I recently went on a tour of the program and although I liked what I saw, I did not like the…read moreattitude of the director. In my opinion, she was not very warm or welcoming to me. She kind of had a serious tone and wasn't helpful with giving me payment options and asking if I could afford it or not. She was very blunt about telling me the registration fee. It's like she was wearing a fake smile. Due to the impression that she left on me, I will not be enrolling my child. It sucks because kindercare has a great reputation and I want the best for my child but I do not want to have another interaction like that again with the director.

Words can't express how much we LOVE this KinderCare! The seasoned teachers and long-standing…read moreleadership are clear to see from first interaction. While I was nervous to start my son last July (mid pandemic), KinderCare always made me feel comfortable with the procedures in place to keep the kids safe! Now my 2 sons attend and the teachers could not care for them any better. Shout out to the infant teachers who have really raised two happy happy happy boys in those difficult months- both developmentally and mentally for me! Rose, Tia and Poli are the best! My toddler is always smiling on drop off with Janelle and Tracy. I have a demanding career in healthcare (what a time!!), and I know everyday they are so well taken care of and loved! The kids are thriving and LOVE coming to school. They are also so tired at the end of the day from the physical and educational stimulation that they sleep 12 hours straight (always helps!). I guess the only negative would be that the location might not be convenient for the work from home'rs, but I would recommend all my friends to this childcare without any hesitation, esp if it is convenient! Plus; they have an enclosed playground right on the square! Kids LOVE!

We are so thankful for Bambino's. My younger daughter went here for pre-K three days a week. Miss…read moreMickey and Miss Michelle were wonderful teachers who truly cared about our child. She was also well prepared for kindergarten this year. With my older daughter, we used another daycare in the area that was a constant source of stress for us - owner was late to open, consistently over ratio, revolving door of staff. Not at Bambinos. Everything with Bambinos has been professional and caring. Miss Donna, the owner, is a very lovely woman with a huge heart. We unexpectedly came into a bind for before and after care (and afternoon care for my 1/2 day kindergarten daughter) a week or so before school started this year. One call to Miss Donna and our problems were solved. The staff here really and truly love and care about the kids. One of our children was ill this week, and they took such good care of her until we could leave our jobs from downtown and come pick her up. They provide breakfast, lunch and two snacks. This is a relief to working parents that need one less thing to remember to do in the morning. The pre-k program had an adorable graduation. They also put on a Christmas program with the kids that will just melt your heart. The center is always neat and orderly. There are a wide variety of toys for the kids to play with, and they are always engaged in art and other activities. I cannot recommend Bambinos enough to any family looking for childcare in the South Fayette/Bridgeville area.

My son has been going to Bambinos for almost 2 years. I've been extremely pleased with the amount…read moreof learning that has occurred on a daily basis. I feel like my PreK son has been ready for kindergarten for awhile now because of the centers efforts to push education. I also have on a few instances needed to add a day and it has never been a problem even when reaching out to the centers daughter over Facebook at 10 at night the day before. I recommend Bambinos to all of my family and friends.

They maintain a level of humor and communication that belies years of teaching and parenting. Sunset Hills' curriculum hits a fine balance of play, art, and academic. My kids love going and my older two were extremely well prepared for kindergarten. Between my three children, we have been involved since 2015 and have another year to go!

It's a true community for the kids, parents and teachers. The director is outstanding and they have preserved even with covid times being the challenge that it is.

We are new to Primrose this year and have had a wonderful experience. The operational-owners are…read moreinvolved in the business day-to-day to meet parents, and staff is always available, and very responsive, to assist. Given the limitations in the industry, we have felt very fortunate for our daughter to have been placed with some of the finest Pre-K teachers we have encountered. Communication is consistent, clear and helpful to maintaining our daily routine with our child. The facility is top notch, spotless, and extremely inviting and comforting. Parent-teacher conferences were offered early in the year and proved valuable in translating the progress our daughter has made. The staff was attentive, willing, and more than able to answer all of the questions we had prepared. I would recommend this location to anyone considering a trusted, private daycare/Pre-K solution in the area.

A disgusting business. All they care about is getting their money and talking down to you as a…read moreparent as if you Know nothing. Constant emails about someone having Covid. Emails at 9:02 pm to inform that our child can't come to daycare that late at night because employees can't come to work as their homes lost power from a storm. Told our child can't come because they don't have enough staff. Told our son can't come because someone had Covid. But don't worry, all these times our child can't go they still want their 1,654 dollars. The dismiss what you say and have every excuse in the world. Our child is over fed and has a big vomit with no fever twice and we have to go pick him up. Yet the rest of the day there was still no fever and no "vomiting". Then they act like their pediatricians and know better and know our child better than we do. Miss Lauren is the only bright spot there. Our child comes home smelling like a French whore due to the large amount of perfume work by staff that they should know is an irritant for children that young. They are just pompous, arrogant, fake, superficial people who feel they're better than everyone else. It's a shame as the facility is clean and well kept. But it's ridiculous that they keep having Covid issues and staff issues they prevent us from going to work to make money, yet we better pay them their money. I would give negative stars if I could. If money is disposable and you really don't need daycare, then this is the place. If you need to count on them because you work, then look somewhere else. The new facility our child will be at is much cheaper, doesn't have the staff issues, nor do they have the Covid issues either that primrose has. We babe been told by so many people how happy our child is and they love him. Last week the fill in for Miss Lauren says our child only smiles when we come pick him up when he always smiles for Miss Lauren. Who says that? Maybe if he isn't smiling you should look at yourself. I could go on for day, but they're not worth it and if anyone reads this, you get the point.

The facility is new, clean, organized, the director (Jill) and all staff are well trained, friendly, loving, and caring. I wish I could take my daughter back there for pre-school. I recommend anyone to send their children there.

We transferred our son from the KinderCare across the street to Goddard because we weren't thrilled…read moreabout the 1 year old room at KinderCare (our infant room experience at Kindercare was very positive). Although nervous about the transition of our then 1 year old son to a new daycare, I couldn't be more happy and satisfied with our experience at Goddard. The staff is friendly, caring and professional. The owner is very helpful and takes the time to get to know the kids. We noticed a few weeks in that are son was doing much better here then at the previous daycare. The owner and staff seems to genuinely care and be concerned about the well-being of the kids. Only after placing him at Goddard did I realize they have an educational criteria which is a bonus in my opinion. My only "warning" is that they have more days that they are closed then KinderCare. They are closed for a week during Christmas and have few other days that are closed which aren't always days off at most companies. It's run more like a school. Luckily my husband has flexibility with his schedule so we manage. But the quality of care and facilities is worth this occasional inconvenience. Also you have to pack/provide lunch for your child where as at KinderCare they provided the meals. Goddard provides the am and pm snack. Now that I'm used to packing our son's lunch this difference is a non-issue.

Chartiers Street Daycare has been a great place to bring my children. The workers there are…read morewonderful and I know they love my children and care deeply for them. They are communicative and I completely trust them. The same women have been caring for my kids for 3+ years (with a few others sprinkled in). It's been great to not have staff turnover and consistent caregivers that I have grown to know and trust. It definitely has a homier, more family feel. Which I think is rare and I much prefer! I would recommend them highly!

The owner and employees of Chartiers St. Daycare are very passive aggressive and unprofessional…read more By passive aggressive, I mean that they were never willing to address our issues and just terminated us. In the cruel and highly unprofessional termination letter they snuck in our daughter's lunch box, among many other things, they said "How can you expect us to take care of your kids, when you don't?" This was even though we picked up our children and took them to the doctor, whenever they told us to. Almost always our children wouldn't have temperatures when we got home and this led us to ask questions because, as two working parents, this was affecting our livelihood. They also had us send our son to the pediatrician because they said he had thrush, but his pediatrician said it was just food on the roof of his mouth. They didn't like the doctor's finding and didn't trust the pediatrician's office anymore. Furthermore, they told our 3 year old daughter, who has asthmatic issues and frequently gets sick, that she got everyone at daycare sick, then they told us they didn't say that to her, but then told us she did get everyone sick after they gave us our termination letter. Finally, they terminated us knowing we both have full time jobs, no other daycare options, and another very complex, special needs child at home to take care of. Daycare is hard to come by, but unless you're ok with not being allowed to have an opinion and sending your children to passive aggressive, judgemental employees who can never be wrong, I wouldn't recommend this daycare.

The director is such a kind hearted person and it is reflected in how she and her staff interact with the kid. They are a smaller center. For us that translated to a warm family feel. Out so. Thrived here, developed great social skills and a love of learning. They truly felt like family! As a parent that is the goal of these early years. We had just moved into the city when we sent our younger son to Milestones. At the time we sent our older son to a local private school for Pre-K (thinking we needed to "get him in early"). In hindsight, he didn't need academic structure and rigor at age 4, he needed to feel secure, cared for and loved....knowing what I know now, I would have had him sent him to Milestones for one year of PreK while his little brother was in the 18 mo old group. For us Milestones gave us piece of mind everyday we dropped our son off...it truly felt like an extension of home!
