Our children started at the Shannon Park KinderCare in Rosemount five years ago in the infant room and two-year-old room. Five years later, we are still at the same KinderCare and LOVE IT!! The KinderCare teachers become an extension of your family. The teachers in the younger classrooms are wonderful with the little ones. We never had to worry about nervous or anxious children because the teachers are quick to welcome the children into the classroom and they warm right up! The teachers in the Preschool and Prekindergarten rooms do a phenomenal job of preparing children for Kindergarten. Our children have grown very attached to so many of the teachers. It shows by how excited they are when they see their teachers and how often they talk about them when they are at home. They still seek out teachers from previous years to say hello and give them hugs! This KinderCare center has a very low staff turnover compared to other centers. Most of the teachers that were at KinderCare when my children started five years ago are still here today. It's reassuring to know our children are spending their day with people committed to helping them learn and grow. I can't say enough wonderful things about the Center Director and Assistant Center Director. They are always present and engaged in the classrooms and day to day activities. We have never had any major issues with this center, but for the occasional minor issues they have always been quick to act and respond. I always feel like they are working with me and not against me - so important as a parent! The Learning Adventures programs - Wow!!! I cannot say enough great things about these programs! My children have participated in the Music, Cooking, Math and Phonics programs during our time at KinderCare and have loved all of them! I would recommend any of them but if you can only choose one, the Phonics program is top-notch! My oldest daughter started Kindergarten this year and thanks to the Phonics program and the Prekindergarten curriculum, she was mastering sight words, reading simple books and was even starting to write words based on how they sounded. This program is worth every penny! I would absolutely recommend the Shannon Park KinderCare to anyone and I am so thankful for the roll this center has played in the lives of our two children.

As a parent, I cannot say enough great things about the teachers, staff and Shannon Park KinderCare center! My husband and I have been bringing our children to KinderCare since 2006. We started our daughter at another daycare center and ran into issues with the care she had been receiving. As new parents, we were very concerned that this was a regular occurrence in all centers. When we checked out Shannon Park KinderCare in Rosemount, we knew that the care she would receive there would be different. We could just tell that the staff loved their jobs and the children loved them because of it. The class structures and routines really help kids learn not only basics (like ABCs and 123s) but also how to be good citizens. We believe that the KinderCare program really gives kids a head start for school. When it was time for our daughter to start Kindergarten, it was amazing how smooth the transition was.
