"Where Children Are Hugged First, Then Taught."

General Info
Are you considering childcare for your baby, toddler, or preschool-age child? As a mother, Ive been in your shoes. It isnt an easy decision. For many parents, it boils down to "Are the owners of the school on site?" In our case, Kevin and I are here every single day. We are so proud to be part of a larger Kids 'R' Kids family because it gives us access to cutting-edge curriculum like Brainwaves, rigorous training for our staff, and technology assets like ABC Mouse and WatchMeGrow. Even so, as parents, we would not send our children to a preschool without committed and visionary leadership. So let me tell you about our journey and our philosophy, so you can evaluate if Kids 'R' Kids RTP is the right fit for your family. The Journey To Owning a Preschool I was a stay-at-home mother with three boys. My house was the hub where all the children gathered and played. One day, my neighbors, Brooks and Julie Moye invited me to become a partner in the childcare business. As an interior designer, I did not understand why they would think I could run a preschool. They explained that though I did not have a preschool background, my management experience and love for children had prepared me well for the job. The Moyes and I partnered for many years and I'm grateful they saw my potential. Being a Kids 'R' Kids co-owner with the Moyes has been a truly rewarding experience. The road to excellence has not been an easy one for us. When we bought Kids 'R' Kids RTP seven years ago, we understood the challenges that lay ahead, we saw our goal very clearly: to provide a safe, nurturing, and academically-advanced preschool to the hard-working parents who work in Research Triangle Park, Raleigh, and Durham. Our center is approximately 17,000 square feet with 11 classroom suites, a cafeteria, a resource room, a large activity gym for before and after school students, and 4 large play areas separated for age groups. At Kids 'R' Kids RTP, we share a common desire with parents, which is to provide the absolute best for the children. Our high quality teachers, creative and fun educational programs and, of course, our state-of-the-art facility are some of the reasons why parents sign up right after they come in for a tour. My mission every single day is to live up to the compliment we received from a grateful father as he dropped his daughter off to Kids 'R' Kids: "Lynn, when I leave my precious child at Kids 'R' Kids RTP, I feel like I'm dropping her off with my sister. Yes, I want her to learn and grow academically. But you know why I drive away happy? Because I'm leaving her in the loving environment that feels like home." Want to meet us in person?
