I loved the teahcers at the little Patuxent center. They were very kind to my son who is a handful!!
My son attends the KinderCare on Crabbs Branch Way and has been for a long time. He loves his school and his teachers. I think he has a wonderful learning experience. He is the phonics and math programs, both which I think have done wonders for him. I would recommend this school with out any reservations.
My daughter is in three years old class in Kindercare on Crabbs Branch Cetr off Shady Grove Rd. I would say the place might not be bad for children under 3, but it is definitely not a wonderful place for children who are at the learning age. The environment is kind of messy and the teacher doesn't have the patience to communicate with parents. My daughter had very good artworks even when she was 2 and in another daycare. However, she does not have much to do here. Good thing is she will change her daycare soon. I can only say the teachers do matter for children.
My son has gone to this Kindercare center for a couple of years. I have wonderful things to say about the teachers - they are loving and involved, both the Preschool and Kindergarten teachers have given wonderful scholastic training and were easy to talk to about my son's progress or any concerns I had as a parent. My only complaint is the admin, not very good with handling even small issues - payment processing is a nightmare (even though I set it up automatically it was always being lost and requested for repayment). All said, my son has had a good experience and I believe it has helped prepare him for elementary school.
Very spacious school. Teachers and the director are very nice. My kid is in the two year old section. However I didnot like the school much and given a second chance would not put my kid again in this school. I have the following issues with this school :- 1) Every morning when I dropped him the twos and threes class were coupled together (round 7:45 pm). I wished that the twos were kept in there own class, as early mornig it used to be a little intimidating for my kid. 2) Also at the end of the day they are supposed to give the 'my day form' daily,but often times I was never given one. 3)No formal education given. More emphasis is on play. Other then these, its an okay school.Teachers are friendly and they do wait for parents to pick up there kids beyond the closing time of 6:30 pm without any complaints.
My kids attend the KinderCare on Sioux Lane in Gaithersburg, MD (but there is no link for that particular center so I'll put my review here!). Our kids started at this center when my daughter was about 22 months old and my son was about 4 mos old. My daughter is now 3 and my son is now 20 mos. We love this Kindercare! The teachers are fabulous, well-qualified, loving, well-trained. They engage in stimulating, age-appropriate activities, they are nurturing and mature and my kids love them! They have lots of supplemental activities to round out the day (although the standard curriculum is exceptional) - activities such as ballet, gymnastics, Hooked on Phonics and Math. They cost extra but are well worth it. The administration is great too. I'd recommend the KinderCare on Sioux Lane to any parents in the Gaithersburg/Germantown area of Maryland!
