We moved to the area this past summer and were lucky enough to start our two little ones at Tender Years. Ms. Dawn and Ms. Chanté have been amazing teachers supporting our oldest as he transitioned from an in-home daycare to Tender Years. We have seen such a positive change with the added routine and structure you don’t receive at an in-home daycare. The Administration plans fun activities for the kids and families to engage as a community. It’s also a very inclusive and welcoming environment. The facility is clean, bright, and an overall fun place to walk into every morning and afternoon. I highly recommend Tender Years Hershey - it’s a great location!

Tender Years Hershey is a fantastic place to take your children for childcare! They always keep us up to date on news and events happening through the daycare and let us know about any upcoming issues in a timely manner. The nursery staff are so kind and show so much compassion for every child. Ms. Stephanie is the sweetest and takes such good care of our little girl. I love the daily updates about feedings, naps, diaper changes, and the pictures throughout the day. We couldn’t have picked a better place to send our child!!

We have brought our baby to Tender Years since she was 4 months old and the staff have been wonderful! The nursery teachers are experienced, kind, compassionate and go the extra mile to provide the babies with the care they need. They are also wonderful with dealing with an anxious mother who is struggling with leaving her baby to return to work. They have an app that allows me to check in and ask questions, communicate and see pictures of my little one throughout the day. I still struggle with leaving my baby each day to go to work, but Tender Years certainly makes it easier for me to focus since I know my baby is getting the attention and loving care that she needs.
