  My daughter attended KinderCare beginning in October 2024. After repeated concerns at the Prairie View location—including unexplained bruises, being picked up in urine/feces-soaked clothing, severe rashes, and missing personal belongings—I transferred her to the Parvin & Chouteau location in April 2025, hoping for a safer environment. Unfortunately, many of the same concerns continued. During our time there, my daughter was left alone, unclothed, and crying in the bathroom with the door wide open, on multiple occasions, I witnessed this upon my arrival. She came home on multiple occasions with scratches and bruises that were not documented or explained, and there were several times staff could not tell me where she was when I arrived for pickup, leaving me to search for my own child. On one occasion, I found her outside with her hair caught in a bike wheel while a teacher was focused on their phone, my daughter was crying for help. She has been sent home in clothing 2 sizes too small, or with no underwear instead of the clothing I have provided for her. Teachers also made inappropriate comments by telling me they believed my daughter was autistic rather than recommending a professional evaluation. Twice recently while the director was on vacation, my daughter told me a teacher smacked her hand and she told me another teacher pushed her forehead. She has been frequently telling me teachers are mean, and they didn't listen to her and that other children were hitting, biting, pushing, and spitting on her. Since leaving the center, she has struggled with behaviors she did not display before, making her transition into school much more difficult. When I brought my concerns to staff and administration, I felt dismissed. I was spoken to unprofessionally in front of children, physically guided toward the entrance by a teacher during one interaction, and my concerns were not meaningfully addressed despite repeated complaints. The center also regularly notified parents about staffing shortages while continuing to operate under those conditions. After nearly two years of giving this facility opportunities to improve, I made the decision to disenroll my daughter. Every child deserves a clean, safe, nurturing environment where they are supervised, respected, and protected. Unfortunately, that was not our experience, and I cannot recommend this location to other families. Please, do not send your children here.

  My daughter attended kinder care for two years when she moved up to three class care started going downhill she even came home one time with no diaper. The icing on the cake was my daughter came home and told me about a teacher that smacked her hand. I informed Jen the director about this situation and she had to do an investigation the teacher that smacked my daughter’s hand was on vacation at the time when the teacher came back from vacation. My daughter pointed her out. The teacher was never fired. I remove my daughter from kinderCare and told Jan that she will not be attending fast forward now you later I see there is a balance on my credit report from KinderCare for $600. My balance was always up-to-date and taking care of it. It’s very distasteful the teacher not never Got fired and they still continue to charge me even after I remove my daughter from the situation thankfully, I’ve always taught my daughter how to speak up for herself

  my godson kept coming home with bruises all over his face, cuts and scratches. never a note explaining why, no conversation about what could’ve happened. i don’t know what’s going on there but something needs to be done and an investigation needs to be HAD! i’ve never seen such disregard for children.

  Miss Mevlida and Miss Holly are the best. We have really enjoyed their care of our infant. Miss Holly has amazing work ethic. Both are probably their most dependable teachers and we love them so much.

  My oldest son has attended this daycare center for years now and he loves it! Hes know in school but he won't let me take him, because he enjoys going to KinderCare before and after so much. Hes made friends and they've helped tremendously with any behavioral problems hes had. They figured out quickly how to handke him and they are always patient and accomodating with him. I also recently had another son who I was hesitant about starting in daycare at such a young age but they have been wonderful with him as well. They communicate with me and even send photos at times letting me see how well his day is going. They love him and he loves them as well. I would recommend this center to anyone!
