  To the amazing teachers of the Octopus class—including Main Teacher Melissa, Ms. Concetta, the other Teacher Melissa, and Teacher Mina (new teacher, so wonderful!)—thank you from the bottom of my heart. I want to give a huge shoutout to the main Teacher Melissa, who has been absolutely wonderful to our baby. She has made all the difference in our journey here. When our baby started at just seven months old, we couldn't have imagined she would be so happy to come to the center every day, now that she is almost 15 months and ready to move up! The photos you all post on the app are so cherished, and the communication has always been kind, professional, and thoughtful. Your care is both personalized and well-structured, and it's clear you're not just teachers—you are raising our baby alongside us. You always listen and respond with such care, and for that, I am incredibly grateful. I couldn't recommend this Palo Alto downtown KinderCare more! A special thank you also goes to Ms. Mery, Cass, and Director Nancy, who are all awesome and amazing. We can't wait for our baby to begin her new class and will share more updates then!

  I cannot imagine a better day care. Our daughter is now enrolled for 2 years and she is so happy at KinderCare. Passing through 3 classrooms we have experienced several care takers. All were super qualified and very devoted to the children. And it really shows in the happiness of the children. Our daughter loves going to Kindercare and we love taking her to KinderCare. The daycare is extremely well managed and there is such a nice and positive atmosphere.

  I joined the wait list before my daughter was born. Cassandra worked with us. We learned a half a year later that there was one step in the process that wasn't completed. We asked if Cassandra could put us back on the waitlist from the date we first went through the process. Cassandra had no sympathy. Since then, we've been waiting to come off the waitlist. We know others who were taken off the waitlist even from application after we were properly in the system. We've called KinderCare several times, but been blown off. There has been no follow up from them. Overall, this was a bad experience.

  Great care. My kids love the teachers, and they are learning more than I thought possible.
