We had a wonderful experience at Organic Kids Academy - I cannot say enough thank you to the teachers and administrators here. If we haven't moved to Long Island, we would definitely stay at Organic Kids for the coming years.
We really appreciate the care, love, and warmth my son's teachers gave to him. He was in one of the 2-yr old classes, three ladies taking care of that class - Ms. Julia the lead teacher, Ms. Romina the class TA, and Ms. Indhira, they are the best!! They helped my son so much as he was transferred from his previous daycare. Not only he was no longer nervous or crying, he has been looking forward to go to class everyday since then. He's learned so much from a variety of activities and educational programs offered here, from daily circle time, art and crafts activities, indoor - outdoor play time, summer program, etc. I am surprised by him all the time! Till today, he still misses his teachers at Organic Kids, and we cannot say enough thank you to them!
The administrators/ owner are always on site and stay on top of what's happening in the school - I am impressed with their dedication, hard work, and accessibility. When you have a question, you will get an answer. They are also very kind and flexible, with quick understanding of a conversation - back to the time before we got a final moving schedule, we asked the school if my little one could stay for a few more days, they immediately said yes and told us they could keep him until we move (given that we informed them a month in advance that we are leaving).
We also love the fact that Organic Kids has very new facilities and well planned spaces for kids activities. The school is up to date with techs, too - parents will get updates (pics, notes, etc.) from their portal APP to monitor the kids' activities through the day. The APP also functions as a communication tool between the teachers and parents, which is so convenient for parents to have a quick access to the school whenever something pops up, and vice versus.
Lastly, I must mention the strong sense of community fostered at Organic Kids. We have built precious friendships with several families here, through the school's family/ community friendly environment and atmosphere.
We genuinely recommend Organic Kids to any parent seeking a nurturing, loving, and stimulating environment for their child. The experience we had here built a great foundation of my son's further development, it will stay in our family story. Thank you, Organic...
Read moreMy daughter and family have been with Organic Kids Academy (OK) since she just turned two. We are very happy with our time here.
We are a Chinese speaking family, so the first thing I was worried about was how she’d fit in a such strange environment that all in the sudden she can’t understand a word on top of being away from mom. But the teachers and the office are very supportive, and good at keeping an open dialogue. The teacher even learnt her first mandarin sentence to let my daughter know that mommy is coming soon. Otherwise, no one is treating her differently.
The open conversation moving forward has been great and important to me. When my daughter had a hard time adjusting to the 3 year old program, the office called and tried to discuss options with us to help her.
The teachers are fantastic. They would always keep us posted for her daily spirit via this wonderful APP that the school provides to all parents. Being able to see multiple pictures even videos throughout the days help me my days by. And reinsure a sane mind of mine not getting crazy guessing how her days been going. Whenever I can talk to the teachers they are always positive with my daughter’s experience at school.
The office is always treating us like families. They always try to understand each family’s needs, at the same time being open to their limits. It’s a healthy partnership relationship to me.
Since the 3k program started, all the activities occupies the kid’s afterschool lives. Save us a lot of trouble trying around search for her interests. The afterschool teachers are also loving. I can tell that they made the selections very carefully.
I really look forward for my daughter to stay here as much as she...
Read moreAs first time parents, it was essential for us to feel like the day care provider offered a safe, loving and nurturing environment for our one year old daughter. Organic Kids Academy continuously exceeds all expectations and the staff are incredible and consistently professional. Our daughter aabsolutely loves attending this school each day. She attempts to open the door and ring the bell each and every morning. The food menu is balanced and nutritious. Our daughter never skips a meal and we receive ecommendations for meals to prepare at home. Communication with the teachers and staff is really good! The curricula is rich, challenging and fun and we enjoy the structured environment Ms. Jenefer provides. Lastly, but very important to mention, unlike many other day cares, Organic Kids Academy is never closed. Without hesitation, we would recommend Organic Kids Academy to anyone that is in search of a day care provider that will treat your child as their own.
Sincerely, Chichi and Chris D’Amato Rues...
