    Believe the negative post, the place has become terrible over the span of 10 months due to new management and staff. They are getting new parents to leave positive post without them actually knowing everything that’s happening. Management is terrible, even the desk people and their are teachers who will be sleeping or on their phones watching your children just giving them the iPad to not have to interact with them. I have called and asked about the negative reviews and they act like they don’t know why or what you are asking about

    KinderCare Berkley is a wonderful daycare. My son has aged out but had a wonderful experience and is excelling in elementary school now. My daughter is in preK now and has THE BEST teacher who is welcoming and really cares about each and every one of her students. The director is kind and caring and we are very happy with care we have received.

    A majority of the reviews are posted by ex-staff (using fake names and accounts - I would be weary to hire those involved, so check resumes!) in an attempt to sabotage the center. We are incredibly disappointed in the individuals looking to defame, discredit the daycare and they should be ashamed of themselves for retaliating in such an immature way versus staying at the center and being a part of the change. We support our teachers and the center staff! Our daughter is now attending and we are impressed by the staff in the infant rooms. Each child has a separate crib cubby, the teachers are wonderful with her care, drop offs are easy since we are not required to bring diapers, wipes, etc. Our son LOVES Berkley KinderCare! We have had such a great experience with the teachers, staff, and love that the new facility has a gym for the kids to run around on rainy / cold days, the rooms are equipped with kid size toilets awesome for potty training, the app gives me assurance to throughout the day to see what my son and his friends are up to - and the facility literally provides everything (wipes, diapers, food, sheets, etc). We love KinderCare!

    I never write a negative review unless it is absolutely necessary, and under these circumstances, it's more than necessary. My Godson and his brother have been attending KinderCare. Both boys have food allergies that cannot be taken lightly whatsoever. If given any of their trigger foods, they can go into anaphylactic shock and it can become a life and death situation if not treated immediately. Under the new management of Sarah and Pam, both boys have been put into extremely dangerous situations, due to negligence on the school's and staff's part. On more than one occasion, both children were given food that they were allergic to. On top of that, their live saving allergy medication was tampered with at the school, so if another incident were to happen, the medicine and devices would not be able to be used and there might not have been any time to get to the hospital. I hope that for anyone reading this, you can understand the severity of this situation. Though I do not like to speak poorly of anyone, I simply cannot fathom how Sarah and Pam are still employed by KinderCare. It is their responsibility to oversee all operations, which includes the safety of each child. They clearly have neglected this duty and instead, brush off the very real concerns of the parents as though this is a minor situation, which it is NOT! This is not a complaint about minor issues......this is the fact that they are putting children directly in harm's way and have done nothing to rectify or take this issue seriously. The instances that have occurred at KinderCare have been very traumatic for the boys, as well as their parents. Again, let me remind you that these were real LIFE AND DEATH situations. To say it's disappointing is an understatement. It's a disgrace!! Please, please do not send your children here. It is not a supportive or safe environment, not to mention the rapid turn over rate of teachers now.
