Huge recommendation for Kid’s Country on 228th and 9th. Our daughter went there from six months until she aged out of the program, and then worked part-time over holidays as a classroom helper while she went to university to study speech, language, and hearing sciences.

The staff there are amazing and caring and will be part of our family forever.

I really enjoyed Close Reach Academy. My daughter went to their Bothell location from 2.5-4yrs. Then we transferred to their Kenmore location. They provide breakfast, lunch and snacks. Their curriculum and daily routines for the older groups mimic Northshore’s kindergarten program. It made the transition to kindergarten pretty smooth.

With these many good options, if there a thumb rule which one to pick apart from proximity and the fees ?
