  I’m extremely disappointed with the KinderCare Mission Grove Center. As an African American parent, I feel my child has been unfairly treated — and I’m not the only one. Another Black mother is going through the same thing. The staff constantly calls within an hour of drop-off asking for my 4-year-old to be picked up, as if parents don’t have jobs or responsibilities. When I can’t immediately come, they get an attitude. Are child development classes not a requirement for staff? I also paid for soccer classes that my child wasn’t even allowed to participate in because they insisted he be picked up “immediately.” They constantly complain about my child’s behavior, yet when other children hit him, there are no consequences for them. My son even apologized to Ms. Denise, and she refused to accept it — how is that setting a good example for a preschooler? After paying for a full week of care, I was told my child could no longer return. Will there be a refund for the unused days and soccer fees? The lack of professionalism, empathy, and fairness is unacceptable. I truly hope KinderCare looks into the biased treatment happening at this location.

  Do not recommend this location for child care. Child came back sick 80 percent of the time. The front desk was not manned at least half the time. The front door was stuck open for like a week combined with a lack of people manning the front desk presented a significant safety issue. Ratio for under 2 is supposed to be 4 to 1 but we dropped of many times where our son would be the 9th or 10th child and still only 2 teachers. Our son got bit several times and in our experience they don't know how to deal with these situations. This led to our son picking up a biting habit in order to defend himself and the teachers just did not do anything to correct the behavior. When asked for more information regarding the altercation, all they would say is that he bit for no reason. However, when we would sit in to observe the class another child would sit on him so he would bite in defense, and that was their idea of "for no reason". His speech teacher observed him trying to solve a puzzle by himself in a corner unattended, he asked for help several times and was ignored until he screamed and threw the puzzle piece, and then he was yelled at for yelling. The director was too scared to say anything to me and would always wait until my wife picked up to say anything bad about him. They just lack the ability to provide the amount of attention a child needs and don't have the proper tools to diffuse situations. The teachers lack basic training to effectively teach children acceptable behaviors, which is compounded by a lack of sufficient staffing.

  Love love love this daycare and the workers who care for my daughter ! It is clean and they have very high standards and maintain these standards . I feel very safe to leave my child in their care. They keep my baby busy with fun learning activities and have her on a feeding and sleeping schedule. I also receive updates throughout the day on my child to help ease my mind. Worth every penny .
