  Teachers don’t clean their rooms thoroughly they also yell at the kids and constantly threaten them. My daughters come home feeling embarrassed almost every day. Teachers are constantly quitting. Kids are constantly put into classrooms that their families aren’t paying for. My 3 year old was in a PRE K class for weeks for months. Money scam.

  My son hated it here. Caregivers are mean, power-tripping control freaks. Must be nice, having no advanced career skills, and getting paid to yell at kids all day long, while the rest of us actually work for a living. My friend sent her son here 20 years ago and said it was the same back then. Guess some things never change.

  Our 3-year-old has been at KinderCare for about six months now, and it has been such a wonderful experience. From day one, the teachers and staff have made him feel comfortable, supported, and excited to learn. Mrs. Ashley, the director, is truly amazing—she has such a passion for the kids and always makes sure families feel heard and cared for. She’s easily one of our favorite parts of this center. When our son started in the Discovery Preschool room, Ms. Alex was his teacher, and she was incredible at helping him settle into daycare for the first time. He warmed up to her right away, and her kindness made such a difference. Since moving up to the Preschool room, Ms. Destiny and Ms. Lexie have been just as wonderful—patient, encouraging, and so good with the kids. I also love that KinderCare really focuses on both learning and play. It’s not just a free-for-all; the structure and activities are intentional and fun. The phonics classes especially have blown me away—our son is already sounding out words and even reading a few simple ones, which I never expected at this age! The whole facility is clean, welcoming, and filled with staff who clearly love what they do. I honestly couldn’t imagine a better place for our child, and we are so thankful to have found it.

  When you leave your child with essentially a stranger, it’s a scary feeling but when I drop my daughter off at Kindercare in Gig Harbor, it’s like dropping her off with family. I have no worries that she will be taken care of and will be happy. We get regular updates during the day, photos of what they’re doing, little gifts here and there of projects they are working on! How amazing is that! It’s all in an app too so everything is in one place and so easy to use! They say it takes a village to raise a child and I’m so happy to have this team as part of my family!

  Absolutely love this facility and company. We are a military famuky. When we got orders to this area, the first thing I did was search fir a KinderCare, as we had been with the company in Virginia and love it and the people so much. I was presently suprised to find the Gig Harbor location. Both the director and assistant director are fabulous, as well as the wonderful teachers they have. I highly recommend these facility for daycare. I have 4 children and all of them have grown up with this company.
