Parent Reviews
I have a son with down syndrome who attends Kindercare. I've had bad experiences with other centers, looking at him as the child with a diagnosis instead of just a child. My experience at Kindercare as been a breath of fresh air. When you have a child who can't verbally tell you about his day, you need to feel comfortable when he is in the care of others and the staff at Kindercare makes me feel just that. He has learned so much and the love they have for him is genuine and unconditional and he loves them too!! He doesn't even want me sometimes when I pick him up. One of the things I like the most about Kindercare is the director is very involved with the children. My son is attached to her as well. It's very important to make a mother feel like her child is safe and getting treated equally, especially when her child has special needs. The staff at Kindercare makes it easier for me to go to work knowing my children are in good hands!!
Selecting the right daycare was a tough decision, especially for a first time mom. I could not have been more certain I made the right choice with KinderCare. They have exceeded my expectations in every way! At 15 months she has quite the vocabulary going and although I would like to personally take credit I would say they have had a lot to do it. Her communication skills have really improved since joining. KinderCare is more than just a daycare. The skills they are teaching are life skills. Above and beyond any expectation I could have had. Not only do I feel confident and comfortable leaving my child at KinderCare but I know she's excited too, and that's the best part.
