My daughter was enrolled in this dysfunctional preschool for a brief time last year, and I'm…read moregrateful that she is no longer involved with this poorly structured organization. If you've read the other reviews that were posted on here, you're already aware of the quality of environment these children were dealing with on a daily basis. My daughter would cry buckets whenever I would drop her off every morning and couldn't wait to come home at the end of the day. She still tells me stories about some of the things that happened while she was there and my heart breaks every time I hear them. Whenever there were staffing issues, you would be left hanging at the very last minute, which put a hurt on me financially since I was dependent on their services. Plus, their billing department was always changing, never being up front and honest about how much money you would have to pay for their services. Shame on the staff at Hershey KinderCare!

I would NOT recommend The Hershey KinderCare Center to parents of pre-school age children (3 and…read moreup). This center in particular has had a lot of staff issues recently and have been under investigation by their own regional office for quite some time. It is evident in how they handle dealing with normal behavior that could and generally does arise with children of this age. They are under staffed, which does not allow them to provide the quality time nor dedication that children of this age critically require. Instead, they will mandate that your children be outside in the play area a majority of the day (yes... in severe heat as well as cold)... And mix your preschoolers with older children without the proper monitoring, which will obviously set your young impressionable children up to learn new things that are not necessarily age-appropriate or in their best interest. Parents... if your children are currently attending this center, please keep a tight monitor on what your children are learning as well as communicating to you. Children of this age are very impressionable... But they are also honest to a fault... so please listen carefully and believe what they are saying... challenging with staff if your gut tells you to do so! Individuals that are currently running that center (Colbee and Amanda) May have the credentials to be there... however do not display the common knowledge it takes, which can't be just self taught.

They make a huge effort to include parents in the daily accomplishments their children via multiple email updates with pictures throughout the day, which makes me feel I'm not missing out on quite so much while at work. The school encourages and nurtures cultural diversity both in the student/family population and within the curriculum. The facility itself is clean/organized and the faculty are always friendly and know every single student by name! Many of the teachers have been there since opening in 2012 when my child started there as a baby, and to me that speaks volumes about the dedication the teachers have to the children and that they are treated well themselves by the employer. Happy teachers mean happy kids in my opinion!! Not only have they retained an incredible staff, there are many families that have also been a part of this school since day 1, some with multiple children as their families have grown, again speaking volumes about the family environment and quality education that is provided. Additionally, they follow strict guidelines regarding food safety, allergy awareness and hygiene-believe me I have received many emails regarding slip ups if I don't properly label my child's food items etc, again reassuring me that my child and the other children in her classroom/school are their priority.

We thought it was a great place however there were many secrets being held that the employees kept from the parents (because of the love they had for our children). The pastor made unilateral decisions AGAINST the child care center board of directors decisions and removed several of the employees for personal reasons (these were employees who were actually sticking up for what is right for themselves and the children of the daycare). The pastor then got in front of more then 100 of the centers parents at an emergency meeting and said he was the reason the Flock was so well run (when in fact it was because of the director and amazing staff that he had just fired/put on probation). We immediately pulled our children (although we both work and had no backup childcare). We felt that the best interest of our children was not the primary concern at this center. Numerous other parents did the exact same thing. Some of our friends remained and we have been told it has not gotten any better - fluctuating staff, pastor still way too involved in the daycare and lack of organization. We were devastated that this could happen, especially by a man of "faith". I would never send my kids to this school and I would advise you to keep looking. As we found when we started our emergency search for childcare after this all happened - there are several much better options in the Hershey area.

We have been dealing with a phorid fly infestation for a month and a half at the rental property…read morethat we moved into two months ago. The phorid flies land on our bodies, screens and food, so it makes cooking, eating, showering, working, and completing graduate school papers extremely uncomfortable. After a month of trying to rectify this issue, we are desperate for a resolution. We called Penn Pest last Friday and they were able to provide more information about these insects. Michael went above and beyond in trying to help us determine potential breeding spots. He listened patiently as I explained all of the measures we have taken, such as applying Invade Bio Drain gel and Gentrol Insect Growth Regulator multiple times to every drain, using Fly Web glue board light traps, taping all of the drains, clearing the previous tenants' hair and debris from the drain, pulling the weeds that had been neglected by the previous tenants, sealing cracks and gaps in doors, reinforcing weather strips, abstaining from cooking and eating in the home for a month, scrubbing scum and debris from the drains that were neglected by the previous tenants, cleaning the the garbage receptacles made dirty by the previous tenants, suspending use of all garbage receptacles, and maintaining a nearly sterile environment. He confirmed that everything we have done is the correct approach for eradicating phorid flies. He also confirmed that there's a strong possibility that the phorid flies are breeding in the organic film that lines the pipes above the trap. Michael was honest with us and let us know that as an extermination company there is very little that can be done for flying insects with such a short gestation period. He recommended that we seek the services of a plumber who can properly assess the property for a sewer line break and/or organic matter in the drains that the Invade Bio Drain gel could not reach/remove. Michael even offered to speak with our landlord about the behavioral habits of these pests. This experience alone is enough for me to recommend this company. They are fantastic and competent experts in this field. We would not hesitate to hire their services if we purchase a home in this area.

There's no order at all. During lessons, children wander off and do whatever they wish, and the teacher doesn't even try to stop them.

They do not care about your kids. Send your children somewhere better, where they're actually cared about.

In all the times I dropped off and picked up I never once saw a single one who ever seemed genuinely happy while interacting with a child. One teacher in my oldest sons room would actually borderline yell at some of the kids, I personally observed this on multiple occasions. One day during drop off she snapped a very rude remark in a much louder and harsher tone than normal conversation at my son because he attempted to get out some toys which they had already apparently cleaned up prior to his arrival. As he was supposed to know this? Through all the hot August days I would pick them up off the playground and they would be hot and sweated with no water bottles. The water bottle I packed would be empty back inside their cubbies in their rooms. I commented on it one day and a teacher replied "we'd be going back and forth to the bathroom constantly if everyone had water bottles". Apparently taking already potty trained kids to the bathroom is too much to ask? The icing on the cake which led to immediately withdrawing from the center was when my oldest son came home with a hand print on his arm. He was 4 and no longer napped, however the 4-5 year old classroom had a 2 hour nap time each afternoon where they expected him to sit and play quietly on a cot. For 2 whole hours. He struggled with this, as I'm sure most 4 year old boys would and they didn't want to put the effort into finding a solution. One day he came home and told me about how the teacher that day was mad at him for not being quiet during nap time so she grabbed his arm very hard and made him sit in a time out chair in the corner. When questioned she said she gently led him to another area. Gentle enough to leave a handprint, I guess..... We paid almost $1000/month for him to attend UGRO and they actually asked me to pack him a bag of quiet things to do during nap time so he wouldn't disrupt the other kids. Total lack of desire to foster kids development and growth. Do NOT waste your time looking at this facility. The director is kind and sweet and you will think it's a great place but do not be fooled. The staff are absolutely terrible and could care less about your child.
