I have been taking my son here since he was 3 months old. I was a new mom and new to the area and let me tell you, these ladies love these babies. I am never worried about the care he is receiving at this facility. I recommend this daycare to anyone who will listen. I am forever grateful for this place.

This place and the staff have been nothing short of a godsend. As a single and solo parent to a child with special needs, finding a facility that not only can help guide my sons developmental path but to treat him with as much love and affection as I do, I would not be leaving this facility if I wasn't in the near future having to move and relocate my family. I cannot praise the staff and the director enough, they truly care for the kids in their care not only as their charges, being paid to care for and watch the children, but they show the love and affection I have come to witness first hand they give to their own children also in the facility.

My kid absolutely loves coming here. He comes home and talks about what a great time he had and the nice kids he met; he looks forward to going back. I like how they take the safety of the kids very seriously.

I have been blown away about Braddock Road KinderCare! My child thrived as was so loved and cared for. I wanted to find a place where my free-spirited daughter would be cared for, be safe, and loved and embraced, and KinderCare Braddock Road was the place for her. The attention to detail and involvement of the staff and teachers was amazing. I constantly got videos and photos throughout her my daughter's day everyday and her teachers were always on top of how her day went. As a parent, KinderCare Braddock Road gave me peace of mind everyday after I dropped off my child every morning and this is something priceless!

I have 2 kids at this center (pre-k and school age). The staff is wonderful and you can really tell how much they love all their students. I really enjoy the updates we get throughout the day via their app. It makes me smile during a sometimes hectic workday. My little one has learned to read and write in the past year. She is more than ready for kindergarten.

Our three year-old has blossomed in his preschool class. His increased pace of development has been remarkable - he speaks more fluently, interacts better with his peers, is more comfortable with classroom etiquette. He clearly loves and respects his teachers, and we appreciate receiving the several photos and videos of classroom activities they upload each day. Fully recommended!

My son has been to another daycare before and he was not happy to go there. Since we’ve been with KinderCare, he is a whole new little boy: open, excited, happy and so much more! Perfect fit!

I was abused here by the counselors. This was way back in the 2000's but let me just tell y'all. I was refused food, locked in the bathrooms and in the nursery. I have been forced to have an accident many many times, when I would go to time out they would make me go with the lunch ladies, help them make lunch, and then made me sit all the way across the room while everyone ate. The older kids once put me in a bin and rolled me down a hill, I was left there for an hour outside in like 80 degree weather. It might have changed since I was like a small child because I'm an adult now, but it was not good when I had attended.

I am very impressed with the staff at Kindercare. My daughter loves her teacher Safa and the director Michael. My daughter only goes there 3 days but they are very flexible with the days and are very attentive to our needs. I love how they make learning fun and engaging for the kids. Plus the extra activities during summer and holidays is a great plus. I highly recommend them.

My two kids (5 yrs and 3 yrs) are both at this KinderCare. We've been with Kindercare from the beginning and transferred to this one when my kids were around 3 yrs and 1 yrs.You can tell that in general, I like KinderCare's. Between the two that I've been to, I definitely like this one better. I can tell that everyone at the Center really care about the kids: from the teachers, to the aides, to the meal preparation person, to the Directors.As someone else said the facility is clean, bright and welcoming. The lobby area feels a little smaller than other centers, but the rest of the center does not. And they make great use of all of their space and will regularly reorganize and rearrange spaces to make the best use for everyone, and make it fun and exciting.They follow a curriculum that follow the seasons. The teachers are great partners to help with potty training. They also have buses to local elementary schools, for school-age kids who need morning and/or afternoon care. They have very fun holiday activities such as trunk-or-treat, santa visits, pumpkin patches, etc.Their summer activities are really fun too. It's structured to be age appropriate for all age groups. There are sprinkler days for babies to pool field trips for kindergartners. Face painting, ice cream truck Fridays, and lots of other activities and museum visits for the big kids.The staff are always patient and loving toward the kids. And from what I can tell, the Director really treats her staff well, so that makes for a great environment for the kids. Over the years that we've been here, I've seen staff leave and return, which speaks volumes for her management style.I cannot recommend this center enough!

Both my daughter (3.5 in Preschool B) and my son (13 months in Infant B) attend Kindercare and love it! We've had such a fantastic experience there...everyone who works there is kind and nurturing. Ms. Kelly and Ms. Ilka--the directors--are wonderful. They are very communicative and responsive. They make everyone who enters the doors feel welcome. Ms. Livia works hard each day to make nutritious and delicious meals and snacks (and I can't tell you how great it is not to worry about packing lunches/snacks for the kids each day. She makes our lives so much easier!). Both of our children have had amazing teachers--Ms. Jessie, Ms. Flor, Ms. Shernecka, Ms. Uzma, Ms. Miriam, Ms. Sabiha, Ms. Jana, Ms. Roxann, Ms. Fabiana, Ms. Adrianna, Ms. Quana, Mr. Michael...I can't even name them all. Every single one has had such a positive impact on our kids. And even when the kids move up to older classes, their former teachers still dote upon them and greet them with a hug and a smile.Kindercare is amazing. We're moving next month and are so very sad to leave such a loving community.

Our family has been at Kindercare since 2014 through one change in management, but I have only good things to say about this facility. Management is on point and you can tell that they genuinely care about the kids. We have cycled through many teachers as my kids have grown and have had a great experience with all of them. Our first day, I took my apprehensive 5 year old into a room where Miss Jessie grabbed his hand and "ice-skated" over to some toys with him. His first day jitters quickly faded after that especially after meeting Miss Sharita. Transitioning from an in-home day care to Kindercare was one of the best decisions we ever made for him. On the same day, dropping my 4 month old off in the baby room, Miss Ramona eased all my fears. She has a way about her that makes you confident your infant is in good hands. Miss Livia is the KC chef and was our go to when my toddler didn't want to leave my side during drop off. Once Miss Livia entered the room, he forgot I was even there! So much time saved during drop off because of her. Miss Uzma and Miss Jana are our current teachers for my 3 year old and not only are they great moms themselves, they know how to handle a room of 10+ kids like champs. At such an impressionable stage, these 2 are showing the children how to treat others with respect and how to behave like good citizens. Ilka and Kelly have hired a great team and these ladies are just a few of the reasons we love Kindercare.

We love Braddock Rs KinderCare! Our daughter is in Discovery Preschool and loves it. She adores her teachers and comes home excited to tell us about what she is learning. The director is so friendly and genuine and we have had a great experience with them.

My son attended KinderCare on Braddock Road from April 2016-August 2016. He was in the Pre-K program with Mrs. Sharita and Mr. Brian's class. I have nothing but great things to say about the program and staff. My son can be a bit of a handful at times and the staff were always patient and loving towards him. Mrs. Sharita and Mr. Brian kept that class room and their students in line! before I knew it my son knew all his letters, colors and recognized simple sight words. Mr. Daniel and Mr. Jose also assisted the classroom as needed and again were both very patient and helpful when it came to my son and his education. The negative's of the place are, that they took forever! to cash my checks, literally took over 6wks once. The school is located on Braddock Rd and can be a bit congested and difficult to come in and out of the school. During the time my son was there they went through 3 school Directors, I have to say I was not impressed by the last one but had very limited contact with her. I highly recommend KinderCare on Braddock Rd, they also have very convenient hours for parents.
