See what some of our families have to say about their experiences at various EduKids locations.

“I would just like to write a quick note to tell you how wonderful the Elma EduKids is and how awesome your staff is. For the past week or two when we come to pick up Hailey, she runs to one of the teachers and sits on their laps or gives them a big hug. Dan and myself think this is awesome because it's an outward expression on how much she loves it there and how great the teachers are. She doesn't want to come home! Haha! The teachers in her room are always so personable to us, and they always let us know how she did that day and tell us little stories about what may have happened or something she did during the day and we just love that. All of the teachers that are regularly in her yellow duck room are amazing - miss Lisa , miss Sarah and miss Rachelle. I also am always amazed when I bring her there very early in the morning some days how there are multiple other teachers from many other rooms in the building and they all know her name and are eager to play with her, get her breakfast, and get her situated. As a parent, that is so huge and I thank them all for that.

The other day I came home from work and Dan had already picked up Hailey. He told me how one of the teachers (miss Jess - from the bluebird room) was laying on the ground with one of the kids and she was reading a book and helping to teach the child colors through reading that specific book. He said he was so impressed by that. Not only is EduKids a place that takes care of Hailey and watches over her during the day... but it's also a place that furthers her skills, knowledge and interaction with others. This is all because of you and your wonderful staff. We just wanted to say THANK YOU for the awesome job you guys do and thank you for the little things that you guys don't HAVE to do but do because you care for the children! Thanks for going above and beyond!”

- Dan and Breanna Voigt, Parents

"I just wanted to personally leave my heartfelt gratitude to Miss Amber, the director at the BLVD location, and to all the girls that helped raise my son. They go above and beyond when it comes to teaching, nurturing and in our case spoiling my child! We love them dearly and will miss them as we move away from Buffalo! Xoxo"

-Dominae Kalodimos, Former NFB Parent

"I wanted to let you know that we are extremely pleased with the care and the education Jacob has received at EduKids beginning almost 2 years ago when he entered as a Bluebird. We are very impressed with the quality of your staff and the progress he has made both socially and academically. The UPK program along with Miss April's kind and encouraging nature have set the groundwork for Jacob's love of school and we could not be more pleased. Thank you for all that you do for our children."

-Angela Szwed, Former West Seneca Parent

"Just a quick note to say how happy and grateful we are to have finished up our children's 5th year at Edukids Elma. Every teacher holds a special place in our daughters hearts. The director Pam is ALWAYS ready and available anytime and also treats the children as her own. Keep up the great work Edukids Elma!"

-Mrs. Giunta, Elma parent

"I thought this day would be much easier than it is....my girls had their last day at EduKids. I thought the extra money at the end of the month would be exciting, but it is quite the oposite. EduKids has been the girls home away from home since they were 10 weeks old. The EduKids teachers and staff have been absolutely fantastic at every moment. I always knew that my girls were safe, happy and learning valuable life lessons. We were always welcome and were always met with friendly smiles. We had many questions and needed a lot of advice throughout the past 5 years and we were given the best answers and advice whenever we needed it.

As they say, "It takes a big heart to help shape little minds". It is quite clear to my husband and I that there are many big hearts at EduKids. EduKids will always be a part of our family and we will be forever grateful for this experience. Thank you EduKids."

-Kathryn Lahrs, former Elma EduKids parent

"I just wanted to thank you, Lisa and Tammy for bringing the West Seneca location back to what it was. By and large our time with EduKids has been wonderful and positive, and you all have had an amazing impact on our daughter's life. I hope you and all of the teachers know how important your work is and how much you mean to families. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We will miss this wonderful place!!"

-Lisa B., Former West Seneca Parent

"I just wanted to say that we loved EduKids, from the moment we walked through the door, the most important thing was the genuine feeling that the staff loved their jobs and loved the kids. Miss Judy was exactly what he needed in the Yellow Ducks and when she was the early morning person for Purple Dino's, that was a bonus. At our son's Kindergarten screening he knew things and concepts that I didn't even realize! Thoroughly impressed with the curriculum and education he received.

We think of our EduKids friends everyday. Thank you so much for all you have done. He is an amazing, happy boy and I know EduKids is a HUGE part of that!"

-The Andruszko Family, Former Orchard Park EduKids Parents

"Just a quick note to say how happy and grateful we are to have finished up our children's 5th year at Edukids Elma. Every teacher holds a special place in our daughters hearts. The director Pam is ALWAYS ready and available anytime and also treats the children as her own. Keep up the great work Edukids Elma!"

-Erin G., Elma EduKids Parent

"My daughter has been with EduKids since she was 6 weeks old at the Elma Facility, Pam (director) and the staff have been so great and accommodating over the years with her. Elma is Zoe's second home/family. I can't thank them enough for their hard work and we greatly appreciate everything they have done for my family on a daily basis. She will be relocating to the West Seneca EduKids come fall. We are blessed to have gotten into the facility. I would highly recommend this learning center to anyone looking for a place for their children. I know Zoe will continue to learn and grow in West Seneca. I'm excited to meet all the staff and know they will be just as welcoming as Elma was to us."

-Chelch R., Elma & West Seneca EduKids Parent

"Both of my kids have been at the Elma Center since they were 6 and 8 weeks old. This center is the BEST!!!! The staff is like family and truly have had my children's best interest first and foremost. My kids love this place and always will, my kindergartener still comes in to get his little sister, and gets hugs and hello's from all the teachers and of course Pam!!!!"

-Micki M., Elma EduKids Parent

"Pamela is such a great leader for the staff at Elma and it shows through everyday with how happy my daughter is in the Yellow Ducks room and how well adjusted my son is after already such a short time in the Baby Ducks room. I am so thankful for trustworthy providers that actually care for my children while they are away from us. That is invaluable and not easy to find!"

-Sara R., Elma EduKids Parent

"My daughters have been at the Elma location since it opened. They LOVE going and we LOVE all of the awesome staff! They have also been extremely well prepared for school! Thank you EduKids!"

-Amanda E., Elma EduKids parent

"My son started at EduKids in Elma when he was just 3 months old. I was nervous about leaving my first born to go back to work but everyone immediately put me at ease. His birthday is in November, so he started Kindergarten when he was still just 4 years old, but he was completely prepared, more so than some of the older kids in fact. I know that is due in tremendous part to the effort his teachers put in over the years and I am beyond grateful for that. My daughter is part of the EduKids family now too and I would recommend EduKids (especially Elma!) to anyone."

-Heather H., Elma EduKids Parent

"I drop my girls off in the morning knowing that they are in for a day of fun, friends and learning. I am always amazed by what they know and how they are growing from a developmental standpoint. The teachers and staff have exceeded my expectations year after year!"

-Joyce Z., Orchard Park EduKids Parent

"I can't say enough about Maryvale EduKids! The teachers, director, and the infant program are fantastic! It's amazing to see how much my twin girls Abigail and Amelia have learned and developed over the past year. Being a working parent has its challenges but knowing my children are in good hands eases my mind."

-Gretchen L., Maryvale EduKids Parent

"We are always greeted warmly when we bring our child into the center and usually one of the teachers takes him as we enter instead of asking us to put him down. We always get a verbal and written summary of his day and he always is happy, fed and clean when we pick him up. He is always smiling at his teachers which makes me feel confident leaving him in their care. There are a lot of different activities and toys in the center so I know he is getting good stimulation while he is there. I feel like he is in school and not just being watched. The teachers are always smiling and seem to genuinely care about my son!"

-Mrs. Brown, EduKids at Rich Products Parent

"When choosing a day care center for your child, you want it to be a place where you feel your child is safe, secure and most importantly, loved. When my son, Emmett, first started at the Maryvale center I worked outside the home, now, I am a work at home mom. However my son continues to go to EduKids twice a week, because not only is HE so happy there, I love the way the teachers care for him, as well as the fantastic friendships he is making during his interactions with his peers. EduKids has put this mommy's mind at ease when it comes to choosing a secondary caregiver for my child!!"

-Jillian O., Maryvale EduKids parent

"The teachers are amazing. All four of my children loved their teacher in the Orange Bear Room. She truly cares about her students."

Barb, Former Orchard Park EduKids Parent

"The facilities were always spotless, the staff (all of them) were very friendly."

Mr. and Mrs. D., Former Elma EduKids Parent

"EduKids has a very friendly and caring staff. I loved that EduKids is a very family oriented facility. I always felt very comfortable when leaving my children in the staff's care."

Mr. and Mrs. K., Former Elma EduKids Parents

"I love that there is an Edukids right where my husband works! If my son or daughter is sick, he can get to them quickly. I also like the structure/routine Edukids provides. The teachers are so kind and my kids love them!"

Sarah K., Rich Products EduKids Parent

"I wanted to write you today not as a current parent of EduKids but as a potential parent of an EduKid. I visited EduKids and immediately felt welcomed. In every single room the staff was interacting with children in a positive and caring manner. As an early educator myself, I knew what I wanted for my son and EduKids was doing everything.

I believe that EduKids will care for my son, teach my son, and help him grow. I know that because of the staff's professionalism, their visible relationships with the children and organized atmosphere that they are the reason that so many children are lucky to be at EduKids, I am so happy my son will be one of them."

-Jillian G., Niagara Falls Boulevard Future EduKids Parent

"I have had kids at EduKids for the last seven years. We started at the Orchard Park location, and transferred to Hamburg when we moved. I cannot speak highly enough about both locations. My kids have not simply been ‘babysat’. They’ve come home each day singing songs, telling stories, and full of knowledge they learned throughout their day. I have never experienced a teacher my kids didn’t love, and the directors have been nothing but caring & accommodating. Being a working parent can be stressful. But knowing my kids are in good hands makes it so much easier. I would recommend EduKids to anyone looking for child care!"

Bridget F., Hamburg EduKids Parent

"From the first day, the teachers at Orchard Park welcomed our children into the classrooms and filled their days with fun, enriching play and activities to spark their creativity. The staff members are very professional and always greet the children with a warm smile and a kind approach. When our older children went to kindergarten, they were more than prepared and ready to succeed."

Laura D., Orchard Park EduKids Parent

EduKids is a wonderful place. Our daughter has been here since she was 12 weeks old. She is now turning 2. They care for our precious girl in a way that makes us very very happy. Her development and personality, is in a great part, due to the wonderful environment and caring staff that surrounds her at EduKids every day! Thanks so much for loving our child as much as we do!"

Rich & Jen B., Niagara Falls Boulevard EduKids Parents

"My son has been at EduKids since he was 10 weeks old. He is now 18 months old and has an impressive vocabulary, largely due to the play-based activities, crafts and lessons he has been receiving at EduKids with his outstanding teachers.

I am a working mom and wish so much that I could be there to teach my son new skills, but that just isn't feasible for my family. And truthfully, I don't know that I could have fostered his high level of development without his teachers. I rely on their expertise and experience to help me understand typical young child development, behaviors, and possible health concerns. They also give great suggestions on how to help at home.

Most importantly, I know my son is safe, loved, and well cared for when I leave him at EduKids each day because his teachers treat him like their own. I feel like we made a great choice with EduKids and our son gets exceptional care for the tuition that we pay."

Victoria P., Niagara Falls Boulevard EduKids Parent

"We love bringing our son to EduKids because the attention that he receives from the teachers, not only in his class but in the entire center. I love knowing that he is going somewhere that the teachers love him just as much as we do if not more. Everyone there is so friendly and welcoming, and they give all the children so much attention and love. He comes home learning something new everyday. I cannot wait for our youngest son to start going there."

-Bethany Z., Rich's EduKids Parent
