  We love South Seattle KinderCare. I have two children who have both been enrolled since they were babies and they are so happy there. The director, Ms. Nan, started there shortly after our oldest started and she has transformed the center. The teachers are all so kind, attentive, and loving. When I ask my 2 year old who he played with during the day, he always mentions his teachers before he mentions other children :) The curriculum is also outstanding. Both of my children have learned so much and are far ahead of other children their age in cognitive areas. I also appreciate how much KinderCare values parent feedback and parent/teacher communication.

  We love South Seattle KinderCare. We have a 2 and a 4 year old that have grown so much during their time at KinderCare and are excited about learning. All of the teachers and staff are so kind and genuinely care about the students.

  I'm going to try to be detailed and fair here. I am not happy with my experience here and have pulled my child after a month in care here. My kid started at Kindercare during the pandemic- I am an essential worker and our other care was not available. The first day my son was enrolled, Kindercare closed for the week due to a COVID exposure. Fine, this is our new normal. Second week was fine. Third week, on Tuesday, my son was sent home for having a fever and excluded for the remainder of his week. Fine, I thought. A bit frustrating but I knew he'd get sick more often in daycare. Fourth week, fine. Fifth week- my son shows up Monday. First temp taken at the door was 99. Second was 99. Third was 100. We get sent home which surprised me. So I called Kindercare Central to ask what their standard was for kids being sent home. The person on the phone didn't know and contacted the directornof this center The director of the center stated that King County specified that kids had a fever at 99.5. That sounded off to me so I checked on the health department website. She was either wrong or had lied- the standard is 100.4. She also told the person on the phone the first time my son was sent home it was for 'ear discharge' as well as for a fever. But nowhere on the slip they sent home with my son was that documented. We took our kid to the doctor after he was sent home the fifth week. The doc said temps of 99 up to 100.4 are normal in kids my son's age and that my son had never had an ear infection. When I attempted to address my concerns with the director when I dropped my son off the day after he was sent home, she again told me the standard was 99.5- despite a literal sign in the lobby saying 100.4 was a fever. She was not very polite- she was clearly not happy I had caught this and seemed surprised I knew the health department standard. She also claimed she retook my child's temp the previous AM because 'he wiggled.' I do not recall that. I don't know what to think, except I can't trust the.director. She's either a bad communicator, confused, or lying. None are not comforting to me when I leave my child in care with her. I do wonder if my kid, who has a viable disability, was not wanted and we were being pushed out, but I have no proof and no way to know. I can't share any information about teachers as I never was able to meet anyone who worked directly with my child. I get that it is a pandemic, but I also feel like I might have had more trust for this center if I knew the people directly caring for my child. I acknowledge this is a stressful time for all of us. But this center has made me feel like I was in the wrong for asking questions and wanting to understand more about my child's care. They also seem to be misunderstanding health department guideance, or, they are not able to explain things clearly to parents. I feel safer having removed my child from this center.

  We've been brining our boys here since they were 4 months old. I feel like they've learned such great social skills by being exposed to other kids and adults. They learned sign language to communicate with us early on (age 1 yr to 18 months) as well as other classroom skills. The staff is caring and open to communicating and I make it a point to talk with the teachers to see how my child is doing and if there is anything they need from me. Overall, we have been very pleased with this center and its staff.
