  I would not recommend this daycare based on my experience. My child has come home mentioning that teachers were being yelled at in front of the children by the center director, which is extremely concerning. A childcare environment should feel calm, safe, and supportive not tense or uncomfortable for children.There appear to be ongoing staffing and supervision issues. Classrooms have been left out of ratio, with one teacher alone with too many children while others step away. I’ve also noticed inconsistency in how policies are enforced. Some staff members are written up for certain behaviors, while others are allowed to do the same without consequences. It feels like rules are only strictly followed when corporate is present.There are also concerns about professionalism and favoritism, especially when family members work together within management. This creates unequal treatment and a lack of accountability.Most concerning are safety issues. I was made aware of an incident where a child was picked up improperly and hit their head. That should never happen in a licensed childcare facility.Concerns have been reported to higher management, including Courtney, who oversees the center director, but no meaningful action appears to have been taken. At this point, I believe corporate should conduct an unannounced visit to see what truly goes on day to day.If these issues are not addressed, I feel it is important for other parents to be aware so they can make informed decisions about their children’s care.

  When my son and I recently returned from a 5 day vacation, he started flapping his arms and kicking his legs in excitement as soon as he saw the KinderCare building. He loves attending a place that provides him with enriching activities and fun experiences. A happy atmosphere with good friends and wonderful teachers!

  My husband works in the area and every day he drives by when the temps have been cold and the wind blowing, he sees the kids outside with no jackets on while the teacher makes sure she is covered up. The playground also is a dangerous accident waiting to happen. Please make sure the kids are actually wearing jackets outside in cold weather.

  If i could do a negative stars i would. There’s one good staff member there, shes with the babies. Most of the staff shows up looking like they havent showered all week. They dont work with the parents at all. The pettyness of the management there is shocking. Do yourself a favor and spend a little more and get actual good care for your children.

  Grimes Kindercare was so welcoming and attentive when bringing my son here for back up care. They took extra great care with feeding and play time. Always update you on feedings, changes, and naps! Everyone knows everyone's name and it shows how much they care.
