We came to Manchester KinderCare after shopping around for a more comprehensive daycare and preschool learning environment for our three-year-old boy. We ended up there earlier than expected when an issue arose with a prior provider. Jeanne accepted us into KinderCare early with welcoming arms and a compassionate understanding of our stressful situation. From then on, the teachers there -- Shayra, Millie, David, Sean, everyone I'm forgetting off the top of my head -- have been phenomenal. Our little guy turned four, then five, while in their care and they have collectively helped so much in preparing him for kindergarten and life beyond. It's been heartwarming and comforting to see how much they care about all "their" children, and how much they do to help them grow and learn.Beyond the love and support the individuals have shown, the logistics of a center have been hugely beneficial. Having people to cover in a teacher's absence due to illness or vacation are things we never had at prior home-based day cares. The longer open hours, additional educational programs, and extracurricular visitors and activities have enriched our boy's experience and made our lives easier.In the end, I think it was harder for us to say goodbye to KinderCare than it was for our boy. They had him so psyched to continue his school journey! We're proud to see him move forward, but at the same time, miss the whole gang at KinderCare. They've been a big, important, and appreciated part of our parenting lives.

KinderCare has been a blessing to my family. From the moment we walked in the doors of this facility, we knew we'd found a special place. The teachers and staff love, care for and nurture our children each and every day. We continue to be impressed by the attention and support given to each child. Learning and developmental growth are evident on a regular basis. Our minds are at ease each time we walk out their doors to start our work days. We know our kids are in the best care.
