  After a few years with our kids in this place, I now have doubts, looking back. We chose this place mostly because of the low cost. When we had our young son and daughter there, we had many days of the kids crying and refusing to go in. We'd talk with the teachers, try to pinpoint the problem, etc., but couldn't see reason to put it on this daycare specifically and the problem would subside for periods of time. Near the end of our time there the problem was coming up again and I started to notice some of the teachers never smiled. Maybe it's their personality? Maybe they don't like their job? Is my kid just being stubborn? I'd like to describe these particular teachers but there is an obvious descriptor I can't use for politically incorrect reasons. The place also started having a rotation of really young people working and this was around the time the previous director abruptly left. Well, now, our kids have gone on to public schools and they've had zero issues with going to school in the morning. We heard from other parents using this daycare with similar problems of their kids crying when they get dropped off, and told us that our daughter always looked unhappy when they'd see her there. I don't know how things are because it's been over a year since we used it. My advice to parents is this: be wary of the low cost of this place. If you have the option of better schools but are tempted to go with this place because of the cost, I would strongly advise you to just pony up.

  We really love this daycare. Our son has been attending for almost a year from 14 months to now (2 years old). We’ve seen him grow so much from things he has learned at school. Early on the teachers helped with his transition from bottle to cup. He now uses utensils, has a growing vocabulary, and great social skills. He is surprising us everyday with new things he has learned; last week it was knowing his days of the week. The teachers are all very caring and the other staff is great too. We highly recommend! Added bonus is not having to pack meals or diapers!

  After joining the Kinder care my 4 year old son got changed a lot. Now he is very active, improved communication and most importantly became very social. I am very happy with the progress he made. Thankful to the entire team for their support and efforts.

  I'm a Princeton University employee and our sons (4.5 and 2 years old) absolutely love attending this Princeton KinderCare! We've been here for 3 years now and the teachers and center director provide a safe environment for the kids with excellent and prompt communication. Everyone is super friendly and genuinely caring about the kids. They do all sorts of both fun and educational activities and our boys are excited to go each morning. They particularly love all the fun time on their outdoor, fenced-in playground and the 4.5 year old has told me a few times that I arrived for pickup too early and cut short his fun. The kids and us parents both love it here, so highly recommend for your childcare needs!

  Our son has been enrolled here full time since he was four months old in December of 2019 and we love this daycare center! The staff are wonderful and our son has thrived here making friends, learning new skills and growing into the well adjusted three year old he is now. The staff is never anything but supportive and loving with the children, even during the stressful times of covid over the past years. The Director is always available and responsive to questions. This is a great, loving environment for the little ones!
