  My son attended this daycare from the time he was 6 weeks old until he was 18 months old, so making the decision to leave was incredibly difficult. I was nervous about changing daycares because it was all he had ever known. However, after spending a month at his new daycare, the difference has been night and day, and it has confirmed that leaving was the right decision for our family. Throughout our time here, there were ongoing concerns regarding neglect and supervision that appeared repeatedly in incident reports. When I asked for clarification, teachers were often unable to explain what had happened or how the incidents occurred. I escalated my concerns through multiple levels of management, including the Regional Director, but unfortunately I did not see meaningful changes or improvements. I want to be clear that the teachers themselves were always kind, caring, and sweet with my son. My concerns are not with the classroom staff. Rather, the issue seems to stem from upper leadership and operational management. There were frequent instances where child-to-teacher ratios appeared stretched or not adequately maintained, creating an environment where teachers were unable to provide the level of attention and care that children deserve. I genuinely feel that the staff were being set up to struggle due to circumstances outside of their control. Since moving to a new daycare, my son has shown tremendous growth, receives more individualized attention, and is thriving in ways that I now realize were missing before. Looking back, I regret not making the change sooner. While there are wonderful teachers here who clearly care about the children, leadership and staffing practices ultimately prevented the center from providing the level of care and developmental support that my son needed. As a parent, it is difficult to realize after the fact that your child may not have been receiving the environment they deserved. I trusted this center with my son during some of the most important stages of his early development, and I wish I had recognized the issues and made the transition sooner.

  Daycare in general ended up not being a good fit for our son, but I can't speak highly enough about the people and the structure they have set up here. They really go out of their way to create a loving and developmentally enriching environment.

  Our daughter has been at KinderCare full time for the past 15 months and we've had an excellent experience! We're prepping her for PK4 at our sons school for the sake of convenience, and are sad to be leaving KinderCare. Her teachers were always so warm and loving, and she learned so much at her time there. She became a total social butterfly and loved doing all the "extra" things like Zumba, soccer and cooking classes. She enjoyed the teachers and her little friends very much. I really love that they offer a curriculum program for toddlers, rather than just treat it like a daycare, and that it's offered a full-time schedule for families who have two working parents. I see the other reviews about not trusting the teachers -- but we had the opposite experience. We even had asked for one of the teachers information so she could watch our daughter on off-hours.
