Kidz Korner Learning Center (Kidz Korner) in Laurel, Maryland Temporarily Closed Due to Unforeseen Circumstances

Laurel, Maryland – Kidz Korner, a trusted provider of quality childcare services, announces the temporary closure of its facility due to unforeseen circumstances. The company understands the impact this may have on families and apologizes for the inconvenience.

The reasons for the temporary closure are as follows:

• A Conflict in Ownership: There is currently a dispute in ownership of the building where Kidz Korner operates. The case is in litigation in the Prince George’s County Court system, and Kidz Korner is working closely with its attorneys to resolve the matter as quickly as possible.

• Change of Building Ownership: In November 2021, the building where Kidz Korner operates was sold to a church. Prior to the sale, Kidz Korner had the right of succession as the occupant of the building. However, the sellers did not allow Kidz Korner to bid on the building, and the company was not given any opportunity to purchase it.

• Legal Action in Progress: Kidz Korner has been in contact with its attorneys, who have confirmed that the litigation is still pending. The company is taking all necessary steps to ensure that the matter is resolved as soon as possible.

• Sudden Eviction: On April 7, 2023, Kidz Korner received an unexpected visit from the Prince George’s Sheriff Department, which informed the company that it must vacate the building immediately. The company requested paperwork to validate the eviction but was not provided with any.

Kidz Korner understands the frustration and disappointment that parents and guardians may feel due to the temporary closure. However, the company is committed to providing high-quality childcare services to the community and is doing everything possible to reopen as soon as possible. 

Kidz Korner would like to leave you with a motivational quote from Maya Angelou: “We may encounter many defeats, but we must not be defeated.” We are taking this quote to heart and are doing everything in our power to overcome this setback.

Kidz Korner thanks parents and guardians for their patience and understanding during this time. The company will provide updates on its progress in resolving the situation.

Sincerely,

Kimberly Cooper

Owner/CEO
