Kids' Work Chicago Too is the second location of Kids' Work Chicago, and offers the same fun, nurturing and safe childcare services as its predecessor. Here, kids are provided with a space to explore and express themselves creatively, learn social interaction skills and the foundations of academic subjects. A low teacher-to-student ratio ensures plenty of personalized attention for each student. Regular communication with parents is also part of the Kids' Work philosophy, and kids are provided with nutritious lunches and snacks. Parents of prospective students are invited to schedule a tour of the facility.
Originally founded in 1978 by a mother-daughter duo in Ann Arbor, Kid's Work Chicago now has two locations in the city of Chicago. Kid's Work Chicago offers infant, toddler, preschool, junior kindergarten and language programs. It provides child care to children as well as lesson plans and a place for creative projects.
