After my daughter’s first daycare center closed its doors without any notice to the parents, the KinderCare Center in Woburn, Massachusetts stepped up to the plate for my whole family. The director of the Woburn, MA, center, Francine Foster, was and continues to be such a pleasure to work with; she was able to admit my daughter immediately and made my husband and I feel like we were making the right decision. Sure enough, here we are three years later and I have no regrets at all. From the beginning, the teachers understood my daughter, to know when she needed a little extra attention; when she felt uncomfortable; if something was bothering her etc. As a mother, these little extra things are more important than anything else. From the toddler room with Ms. Maira, to the preschool room with Ms. Ashley, and finally into Pre-K with Ms. Maggie, all awesome teachers!!!Administratively, I could not have asked for more. Francine kept the parents up-to-date with her weekly emails. She always responded to my questions/concerns immediately. She always worked with me in whatever the situation was. Not only that but Francine planned many fun events like ice cream socials, summer bbqs, parent’s night and day. All of which allowed my daughter to work on her social skills and build up her confidence. It is sad that my daughter’s time at KinderCare is coming to end, as she is moving onto Kindergarten. She is going to miss everyone tremendously as will I. You know, when my husband and I were looking at daycares, people advised us to stay away from “chain” centers, as they didn’t provide as much personal service as the “independently owned” daycares did but they were COMPLETELY WRONG. I have already recommended and will continue to recommend KinderCare in Woburn to future mothers.

I wanted to write this letter to express my thanks to all of you for the incredible care you’ve given to my son over the last year. It seems like it was yesterday that I dropped him off to you - the day after his first birthday - for his first day of school. He couldn’t even walk! I was terrified and hysterical. But since that day, I have never worried once when I knew he was in your care. I am still surprised at how each and every teacher in your school knows him and has a personal relationship with him, whether they were teaching in his class or not. Each staff member is always helpful, respectful and pleasant. Your school is bright, happy and filled with total caring and love for children. I know as a nervous, first mother, I have called KinderCare to check in on my son constantly. I never once got a negative reaction from anyone. We have gone through some very hard times in our family, and KinderCare has always been there to support Ryder and myself through those difficult times. They say it takes a village to raise a child, and for me, a single mother without much family, I could not be more appreciative to all of you at KinderCare for being part of my village in caring for my son. Thank you so much for everything!
