This is the first daycare our son has attended and we were worried about how it would go. We were immediately comforted from the first meeting with Ms. Amber. It took him a few months to get used to being there, but the staff did everything they could to make him feel comfortable and welcome. Our son is now doing great; he’s making friends, learning new skills, and he enjoys every day he’s there. Special shout out to his teacher Ms. Abby; knowing he is well taken care of and loved makes my day away from him so much easier.

I am completely happy with your KinderCare! I love seeing the pictures and his progress report of when he’s being fed, changed and even naps. It helps me plan his day with his babysitters because I completely breastfeed at home so he eats on demand with me. The health and safety procedures are great also! I like how he does activities at daycare, especially seeing him paint at only 5 months old. The KinderCare staff has been so great with My Little one (V7) & myself even. I would recommend this daycare to many! Thank you

Both of our little ones (2 yrs and infant) attend. We moved across the country and before we even moved and fully enrolled, the directors Dana and Tanya answered all our questions and made sure both kids had a spot for when they were ready to start school. They send multiple pictures a day of both kids through the app, give daily reports, and and call/text us if they have any questions. I am glad I am able to just text them if I need something, due to being on phones all day. My son has lactose issue and they are great at making sure he has drops before Every bottle and lets us know if we are running low so we can order more. My daughter also has food that she brings in as an alternative and does not drink milk, and they follow our nutritional requests to the T. I love that they track my sons bottles on the app as well so I know when he last ate. They also take Covid very serious and make sure we use clean pens, hand sanitizer, wear a mask at all times inside and temp check our kids every morning. Overall, this is the best daycare facility that we have come across and both my husband and I are glad we found a place with great teachers and directors to keep our kids happy and safe for over 40 hours a week.

My family had a terrible experience with this facility. I went to this kindercare when I was a child and I never had seen a child be discriminated against in such a way, and I cannot believe how much this place has changed for the worse. We had been waiting for an opening at a daycare center when a single spot here finally opened up, we thought it was a blessing. Little did we know that the toddler we had sent there to receive care was going to be kicked out on his very first day. River is a very shy toddler and was struggling to be in a daycare setting for the first time so he was sitting away from the other kids and being a bit reserved; not only did the staff members not try to include him in activities or try and calm his nerves they did not give our family any chance to work with him on this. Instead they kicked him from their daycare program, and considering how rude and insensitive the staff are it’s honestly for the better.

So in love with this place. All teachers are so kind to our little one. They take wonderful care of her, specially considering her food allergies. Our daughter is super comfortable there, loves reading and they do so much to encourage her development. We know there are "cheaper" places around the area, but here you get what you pay for, quality, kindness and teachers that genuinely care for your kids. We would not risk taking our daughter anywhere else just "to save a few bucks".
