Our WOW Factor
Kids Point has three locations that offer a variety of childcare programs. We offer Daycare, Preschool, and a School Age Programs. We have extended hours opening at 5:30AM and closing at 6:00PM. We are state-licensed so we follow all their rules and regulations. All of our staff have background checks done, orientation training, and continue education training required every year and are CPR and First Aid trained. For added security we have cameras in the classrooms and locks on the doors where parents have a code to get in and out of the building. We have a software called Brightwheel where parents check their child in and out on the tablet, they also pay their bills electronically, and communicate with teachers through this app. Brightwheel is a great app to help parents feel connected with their children throughout the day. The teachers chart diapers, bottles, meals, naps, activities, and pictures of the children throughout the day. Kids Point provides food at their facilities. We focus on fresh fruits and vegetables and less processed foods. Kids Point focuses on the child as a whole to create a fun-loving environment where children can learn and grow.
Kids Point Mission
Kids Point is a place where children can explore, learn, and grow in their education. Our goal is to lead families and young children to seek a relationship with Christ. We provide a safe, secure, loving environment where appropriate play experiences contribute to the physical, social, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual development of each individual child.
Learning
At Kids Point we see the potential kids have at a young age to learn and grow. That is why we offer curriculum starting in infancy. When they are babies we start introducing basic sign language and focus play around meeting milestones. Then when they are one years old they have a set curriculum that advances as they age into preschool and also into school age years.
Shuttle
If you have children at different facilities, we do offer a morning shuttle service so you would only have one drop-off location. There is a weekly fee for this if you want to use this service.
Nutrition
Kids Point provides nutritious rich foods with fresh fruits and vegetables and less processed foods. Included in your tuition is a morning snack and afternoon snack. Lunch is not provided. We do offer a catering option that can be added to your tuition. With this option lunch will be catered into Kids Point for your child at $5 per day and be offered Monday through Thursday. These parents would still need to bring a lunch packed from home on Friday. You sign up on a monthly basis for the days your child is contracted to attend.
