My 2 year old son has attended Knowledge Beginnings since he was 6 months old. During the last 18 months I have met and developed relationships with everyone who works at the center. These folks are here for all the right reasons! They love the kids, they are sensitive, kind and always willing to help. I have recommended them several times and will continue to do so in the future. When I drop my son off in the morning I am always confident that he is safe, learning a ton, having fun with friends and growing into a well rounded person. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Knowledge Beginnings for helping me raise a great kid!

My family loves Knowledge Beginnings. We have been here since 2020 and are still loving the place. We got our first son in during COVID as they were the only ones open for healthcare workers around here. Since then we have enrolled our second son and plan to enroll our daughter when the time comes. We love the staff and the teachers. Carol and Colleen are always available and quick to respond to any concerns either live or in a message. The teachers are fantastic and my boys always come home with a new story of what they learned that day. Last week, my oldest wrote his first book in class! They also get plenty of exercise during outdoor time. The center is always clean and hygienic, and they recently renovated the whole interior. They have a kitchen onsite and provide healthy breakfasts, lunches, and snacks which most other centers we looked at do not. They have more open hours compared to other care facilities around (6am-6pm). The app is fantastic. Not only can we complete all of the business we need to on it, but we also get updates and pictures throughout the day which always makes me smile when I am working. They host parent events throughout the year, such as a shaved ice bar or classroom get together, and frequently have special events come to the school such as a reptile lady, kid train, or even a robot band. Coming up is a trip down to see the Rivercats!All in all we are very happy to have found KB. We will continue to use them for all of our kids and can't recommend them enough.

This is an amazing place. I have never been so happy to have my children attend to this daycare. Since the day I met them, they have been nothing but caring and beneficial for me and my children, they have helped my daughter hit milestones so quickly by giving her amazing care. They send photos everyday, showing arts and crafts and more. My son also attends there and absolutely loves it there.I know that my children are always safe being at this daycare. I recommend this daycare to anyone! this is the safest and best place for children to go. I will be having my children there for as long as they can. The managing staff is amazing. Carol and Colleen are wonderful and do an amazing job. The saved me and my family by showing compassion and support. The staff as well is so spectacular! They communicate so well and they are so kind to me and my children. I am so grateful that I’m able to have my children go there, best place in the world.

Hello,
We have taken our girls to Knowledge Beginnings for two years now, we love the staff, we love the updates we get daily, we love that our children love to be at KB, we love that they are safe, we love that they have set rules and expectations to keep all the kids and staff healthy... We recommend KB to anybody, it seriously is the best place to send your children.
Thank you.

The staff at Roseville Knowledge Beginnings is unmatched. From the day I showed up there with my 3 month old infant they were so warm and loving and I knew without a doubt my little one was in good hands. I’m amazed every day now at the things my 2 year old child knows! She’s had many wonderful teachers there but is currently with Mrs. Barbara and is so excited to go see her everyday! There’s no better hands you could trust with your kiddos than this staff. From the front desk to the teachers and even the wonderful kitchen staff that will take care of any special needs your child might have. I will forever recommend Knowledge Beginnings!!!

I’m a grandparent with 3 grandchildren attending KB. Warching my grandchildren interact socially with other children along with educational lessons taught by a compassionate and caring staff fills my heart! This school staff is always welcoming and as are retired educator myself, I’m very impressed with their accreditation.

My grand daughter is a student, I do recommend the school highly, they have a group of loving caring teachers.
The fact that they are cross from our Dental Office, I do notice that many parents are Dentists and Physicians, and those parents are very picky!

Love Stephanie, my son's teacher. She emails pictures and is excellent about keeping you informed about events going on in the class.

I think people should know to expect a lot of CHANGES in this school. We were there only a few months her teacher changed several times, they add people that they tell you nothing about to your childs class, and it very difficult to get these so called "teachers" background. Management has changed. The Phonic teacher changed within the first month I was there.
The Mandarin teacher is amazing (Ms. Marina) but depending on what class your child is in she is only with them for part of the day and is spread out all over the school so your child spends a lot of time with other teachers. Price is too high compared to regular Kindercare considering the curriculum is the same, and they all have the same extra curricular classes like Phonics, cooking, dance, etc (they even charge more for those classes). Most of the Kindercare's are in better locations away from freeways like this one, many times the kids see a lot of traffic and homeless walking outside while they are playing in their play yard. The play-yard for the younger kids is nice, but not much for the older kids who are in their after school program.
I think we are all looking for different things as parents and many don't pay attention to what really goes on in the program so you really can't trust what anyone says. I think there is definitely a lack of "quality" of care to the kids and "communication" to the parents. There are not much family involvement in the school, unless there is an event in which they want the families to bring something like food/supplies. But you would think considering they are learning a new language that they would try to include parents so they can learn and reinforce it at home as well. So although it is great to learn a new language-not so useful at home when you have no idea how to continue it.
They have big class sizes. The director always says when asked "We are full" but there are constantly new children coming in the classes almost weekly to monthly. And for events it seems that there are about 30 kids in the class.
I would recommend coming in there for at least a 2 week period spaced out and observe the teachers, staff, and classes you are interested in and get a good feel about the program. Don't just go when they are expected you, because that was my mistake. You really start to see things when your doing the unexpected.
The Kindercare in Granite Bay has an amazing staff that have been there consistently for many years and an amazing director. I would check it out first before you decide to go to this school because you get better quality of care for your child and they cater to each individual child's needs. I changed my daughters school from there for a complicated reason, but I am contemplating her to return now that she is 4 and can go into a different class...but changing is challenging and although children are very good about changes I want consistency. But I am finding that is hard to keep going at this school as it is always changing, more so then other schools. I never felt that way over at the Kindercare in Granite Bay.
But I would recommend instead of listening to parents to go spend a lot of time at the school before you decide...don't go by recommendations like I did for this school when I was trying to make a sudden decision for my child.
Also they have camera's that look impressive-but honestly they have not been very useful cause u can barely see anything or your child from their class and your not able to access them from work or home. So don't look at the fluff in the beginning so much, look at the quality.
I have learned as well that different people pay differently, even when going on vacations (some pay, while others don't)-they are not consistent even with how they collect payment or have preferential treatment.
Goodluck!

I don’t normally write reviews; however, I came across some of the previously posted reviews about Knowledge Beginnings in Roseville, CA and felt it was important to give parents seeking for daycare providers an additional perspective. My wife and I have two children that we have enrolled in Knowledge Beginnings in Roseville for over a year and a half. Having had a very eye opening and truly disappointing experience with a Montessori school in Roseville, my wife and I were, to say the least very skeptical and apprehensive about finding a suitable daycare provider for our children. We were referred to Knowledge Beginnings by a friend and colleague and are truly grateful for it. Contrary to some of the previously posted reviews, I believe the Director, Assistant Director and staff at Knowledge Beginnings are competent, caring and truly represent the gold standard for daycare providers. My wife and I have continuous open communication with the staff at Knowledge Beginnings regarding the education and care for our two children on a daily basis. From the time we take our children to daycare in the morning to the time we pick them up, my wife and I are comfortable and confident that the staff at Knowledge Beginnings has the best interest of our children and their developmental growth at hand.
