At the South Arlington Heights KinderCare, we believe our teachers and staff make the difference.
The majority of our teachers have completed a Child Development Associate, a Bachelor's Degree, or a Master's Degree.
Continuing education for our teachers is an important part of ensuring our students receive the best education.
Many of our teachers are enrolled in additional college coursework, and all of our teachers attend additional training and development each year.
KinderCare devotes more time and resources to teacher training than any other childcare provider.
Twice a year we host the largest early childhood teacher training program in the country.
Our teachers are dedicated to developing your child's potential and are sensitive to your child's individual needs.
