Just For Kids Childcare Center and Preschool - Mountain Home, Idaho

My son was part of the infant room, he started going to Just for Kids at 12 weeks and made fast friends with every one of his teachers. The whole staff at Just for Kids is absolutely amazing and truly care about your children and their wellbeing. There are a lot of fears when putting for first baby into daycare, people saying “no one will ever love your baby as much as you or take care of him the way you can” those fears washed away with my experience here. My son entered daycare and would get so excited when we pull into the parking lot every morning. His best friends were Trinity, who he greeted with a smile every day without fail, and Ariel, who kept me well informed and always in the loop on my babies needs. They truly make you feel like part of the family. A special shout out to the owner, Mrs. Cheri, who always answered my stupid questions and Robert who always put up with my teasing. Unfortunately I am leaving Just for Kids as I am moving out of state, however I wanted to thank each and every one of them for truly caring for and loving my child. If you’re contemplating a daycare, look no further, this is the place to be.

This is such a great place! My son loves it here and he loves all of the staff members! The staff is extremely considerate and very well trained to do their jobs. You can tell they genuinely love each child that goes to the daycare and want what's in the best interest for the kids. Its clean, and well organized and they document my child's whole day so I know exactly when and how often he's getting fed and changed. I would recommended this place to anybody looking for a daycare for their child!

We love Just for Kids! Our son was at home until he was 3, and I was worried about his transition to daycare. But Robert really put me at ease with his knowledge of child development on our initial walkthrough. The staff is friendly, and always work with our crazy schedule (Air force and full-time nursing school). Our son has loved going to school over this last year and he loves all of the providers he's had. Highly recommend!

My daughter has been a part of the Just For Kids Family for over year. The staff is outstanding, they gave her extra attention and love while I was deployed. Not your average daycare center, they actually work with the children and help with their homework. One of the best summer programs I have ever seen.

Ran into many problems at my previous daycare so I called this place and Instantly fell in love and my kids started the following week. Great atmosphere, amazing employees. My son is developmentally delayed and they have had many breakthroughs with him and my daughter as well with behavior. Just an amazing place and so friendly. My kids get excited when we pull up to the door that I couldn't imagine them being anywhere else. Also huge bonus they have the credentials that most parents should be looking for when selecting a daycare. ALSO they are an actual learning center not just a building that kids can run wild in. Structure is key and I'm completely sold on this place

As a parent, I entrust my greatest blessing to the staff at Just for Kids every day, and I am grateful for the loving care and guidance my kids receive. The staff look at each child as an individual, with their own strengths, needs and handle them with grace. My son who spends the entire day (afterschool care for daughters) has learned so much and they all continue to share with me the great activities that go on each day at "school!" Thank you to the Just for Kids child care for an incredible early childhood curriculum that engages and teaches at all steps of the day; they continue to do amazing work with all children.

My daughter loves going to "school" at Just for Kids. The teachers are all amazing and very hands on with their learning. They are caring and compassionate, taking the time to teach and educate her on the things that she needs to know for both the real world and when she enters the public education system. Im super happy with my experience.

My daughter is two and has been going since she was an infant. The daycare is family ran with a couple of very wonderful hired staff members. Everybody is very friendly. They are stern, yet gentle and fair with the kids and are easy to communicate with.

Any time I have a concern, I am always able to talk it over and it gets addressed whether it is related to a daycare practice, or behavior my toddler is showing at home.

They always let me know when she needs something. If we forget it, they can usually take care of it temporarily until we get them what she needs. My husband and I have almost unpredictable work schedules and if something comes up at work and I have to get her late or send someone else, they work with me.

They also work with the kids to teach basic skills. I'm not sure what's par for 2 years olds, but mine knows her ABCs, can count to 10, knows her shapes and colors, and can identify letters without making too many mistakes. She has been using full sentences since before she turned two and every day when she comes home, her vocabulary seems to have had some additions made to it. She knows words that I didn't think a 2 year old could learn!

The daycare also teaches the older kids how to garden and make healthy food choices. If you ever drive past them on your way out of town to Boise in the summer, you can see all the tomato and various other plants they have growing along the walkway. Last year, they taught the kids how to make organic ketchup from what they harvested and everyone got to take some home. It was awesome!

I highly recommend them. They are a few dollars more expensive compared to other daycares in town but are worth it. I wouldn't take my daughter to any other daycare in town.
