My child attended KD's Discovery Learning Center from age 4.5 months until his recent graduation at 3.5. For the first three years of his life, KD's Discovery Learning Center provided a loving, nurturing and strong learning environment for my son. He learned to walk, talk and write. They also fully potty trained him. The administration is responsive and reliable.

I’ve been taking my 18-month old daughter to KD's Discovery Learning Center for a little over a year, and we’re all happy with it. It’s very reasonably priced for the area, more flexible than most, and they treat the kids well without climbing up their own butts. They’re concerned with the children’s development.

My son absolutely loves KD's Discovery Learning Center. Our family had a hard time finding childcare that was knowledgeable about breastfed babies and cloth diaper friendly. KD's Discovery Learning Center is both. My son has flourished since he started. He has gained so much coordination and large motor skills as well as social emotional growth.
