  • “We couldn't be more thankful for Gina and Tony at KiddiTime. They've created a caring, nurturing and learning-based environment at their center. Our 20mo daughter has blossomed already in just a few short weeks. Her language development, socialization, physical abilities and even eating have developed significantly thanks to Gina and Tony.”

    Pamela S.

  • “We are thrilled with Kidditime! Our child started in September, and we couldn't be happier. Our kiddo looks forward to drop off every morning and is still in a happy, friendly mood at pick up. Thanks for all you do, Kidditime!”

  • “We love receiving several pictures a day of the activities and play the kids engage in and I feel so lucky to know my child is being cared for and developmentally appropriately stimulated every day in such a loving and thoughtful, family-like environment. I would highly recommend KiddiTime to any parent in the area!”

  • “They go above and beyond for the kids. They keep us updated throughout the day with updates and images. They are truly caring and my son is always happy, clean and well fed when he is back home.”

  • I can't express enough how grateful we are for KiddiTime and the incredible care Gina and Tony provide for our 18-month-old daughter, Avery. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the spotless cleanliness of the daycare. It's a relief to know Avery is in a safe and engaging environment with so much to do.

    Mitch S.

  • “We absolutely love KiddiTime! I recently returned to work after being a stay at home parent for a few years, and we were incredibly lucky to find a spot at KiddiTime. Gina and Tony really radiate positive energy and they made us feel immediately comfortable. We get so many photos of him throughout the day and it's great to see all the different activities he is doing.”

Kidditime Daily routine

Note: Our general daily routine may change according to the monthly theme, group of kids, interests, and special events.

  • Parents will check in their children electronically. Teachers will greet each child and take their temperature. Parents cannot leave until teachers confirm that the child is checked-in. Then children will put away their shoes, jackets, and backpack in their individual cubby locker and wash their hands with soap.

  • Nutritionally balanced meals with mostly organic food will be served.

  • Group time is filled with music and movement, songs, games, finger plays and language activities, and more.

  • Children are free to choose from mostly Montessori-based toys, games, or puzzles and the area in which they wish to play to develop their early childhood skills. Teachers will observe and help children learn how to use materials correctly.

  • Teachers and children clean the room together and in the process, children learn where materials are stored. Children will learn how to care for themselves in a relaxed non-pressured atmosphere.

  • Light healthy snacks will be served.

  • Children will use gross motor skills to play outdoor activities while learning outdoor safety and guidance from teachers.

  • Lunchtime is a great opportunity for children to help set the table and have an opportunity to practice good social skills with peers and teachers. Meals are well balanced, nutritious, and meet CACFP guidelines.

  • Children will nap or rest on their sleeping mats. Children who do not nap can do quiet activities on their mats.

  • Children are free to choose from a mixture of Montessori-based puzzles, toys, games, and the area in which they wish to play to develop their early childhood skills. Teachers will observe and help children learn how to use materials correctly.

  • Hearty healthy snacks will be served to keep the children going until pickup time.

  • Children will have free play indoor/outdoor.

  • Children will gather their belongings and be prepared for pick up.
