Meet Our Leadership

Muriel Yeboah
– Owner

Hello!! I’m Muriel Yeboah, proud owner of Midlothian Kids Academy. I have a double Master’s degree in Geography and Business Administration as well as a Ph.D in Geography. I am an educationist who taught from middle through tertiary institutions for over two decades. My husband John is a physician and has been serving the Richmond/Chesterfield community for over 12 years. We have lived in Midlothian, Chesterfield for over 12 years and now calls it home. From our own experience as working parents, my husband and I know how difficult it can be to find quality childcare that works for both parents and children. It is out of this experience that Midlothian Kids Academy came into existence. We have five children of our own in different generation groups from eight to thirty years.

The first time I met the director-Ms. Mrylin, I realized that she is very enthusiastic about early childhood education and also passionate about creating an inclusive environment for the kids. The staff at MKA are loving, caring and professional. I have seen great progress in my son's speech and social skills since he started MKA.

We love love love Midlothian Kids Academy. I am a first time (anxious) mommy I was so nervous to return to work. Every concern I have had has been handled with respect and kindness. Miss Jasmine and Ms Aliah are like second mommies to my son. Ms. Anne and Ms Netta are so kind answering all of my questions and allowing me to call all the time to check in on my child. 🙂

Even when my son had medical complications, the staff at MKA went above And beyond helping him. Thank you and we love everyone at Midlothian Kids Academy.

My family recently moved to Midlothian and were looking for a day care for our young children. We were recommended to Midlothian Kids Academy and proceeded to tour the place and we loved it. Very pleased with what we saw and the teachers were very kind, especially, Ann was very nice to take us around and helped with all our questions.

I would definitely recommend Midlothian Kids Academy to anyone with young children. Professional staff and secure place.

The administrator and teachers truly, genuinely love all the children in their care. To say I recommend Midlothian Kids Academy is an understatement. My husband and I trust MKA with our most precious gift, our 3 year old son. ❤

We have been going here for about a year now and have nothing but wonderful things to say. My 2 year old knows numbers, colors and letters and they have basically potty trained him. He loves to go and always points and asks if he can go "play." The director Anne is absolutely amazing and I hope she never leaves!! She even let my kindergartener come for free for an afternoon so that I could rest one day when I was 9 months pregnant. They truly care about your child and it shows.
