Being part of Akers gives you an opportunity to watch children grow and develop into their own personalities. We offer so many great learning experiences while also reaching age appropriate milestones. I’ve learned to understand that Akers is like a second home to most of these kids and that is why we as teachers need to provide a nurturing and safe environment for all the children here. Something that they provide here that not every daycare provides is free childcare. It is super helpful to not have to worry where your child will go when you have to work. It is honestly a win win situation. Your child is in great care while you are also providing excellent care to other children, They are also super understanding with any appointments you need during the day whether it may be for yourself or your child. That is another bonus for me while working here.

Management help and encourage to reach my goals. They give you the tools to move up and get better with your children and teaching skills. Super flexible with time and let you have time for personal family appointments. I feel comfortable to share my ideas. Take consideration about what we would like and how we want things done. I feel heard and not ignored
