We use KV for after school care and summer day camp. They are well run, staffed well, and keep the kids engaged and active. Any time there’s kids issues, I have felt comfortable discussing my concerns and also informed appropriately. I like KV a lot especially because I have a comparison point (previous company doing after school care) and KV is much better run. The previous company seemed always seemed short staffed.

Our school has used Kidventure for 2 years now and we could not be happier! Their staff’s rapport with the students is unmatchable. As a school, we have to trust an after school program to not only be good with students but also have a respectful relationship with our faculties and our staff, and they check all the boxes! We love Shaniece and KP so much we even hired them for our own staff. Thank you KV for taking care of our Bobcats AND our building!

Response from the owner · 11 months ago

What a very kind and thoughtful review. We really appreciate you taking time to list those thoughts. We love our Bobcats and the entire OFE community. Proud to be a part of such an amazing school.
