The 10 Best After School Programs in Columbus, Ohio

Here is a review from an user.

Well organized religious organization. The Sunday Zawiyah which includes sharing a meal time (breakfast or lunch) with families is a beautiful way to spend time together as a family while socializing with other families. The Pre-Jummah lectures every Friday is very educative. The best part is the Arabic school on Saturday for the kids, my kids love it and they have learned a lot from attending.

Kiddie Academy provided fun, safe, clean and loving environment to help kids grow and learn. They have an awesome indoor playground with climbing wall. Their curriculum cover all different area. So many time, we were suspired by my daughter told us those things she learn at KA. We are very grateful to KA.

Both of my children went here. The ladies loved my children like their own, and my boys loved every single person that worked there. Also the lunches that are provided for the children are the best that I have seen from a daycare. I absolutely love kidz planet, and I'm grateful for being so caring to my boys and my family.

My experience with this group has been superb interesting and unique activities, a learning experience in a fun environment

It is great

My daughter has been attending the Hempwood Columbus location since she was 4 months old (she is now months). We have felt so cared for and they love her so much. She struggled with her naps up until she was about a year old and they were so accommodating and worked with me to help her get the best sleep that she could. Now that she’s down to one nap, the great activities that they do with her are the focus and she comes home healthy and happy. I don’t have any doubts when I drop her off each morning.

This is an amazing daycare

Very caring. Haven't any complaints. Children are well taken care of

It hurts Me to see people complain about a pantry that feed hungry people. That's what they are here to do. If you have nowhere to sleep then you have nowhere to eat, and thats what they are here for. This is a good place to go. All they want is to make sure everyone has something to eat for at less a few days. Not all of the volunteers are disrespectful. You may get a 2% chance of that. Understand that these people deal will all kinds of people from all walks of like. They also deal with people with mental disabled. Plants need water and people need food. Without that we will die. So please try to walk in everyone's shoes by putting yourself in their place. What would you do? How would you feel, and how hard would it be for you to ask a stranger for help?

My Baby has been going to the center since she was 4.5 months old in the Infant program and she absolutely loves it there. All the teachers are amazing!! They keep us apprised of the progress and how we as parents can help! It’s a very engaging community of children and teachers.

Little buckeye is a great place the teachers are great they make a 1st time mommy feel comfortable leaving there little one for the 1st time. There very neat and clean and always there to help I would recommend this great daycare to everyone it's more like a family.

Great learning environment for my daughter, professional staff, very compassionate towards the families, great food, great atmosphere for learning

Wonderful program. I highly recommend.

I brought my daughter in for the initial assessment on April th after researching other centers. She has been in tutoring for math 3 days per week since then. So far, our family is impressed. Everyone has made us feel welcome and has ensured that all our questions are answered. My daughter loves going to tutoring (especially since the students earn items from their mini store). I chose this center based on the 1 to 1 approach instead of small group tutoring that the competitors use. I will update again after my daughter has finished sessions (we will receive a progress report) and again at sessions (daughter will be re-assessed). I highly recommend this center. **Update: After coming here for three sessions per week for /2 months, my daughter has gained one full grade level in math.

Amazing experience! Perfect for a fun girls night. The new studio is absolutely beautiful too! If you haven't tried a wine your art out night yet I highly recommend scheduling one right now!

Since taking over this building as center director 6 months ago there have been vast improvements. Our teachers are so passionate in what they due. A lot of them have decided to advance thier career in early childhood by obtaning their CDA.

This daycare is high quality for a manageable price. They have a great director who makes me feel as though she knows everything about my child even though she is not her teacher. She also really makes sure that the teachers are always kept mindful of how they can be keep things tip top. My toddler is potty training and I felt so relieved to have her teachers on board with this process and on the same page. This facility has a wonderful security program that allows you as the parent to watch security cameras in your child's classroom room if you pay. The presence of a parent connected security system adds a lot of accountability, and whether you pay for it or not it is nice to know it is there. It is FREE during your child's first month at the center. This was such a great way to build trust for me when my toddler started. Meals are included in your fees. I thought this added to the affordability. The meals are balanced and are ALWAYS pork free. This was important to us. For vegetarian families they also have vegetarian meals available. The socialization of a daycare is irreplaceable. Their curriculum is sound and prepares your child to excel when they start school. They have plenty of fun activities that keep kids excited. They also have an amazing multi-purpose room for the kids to play in on rainy or cold days. This special room is called "City Place". It is equipped with a ball pit and play houses. It is big and really gives the kids room to burn off some energy. We have been to other daycares and tried the babysitter route. Children of America is the best choice for our family that gives me peace of mind and gives my baby a safe fun place to be during the days.
