We absolutely love the KinderCare Learning Center at UCAR! Stephanie, the director, is outstanding. Her warmth, leadership, and care set the tone for an amazing environment. The entire team treats every child as their own, creating a nurturing, safe, and joyful space for learning and growth. Our child comes home happy every day, and we’re so grateful for the love and attention the staff gives. This is truly a special place. Highly recommend!
I could not be happier with this daycare! Across the board they are excellent. For starters, my kiddo is always safe and cared-for there. Every teacher in the building seems to know all the kiddos, and showers them will love and belonging. As a result, the kiddos are naturally learning. Many of us know that those types of things don't happen randomly, rather it starts at the top. Stephanie and Linda are actively engaged in the day-to-day and always impress me with their communication and transparency. I will be forever grateful for the UCAR KinderCare!
KinderCare UCAR has been fantastic for our son! The teachers show so much love for all of the kids and every child feels special. The meals and snacks are always healthy and appetizing. KinderCare UCAR is a great blend of corporate (organized, well planned activities, shared information) and small (great care for every child and parent, cozy feeling). The KinderCare app is an awesome tool to get pictures and sometimes videos throughout the day to see what my son is doing.
Would highly recommend this daycare and preschool. We have been to several and UCAR Kindercare is our fav. Even though Kindercare is a big company, the center doesn’t feel corporate at all. In fact it’s very warm, homey and loving. They do an excellent job rotating through themes and curriculum, teaching the kids but keeping it fun. There are so many activities going on in any given day. The teachers are wonderful, especially Ms Rola for the 3-4 yr old classroom. The kids get a lot of outside play time and all food is provided. The hours and holiday closures are very suitable for working parents. Really can’t say enough good things about this center!
My family loves this daycare. We have been at this daycare for about 6 years and plan to continue to be here for another 3 years; our first child started around 6 months old and our second started around 14 months old. The daycare has a huge outdoor play area. The toys outside and inside the classroom are plentiful and engaging. The teachers are amazing and loving (they support the children and have supported us as parents). They provide all the food your child will need once your child is out of the infant classroom. Their hours and holiday closures are extremely working-parent friendly. I love this community and have great conversations with other parents and teachers, especially on the playground at pickup time.
