I absolutely love Kindercare Escondido, my child has been enrolled since the age of 3 and is now nearing 9 years old the development, skills achieved, love and respect given, has always surpassed my expectations as a mother. I am beyond grateful for the teamwork of Amy & Jessi the directors here who always strive to make each day a perfect day for every family enrolled. I a Lm the lingering parent, I will stay and chat and although they're super busy they never make me feel guilty for not being ready to walk out of their building. It is a safe welcoming environment, each teacher hired has been nothing but amazing. Everyone is so easy to communicate with and makes you feel like a part of the family. I've never been happier than I have been here with Amy and Jessi. If my child could stay here forever, I would continually re-enroll until they graduate high school.

Such a wonderful daycare filled with thoughtful teachers. Ms. Grace and Ms. Vicki in the discovery preschool are awesome and our son loved going to school. He never came home with a sad face. We will miss them a lot! Ms. Amy and Ms. Jessi (directors) we’re very professional and trustworthy. We would highly recommend sending your child to Escondido Kindercare.

Do not trust this place my mom lives right behind this place and the teachers verbally abuse the kids and yell at them at the top of their lungs. I volunteer at preschools and the way the children cry here is unacceptable. I have reported the school, emailed and called with no response. Don't walk away from this place RUN!!This place is a nightmare the way the children are treated daily turns my stomach and makes it hard for me to even focus on what I am doing hearing the way they treat the children. If you truly want to make change you need to investigate your staff, be around and maybe install cameras. It is seriously a shame and you all should be embarrassed and disappointed. When I last reported the craziest teller teacher she was quieter for one day that's probably what is going to happen again after this review. All the teachers are involved and outside together and this behavior is the norm. The only time the terrible yelling gets less is right around pick up time how convenient. I want every parent that goes here to investigate them. If my child went here I would take my child out as soon as possible and run from this place. Please I am begging you to investigate your employees and staff the children deserve better. The maltreatment is awful and I will be recording the audio to submit to the local police department because I am tired of it. They yell at the children and have said things like I'm not going to give you water all day!The noise from a school or children playing is fine with me. I enjoy children. The teachers here do not and daily verbally abuse them screaming at the top of their lungs as children cry historically. I have had it with this and you all aren't doing anything so I will. They got my last removed somehow but I'm going to keep posting until they make changes.

It's not easy leaving your kids with other people, but we have always felt confident that our LO was in good hands with Kindercare (we absolutely loved Ms. Kim). They are excellent with communication, put the safety of our kids first, and the amazing Ms. Amy is always there to answer any questions and give advice. They are like family now, highly recommended.

My son was at this daycare for nearly 5 years. They kept up with him, and his needs. He was happy and made friends with other kids. He started Kindergarten, and finished 1st grade with the KinderCare staff during the pandemic. With all the obstacles, my son thrived. I know for a fact that his teachers and peers had a lot to do with that. The staff was welcoming and friendly on our first day and through our last day. We only left the KinderCare family because we moved. This center is amazing!

My 3-year-old has been going to Kinder Care Escondido for almost 6 months and we absolutely love it! The staff is amazing with so much heart and caring mindset; the Director Ms.Jen and Co-Director Ms.Amy really care about the children and work with the parents. During these trying times with covid, they have implemented necessary social distancing/mask etc. measures to keep the children safe. My 3 year old loves his teachers Ms.Starr and Ms.Jasmine! Definitely made the right choice by choosing this place! I would recommend this daycare to anyone that is looking for quality care and great prices!

Center Director, Jennifer, does an amazing job communicating to the parents about everything going on at their center. When you call, you will most likely talk to her or Amy, Asst. Director. I believe that to be great service for a concerned parent.I show a picture of my son here having fun playing dress up. They provide daily pictures/videos of your child on their app, which is nice to see when you are missing them at work.I believe their prices are reasonable since they feed my child a nutritious breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack. They also don't charge me extra to change my son's diaper so potty training is not rushed. And there is no limit as to how many hours I can keep him there within their hours of operation. All I have to provide is a blanket for naptime, extra pair of clothes, diapers and wipes. Everything else is provided!My son started there at the beginning of November 2020. Before then, he had been cared for by his aunt and another local babysitter, so being near a lot of kids was a change for him. He warmed up to the new kids and staff within the week. Now, he goes in with a smile and comes out babbling about his day. He's 1.5 yo at this point in time of this review so no real words yet, but I believe he has definitely reached his milestones because of his amazing care done by the KinderCare Escondido staff.

As a new mom, the idea of leaving my baby at daycare when going back to work was pretty daunting. My husband and I had looked at a few places before calling KinderCare and spoke with the director Jennifer a few times before scheduling a visit. Just from our phone conversations I felt more at ease, but getting to meet her and the staff in person and see where my daughter would be all day really sold me on this being the right place for her. I won't pretend that the infant program isn't on the expensive side, but I 100% feel like we get what we pay for in terms of care. That alone is enough for my husband and I to justify the cost, but it doesn't hurt that Jennifer and the assistant director Amy are incredibly sweet and friendly and the infant teachers are extremely communicative and hands-on (shout out Ms. Jessica and Ms. Melissa). She really seems to enjoy her time there and I love that she gets to interact with other kids. Also, no bouncers or swings so she's getting lots of that beneficial floor play and tummy time kids her age need.I also really enjoy the app they have. I not only get daily reports of how my daughter is doing, but they post the cutest photos and videos of her. Getting these little updates throughout the day definitely makes this mama worry less

Our daughter, who is going on 5 years old, has been with Kindercare since she was 18 months old. We are extremely happy and satisfied with the level of care and education provided by this center. The entire staff from Director to Teachers are amazing with each and every child. I especially appreciated their constant communication to us parents about anything and everything pertaining to our little ones (especially during the past year with covid). Kindercare also offers an app where you get daily updates including adorable photos and videos. Nutritious breakfast, lunch and snack are provided, which make it so easy and convenient for me as a parent not having to pack and send food. Furthermore, their cirriculum is creative, interesting and challenging. It always a great feeling picking up my daughter at the end of day, where she literally hop/happy walks out of school indicating she had a great day. I would recommend this center, no doubt!

Both of our kids go here. Our 6 year old has been attending since he was 2 and our 2.5 yr old has been attending since he was 4 months old. The ladies here truly care about the kids and do a great job. We relied heavily on their help and flexibility during COVID. Thank you Kindercare Escondido!

Kindercare is the BEST! My oldest went there he is now in 2nd grade and excelling in school because of the good education he received at KindercCare. My youngest still goes there, he is learning to read and write, he will be more then ready for Kindergarten. The center is always clean and the staff is fantastic. I highly recommend KinderCare.

As a first time mom, I was more than a little anxious about leaving my son with anyone, anywhere, let alone for an extended period of time. Upon my first visit to this specific KinderCare location, I felt so supported as a mom returning to work. Amy, Jessica and Melissa all worked with me to figure out which bottle my son took the best from day one. We have been here for nearly four months and it is clear that the entire infant staff and beyond truly cares for my son. I am so thankful for each of them!

The was the first day care my daughter went to at about a year old. It's always so clean, organized, she was always well taken care of and I never had any issues. I moved to VA recently and placed her in a new daycare and didnt realize how good I had it at kindercare!! I miss this location so much! Jennifer and all her staffing were absolutely a family. Please move to VA!!!
