Both my kids attend Kineo and have thrived over the years. The teachers are very kind and loving - incredibly supportive. They focus on social-emotional learning, play-based learning, and meeting the kids where they're at. They have a very close working relationship with the parents and always have the kid's well-being in mind. Highly recommend!
