Courtney Bigness

Kidz Korner After-School and Summer Camp Director Courtney Bigness My name is Courtney Bigness. I grew up in the Albany area and attended the College of Saint Rose, where I received a B.S. in Childhood Education. After graduation, I spent five years teaching middle school math and science as well as coaching and moderating different clubs. I joined the Kidz Korner family in the summer of 2020.

Working with children is my passion and I am thrilled to be able to continue to do that at Kidz Korner as the director of the After School Program and Summer Camp. I look forward to planning new and exciting activities! In my spare time, I enjoy traveling whenever possible, reading, and cuddling my golden retriever, Kingsley.

Kidz Korner Guilderland After School

"... We have been with Kidz Korner since our daughter was 9 months old. The staff is very dedicated to making sure that we always feel welcomed and provide a positive environment. We will be sad leaving after Pre-K. We have gotten to know a lot of the teachers over the years."

"... Kidz Korner is a positive environment; from decoration to the caregivers. The teachers are friendly and caring!"
~ Bo

via Latham Child Care Center
"... I just wanted to send a sincere thank you to you and the wonderful woman who gave us the tour yesterday, Alyssa. We've been to a lot of daycares, and yours is the one we feel most comfortable at. You both had us at the front door, when you wanted to see and engage with Olivia. You may be surprised that many of the other places did not find that as important as I do. We want a loving, caring, fun, safe space for her, if she can't be home with us, and it seems that you and your team have that."
