My two children attended KinderCare - Greer from mid November 2024 through April 2025. On several of my two children were being sent home for fevers. Ehen I took my children to the doctor immediately after pick up, their temperatures would miraculously drop 2-3° in the hour between when the daycare took it and when the doctors office took it. When I confronted the daycare management about this, they stated “we’re not doctors and cannot explain the change in the temperatures.” I noticed a trend when I would get these calls. It would be when they were over their ratios and they had too many kids. I started asking them to take their temperatures upon pick up with the window in my view. The director at the time (Tina Ashcraft) tried to lie and say a higher temp than what was actually on the screen before pulling the thermometer away from me not realized I saw the actual temp. I called corporate and my kids miraculously stopped having fevers at daycare.
In February my oldest got hurt at daycare. And not just your typical 3 year old “I have a boo boo” and it’s barely a pin prick for a bandaid. His face was severely bruised and bleeding with scrapes from his nose over to the left side of his face. I was not called and told of his injury until SIX HOURS after when I saw the injury for myself. I immediately took him to the assistant director who asked ME what happened. She then said she would have the director call me to discuss the incident. She did not. It made me wonder if abuse was involved. I immediately took him to the doctor theysuggested I report the incident to the state and CYS as the daycare told me I couldn’t view the cameras. CYS viewed the cameras and was able to tell me what happened.
In March, my youngest son was identified as being allergic to oats on contact and slightly during consumption. I told the daycare. On St. Patrick’s day, the daycare celebrated by giving the kids Lucky Charms for breakfast. His teachers picked out the marshmallows from cereal and gave him the marshmallows “because the marshmallows didn’t contain oats and the cereal did”. 😐
A new director (Stephanie) was hired and I was notified by her that I had two weeks to potty train my 3 year old because he was too old for their two year old classroom and needed to be transferred to the preschool room. At that point I was working on it with him, he would do well at home but not there. I was told that if he wasn’t potty trained by the deadline, per the state, he couldn’t attended anymore. The deadline approached and he still didn’t want to work with them. He was no longer allowed to attend (but still expected to pay to keep his spot) because he refused to learn in their transitional two year old room and preschool. I was upset at frustrated and decided to look into it myself. My children attended KinderCare - Greer for 99 days. Of those I didn’t receive a report for over 20 days My oldest had a recorded of 343 diapers. Of those, he was sat on the toilet for potty training 24 times. 20 of those 24 times was during the two week timeline I was given or he couldn’t attend.
End of April I received a phone call from the new daycare director that my son got a hold of oat milk what should they do. Come to find out what actually happened was that the teacher filled a cup with oat milk for the kiddo next to him and placed the cup in front of my son during meal time, my son grabbed it and drank a few sips. I didn’t realize he didn’t have a FARE plan filed with them when I disclosed his allergy. Momma gut kicked in and I immediately left work to pick him up. He had a cough, developed the rash on his face and hives on his back. Took him to the doctor where he needed to be administered an EpiPen and monitor.
I immediately withdrew my children from KinderCare, took off work using PTO for three weeks in May and their dad took off unpaid days for the fourth week of May. I was still expected to pay for the two weeks for my children as the day I was fed up was looked as their notice of withdrawal.

I am a type of person that does not write a review. I will let things go but In this case I am. My son went to daycare here last year at the beginning of the year. I was so excited as this was his first daycare he had ever been to. So naturally he cried when I dropped him off and when I picked him up. I assumed it would stop after a few days and it did not. He would not be changed when picking him up. He cried everyday. He started having behavioral problems which my son was always happy. I took him out and got a letter from a debt collector saying I owed money, well I got it disputed because the time I had proof. I have got another letter in the mail a week ago and because I don’t have everything from last year I am going to have to pay for it. I would not send your child here.

Terrible child care center. Takes a superfluous amount of time picking up your child because the lady’s at the front enjoy making eye contact with you then socializing with their co workers rather than doing their job and bringing your child to you. Their staff is poorly educated and has no clue how to simply work a computer. They don’t understand the basic functions and when my child has a technical issue they’re completely lost although the push of a button is the simple fix. For so much money this terrible center needs an entire new staff. These people look like they’ve never worked a day in their privileged life.

As soon as I come in all the staff members are complaining about wanting to leave early.
The director wasn't welcoming and judged me immediately. One look at me and she knew I wouldn't be able to pay $238 a week for tuition.
