  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.

  My 2.5 old has been attending kindercare for the last year or so (second kiddo of mine to be enrolled here). Kindercare has been an amazing home away from home for both of my kiddos. We absolutely love ALL of the staff. Communication is amazing and we love to get our daily updates on the app. Shout out to Ms Jericha, teacher Kai, Ms Samantha, and Ms Ashley! ! We appreciate everyone there! I would definitely recommend kindercare to my friends and family.

  Absolutely the worst! My daughter has lost three jobs due to them not being able to staff the place! They come up with every excuse to not watch a child. She has to be there by 10am and has to call every day to say she is coming. My daughter has dshs and they charge her a copay but they will not work with you if you’re late paying they assess a late fee the same as her copay so she has to pay two months tuition for her to be able to attend. My daughter is a single mom of two and has had no support from this daycare! I have had to quit my jobs in order to help her because Kindercare does not care about you or your families struggling financially.

  I have been very impressed with the loving, caring, and patient care the teachers and staff have shown my 11 month old daughter. My baby has thrived with the social interactions with other kids. She also enjoys fun activities that are organized weekly, specially water day. My daughter really struggles with naps and the tenderness and patience the staff showed her when she is having a full meltdown is really impressive.She is particularly fond of their director, and many times you would find my baby snuggled up in her arms. It was the only way she would sleep in the first few days! The entire daycare staff has been really organized and taking all the necessary precautions to ensure the safety of the students during COVID. They are truly doing a really great job, especially considering the current circumstances. We have had a great experience, thank you KinderCare!
