Parent Reviews
Hockessin KinderCare has nurtured, taught, and, more importantly, loved our three boys. In the search for the right child care program six years ago, it was clear the center was the place for us. Our center director, teachers, and staff care and it shows. Our kids have thrived in the rich and stimulating environment they are provided with daily. We love their curriculum and the overall nurturing environment in our center. No daycare will always be perfec,t and we have certainly been through ups and downs, but never hesitated that our children were being cared for lovingly.
We are thrilled with our 5-year-old's experience. We love his teacher and the staff. His classroom is a good learning environment and his teacher plans fabulous activities.
via KinderCare.comWe are fairly new to our KinderCare center, and all we can say is that it has been one of the best decisions we've made for our family. We did not choose the center because that is was where we wanted our children to go, but in actuality our children fell in love with the place and so did we - so the decision was easy! Their staff is awesome and their extracurricular programs are great as well! My husband and I love all the updates and pictures we get sent home with our little ones, which give us a glimpse of their day to day routines. We will forever be loyal to our KinderCare center and highly recommend it to all friends and family.
