  Disclaimer: My child was with them for a year and a half from infant to toddler. This review is based off comparison to my child who is now 4 months in his new school. PROS: + Best teachers from infant-toddler: Ms. Alma, Ms. Caitlin & Ms. Susan. Our absolute #1 is Ms. Alma. + Convenience of time. 6:30 am till 6:00 pm. CONS: - POOR TEACHER TO STUDENT RATIOS. In the toddler classes, it is (1:12-16) 1 teacher to 12-16 students at a time. Teachers were often overwhelmed & stressed. My child was often placed in different classes throughout the day to accommodate staffing & had multiple different or teachers rotating throughout the day. Not conducive for stability. Now we are at a school that's 1:4 ratio. - EXPENSIVE TUITION. Tuition based is not worth the price for the poor student to teacher ratio. We were paying almost $500 a week with them. - AT RISK FOR GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT DELAY (GDD). Due to poor staffing ratios, my child often was placed in the infant room for extended periods of time till I address it. - NO AUTISM INCLUSION. Most of the teachers weren't inclusive to autism. Center director basically told us that he needed 1:1 ABA while at the center. I can tell you now that he is in a class where it's 12 students & 1:4 ratio, he is absolutely thriving without 1:1. - SICK ALL THE TIME. My child literally had hand foot mouth disease and/or a cough/cold every 2-3 months. It was frequent to the point my child was in urgent care often. At the new school, my child has only gotten sick once & not gotten HFMD. - FREQUENT INJURY OCCURRENCE. My child has gotten bitten or bruised frequently. There is one incident that my child had a bruise on forehead that lasted for days. As a nursing professional myself, the bruise was atypical & unacceptable. They had no explanation, did not notify us parents and or even witnessed the incident. Investigator by community care licensing stated they did not violate anything. OVERALL: We absolutely loved the teachers we mentioned. However, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL. Our telltale sign was that our child was nonverbal, had global development delay & would have meltdowns going into the toddler classroom. Within 1 month of our child in the new school, our child is thriving, speaking, and is now meeting developmental milestones. Absolutely loves going to the new school. Please look at community care licensing complaints they've had. We wished we knew this before he was even enrolled in there. We strongly believe the teachers deserves better ratios, better implementation on cleaning & infection control practices...just everything.

  This KinderCare has been amazing to all my children. I have been with them since 2018 I believe, and their team is great. Mrs. Blanca, who is the director, is always helpful with any questions I have or concerns. My new baby who started when she was a little before 2 years old, loves and enjoys coming here. Mrs. Lupe is her teacher now and is amazing along with the others who help direct her class and educate our children. Mrs. Lupe speaking Spanish to my little one is also amazing because it expands her speech and helps her become more fluent in both languages. Also, when she was in the infant's class all the teachers were amazing and loving! I don't trust any other daycare with my children, and I have never had to try or experience other because this has been it for my little family. Thank you all for what you do for my littles! May God bless you all and your families. :) -Kasandra W
