Every day, my husband (SU prof) and I (hs teacher) knew that we were bringing her to work with teachers, administrators, and support staff who knew our daughter well and cared for her, taught her, and loved her like she was their own. It is so hard to leave your child in the care of others, but those extra-special people at Kindercare make it feel like leaving your little one with family. We were incredibly happy with the curriculum, but more happy that each day is play-centered. The other students and families are kind and great community. Every teacher knows each student in the school - truly, it is a special place that we will both miss and recommend.

We just started and moved from another daycare and you can tell this one is better! There's more curriculum, healthier food, the teachers are so kind and patient and VERY capable, and my daughter is so happy and CLEAN at the end of the day.

If you can get in here, please don't hesitate, it's top notch. And being in the federal building, it's secure. I also love that they include what she is developing when she does an activity (motor skills, etc). And you get a detailed report at the end of the day!

Gingerbread House

Our daughter has been enrolled here since she was 6 weeks old and it was the best decision we have…read moreever made. We love the staff here as they have so much compassion and love for the kids in the center. In the infant room the teachers are very flexible and make sure the infant's day is as close to a day at home as possible. They allow you to bring in food and snacks from home once the infant is old enough for solid foods and have no problem adjusting to any meal substitutions. Our child loves coming to the center and lights up every time she sees her teachers. They incorporate age specific activities in their curriculum to further the child's growth. Education is a big part of the curriculum in all classrooms which is very important to us. The Gingerbread House was voted best daycare center in Syracuse for a reason and I would highly recommend enrolling your child(ren) here.

The staff in the infant room have all been warm, bright, creative, patient, and so awesome at responding to the ever-changing needs of our little girl. She had not been in daycare before--we had a sitter who came to our home--and they worked with us to help make the transition as easy on her as possible. And, as she has grown and developed, they have provided new activities to keep her engaged. (Shout out to Ms. Alyssa, Ms. Katie, Ms. Hillary!) Walking in, you frequently hear the joyful squeals and chatter of children in the older classrooms. The setting is great, too: big outdoor play areas, lots of grass and trees, and the kids get plenty of fresh air and exercise. I just can't say enough good things about our daughter's experience there. Ultimately, I knew we made the right choice enrolling her at Smart Start because, when I would come to pick her up, I'd peek in the window, or stand around the corner where she could not see me--and my girl always looked happy.

Now that my kids are no longer in their care I can post. My girls have been going to childtime on…read moreMorgan rd for about 6 months it's been nothing short of hell. I was in a bad position and needed care for my girls. In the beginning it seemed bumpy they had issues getting emyahs dietary needs met she has an allergy to soy and apperently me saying that wasn't enough. We got that fine tuned. Then they had a boy bullying and HITTING my child daily. Spoke to the director and it stopped stell loved her teacher and so did miss mckenzie and a few others were part of the reason it was so hard to leave. I'd like to note the indcidents typically happened when they took their breaks or lunch and fillers were in the rooms. My daughter has asthma and for months I had a hard time getting them to use her neb while she was struggling to breathe. Come to find out albuterol and inhalers are considered emergency need and ANY facility can give them. She ended up with rsv this season after being sent home 4 times being told she had a fever over 101 leaving work early I would get to the facility no fever in sight I'm talking 97-98 my child was a miracle child who's fever vanished in 20 mins along with the extra teacher in that room as soon as I got there. Again my youngest has an issue with being fed soy this time I'm not so understanding if you're aware of an ALLERGY your cook should be aware of that they're cooking. Went to the director nothing was done. Another little boy start hitting my child every day I'm filling out paperwork that the director would litterally hide in her office and say nothing to me she has been kicked in the back , slapped in the back of the head had food crammed in her face and down her shirt, by last week she was crying and attached to my leg every time I went To drop her off which is very unlike stell this whole time I'm looking For care for them. They're on several waiting lists. After my daughters rsv they bumped her albuterol treatment to which the director advised I would need an entirely new packet filled out (after a week of doing the new treatment) so I get the lower dose and figure at least she is getting something they only kept up with it for 2 days and then she would start coughing they would call me telling me she had a fever and needed to go home when I arrived to no fever they would say well we woke her up and she was coughing and looked like crap we gave her a treatment so that may be why she's better.... Ya think the security lock on the door is for show it doesn't work. The director is a joke she would go to staff and make fun of the fact that I would say things to her saying oh well you know how she is. How? A caring parent? The last time I got called for no fever I lost it on her I told her I had missed multiple days of work had to pay for back up care for her all for her to not be sick. I took her to the doctors at these point now yes Myah has been sick but she's also been on steroids, albuterol and antibiotics she had croupe and a double ear infection which I willingly took her to the doctors for same for the rsv I took her to the hospital on a weekend and didn't bring her back until she was fever free for 3-4 days. Following this I found out no one in that room had been advised of emyah having rsv. They had kids with green boogers dropping down their face throwing up everywhere and still in the infant room. By this point I had enough. Their last week the same little boy "got mad" and scratched my daughter, threw things across the room and at kids and staff and was not sent home. Another child had lice they never sent home a message to parents I found out from a friend who works their most of the little details. Bringing in children with behavioral issues is never a problem but don't expect my four yo to be aware and react to that the same knowing this he should have had aids to assist. My youngest had a rash from being allowed to sleep for over 4 hours so bad she was bleeding mind you no rash was had in the morning. I dropped her off their last day with 3 bottles of milk my child was offered 1! At the age of 1 when she cannnot advocate for herself they let her go without all day one bottle is not acceptable. I'm so happy to say my children have a new daycare! When someone leaves their children in your care you should understand there is a level of trust once that is broken good luck getting the nice side of them!

The child/teacher ratio is extremely skewed during evening pick up, and it is obvious the few teachers present during that time are overwhelmed with the number of children they are responsible for. The children (of varying age groups) are herded together in either in one room during the winter or inclement weather, or out on the playground during nicer weather. There were several occasions when I picked my child up without the teachers noticing me there, and certainly no acknowledgement whatsoever of my presence. It's important to note that this facility is located within the Salina Town Hall, and criminal court takes place once or twice a week starting around 5pm. While on the playground during pickup, children are exposed to the inmates coming in from the county jail for their court appearances. Needless to say, our child is no longer in attendance.

It was quite a long wait list to get into the school but well worth it. The programs they offer isn't someone just "watching your kids". It's more than that. They constantly keep my son intrigued in learning and involved with the daily activities. He honestly hated going at first (being the first time away from mom after 32 months). But now he loves going. He tells me the night before how excited he is to see his teachers and classmates. Even for Halloween, teachers put little pumpkins outside, creating their own pumpkin patch and had all the kids go "pumpkin picking". When I picked him up we were able to take his baby pumpkin home together. It's the little things like this that I appreciate. The time they take to sit down with my child, and talk with him, give him patience and kindness, and understanding. That is the best thing they can teach my son, and what I am most grateful for! Thank you to all the staff at LAYG!
