### null review (5/5)

My little boy started at Kids at Play when he was 9months. I knew a bit about KAP from my niece &nephew attending prior. I was very thrilled and it felt comforting to know some of the teachers were still there including the wonderful chef May, 2 Senior supervisors, The Manager and senior teachers among others.
The nutritious, heart ticked food made by May is amazing with a vast menu full of goodness!

The low staff turnover was was great to know that my boy would have those friendly familiar faces for a length of time! Also the great ratio of teachers to babies in Under2’s was good to see.
The love, care, friendliness and safety felt on my first trial visit with my son was enough to make my decision.
What we have gained as parents and what my son has learnt & the friendships he has made over the past 4 years will set him on his educational path for the next 12-13 years of further learning and education.
So many amazing tools used to learn and the free play and fun, exciting activities he participates in he just loves and our faces light up to hear  him tell us each day what he does in transition to school group!
We are certainly going to miss KAP, the teachers and his little buddies, he will be sad to leave for school in october.

Our daughter has thrived at Kids at Play, and sometimes asks to go on the weekend!  Wonderful group of dedicated teachers, lots of interesting and varied activities, home-cooked food, pet bunny, and our daughter is encouraged to explore, create, and be active with her friends.  Highly recommended.
