Parent Reviews
Our son has attended Ries Ballwin KinderCare for the past year and a half, since he was only 12 weeks old. Throughout this time, the staff has been amazing and has made the daycare setting a second home for our baby to learn and grow. We love hearing and receiving the daily reports of events and activities, and observing our son grow in all areas of learning. KinderCare has done a great job of introducing activities that will increase social, cognitive, emotional, and physical growth by using music, books, sensory play, social play, art projects, movement activities, and many more. The teachers here have really built a bond with our son and we are confident that he is safe and happy every day of the week, thanks to the wonderful staff and Directors!
My husband and I want to extend our deepest gratitude to the staff at Ries Ballwin KinderCare, whom we have been acquainted with for several years. Our two youngest children have special needs, which require many therapies, medical equipment, and medications. The KinderCare staff has always shown genuine care and interest in their progress. Without my knowledge, the staff even stayed late one evening to rearrange the classroom setting to better accommodate my daughter's wheelchair. How reassured we are to leave our children with such devoted caretakers!
My daughter has been going to Ries Ballwin KinderCare for the past five years. I have so many wonderful things to say about her experience. Number one, I couldn't have asked for a more caring and loving environment for her. The whole staff is always friendly and they are more like a family to us than just a daycare. My daughter has a lot of allergies and she suffers from asthma. Being a mother of a child who suffers from these issues, I am always worried about what she might eat or even breathe in. But with the staff at KinderCare, I have never had to worry. They are so thoughtful and they care for her just as I do. And if there was ever an issue of anything that was being given to her to eat or even if there are times that they have a pet in the class, they would always call me just to verify if it is alright for her. They definitely go above and beyond my expectations, and I couldn't ask for anything more. If anyone ever asks me where I take my daughter for child care, I proudly say KinderCare. They are more than just a daycare, it's a place where your child can grow and excel, a place where they are loved, and a place where they can play and just be themselves.
