“Under new corporate ownership as of Spring 2025, but they retained their fantastic directors and staff. We started CCDC a couple years ago with our first child in their infant room after needing last minute placement when our previous daycare suddenly closed. We have since had a second child who also attends CCDC. They are very accommodating when I have preferences on various aspects of my children's care. I like that I can send our own food from home each day. The teachers are very caring and most have been there for a very long time. The hours they are open align perfectly with our schedule of two full time working parents. They are closed on limited days, which I know is probably hard on staff, but really helpful for parents without other childcare options. Any time I've had any concerns the directors and teachers responded quickly to alleviate them.”
“We have had two children attend Stroop KinderCare and have been enrolled for about 2 years. Here’s what you need to know about Stroop KinderCare: it’s full of joy. It’s full of teachers who understand children and also enjoy them! I trust every teacher and administrator to care for my children and if there is an issue, I trust them to work together with us to find a solution. I am grateful every day that we ended up in such a wonderful place.”
“My kids have gone here for 4 years now & I wouldn’t have wanted them to go anywhere else. The staff has grown to love all 3 of them, including my oldest who no longer attends, and my twins who will soon be leaving to go to preschool. My twins still look forward to going to daycare everyday to see Mrs. Velinda, Mrs. Kristy, and all of their friends. I do believe this daycare is rated 5 stars for a reason, & that’s why I choose this location for my kids. Their last day is approaching & it will be very bittersweet for all of us. They will remember these lovely ladies forever (:”
“My 12 yr old went to wee-haven and graduated pre-k there. After I had my 3rd child, I was having a hard time with childcare. This was the first place that came to mind. My daughter loves it here just as much as her big brother did. We love wee-haven, and all of the teachers!!”
“The dedication and talent of the teachers here are truly remarkable. They go above and beyond to ensure each student receives a top-notch education tailored to their individual needs. ?I must give a special shoutout to Miss Kim, the executive director, who is not only incredibly passionate about education but also incredibly hands-on. Her leadership sets the tone for the entire school community, fostering an environment of creativity, growth, and support. ?From innovative teaching methods to a nurturing atmosphere, On Purpose Academy School provides everything a parent could want for their child's education. I highly recommend this school to anyone seeking a holistic learning experience that prioritizes both academic excellence and personal development. ??”

“We love all of the teachers and staff here! They are all so patient, kind and experienced. They make being away from our little one so much easier because we know she is in great hands. She has learned so much in Miss Mo’s class and shocks us everyday with what she has learned. Thank you to all the wonderful teachers and staff that put in so much hard work to make everyday great for our daughter and all the children in their care.”

“Playtime Nursery is by far one of the best programs in the area. I appreciate how convenient the hours are, being that I work early in the day. This school welcomed my family with open arms without a hassle. Most importantly, my kids love it here. Ms. Terri and her staff are such great mentors, leaders and supporters. Thank you for everything.”
“My kids have been here since around January and I have no complaints, the director and assistant director are both awesome and helpful with any questions and my kids love their teachers”
“Sending my girls to Kids R Kids in Springboro has been one of the best decisions we’ve made. They absolutely love their teachers and classmates. The staff is incredibly helpful, kind, and always going above and beyond for both the kids and parents. We absolutely love this facility and everyone that works there, from the teachers, front desk staff, director, chef and all those behind the scenes. I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you for being so good to my kids!!”
“I am a parent of boys in the center. I had two, but one goes to a school they don't transport to so we had to have other accommodations.My older kid (7) loved his time here. The teachers actually care about the kids and treat them like little adults and respect them.My younger kid (3) loves his teachers and his friends. There have been incident reports to him and from him, but the staff has been great about helping protect my kid. He is treated like royalty here when he walks in. Every teacher knows his name and gives hugs or high fives.I would highly recommend the staff of this KinderCare for the amazing years we have been attending. The admin and teachers are second to none. Now, if we can find a way to pay them more without raising tuition, or using more of our tuition payments to give them raises they so rightly deserve would be great. I hope corporate looks at this review and gives this center the recognition they deserve (and hopefully with more than a pizza party. )”
“Ms Tina and her staff are the absolute best! The facility is clean, has nice and well maintained facilities, and outdoor and indoor play areas! The staff takes amazing care of a daughter and they feel like part of the family. I’m lucky to have this KinderCare location in my village:)”
“We have had two children go through The Goddard School in Springboro with great outcomes and positive experiences. Our first struggled with some behaviors and I appreciated how upfront and open in communication the school was to guide him in the right direction and prepare him for Kindergarten. He was ahead academically from the preparation he received at Goddard and had a very easy transition into public school! The school promoted lots of family time together with events on weekends and additional child care for parents night out. All around a great experience over many years!”
“The leadership and staff care about the students and parents. They were very accommodating to us as first-time parents with a first-time daycare-going toddler who needed some extra emotional support.”
“Beyond happy with the care we get. Words can’t say enough. Not only does Goddard create a safe environment, but fosters our child’s growth and learning. He has grown so much and we have Goddard to thank”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Primrose Centerville! Three of our children have attended over the years, and we’ve loved everything about this school. The staff truly treats us like family, and we always feel welcomed and safe. Our kids have attended from age 3 all the way through 3rd grade, and even after they’ve aged out, they still ask to go back! The before and after-school programs are fantastic, and the summer programs are a highlight—with field trips and so many fun activities that keep our kids engaged and excited to learn. Primrose Centerville is a wonderful place, and we’re incredibly grateful for the warm, nurturing environment they provide!”
“Since the new Center Director came on board this KinderCare, the difference has been incredible. You can immediately see how much effort she’s put into making the center not just look nicer, but feel warmer, more organized, and truly welcoming. The classrooms and common areas are cleaner, brighter, and more inviting than ever before—it’s clear she takes pride in creating a space where children can thrive.
What really stands out, though, is the way she interacts with both parents and children. She’s always present, approachable, and genuinely kind. You can tell she cares deeply about every single child and family, and it shows in how smoothly things run now. Communication has improved, the staff feels more connected, and there’s just an overall sense of positive energy and professionalism throughout the center.
The changes since she came on board have been nothing short of amazing, and I truly believe this KinderCare is in the best hands. If you’re looking for a center that feels like a second home—where your child will be loved, supported, and well cared for—I highly recommend this location!”
“The Goddard School is a fabulous institution where our daughter has excelled in her education. The atmosphere is friendly, inclusive to all families, and centered towards a well-rounded curriculum for the students.”
“My two youngest children attended Ebert KinderCare since they were infants (2017-2023) and I cannot imagine them having been anywhere else. We live in a time where you can’t just leave anyone alone with your kids but the women at Ebert KinderCare always ensured their health and safety and were more like family to us than teachers. My kids were more than academically ready for kindergarten when their time at Ebert was up and I genuinely attribute their social skills on the dedication of the women in this center. Thank you for everything you’ve done for our family. I’d give ten stars if I could!”
