  We seriously love this place. From the moment we walked in, we knew our child would be in great hands. The staff is so kind, patient, and clearly loves what they do. Our little one is always excited to go in the morning and comes home happy! They do such a great job keeping the kids engaged with fun activities, learning time, and play. We’ve noticed such a difference in our child’s confidence and development since starting here. Plus, the place is always super clean and feels really safe and welcoming. They’re great at keeping us in the loop with daily updates and pictures, which we really appreciate. It feels so good to know our child is being cared for by people who genuinely care. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a warm, friendly, and reliable daycare!

  As a customer of KinderCare since 2019, I can honestly state that the quality of care has declined significantly since new leadership came in last Summer (2023). Since her hire, the culture of the center has shifted. Staff are not supported and she has created a toxic work environment for staff and parents. She is condescending on the phone and in emails to customers, and then gaslights you when you call her out. As a teacher for 20 years, and having lived through COVID, I know that relationships are the basis of child care and education. The current director does not value relationships between staff or families. In the past few months, so many senior staff left for jobs where they felt supported and happy, leaving new and untrained staff coming in and being with my child. The lack of stability for children was not fair to such young children. The few wonderful teachers left probably won’t stay much longer if they have better opportunities or if they can retire. I am heart broken for my child and other children at our center, as so many of these people have been like family to my children and us since my oldest started there at 4 months in 2019. We tremendously miss the old staff who have left. The drastic changes in the center have directly impacted my child, as she often asks where staff and teachers are because they are here one day and gone the next. I would love to know the total number of parents and staff members who have left the center since June of 2023. I have made multiple attempts to discuss these issues with upper leadership via phone calls and emails, and all have fallen upon deaf ears. Emails have gone unanswered and follow ups via phone have yet to come. I continue to wait to hear back from KinderCare family operations/ upper leadership while we look for other possible options for my child.

  We LOVE Kindercare in Eatontown! It was the first and only daycare I visited when making that very important decision. I knew it was the right place for my little one. Such a warm and welcoming environment- and filled with so much learning! All of the teachers have become family to us! I am so thankful for all of them. It takes a village to raise a child- this is definitely the village you want to be a part of. I highly recommend this center!!

  My son came here for kindergarten during the pandemic and it was the best decision we’ve ever done. The staff here is so incredibly kind, patient and only want the best for the kids in their class. It was also very clean and had great communication with parents about daily activities and what’s going on in class. My son enjoyed coming here every single day. He came home with a smile every single day and couldn’t wait to tell us what he learned. I’ll always be grateful for all the things they have done for my son. He can now read, write, problem solve and has gained so much independence and is ready to conquer 1st grade. Highly recommend.
