Parent Reviews
I cannot say enough good things about Cooley Street KinderCare. From the moment we started, the staff has gone above and beyond in caring for my son. As a first-time parent it was nerve wracking to start daycare and they have been so kind and gracious to us. Every teacher I’ve interacted with has been warm, friendly, and genuinely invested in my sons growth and development. Their kindness and professionalism make this center feel like a second home for our family. It brings me peace of mind to know that he is in such a loving, supportive environment each day. Communication is great and I always love seeing pics of him having a great day! I’m truly thankful for everything they do, and I couldn’t imagine sending my child anywhere else. Shout out to all his teachers in Infant A. We adore you and appreciate all that you do for us! THANK YOU <3.
I will never forget the day I dropped my six-week-old daughter off at daycare. I knew she was going to be taken care of but I still felt guilty leaving her to be cared for by someone else. I was surprised to see how understanding and caring the teachers at KinderCare were. That day, they didn't only take care of my daughter, but they also took care of me. They eased my mind that she would be well taken care of without making me feel like my feelings were invalid. My daughter is now three years old and continues to attend KinderCare and loves every minute she spends there. She is learning things that she would never learn at home. She is socially blossoming into her own person and forming her very own personality. She has had different teachers through different stages in her development and all I can say is that each and every one of them, though very different, has helped my daughter be the smart, social, and wonderful child she is today. I feel like the staff at KinderCare is a part of our family. They have shown a true interest in my child and care about her education and well being. KinderCare has not only provided a wonderful learning environment that my daughter thrives in, but continues to give me piece of mind that I have made the right decision about choosing KinderCare as our daycare provider.
I would recommend KinderCare to anyone who wants the best educational experience for their child. My daughter has really blossomed since she started there at age three. She has learned so much and is definitely more than prepared for Kindergarten. The teachers are very caring professionals who provide a safe, fun, and stimulating environment. KinderCare is by far the best center my daughter has attended!
