Kid Time

My son went to 2 different preschools before we got into Kid Time. Neither school could meet his needs. He had a speech delay, was biting other children, and doctors were concerned that he may have autism. Then, we got a call from Kid Time Mayhew - it was our turn on the waitlist. I toured with Sydney, the Director of the site, and shared the concerns I had. She offered to have my son go visit and play during outdoor time and see how he did. He joined in right away, and I knew that was his new school. I was also introduced to Bre, Kat, and Raquel, all of his potential teachers. I was even connected with another parent with a similar situation. The sense of community in this organization is unreal. This place is inclusive. It's FUN! The teachers are all amazing and they all participate in every child's development. After a few months, my son is now thriving and has caught up with his milestones, and has come leaps and bounds. Something people don't tell you is that you have to also find a school with teachers that listen to you, the parent, and that also care about your well being, too. Being a single mom can get very tiring and overwhelming. Kid Time and the team really take a huge weight off my shoulders knowing my son is being cared for and that he's cared about. Parents - you'll love this place, and your kids will love it here!

Both my kids love kid time - one recently graduated but still runs up to hug the teachers when we pick up his little brother who still attends.  It's very play focused which is great for them, but with lots of activities mixed in to help them progress academically.  Staff do a great job of communicating with parents and they are responsive when questions/needs arise.

We have been so pleased that our 4-year-old daughter landed at Kid Time!! We value their play-based approach filled with hands-on activities. Our daughter is happy and developing her social/emotional skills while she climbs among classmates outside, does art, or makes-believe inside. We were surprised how warm and attune every teacher is to each child - no matter if they're in their class or not. We've also enjoyed Kid Time's community-building events like camping and potlucks; it is a special group of parents, children and staff. We can't wait for our two other children to attend!

My daughter started Kid Time in August 2021 after being on the wait list for two years! So, parents/caregivers, please get on the wait list now! She started off as a Lunchie (3-4 year olds) and is now a Ruff Dogg (4-5). She loves going to Kid Time. She loves all the teachers. They do so many fun activities and they even have chickens on the site! She loves feeding the chickens with Ms. Kate. I was a bit nervous transitioning her from a small, in-home daycare to a big preschool, but the transition was so easy! The staff is super friendly and caring. My family loves being part of the Kid Time family!

We moved our son to Kid Time when he was having trouble at his old preschool, and were amazed at the change.  The staff really understand child development, and gave him the freedom and physical activity he needed to feel comfortable, as well as giving us stellar advice on managing issues that came up.  Problems that repeated over and over at his other school, disappeared within weeks.As a "Lunchie" his day was mostly fun and playtime, and  we worried about Kindergarden preparedness, but the staff just told us to be patient and let him develop in his own time. Well, he's one month into the "Ruff Dog" older class and already writing his name and drawing pictures to hang on his wall.  So I really feel like their transitional kindergarten / Ruff Dog teachers know what they are doing academically.An all around great school that genuinely cares about your kid.
