Kid's University Preparatory Learning Center II is a center-based provider at 1599 Kingswood Dr in Cedar Hill, TX, serving infants through school age with an emphasis on academic preparation for elementary rigor. The center maintains a 109-child capacity and offers a well-rounded support package including subsidies, drop-in care, after-school programming, and transportation—making it accessible for working families with multiple children. The administrator brings substantial credentials including a Master's degree and over 25 years of experience, and state-licensed teachers lead infant and toddler classes. The center's hands-on curriculum emphasizes language, math, science, and foundational skills through songs, circle time, and center-based activities, with age-appropriate supports like potty training and monthly science projects for preschoolers. Two high-severity HHSC deficiencies noted in the inspection record and earlier closing hours (5:30 PM) compared to peer programs in the area are practical considerations worth verifying in person.
