Before choosing Clock Tower Kids, I did quite a bit of research on after-school programs.  I was very impressed by the staff, who have chosen child care as a career, not just a job.  My son has been a Clock Tower Kid for five years, and the staff has done exactly what I had hoped:  They have helped instill positive values and guided him in his interactions with other children and adults…and they have been there to help with homework, too!  It is a comfort to know that he is in such good hands and having so much fun while we are at work.  My son is so happy at CTK that he doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day!

Our family feels very lucky to have found such a nurturing, family-style environment.  Children have a guided homework time, which is very important—especially given today’s time constraints.  More than that, the staff members offer guidance and provide excellent crafts and activities, as well as things to do outside of the building, in or out of town.  We like the camaraderie, the attention to creating a loving environment, and the overall peace of mind we have while our children are in their care.  Oh, yes…rather important:  The kids enjoy, it too!

My son has gained so many valuable skills in dealing with other kids—not only his peers, but also those younger and older than he is.  And extra training in manners has certainly been a bonus!

CTK has provided a warm and loving environment to both of my children from kindergarten onward.  I really like how the older and younger kids interact and support each other.  It lends a family-like quality to the program.

My children have been attending CTK for many years.  If you were to ask them, I know the field trips are their favorite part of the program.  However, as a parent, my favorite part is knowing that the same principles we emphasize at home are being fostered at CTK.  The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the children are happy when I arrive to pick them up.  As a busy family, it is also extremely helpful that homework is done at the program.

One of my son’s favorite parts of CTK is the bus ride from school.  It is like one big, happy family on wheels—headed toward everyone’s favorite part of the day!

My daughter was having a bit of difficulty at school dealings with a couple of her girlfriends.  The staff at CTK took the time to listen to her, and helped her find a way to turn the situation around.  I was wondering where she had gotten such good advice!

My son has many friends he would not have met if he had not attended Clock Tower Kids.  It is great that kids have a jump on friendships they might have had to wait until middle or high school to make!
