Kid Country Camps & Breaks is part of a preschool and child care center that includes over an acre of fenced-in playground, cozy classrooms with kid-sized natural wood furnishings, learning centers, adjoining bathrooms, and a veggie garden. The building is standalone with safe onsite parking, luxury plank vinyl flooring, and fresh paint in soothing sage green throughout. The playground is large enough that all children can go outdoors together and still have room to run.
The program includes nut-free snacks in tuition that cater to allergies and sensitivities, along with a healthy, peanut-free food program with an onsite cook. Families receive updates through a parent communication app with photos, videos, activity updates, and classroom announcements.
All staff members hold a current CPR certification. The leadership team includes Founder and Owner Donna Naleway and Expert Quality Coach Miss Meg. Miss Meg has a Master’s in Child and Family Law, Conscious Discipline knowledge, and three decades of experience with children and families, and she previously worked as a child advocate within the Kankakee Child Advocacy Center and in roles within DCFS. Each room has an extra teacher for more personalized care.
Kid Country Camps & Breaks uses restricted access doors that require programmed fobs and has internal-use security cameras throughout the center. Professional cleaners come in every day, and air purifiers and electrostatic sprayers are used.
The center has over 20 years of service to the community. It is an Honorary Illinois ExceleRates Silver Circle of Quality recipient and has been designated ExceleRate Illinois Silver Circle of Quality three consecutive times as the area’s only Illinois ExceleRate Silver Circle awardee. It has also been named Best of Lincoln-Way Readers' Choice in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. Families who register by May 1st receive a free camp T-shirt.
