W 75th St Knowledge Beginnings

We’ve been at KB for four months now and couldn’t be happier. My husband and I visited a lot of daycare’s in the area and knew right away this was the right place for us. Leaving your infant in the care of others is extremely difficult but knowing he’s in great hands makes it easier. The teachers genuinely love our son and take such good care of him. They are so helpful and keep us informed on how he’s doing. We love the app! They take pictures and send them throughout the day. My son progressed really well with his neck strength as a 3 month old and now sitting up on his own at 6 months. I attest this to KB really working with him. They do a lot of crafts and activities with the infants which I love. My son will let anyone hold him and I know it’s because of all the socializing he’s doing at KB. All of the staff that I’ve come across has been nothing but extremely nice. The facility is very clean. I would recommend Knowledge Beginnings on 75^th Street in Naperville to anyone.

I was very hesitant after reading the reviews but the YMCA after care at our school was full and I gave it a shot. I’m really glad I did. I had many questions, new Exec Director was so patient. Dana is on top of everything — each classroom, the facility, safety, décor even! Billing as well and she’s great with the children and the parents. She answered all my questions ever so patiently — exactly the demeanor you would expect from a place where children play.
Our two yr old tried another facility in Naperville over the summer and although I had many friends tell me amazing things… my two year old still cried every time I dropped him off and it just wouldn’t taper off after 3 weeks. Now that we are at Knowledge Beginnings he cried the first 4 days, and it tapered off!!! Now he walks in ready to go to «school» with his little backpack on. What a relief!
For school age kids they bus before and after from area schools. They offer snacks and the kids do HW there. The prices are better than the safe n sound YMCA program.
For little ones they have infant rooms, toddler rooms, preschool rooms, the facility is super clean and very nicely decorated! He comes home singing many new songs and tells us about his day «I played Play-​Dough». Very cute.
The teachers are great and the directors are awesome with feedback and will help in a constructive way. They offer breakfast, snack, lunch and PM snack. It’s not organic life, but that’s my only wish list item. It is nice to not have to pack lunch, and they do offer fruits and veggies. If you have specific dietary needs the exec director will work with you!

This place is dirty. Just take a look at the toys! must see.
