Kids' Work Chicago Riverview

We are so thankful to have found Kids Work. From day one, everyone we've interacted with has been professional, thoughtful, and clearly passionate about children. Ms. Leidy, Ms. Dina, and Ms. Lissete feel more like surrogate aunties than teachers. We receive a delightful stream of messages and pictures everyday detailing just how much our daughter loves and is growing from her time with them. My daughter is thriving because of the team here.

We are so grateful to be able to send our daughter to such a loving daycare! The Kids Work team is phenomenal - everyone from the admin team, to our daughter's primary teachers to the support staff has been nothing but kind and warm to us. Our daughter started at KWCR at 6 months and has never once cried at drop off which speaks volumes. She always has a huge smile when we pull into the parking lot and when she sees her teachers. I can't thank the amazing, dedicated teachers in Oakley enough for their wonderful care. Ms. Leidy, Ms. Dina, and Ms. Lissete all clearly love what they do and it's so clearly transferred to the children they take care of every day. We're so lucky to have them in our daughter's village! Thank you Kids Work team for all you do.

Kids’ Work Chicago has been amazing for our son. The teachers are caring and genuinely invested in every child’s growth — a special thank you to Lindsey, who has been incredible since day one, and to Mr. Eduardo in Southport. The outdoor playground is a huge hit, and our son has grown so much socially and developmentally since joining. Highly recommend!

The kids work folk were so amazing to our son and we were very sad to leave them when we left. Miss Karla was with him from 4 months old and still went to visit him while he was in his toddler classroom. She was amazing! Mr Alton and Miss Thedora were so great to our son in his toddler room that my wife had them in tears on the last day picking up our son. All the teachers and staff were top notch and will be missed in our lives.

Our experience with Kids Work Chicago has been nothing short of exceptional. As parents, finding a place where your child feels safe, nurtured, and genuinely cared for is everything—and Kids Work delivers that and more. From the moment we walked through the doors, we were greeted with warmth, professionalism, and a true sense of community. The staff is incredibly attentive, communicative, and clearly passionate about early childhood development. They treat each child as an individual, celebrating their unique personalities and encouraging their growth in thoughtful, creative ways. Our child has blossomed in this environment—socially, emotionally, and intellectually. The curriculum is engaging and age-appropriate, blending play with learning in a way that keeps our little one excited to go to school every day. We also appreciate the regular updates, photos, and insights into our child’s day, which help us feel connected and reassured. We’re so grateful to the entire team at Kids Work Chicago for creating a space that feels like an extension of our home. It’s clear they put their hearts into everything they do, and it makes all the difference.
