Kate is absolutely amazing, she is knowledgeable, and so so great with the kids. I’m beyond grateful to have found Hedgies and so is my toddler. Just cannot say enough good things about Kate and the space she has created at Hedgies. A true blessing for my toddler to have a safe and fun place to learn, explore and enjoy! Thank you again so much Kate 🩵

Home away from home!! Katelyn created such a beautiful and thoughtful space for all children (Italian or not) in the heart of Vicenza. She is so naturally talented with children. Our boy has been going to Hedgie’s 2-3x a week for almost a year and he still continues to love it ❤️

Io e il mio bambino di 2 anni siamo stati molto felici di passare del tempo insieme, ci divertiamo sempre molto e katelyn è davvero molto brava con i bambini.

Esperienza fantastica a Hedgie’s!! Katelyn è super: attenta allo sviluppo a 360 gradi, alle emozioni dei bambini crea un ambiente sicuro e stimolante! Una delle cose che ho apprezzato di più è la dimensione ridotta dei gruppi, che permette un'attenzione individualizzata da parte degli adulti.

Esperienza fantastica a Hedgie’s!! Katelyn è super: attenta allo sviluppo a 360 gradi, alle emozioni dei bambini crea un ambiente sicuro e stimolante! Una delle cose che ho apprezzato di più è la dimensione ridotta dei gruppi, che permette un'attenzione individualizzata da parte degli adulti. Questo ha consentito a mia figlia di interagire con gli altri bambini in un ambiente non troppo sovrastimolante, favorendo una socializzazione serena e naturale. Lo spazio del daycare è meravigliosamente organizzato con attività pensate per incoraggiare gli interessi dei bambini. Questo ha motivato mia figlia a partecipare attivamente e ad imparare con entusiasmo. Ottima opportunità per imparare la lingua inglese giocando. ( Katelyn capisce e parla anche l’italiano!) Non potrei essere più grata a Katelyn per l'attenzione e la cura dedicate al benessere e allo sviluppo di mia figlia. Less

Fin dal primo giorno, ho notato quanto l'ambiente fosse accogliente e quanto Katelyn fosse disponibile e preparata. Oltre che essere preparata è super competente, ma anche appassionata e capace di coinvolgere davvero i miei figli che non solo stanno migliorando nell’ inglese ma stanno anche sviluppando competenze sociali e interculturali importanti.

Oltre che essere preparata è super competente, ma anche appassionata e capace di coinvolgere davvero i miei figli che non solo stanno migliorando nell’ inglese ma stanno anche sviluppando competenze sociali e interculturali importanti. Vedo che stanno crescendo con una mentalità aperta e una maggiore consapevolezza del mondo che li circonda e poi ogni giorno c'è qualcosa di nuovo e interessante da fare, e questo aiuta molto a mantenere alta la motivazione e l'entusiasmo dei ragazzi. Consiglio vivamente Less

We had a fantastic experience in the “Little Social Butterflies” group at Hedgies Huddle. Our 2 year old son spent three mornings a week at Hedgies playing & exploring with new friends. Katelyn is absolutely wonderful and is a true professional with great wisdom & experience - the kids adore her and she’s a great resource for parents as well. The group is small by design so she is able to keep them engaged in a fun & playful way that is tailored to each of their individual needs. Our son has improved his emotional regulation and gained confidence - it’s been incredible to see him develop under her care. The space itself is beautifully designed - an oasis for the little ones. Highly recommend! Less

Hedgies Huddle Daycare has been a blessing for our family. It has taken me time to write this review because words can not describe how grateful we are to know Katelyn.

Hedgies Huddle Daycare has been a blessing for our family. It has taken me time to write this review because words can not describe how grateful we are to know Katelyn. In Hedgies, my girls feel safe, encouraged, they have developed creative skills, communication, they have grown to be confident in themselves, and mostly, they have developed their relationship as sisters. Katelyn has so many skills, even with me. Every time I feel welcomed, not judged as a parent, and confident that my kids are safe and learning by playing. Both my girls love Katelyn and going on adventures to Hedgies. They will always ask “mommy when are we coming back” minutes after picking them up. I can keep going on, but please just give Hedgies a try I promise you will not regret it 🫶🏼 Less

My daughter absolutely LOVED going to Hedgie’s Huddle over the summer. Katelyn is amazing and had some really great activities planned each week for camp. HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking to get their little one into a structured but so so fun social setting!

5 out of 5 stars ⭐️ This daycare is the perfect safe and engaging place for children to learn and express themselves. My son has a speech delay which causes social interaction struggles with other children his age. Katelyn has encouraged and created a wonderful routine, including visuals and vocal cues to foster the communication for all her children to learn together! My son also loves the connection to nature she has set up throughout the daycare and mindfully included in the outdoor playground area for perfect sensory play! We are so thrilled to have found such a safe and enjoyable environment for our son to thrive. I recommend this be your first stop on the search for child care! Less

Ho conosciuto questo posto tramite passaparola ed è stata una splendida scoperta! È tutto a misura di bambino, pulito, curato e Katelyn è estremamente disponibile, professionale, e riesce ad essere amorevole con i bambini. Intrattiene con attività e coinvolge i genitori con foto o aggiornamenti. Super super super consigliato!

This places is 5⭐️ ‘s. Our 4year old loved her time on Hedgies. The staff, the facilities and the activities were wonderful. Highly recommended 🤍

My kids have the best time at Hedgies! Katelyn is an incredible instructor who genuinely cares about the kids in her care! She is very professional, detail orientated and she strives to make every day a personalized experience for each child. She has a very clean and appealing location as well as beautifully thought out themes for each week. There has never been a day where my kids have said that... More
