StarChild Academy

Star Child is a very good and reputable child care provider. The owners are very active in the operation and address issues promptly when they arise. I particularly appreciate the extra curricular activities offered. Additional benefit is not having to find care for kids when school is not in session. If you are looking for before or after school care I highly recommend Star Child.

Top notch security. Friendly and attentive staff. Cindy at the front desk remembers EVERYONES names and faces. Finger print security. Astonishingly clean. Great academics. Wonderful extracurricular activities. Good discipline habits.

The quality of your child’s experience depends heavily on your child’s teacher. The same with any «School», I’m sure. A couple of things I’d change? Healthier food options. Instead of fruit loops, pop tarts and animal crackers maybe real cheese and crackers, peanut butter, etc. Healthy food can be kid friendly!
Also– a cover over the play area would be a huge benefit to the kids, especially in the summer heat. I know other Starchilds have them. The slides get so hot the kids can’t even use them!
Starchild is also very focused on academics. The classrooms are sterile with no toys left out. The days are also VERY structured with new activities every 15 minutes. While this can keep kids from being bored it also can be tough for a little one to switch gears so often and doesn’t allow them much creative freedom. I’ve heard from other parents and teachers that say when their kids leave Starchild and start public school that the kids are ahead academically but behind socially. Trade off, I guess.
