Woodinville KinderCare

We sent our sensitive 2.5 year old to day care for the first time after only being cared for by family members. Because of her nature and not having as much socialization (thanks, Covid), she did take a few weeks to adjust. But the director and all the staff we have met clearly are dedicated to early learning and have a heart of gold. They really made sure that the met our daughter where she was, went the extra mile to make sure she was comfortable, and have always elicited the highest confidence in us that she is having a great time at school. Our daughter frequently mentions her teachers, names all her dolls after her teachers, and loves her classmates. We have the greatest respect for the staff, which is only further reinforced by how much our daughter values and adores the staff and her time here.

As a former Kindercare kid (on the east coast in the 80s/90s) and having 2 children who attended both Northgate and Woodinville locations (recently moved and didn't even hestitate to go to the Kindercare in my new city) from 3 months to present (school age now), I can say without a doubt that Kindercare is a great place for childcare, socialization, and educational development. Ms. Karen and Ms. Tara are kind, accessible, and thoughtful Director/Assistant Director. My youngest recently was in the infant classroom and the teachers in that classroom were amazing! So much so that my little one still waves to them on his way in and out each day. My oldest has formed life long friendships with fellow kids, loves going to the center, and is a well rounded child in an Elementary school setting. I know Kindercare was instrumental in her development into elementary school. Give the center a tour today!

We are fortunate enough to have two children attending, one in preschool and the other in the infant classroom. Our preschooler just turned three and counts past 20, recognizes all his letters, and can name all of his shapes. Multiple times per week my son is asking to go back before we have even gotten home. He talks about all of his friends constantly and he has kids who all yell hi to him when he walks in each morning. He has some support needs and the school has been so accommodating- taking feedback from therapists, being flexible with him, etc. As a mom, it has been amazing to feel like I don't have to worry about him during the day. Our baby has attended for almost five months. They have been a great resource when I have questions, they have followed my lead with when to start table food, we get excellent communication from them. Center wide I appreciate the app where we get updates on their day in real time including photos and videos. We are so grateful for Woodinville KinderCare!

Please dont take your child here. The first month of my 4yr old attending here he came home with bruises on his private parts. Severe bruises that he told me a teacher squeezed him there. I had to take him into the hospital to be checked and filed abuse against the teacher who is still currently working there, her name is Sabrina. She was the teacher that day handling my kids tantrum. He told me she did it and he pointed her face out in a picture line up. Theres no cameras in the school so the case was dropped and there was nothing I could do anymore. Please stay away from this school I believe there may be abuse going on the teacher doesnt have self control when dealing with emotional children. I also came inside one day prior to this happening and a kid was asking for more food and was told no even though he was begging for more he was told no. Very sad.
