  In February 2025, when my daughter was six months old, she sustained a significant injury while attending the Pinellas KinderCare facility. She suffered a cut to her upper lip that required medical attention, and she experienced projectile vomiting following the incident. When we arrived to pick her up, the teacher informed us that she had “face‑planted” onto a toy. However, earlier that day we had received multiple photos of her playing near that same toy, and in those images she appeared to be several inches away—making the explanation inconsistent with the severity and location of her injury. When we brought our concerns to the center director at the time, Terry McDonald, she initially stated that she was unaware the incident had occurred. However, her signature was already present on the incident report. Her reaction was dismissive and included inappropriate laughter, which made it clear that the situation was not being taken seriously. The injury itself was concerning enough that both a doctor and Child Protective Services became involved, as my daughter had cuts inside her mouth from the blunt force of her jaw snapping shut—despite the fact that she had no teeth at the time. We later enrolled our daughter at the Largo KinderCare location, where the quality of care under Director Tehya Olsen has been excellent. However, we have made the decision to withdraw our daughter from this center as well, effective immediately, due to the announcement that Terry McDonald will be assuming the role of director on Monday, March 16, 2026. Based on our prior experience, we do not feel that our daughter’s safety can be assured under her leadership. For any parent who values the safety and well‑being of their child, I strongly advise caution regarding this facility while Terry McDonald is serving as director.

  I am so thankful for finding this location! The staff are warm and welcoming. At drop off, I saw the center director go outside to help one of the parents bring their child inside while it was raining! It's truly the little things that make a difference and at Largo KinderCare the little things truly matter to the entire staff!

  I can’t stress enough how grateful my family is to have come across this daycare center. All 3 of my children have attended here and I have nothing but great things to say! From the management staff like Ms Tehya, Zoe and Terri to the amazing teachers like Ms Molly and Ms Fallon, they make this center come to life! One teacher in particular in my infant daughter’s class, Ms Destiny is a God send. She treats my daughter like her own and I feel so safe leaving my baby with her. She takes the extra time out of her day to send adorable pictures and updates on the Kindercare app. She comes up with the most adorable art projects for my daughter to do! She goes the extra mile to make the infant care exceptional! Thank you for making us feel like family Ms. Destiny and the rest of the Kindercare staff.
