  I had a very positive experience with KinderCare Portland Downtown. Christina, Susan, and all teachers are caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children’s development. My child enjoys attending daycare and told me great stories about preparing pizza, playing games and book reading. We also appreciate the communication with parents and the structured daily activities. The environment feels safe, welcoming, and well-organized, which gives us peace of mind while our child is there. Much appreciated the flexibility. Overall, we are very happy with the care our child receives at KinderCare and would recommend it to other families looking for a caring and reliable daycare.

  Top-tier care. Honestly, I will not put my child anywhere else. These people genuinely love and care for my child. Truly so grateful to have such a safe and loving place for my child to learn and play.

  I truly cannot say enough amazing things about this daycare. The directors, Christina and Bailee, are absolutely incredible. They are so involved, friendly, and genuinely caring people. You can tell they truly love what they do, and that care trickles down into every classroom. My 1-year-old has been in both the infant room and the toddler room, and every single teacher has been amazing. Communication has always been great, anytime I needed anything, they were willing to work with me and be supportive. One small example that meant so much to me: they always made it a priority to make sure my son had a clean diaper right before pickup because we have a long commute home. That kind of thoughtfulness really shows how much they care. My son struggles with drop-off, and they consistently give him the extra love and comfort he needs until he’s calm. As a mom, that reassurance means everything. I have always felt that he was safe, loved, and truly cared for. I also love that for picture day, one of their own teachers takes the photos instead of using a big company like Lifetouch. The app is another huge plus I love getting updates and seeing photos of him having so much fun throughout the day. I unfortunately have to switch daycares due to a job change, and I honestly hate that I have to leave. It really sucks because this place has been such a blessing for our family. I can’t say enough how much these teachers truly care, and I will always be grateful for the love and support they’ve given my child. 💛

  Our 16 month old has gone to the Downtown KinderCare since he was three months old. We had a wonderful experience in the infant room. It was small and the babies were well loved. I always felt more like I was dropping my little man off with family; they welcomed him with open arms. We are loving the toddler program, teachers, and the school. I really appreciate the pictures we receive throughout the day and that the teachers have sent pictures of the classroom. This helps make it feel like we get to “see” the class. It’s great. The drop-off & pick-up procedures are easy and professional. Plus, Miss Dee is always there with a big / warm smile... even when I’m telling her we forgot shoes at home. It’s obvious that the center is serious about the precautions necessary to keep the kiddos and staff safe; I appreciate that. The classroom itself is great. I can tell my little man is learning/growing. I think he sings songs at home, so I’m guessing there must be some songs they sing throughout the day? He often sounds like he’s trying to sing something (just in baby language, but he surely knows what he’s saying!). It’s been incredible watching him grow and blossom while in the toddler class.

  Absolutely top-notch staff - the teachers are AMAZING. Can't say enough about the experience we've had with the Downtown KinderCare location - fantastic activities and curriculum, highly professional and compassionate teachers (with both the kids and the parents!!), and the management is awesome.
