The staff are warm, kind, and extremely responsive to any questions we have. We love being able to see pictures of our child doing his activities throughout the day via their app. The activities are educational and very creative (music, art, science experiments, nature walks). I appreciate the emphasis they put on learning through nature. We highly recommend Knoll-Edge!

Last year I had two in camp and they loved every day and every adventure. This year I have a niece there and she cannot wait for more boating, fishing, whale watching, learning....the captain is teaching them about the sea by showing them step by step. they pulled up lobster traps, fillet fish, caught sharks, rode alongside dolphins-total fun for kids. What really amazes me is the amount of knowledge they come home with and the level of respect they gain for ocean life and its importance. Great job by both captains and their family. Great crew.

The teachers at the center so clearly love what they do and take pride in their work. Our little guy is greeted warmly every day and even when drop offs are hard I know he's in the best hands. His teachers work hard to partner with us through challenging behaviors (toddler tantrums, oof) and have always been willing try out new things and provide feedback on how he's doing. On our car ride to school I hear all about who he wants to play with and which teachers he is hoping to see. It's so lovely knowing he's excited for his classroom.

We have always heard amazing things about this daycare, so when we got the call that our daughter…read morehad a spot in the infant classroom we were over the moon. Her infant teacher was nothing short of amazing. She loves and cares for the kids like they are her own. My daughter moved to the toddler classroom about 6 months ago and still stops by every day to give her infant teacher hugs and kisses. Beyond that, everyone in the front office is always kind and helpful and a pleasure to interact with. We are so happy our daughter is in their care.

I then waited for almost 15 minutes while there was the constant sound of crying children, but no one came to the front area and no one was visible in either the office or kindergarten area (again, this was after I had rang the doorbell requesting entry). Finally, I gave up and just left, never having the ability to speak with anyone. Perhaps this was unusual, but it doesn't inspire confidence in me and does not make me feel comfortable with the idea of leaving my daughter at this center.

Our son has been attending the KinderCare on Low Street in Newburyport for about a year and a half…read moreand I would highly recommend it. I was worried about sending a five month old to daycare so early but the kindness and attentiveness of the teachers here made it much easier on me. This particular location has a full kitchen and they provide breakfast, lunch and afternoon snacks which is a huge help for busy parents. They also have playgrounds based on the child's age and the teachers love getting the kids outside in the fresh air. Every day they play games, sing songs and create art work that are all tied to learning. It is more of a school than a day care and they have a great curriculum that they share with parents so we can include the same topics at home. The staff is wonderful. They are all very kind and they truly care about the kids and parents. It is also extremely clean. They also released a mobile app that I get updates and pictures of him throughout the day. If you are looking for day care, or school for your child, you cannot go wrong here.

We had a really great experience with this Kindercare. We had our 2 year old son there for just…read moreover a year. The director while we were at the center, Devon, was really excellent. She was super quick to respond to our emails and questions, very friendly, and very competent. We also liked the majority of teachers that we met who interacted with our child. The only complaint we made during our time there was that during drop-off and pick-up things always seemed a bit more hectic than they needed to be -- it seemed like having another teacher in there during that time would have helped. The other challenge was teacher turnover, though I imagine this is fairly common at any daycare center. Of the 12 or so teachers we met, five moved on in the year that we were there. Luckily they ended up being replaced by other great teachers. Our only reason for leaving is that a 10% discount on two children was still much higher than us just hiring a nanny.
