Melanie Martin

My son has gone to here since he was 1 and he graduated from the pre-K program and he's in kindergarten now at a big boy school and still asks to go back. He loves his teachers there they have always been so caring and helpful. The hours and the caregivers/teachers are wonderful while I wish I could be home with my kiddo I'm glad when I couldn't they've been there!

Heather Roberts

Our little man brought home his coloring project and ate them out of snacks! He hasn't been exposed to daycare before. And after our second time with kids by the hour he came home happy and full lol after making friends and doing his activities, he let mom and dad have a few and far between date night. Highly recommend. They were great!

Elma Mehmedovic

Absolutely love this place! The staff is amazing, Nicole is such a great director, she makes all of her students feel right at home. This is the one place where I can leave my on & not have to stress out about what’s going on. They let you know everything & every morning I drop my son off, he’s ready to run to the back & be with his teachers & classmates!! Thank you guys for the amazing experience, I’m super glad to have a place like y’all 🩵

Ety Rankov

Our kids love the place and the teachers love our kids- the end! Hours are amazing and flexibility incredible! Literally can drop them off anytime and they are open till midnight! I’m not sure who leaves their kids there that long, however we have left our oldest there till 9pm once or twice. Not a big fan of them not allowing you to bring your kids’ food. It’s not about the $1/meal but I’d like to monitor what my kids eat. Still an amazing concept, I’m surprised it’s not more mainstream. Awesome staff! Miss Morgan and miss Melissa are the best!

I am the grandmother of a 1 year old. We visited multiple daycare and my grand daughter got sick in the 1 we picked 2 days after she started and on top of that they lied about alot of things. We found Kids By The Hour. She love it. We dont have to feel bad about dropping her off. And sometimes on the weekend her sister joins her. Nothing but good so far about. Kids by the hour. The staff is wonderful.
