Using the Experience Early Learning Assessment and Curriculum System, our research-based approach nurtures children through hands-on exploration, play prompts, and social-emotional learning across 8 developmental domains.
This learning process gives children the academic and life skills to thrive now and in the future.
Here are the questions most parents ask when deciding whether to enroll.
Teachers at Kids’ Work meet Illinois state requirements for early childhood education, and every staff member is CPR and First Aid certified and background checked through Illinois DCFS. We invest in ongoing professional development and support long-term growth through programs like CDA sponsorship. Several teachers have been with the center for over nine years, with admin team members serving families for over fifteen.
Kids’ Work follows Illinois Department of Public Health and DCFS requirements to keep children healthy and protected. Children return to group care only after being symptom-free for 24 hours, and both students and staff meet required immunization standards. Classrooms and shared spaces are disinfected daily, and a professional cleaning crew services the center every night.
Kids’ Work maintains a secure environment through the Kisi Keyless Entry System, locked exterior doors, monitored security cameras, and an alarm system connected directly to local police and fire departments. Regular emergency drills cover fire, tornado, intruder, and shelter-in-place scenarios, and all staff are trained in CPR, First Aid, and allergy response.
The best way to experience Kids’ Work is to visit in person.
