  After two years with our daughter here, we discovered that the center director was receiving money from a private research lab in exchange for having children participate in product testing and research, without providing informed consent to parents or passing the compensation to families whose children participated. She admitted to all of this. After confronting the director about this, she responded in a passive aggressive way, and indicated that we simply misunderstood it. I did not and do not misunderstand. What she was doing was unethical and potentially put children in danger. We can't really know for sure, because informed consent was never provided. Despite her admissions, there was never any accountability or apology. She admitted to it in the context that she felt she had done nothing wrong. During our daughter's time with KinderCare, communication was generally terrible. There were times when we would go to drop our child off, and a complete stranger would be in the room, apparently a new teacher, with no announcement or notice of any change. "Events" were lackluster and underwhelming. There is clearly substantial contempt between the leadership and staff. It's visible and palpable. This was clear by how much turnover happened during this period. We witnessed visible eyerolls and exasperated sighs from leadership when teachers would make simple requests. I really do need to give a shout out to the teachers here, however. They are simply wonderful, caring humans that generally go above and beyond. It's a shame that they don't have better leadership. Steer very clear of Downingtown KinderCare.

  Our child has had a wonderful experience here over the past 4 years, all thanks to his amazing teachers! From taking care of him as a shy little baby, supporting potty training routines, growing his confidence, and helping him be a reader ready for kindergarten; everyone had been great. Many thanks to all!

  It is a blessing to have the knowledgeable and kind, patient teachers at this KinderCare. My son asks to see his teachers even on weekends because they are like family. They provide structure and education that I haven’t found anywhere else. They have resources and support first time parents like myself, always open for discussions and communication with my son’s learning and engagement. Highly recommend.

  Our daughter has attended this daycare for 4 years now and I feel that overall, the experience has been positive. The staff and teachers have been very friendly, knowledgeable, and I feel safe leaving my kid there. There is good communication about how things are going, what is being taught, and any incidents that happen. The app is a must when enrolled since you get messages and pictures during the day and any messages sent in through the app are responded to promptly.
