The staff of KinderCare took care of my son for a month and a half and they were amazing. I wish I…read morecould afford to put him there full time but I can't My mother was away on vacation during this time period so I had to place him into daycare. I made the best decision coming here not because it's kindercare but because they're amazing people. I was sure my son wouldn't like Director Miguel because he doesn't like men but surely enough my son loved him and everyone. It breaks our hearts that I had to pull him. But grandmas back now so he doesn't need to go to daycare. I stink at remembering names but his teachers were very informative kind and just down right amazing. They updated me throughout the day with photos and diaper notifications. I'm new to the mom world so I was constantly asking them silly questions in the beginning and after a couple of days they made me feel comfortable that my son was in their care. Sure kindercare is a large company but I didn't care about that. I care about whether my son will be in good hands or not and after many interviews with different daycare it was obvious to not go with this location. If you can afford it I would definitely recommend enrolling your child here. They have several different classes for children with many teachers there to care for your child. I've met questionable teachers in the past and NO ONE here made me feel that way. Being a new mom I learned quite a bit from the short period of time I've been here. Kinder care staff, if you happen to read this, THANK YOU FOR TAKING CARE OF JAMESON. I am definitely coming back here whenever my mom goes back on vacation Please note that you are not allowed to post photos of your child with other children (I'm fine with this) so enjoy a few of my son having fun in their care.

The director of the daycare, Miguel Garcia, is beyond unprofessional. Besides that, the center…read moreposes massive safety concerns for the kids. The teachers are great, though. I have nothing bad to say about them. The issues began from the start when I asked Miguel to send me instructions on what to bring and prepare to start daycare. I'm a FTM and I had some questions. After multiple emails and phone calls, Miguel finally sent me a list, which left me scrambling to buy extra things at the last minute. I was concerned about poor communication, but I let it go, hoping it won't be a problem. Then, the bigger issue emerged - children's safety in the daycare. When I was creating an account, I had to create passwords for each person who may pick up our child. I thought that there would be a unique code for each to enter the facility. For the first three days, I just walked in with other parents, which is a concern itself. Anyone can get in the building with no issues. On day four, there was no one to follow, so I tried the password I selected while registering, but it didn't work. I had to call, Ms Jess opened and gave me the code. This code is used by EVERYONE! It means that any person can learn it easily and access the facility, which is a massive security concern. But bear with me; there is more. On Thursday of the second week of daycare, I noticed my daughter had fluid buildup in the crown of her head. I took her to the ER immediately and notified the daycare. In the ER, everyone has been repetitively asking me if she hit her head. I knew she did not hit her head when she was with me (my husband was traveling at that time), but I didn't know anything else. My husband called the daycare, which is a normal thing to do. Miguel instantly said, "Nothing happened." My husband asked to check with teachers just to make sure. Miguel did and confirmed that nothing happened. We relayed this information to the ER team. The CT scan was performed, and no structural damage was found. The ER doctor said that there was no damage, and he didn't know what it was, but there was nothing to be concerned about. The pediatrician whom I took my daughter to right after ED suspected that it could be a rare case of delayed fluid collection after a traumatic birth, which was the case. Miguel called in the evening, and I told him that there was no injury, but the doctors were not sure what it was. I said that our daughter is doing well. Then at 10:30 pm Child Protective Services showed up. To make a long story short, Miguel called and reported child abuse, even knowing that there was no trauma. CPS was surprised because a hospital was obligated to report instances like this, but they never did because there was no trauma. I'm not going to tell you how humiliating and stressful it is. I'm glad our daughter is too little to understand what's going on. Luckily, everyone from CPS we've been dealing with has been extremely pleasant. Miguel not only lied to them when he stated that my husband called angry, accusing a daycare, but he also said that he doesn't have our phone numbers. How don't you have the phone numbers of the parents of a child under your care? My husband has been understanding, saying that Miguel had to cover himself in case something happened to our child. He asked Miguel why he didn't give us at least a heads-up so we knew what to expect. Two days after that, Miguel sent us a message through the app stating that he had to do it. Otherwise, his teacher and he could be fired, and the center could be closed. I leave this information here for everyone to come to their own conclusions. Additional concerns. On the first day at the daycare, Infant rooms A and B were merged after 2:30 p.m. when the Room A teachers left after their shift was over. I found out about this practice after the fact when I came to pick up my daughter. She was in the room with a lot of children and only a few teachers. She cried a lot and looked terrible. The center should disclose this practice in advance. Additionally, I'm concerned that the ratio was not as required. Infants sleep in the same room they play in, which means that the noise and lights are on. My child had a difficult time sleeping in this environment, which the teachers pointed out to me. I saw a child sleeping on the floor a few times during our short time in the daycare. Another thing I didn't realize is that infants don't go outside ever until they're over 12 months. It is not healthy for a child to stay indoors all day long.

I found this on the website on approved daycare centers registered with the state that have active…read moreand current licenses. I called to check them out over the phone and get a feel for them. I was instantly pleased when they answered with a very happy and energetic voice! The owners name is Nancy and she is an absolute doll! She asked me when I'd like to go in and look at the center to see what they do and how they interact w the kids. When I got there I found that this day care is in a house! How awesome! The kids won't feel as if they are in "school" exactly because it was something that my son was definitely not ready for. It still has that family feel to it. The parking lot is in the back on the center. It had a yard for the kids to play in with plenty of toys. I went inside and I soon as I walked in I can feel the energy. The not and laughter of the kids was calming to me. Nobody was crying out sad. Nancy has two assistants that help her throughout the day. Well Nancy and I sat down and she gave me all the information about the center. The prices were the most reasonable than any other reputable place on the area with the same atmosphere. I decided to send my son here. He ended up going for about 3 years until he started kindergarten. My son did not want to stop going!! I have made lifetime friends here. Nancy and I are still friends. One of her teachers became one of my best friends. And my son made a great friend. His friends mom is also a good friend that I made there. We still visit from time to time and send cards and pictures every year. This center will quickly make you feel like family. My son stopped going the years ago and he still wants to go visit all the time. I never had any problems here. This place is top notch as good is it gets!!!

We started my daughter here at 9 months and pulled her out after 3 weeks. I just found this daycare…read moreto be described best as benign neglect. Now I am referring to the Infant room, so this is not a review based on their toddler care. -They have live video streaming which was one of the reasons we liked this daycare. Well unfortunately it showed us reason to take her out. On numerous occasions she was left in a bouncer or seat by the table for over an hour without any interaction with the providers. Even at times when she showed signs of exhaustion, they left her there, i'm not sure if it was in hopes she'd pass out that way?? I even provided them with her schedule prior to starting which they never even looked at it. Had they done so, they would have known it was nap time for her and put her in a crib. -When we asked that she get more play time on the rug, they would leave her there to play alone and the caretakers would go talk amongst themselves over by the kitchen area without turning to check on the kids. The play area is safe but there is no barrier between there and the dirty kitchen or doorway. I had to watch helpless as my daughter started to crawl out towards the kitchen and proceeded to pick up an unknown object from the floor and put it into her mouth. I called immediately and then they picked her up and put her into a swing. This was probably only a few minutes but that's all it takes for a baby to get themselves into trouble, choke on something, etc.. -If the caretaker she was assigned to was not in the room, no one else seemed to be responsible for her. Another reason why she would be left in a bouncer for a long period of time. Her caretaker was there from 8-4pm, so by the time we picked her up around 5/5:30pm, the two staff members left would be absolutely clueless to the schedule of her day so at times she'd miss her 5pm dinner meal or be napping much later than she should've been. -A strange thing happened - they didn't inform us that she threw up one day. Instead we found out when we came home and found a plastic bag which contained her soiled pants with food/puke stains all over. I would normally have thought it was just spilled food or poop that seeped out, but there was no mention of poop in her daily log and she threw up several more times that evening and ended up with an ear infection shortly after. -They provide you with a folder with their "curriculum" as well as paperwork for you to provide to the caretaker once they start so they can get to know your child better. Don't bother filling it out as they didn't even look it over. It was filed away and when we brought her to the infant room, they asked me what her schedule was and wrote it on a piece of paper. This wasn't just on the first day, they did this everyday when we brought her in! And their curriculum is a load of BS. They do not do story time and they barely play with the kids (maybe 1 hour tops for the day). Overall it was a horrible experience for us.

I am so sorry to see the not so great reviews here. My son is now 4 and has been at Rainbow…read moreCranford since he has been 6 weeks. We love them I have an would highly recommend them to anyone. Specifically as for the infant room, Pink Elephants, quite simply, Martha is amazing. As a working mother of a baby born with a broken heart it was, I believe, harder for me to leave my baby in day care than it is for other mothers. Eddie was 6 weeks old and his incision from his open heart surgery was 4 weeks old. He wasn't tiny but he was still healing. From the time I brought him in for a "test" visit the week before we started full time I knew she was going to be wonderful, and love and care for my baby. That is what happened, Martha fell in love with Eddie, as his primary at Rainbow she not only put up with my over protectiveness she helped us both through that first year. She experienced so many firsts with our family; moving from formula to baby food, baby food to solid food, sitting up for the first time, first real play, and the list goes on. Even though is Eddie is now 4 he still loves his Martha and so do we, she will always be a part of our family and memories of Eddie's first year. We have had great experiences will staff in general, everyone knows my son and calls him by name. There are 2 staff members that moved on to go back to school and we still keep in touch. Earlier this year my son had some behavior issues, pushing his boundaries and the teaching and administrative staff were great, we worked to together to get him to where he should be. He is back on the straight and narrow, listening to his teachers. :)

They are both attentive not only to the children but also to the parents and really do what they can to insure follow through between house / school behavior which is awesome! Mr Anthony and Miss Amy are always here to answer questions, they are personable and really accommodating if they can. They surprised us through the year with fantastic shows, activities for the kids : petting zoo for Halloween, Puppet show, Framer with little chicks, huge easter egg hunt, planting flowers, ect ... Price wise , they are really reasonable for the service provided. From outside it does look like much , but please do not hesitate to call in , you will not regret it !!!! We are moving and so we will have to switch daycare next year but will always remember dearly our Discovery Child Care family :)
