches to pack! all meals are professionally prepared by Episcopal Homes - fun family events with your kids (ex. Muffins with Mom on Mother's Day) - extra curricular activity options during the school day (ex. Soccer Shots) - field trips (ex. Como Zoo and Children's Museum) - special pool party days in the warm-water therapy pool (check out AMI Swim Schools, you can sign up for lessons and then relax at the in-house pub while your kids swim!) Kinder Village is an all-in-one daycare center that's been a completely wonderful & amazing experience for our family for the past few years. We can't say enough good things about Kinder Village! Thank you for all the magical memories & love!
