[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if anyone is still wondering about Kids Village, but wanted to round out the perspective above.  We've been there for a while, and I've been more than pleased with the experience.  Our child is excited to go there, and talks about the caretakers and children happily.

We were looking for someplace that has appealing facilities with plenty of daylight, easy outside access, and seems to really enjoy meeting toddlers on their level.  The adjacent outdoor playspace and multiple weekly trips to Shepherd Park playground have been our real selling points.  The staff has been great about potty training as well.  I would like a little more work on table manners though!  In general, they've also done a great job at handling the various unwanted toddler behaviors that crop up (both in our child and others).

It's sometimes hard to talk about the curriculum because the main staff for drop-off and pick-up are not necessarily the main teachers, but we've been pleasantly surprised by how many songs, words, and letters our daughter is naturally expressing.  I really appreciate that they aren't pushing the kids on academics at this age.  We're a bit disappointed that the kids aren't learning/doing much with Spanish, however, though as non-speakers our child may just not be choosing to use the language with us.[/quote]
