South Coast KinderCare is an exceptional day care facility that fosters a nurturing environment where children can truly flourish. I am extremely impressed and at ease with the level of care and attention provided by this center over the past six months. Each morning, my son eagerly awaits his time at South Coast KinderCare.From the moment you step through the doors, it is evident that the staff takes great pride in maintaining a welcoming and well-structured environment. The front office staff, in particular, are warm, professional, and friendly.The classroom itself is a testament to the center's commitment to organization. Every aspect of the space is thoughtfully arranged, allowing children to engage in activities within a structured environment. This structured approach greatly benefits the children, enabling them to develop important skills and structured routines.Ms. Selina and Mr. Jesse are truly exceptional and possess a unique blend of friendliness, compassion, and patience when interacting with the children. Their competence and dedication shine through as they skillfully lead activities and engage with the kids. Overall, South Coast KinderCare has exceeded my expectations in every way. I am grateful for the positive impact this center has had on my son's development and growth. I am grateful for the Ms. Lynn's commitment to maintaining the high standards of South Coast KinderCare and for creating an environment where children can thrive and reach their full potential. She is not only kind and caring but also takes the time to connect with each child and their family, making them feel valued and supported.

I do not recommend this place. The teachers are fake and hypocrites. Be careful leaving your babies there. I witnessed an incident in the 2year old room. I was dropping my son off around 10:30am. The kids were outside during playtime and one was inside trying to go potty and the teacher was screaming at him horribly and ripping his pants off so he can go. I marched in there and screamed at her telling her not to do that. She was quiet and shocked because she had been caught. I told the director about it and she just said “she’s been under a lot of stress because her father recently passed away” I was in disbelief if you don’t like kids or can’t handle stress then don’t work with kids. Either way this place and ALL daycares are horrible. My son was always filthy and had bugers all over his face and all the other kids too when I would pick him up.

My son has been attending Kindercare for the past 3 years, starting from when he was 1 1/2. I've seen him thrive in a nurturing environment where his teachers provided him with both principles as well as the necessary education socially and academically to adapt and mature to the child he is now. To list a few past and recent examples that drove my to my review to give it 5 stars: I knew he was thriving academically in their care since he was able to read all letters before the age of 2 with minimal reinforcement on my end. It was his teachers that noted the time he was ready to be potty trained, and with coordination of his teachers and myself, it took less than a week. While those are older examples, they gave me enough sample size to know that my son was in good hands. Throughout the years, I'm always reassured to hear that he's excelling both socially and academically from teachers and peers alike. When I got pregnant with my 2nd child, my worries of my son potentially getting jealous were reassured when I had noticed that he was emotionally equipped and appropriately guided, to which I noticed my concerns were really unnecessary. I trust Mrs Lynn and her staff as their communication leaves me at ease. I believe in communication between teacher and parents as crucial as the education that is set in place at school will only come to fruition with consistency at home as well.I don't say it enough, but I am so incredibly thankful to everyone who has helped with my sons education with such ease. We appreciate you so very much for all you've done for our family.

I highly recommend this day care. The teacher's are all great and very caring. I have tried a few day cares and this one is on the top of my list. The staff always respond to my questions quickly as as the needs for my children. When my kids want to go even during school break, you know they are doing something right. If I could give 10 stars, I would.

I wish I could rate this higher-as an educator it hurts my heart to write this. Unfortunately, my 4.5 month old son was somewhat neglected while here. Yes, they changed his diaper as required by the state, but that was it. He ended up with diaper rash so severe it took special cream to solve the issue. They claimed that they couldn't smell him--he is in hypoallergenic formula and his poop is the worst poop I've smelled with a baby. So, that tells me they probably weren't interacting with him enough to realize he had pooped. They never proactively communicated. I was able to pull him out and work from home until he got a new spot someplace that keeps him changed and loved. I am sorry for every parent that doesn't have that luxury. This isn't my first child or childcare experience--this is not how our babies should be cared for.

KinderCare has allowed our Family to have one aspect of our daughters childhood be “normal”. Which nowadays is invaluable.

I signed my daughter up last year. I wanted her to learn social skills, make friends and learn to be in a classroom setting. From the day we took our walk in tour I knew it was the right place. My daughter was with us when we took the tour she ran right up to her soon to be teacher and gave her a hug. At first she was still in pull ups but with their help she was more confident using the potty.I love the KinderCare app, I love seeing pictures of what she is doing throughout the day and I love learning about what they learn that day. All the staff is so friendly and so nice and care so much about all of the children. Everything is so clean and now with Covid concerns they take cleaning and safety to a new level which I love and which made my decision to keep my child in their care.I definitely recommend KinderCare at south coast for your childcare needs. You and your children will love it.

My husband and I toured many daycare/preschool centers before my co-worker told us about South Coast KinderCare. We did our tour in June and we really like the place. Ms. Lynn was able to answer all our questions and address our concerns. We started our son in July 2018 in Ms. Angie’s class for the summer program and then he was moved to Ms. Susie’s class in Sept. This review is for Pre-K class.Pros:- Clean and organized; my son haven’t come home sick or anything.- Amazing curriculum that is structured and geared towards educating and preparing the children.- In front of each classroom, they have bulletin/poster of what they did each day which is very informative for the parents.- The teacher provides progress reports of your child, which are very thorough as they let you know where your child is with respect to others his/her age. And if there any concern that need to be addressed.- Majority of the teachers have been teaching here for years (10+ years) which say a lot about the center.- Just love how all the staffs are very friendly, professional, and personable.- And much more…Cons:- Secured drop off zone/limited parking. To me, it’s not a big deal but to some it is. They located on a major street and shared a parking lot with Woodside Village apartment between the hours of 6am to 6pm. My husband and his brother drop K off in the morning on their way to work, so one would take K in and the other would stay in the car. I picked K up between 5pm to 6pm, sometime there’s no parking but I just wait around for 5-10 min and I’ll get a spot. Most parents are in and out within 10 min, so no big deal.All the staffs here are amazing! I want to say thank you to Ms. Angie, Ms. Susie, Ms. Marcella, Ms. Kate, Ms. Coral, Ms. Kathy, Ms. Lynn, and Ms. Candace for making K’s first school experiences a positive one and he have grown so much since he started. We will be taking our youngest one here in Dec when he turn 2.

The director is so rude and disrespectful .. I wouldn’t give it not even one star. My son was there and she would always complain about him .. my son had a scar and they couldn’t tell me what about to him I asked different staff that, that were suppose to be supervising the kids and nothing. I wouldn’t recommend this daycare.

My son has been attending South Coast KinderCare since he was 3 months old (he is now 2 years old). From the beginning, administrators and teachers were so welcoming and patient with us (first time parents of a child with medical needs). Everyone makes an effort to know my child and my family. My son is genuinely happy to be there, so much so he sometimes doesn't want to go home! They do lots of fun activities with the kids and they take safety really seriously. I give South Coast KinderCare my highest recommendation!

My daughter is in the kindergarten room with Mr. Susan and she loves it. She is always learning new things and sharing all of her wonderful experiences when she comes home. Ms. Susan is kind and loving to D and I couldn't thank her enough for all her attentiveness. I had a hard time letting my D go but Ms. Susan is so great and reassuring. Ms. Susie, Ms. Marcella, Ms.Kate, Ms. Coral you all are amazing as well. Thank you for your great greetings before and after school. Thank you for making my D be apart of your amazing school. D couldn't be more lucky to be there.Sonia

We love KinderCare! Everyone here is very friendly and welcoming and even though our little one is 6 months old they do such cute activities with him. We are very grateful to be taking our little one here.
