My niece has been going to Young Kidz Academy since she was 2 years old. The teacher in the 2 year old class was very nice, it was the same teacher since she started. My niece now is 3 years old, there are 2 classes for that age. One class is the gifted program, they have gifted for 3 and 4 year old children. Everyday I'm exited to see what they have done and learned today. The teacher has a high degree in early childhood education, many years of experience and the kids are learning French and Spanish. The teacher is very sweet too. The ratio of teacher to child in the gifted classes is smaller then usual. Get your name on the Waiting List! If you are looking for the best for your child you have to stop by and see this school. A blessing this school. Very happy!

Young Kids Academy is a model preschool. This premier learning institution family owned and operated seeks to provide preschoolers with the requisite social, emotional and academic skills which will render them ready to successfully navigate the challenges of kindergarten both in public as well as private school. As a Broward County educator and parent, I cannot understate the importance of a solid early-childhood educational program. Young Kids Academy has both met and exceeded my expectations in this regard. My child, after having attended the school for 2 years is now transitioning to public school. At the academy student safety, equality, and transparency are their hallmark. The school fosters an atmosphere of mutual respect, student-centered learning, and a curriculum that emphasizes independence, responsibility, and self-discipline. The veteran staff possesses required state certifications, and they continue to recruit highly qualified teachers some who boast Master’s Degrees. The management team is committed to providing a quality education by introducing learning novelty experiences, and technology exposure. They, unlike other pre-schools, are open to parent feedback and involvement. My daughter enjoyed going to school and was passionate about her teachers, and I will miss the team; Ms.Piola, Ms. D, and Ms.Joyce. Thank you all for nurturing my little one, and helping to groom and make her ready for her next educational endeavor.
I endorse this gem of a school, they get my stamp of approval...from an educator's viewpoint; they are worth a visit, you won't regret it.

My daughter graduated the Summer VPK class, Ms. Kim was her teacher. She is an amazing teacher, we all love her and will miss her. I can't believe that my baby is going to kindergarten. She is well prepared. Thank you Ms. Kim and Young Kidz Academy!

Our experience has been a blessed one and we are thankful to Young Kidz Academy. The teachers made the experience of learning fun and we are proud of our son as we have received the scores of him and he did amazing. Their VPK program is outstanding. VPK is a free program for your 4 year old child to go to Per-K, the school will give you all the info of how to apply. They do have the best Transfer Scores. This is a big school, but the classes fill up quickly. They do have a waiting list for the school year.

This is a amazing School. My daughter graduated the VPK class. Excited and thrilled as the entire class did score with Exceeding Expectations and Ready for Kindergarten. The last review is from a teacher that was only employed for two weeks due to her not showing up for work and got upset when she got replaced. I can tell you that the education that my Child has received I feel very excited as I know she's ready for her next Step. The teachers, owners and the director all care and it shows. Very beautiful Graduation.

STAY AWAY! They rotate teachers and staff every couple of months. Not good for children to continuously be introduced to new faces and as soon as they feel safe, they get a new teacher. The son of the owner doesn't know how to operate a school, it's visible by the rotation of staff. There is a child that is constantly abusing other kids, but since he is family to the owners nothing is being done about it. Stay away so this child doesn't attack your child next.

They have all these new fancy gadgets to cover up the lack of experience. Do yourself a favor and keep your child far away, the teachers and staff are great but the owners are a nightmare.

I am a mother of 2 kids. They are 3 and 4 year old. One week ago my best friend Kellly told me about the day care young kidz academy located @ Pembroke road. So I decided to google the school and read any reviews on the school. At first I could not believe what I was reading!!! I called Kelly and told her about it and she said to me don't worry. Its a nice school go and visit them. So I said to myself, well I cant judge a book by its cover. So I decide to visit the day care. So I called the school and spoke to a Lady name Lucy she is the school Director. I made an appointment and so glad I did. She introduce me to the staff, show me the classroom. I seen the front and back playground very safe and clean. They also offer all year round learning for the children. I ask the school Director if the staff have their credentials and experiences to work with the children. The school Director show me a staff credential with all of the teachers information. The Director is highly qualified. I ask to see her certification as well. They seem like caring, dedicated people. The Director told me the staff attends on-going workshops and educational courses related to child care to keep up with the latest happenings. I also visit the pre-k and the 4 year old classroom. The teacher in the classroom ask a 4 year old child to read me a story from a book. These children are reading, writing,doing compound words, spelling one ,two, three letter words and also doing math problem. I could not believe it unless I seen it for myself. I hug the child. At this point I didn't need to see no more. I have enrolled my children in the school. I love it and so will you. Don't listen to what one or two people have to say go and see for your self like I did . Great school love it!!!!

Young Kidz Academy is an amazing place for your children to attend during the most important years. My son has been attending the school since the age of two and I couldn't be happier. As soon as you enroll in the school not only do they welcome you with open arms but you become part of their family. This school gives you a great sense of community as soon as your walk in. The staff is so caring and provides such a great learning environment that my son loves going to school everyday!

I have enrolled my child with Young Kidz Academy as my co-worker's children both attended here and she has always ranted and raved about how happy she is with both the teachers and the facility. It has been a great experience so far. The staff is friendly and they care for each child. I love that you have full visibility to the rooms and can watch the children. They have created a beautiful learning environment. My child is learning and is happy and that is what is most important. It seems they are having a lot of new programs that will be implemented, spanish classes, gardening, etc.. Super Excited.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would because they don't deserve not even a 1/2.

this is not a real school, my child got bitten twice by another child and no one told me anything. this school does not teach children, they are always sleeping. i rate this school a zero and the director is always on facebook. she is never working and always browsing the web. the teachers are always yelling at the children. this school is horrible. Ms Monica is always at the front gossiping and not teaching the children. i had to spend hours with my child at home for her to be on track. my child always hated to go to Mrs Monicas class. This is a injustice to send kids to this school. if you want your child to sleep all day and not learn anything, this is the school for you.

PLEASE-Do Not ATTEND!!!

I only rate this 1 star because I can't submit 0.My daughter has attended this school for 2years. The first month of attendance my daughter told me her teacher Ms. Javette pinched her, it was a surprise to the staff that my daughter made such an accusation because she was 2; and they didn't have a clue she could speak. It was her first time being away from immediate family and she was extremely shy. She wouldn't even ask to use the restroom (separation anxiety ).I told them my daughter had been talking full sentences since she was 11 months, and using the bathroom at 1 yr. I was reluctant to continue sending her there, but after reassurance from the owner Sheila that this would never happen again I continued to allow my daughter to go. My daughter then began going to Ms. Monica, she is the absolute worse. She speaks improperly, and leaves her students daily to go gossip with her "mom" the director Ms. Lucy. She was spotted by another teacher taunting my daughter. I had reservations previously because my daughter cried every time she went to her class. She would say "I don't like Ms. Monica." That teacher confirmed everything. I am so fed up with them and their careless ways. The so called "director" Ms. Lucy sits at the desk every morning to evening on Facebook, she never keeps track of receipts and defends everything Javette and Monica does. The owner is too old and senile to realize what's going on. I have reported them to DCF at least 3 times, but it seems other parents just fuss and remove their child. I ask that you all report them at 9543574800. I believe it was GOD's fate for me to find this number because I searched forever and finally got it. I am passing it on hoping that other parents do not hesitate to use it the moment they see something they disapprove of. From watching television to mopping around children as they sleep, REPORT EVERYTHING! They are horrible and had some of their friends and staff members write fake reviews . They are dirty, messy and have absolutely no work ethic.

Worse decision

This school is horrible! I took my 3 year old there and every time I picked her up they would be watching tv. If I wanted my child being babysat I could have asked a friend, but I send her to a school to get educated. The staff was unfriendly, I could. Barely get a good morning. I completely regret every putting my child there. She hated it there. Once I change to a different school, she was happy as could be. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME, or MONEY, much less your CHILD'S JOY.

Funny how i made a review about this place and others in the past made the same complants about the school and poor staff ethics. And they now have friends or family members of thiers to give them a better review to make them look better. No sir! This school is beyond rude and they make you feel bad and quick to call you negligent and call DCF when you want to take actions that are nessesary due to thier negligance for cleaning the school properly. This school is a joke and they yell at you in front of your own chidren and other peoples children as well... DONT GO TO THIS SCHOOL!!!! You will see for yourselves if you are brave enough to try it out!!!!
