Very proud to see all the hard work employees, volunteers, and guests commit to serving the guests of the Poverello House. Becoming a volunteer is quick and easy, the orientation tour is great as well. Highly recommend getting involved. Also got to meet Mama Mary in the mailroom and she was so sweet and I love to see how involved she is.

He was done in 30 minutes, as I have a small solar array and an easy roof to access.

The Central Valley Ronald Mc Donald House has a special place in my heart as since my undergrad…read moredays in college as I would volunteer my time frequently. Now that I work an 8am to 5pm plus, caring for niece and some weekends I work long hours, I haven't had a chance to volunteer my time as I would like. However, during my time here I mostly made sure the families who were here had everything they needed to be comfortable whether it was home cooked meals to gardening. I love gardening so I would plant flowers or make sure the weeds are pulled so families can go outside and look at a well kept garden. Even small stuff like that definitely goes a long way and even the little children love it and sometimes the little ones would want to help out. I helped put on a movie night in which at the RMDH I watched Frozen for the first time so this place will always be special to me. I cannot wait to come back and volunteer my time here. If you have the opportunity to do so I would highly recommend. I love Valley Children's hospital and what they do for our kids because you never know when you will need RMDH. Definitely a great place to give back to the community!

I wholeheartedly believe reviews can either sway an individual or family in the selection of their…read moreexploring the next best thing. I read all the reviews listed here. Most which had been more than 5 years ago, and it appears a lot has changed since then. That said, I have to do my due diligence to leave a review. I had enrolled my son (7) to KKRB in 2023 for the convenience it is across the street from Riverview Elementary where he attends school. We want the best care for our cubs, right? So we scope out the ideal place with the people that provide the proper care for our babies. At the beginning I had found the staff to all be very kind, caring, and compassionate with all that they do. Gradually, overtime, I kept receiving reports that my son is defiant, bothersome to others, and it's your son, your son, your son. The bigger picture? My son's needs weren't met (he has asthma, doesn't want to play outside and was urged to be outside). As he may be defiant or bothersome to others, I empathize the annoyance of such behavior, but he has special needs. He is formally diagnosed not just with one diagnoses, but with two. The staff was informed, but in the course of time, I felt unwelcoming vibes and the off energy of wanting to be there to care for my son. My son verbalized he hates it there, and others are mean to him. I know my son has a lack of interest, too transparent, and non-participant of activities. BUT he has ADHD and Autism. He isn't a victim of these, nor does this define him. However, I believe all staff should be educated in the care of kids with special needs not just with my sons' diagnosis, but with any kid that comes through those doors for your services. People who work/care for kids should be certified or educated with the tools on how to manage these types of babies/kids. We all need to be made aware and educated than to be ignorance of the stigma in that it is the kids behaviors and not the care providers. Only then, we can foster an environment for kid's personal and developmental growth. Thank you!

The staff was friendly, especially the ladies at the front desk. Those were two very big positives. They also fed the kids which was nice. However, my child kept getting incident reports, multiple a day. I started to feel really down on myself as a parent. I didn't know what to do because the behavior wasn't the same at home because she's an only child. I got calls to pick up my child, but I was at work. It was hard. I understand safety is important but my child was not even 2 years old yet. She had to be taught and sending her home wasn't teaching her. She never bit a kid. She was rough or ran from teachers in the class and on the play yard. I feel like that's normal behavior for not even being 2 yet. She needed exposure and to be taught the expectations. I don't understand how she could be doing such bad things to be sent home. I finally ended up pulling her because my husband was told she was sitting in the office for an hour crying the whole time. My husband took off work and picked her up and she was sobbing and couldn't stop. He sent me a video and it was awful. Toddlers should not be treated that way. I didn't feel comfortable. That was not appropriate punishment for her age. I teach 5 and 6 year olds and we don't have them sitting and crying for an hour. I never took her back. Safety is important, I know. They said they were following rules, okay. I completely understand them having to follow the rules. It was just not for my child, so we left. She was there about a month. I waited to review because at the time I didn't know if my child was just THAT uncontrollable. No. I feel like she needed to be taught and needed AGE appropriate redirection/consequences. She's at a new daycare now doing great for the past 8 months!

The employees all seem pretty nice & my son has came home each day and said what a blast he's had. I like that they provide meals & so many different activities for the kids. It's a little pricey but worth it if you need care. I also like that they don't charge for the hours and that it's a one-time fee for the week. You can drop them off between 6:30am and pick them up at 6pm. The parking can get a little packed but it's a great place for your kid to be if you need care!
