Reviews from Kids on 12th Families


★★★★★

“We're so lucky to have this place. The flexibility is why we chose it initially (our kid attends 2 mornings per week, but we can add on any amount of days as needed). But we were sold forever when on day 1 our two year old walked right in the door like he'd been going there for years. He's still excited (no tears whatsoever) each day he goes to school with Ms. Casey, Ms. Gwyneth and team. He's a big fan of the teachers, and the space and philosophy are wonderful for his needs. The communication with staff & administration is amazing too, and I'm impressed that even though my child is very part-time they treat us no differently from full-time families and they all seem to know my kiddo well.”

“…wanted to update this since its been a few years since- we continue to be HUGE fans of kon12. The staff is loving and the kids have a great time in their care! We have loved every aspect of getting to know them through the years and cant recommend them enough. If you are looking for a micro school, after care, preschool or summer camp but need flexibility you’ve found your match. The ability to have drop in coverage in the event of a day off of school is invaluable to working families. Kon12 is part of our village, and we are forever grateful to have found them!!”
