The teachers at the preschool are amazing.I've seen both my boys grow more confident and assertive in this classroom and love going to school every morning. Ms Dee, Ms Amy, Ms Jenny are the best, pay individual attention and very caring teachers. This day care has very good teachers and staff. I'm glad I chose this day care for my kids.

My African American child was a preschooler at the Bettendorf,IA center on 2330 Tech Drive. On 2/13/2023 my child went to school with a full Afro and I was also an employee during the time at 1100am on the 13th his teacher called my classroom and made the statement that he looked “older”. Once I ended my day and went to pick my child up I immediately noticed something was different ,I had took photos of him before school and I had made the comparison of the 2 and I couldn’t believe my eyes when I noticed my child had received a full hair cut. I asked my child if had received a hair cut while at school he replied “yes” I then asked who cut his hair he replied with a specific teachers name (Lead teacher in preschool B) I called the director/my boss at the time she had no response I asked her to reach out to the staff in his room she texted me asking for photos but ultimately said no one had any answers. The next day I asked the staff for their names and everybody jumped on the defense(especially the one who my child said cut his hair)and begin to threaten me with calls to the cops(eventually doing so ,after voicing that would be a great idea due to the issue at hand). I have since been released from my job and my child has been pulled from the centers all decisions made by The center director and district manager. While the person with the allegations against them is still left to work freely. I understand kindercare tries to push the idea they are open to diversity but after my experience with the staff and district manager of Bettendorf, I just can’t see how a company who’s big on diversity would allow the ones in charge to be in charge . I have been given no follow from the company or staff in regards to my child no accountability yet everyone is a mandatory reporter. Kindercare has left me feeling like they are a very prejudice company.

This center has been such an important part in our lives since our son was born almost 5 years ago. From day one, I have felt comfortable with the care and instruction provided by all of the teachers in all of the rooms. The infant room ladies have decades of experience and were so helpful to us as first-time parents. Our son really thrived in the pre-school classes (up to/around age 4). He has had some toddler struggles with controlling emotions and being polite, and I’ve been so grateful that not only have the teachers tried to correct those behaviors in the moment, but they also provided us with ideas and strategies to help at home. Our daughter is very easygoing and has absolutely loved all the teachers in the infant and toddler rooms. Since they started using the app about a year ago we get multiple pictures a day where I can see how much fun she is having with really interesting learning experiences. I cannot recommend this center enough. Compared to others it is more expensive, but I have never been unhappy with the quality of care. I couldn’t do my job well if I wasn’t secure in the care my children were receiving.

The teachers at the Bettendorf KinderCare location have been absolutely amazing. They pay attention to the children and know when they are having off days. I love that they have an app where I can get pictures of my child and see what is going on during the day!

Our infant has been with KinderCare in Bettendorf for about 4 months now. We chose this location based off several recommendations from co-workers and friends after we were unable to get onto the Arsenal daycare, which has an 18 month wait list. This center had a 3-4 month wait list for infant care when we signed up. The staff has been great with our daughter so far and has worked well with us on anything that comes up (diaper rash, illness, nap changes, and food introduction). We even get art projects to take home. Although the price of this center is higher, you get what you pay for. For those military or government civilian employees, this center is approved under Child Care Aware.

We have 2 kids attending KinderCare and it's been an amazing place for us. The teachers and directors are great. They're kind, supportive, and they care so much! They really are like a second family. I ask for their advice all the time! Our kids have also learned so much here - so much more than I ever expected! Love love love this place!

We recently moved to the area and one of the things that was most important to us was childcare for our two boys. Our experience here has been wonderful! Many of the teachers have been at the center for many years which speakers volumes, you can tell they truly love the children and their jobs, the Director is wonderful and parents are encouraged to call or stop in any time. We also have a child with food allergies and they have been diligent and very helpful in working with us to ensure he is safe throughout the day.

All three of our children have attended and still do attend this school. I would not send my most precious gifts anywhere else. We don’t live around family and sometimes that is really hard, but the teachers and staff are truly our second family. As a mommy, the best thing for me is that all three of my children have had the same teachers—the teachers are beyond experienced and they want to be there—they have a passion for teaching and caring for little ones. We are greeted every single day with smiles. They provide fun activities, especially in the summertime, for all ages. I know they provide the very best care for my babies when I can’t be there. We could never thank the teachers, staff, and management of this center enough for showing so much love to our family.

We are new to the area and have been happy with Kindercare as our new daycare! The teachers and Directors are warm and welcoming and my son acclimated quickly. They also have done a wonderful job working with my husband and I to make sure that we are happy and comfortable. I would recommend Kindercare to anyone looking!

Our son attends Kindercare in Bettendorf and we couldn't be happier with his care. The teachers and staff have made us feel like family. Even teachers that aren't in his class make sure to greet us if we see them in the hallways. My son states all the time how much he loves his teachers and the directors. He always looks forward to going to school and he has learned so much. The teachers are great with communicating with me. We really love that we have this amazing place and amazing people to care for our sweet boy when we aren't able to be there. It sure makes going to work easier knowing he's in great hands. ❤

The staff at Kindercare is amazing! They not only teach fundamental education needed, but emphasize importance of friendships, cultural awareness, and unconventional learning. They are more like family than a daycare or school. They are wonderful with the kids and work really hard to do new and exciting activities.

Kindercare has been one of the highlights of us moving to this area four years ago. My daughter started at the center when she was two years old and has continued thru pre-k and we are planning to keep her there for before and after school care. The teachers and staff are so friendly and qualified and they take the extra time to not only get to know your child but get to know your family. They do extra events outside of school time to promote families getting involved. I really love the add-on learning adventures program they have as an option. My daughter has been enrolled in phonics and now math as an add-on and she is so well prepared for kindergarten. I’m so thankful we’ve been part of the Kindercare family!

Excellent center!! My family and I moved to the area a few months ago and were very nervous about having to find my daughter a new preschool but when we found the Bettendorf KinderCare all of our anxieties went away! I can not say enough wonderful things about the teachers in the 2yr old room, they are just so welcoming and loving to all the children in thier care and it truly shows! We are expecting our second child this April and I already have him a spot reserved in the infant room!

My daughter flourished at Kindercare! She was having language issues prior to attending Kindercare, but now she knows her colors, numbers, shapes, and jumped forward overall. Very happy with Ms. Lori and her team! They are nationally accredited and have a gold star rating. Thank you Ms. Lori and team!
