Parents are encouraged to drop in, and daily report cards inform us about her going's on (and are honest). I think anyone who visits can see that the staff ENJOY interacting with the kids and the kids are enjoying an environment is stimulating. I have no concerns whatsoever about her safety, or the heart of the staff. Doing the math on the money: given that two adults are taking care of 10 or less kids, feeding them three times, and keeping them occupied with clean well-maintained toys and stuff in a safe environment; frankly I think it's a great deal. A really great daycare.

I have visited multiple daycares in our area searching for one that felt like my son would get the…read morebest care/have the most fun. I have never sent my child to daycare so I was very hesitant and nervous. I had my aunt come with me on every tour I went on, and we both agreed on so many things. Kinder care we both agreed felt the most comfortable, welcoming, and just more at home/down to earth. For the price you pay for child care we expect to be able to show something for it, whether it be excitement at the end of the day, or fun activities, anything really. And Kinder Care provides that. My child was nervous going to daycare as was I, this was a huge step for us both. He's 5 and I was waiting for the water works to start as soon as day 1 came. But to my surprise he was excited, I think the fact that they had some kind of activity everyday planned out got him interested. Not only that but as his parent I felt comfortable when they actually looked out for my child. Day 1 we walked into his age group and he was uncomfortable, wouldn't leave my side, didn't talk to anyone. The director Eryn came in after watching him and told me she thought he would be most comfortable in another classroom. I said whatever you think, we pulled him into a different age group and the difference just walking into the other classroom compared to the first was HUGE. He immediately sat down and started playing and he wasnt even nervous anymore. Its been a few weeks since we started our journey and I currently have nothing negative to say. He is so happy every time I pick him up, tells me all the stuff he is doing, and is getting some great interactions/making friends. I also want to add I love that everyone seems to recognize everyone. It didnt take long before staff just started knowing not only my child's name but putting my face to the child. I also have to give a special shout out to his teacher Miss Denise, he thinks she is the best! She has also been super helpful in being extra considerate when he may have a hard day here and there and not only do I appreciate it, but he does too. He said she really cares.

My daughter actually pulled my grandbaby out of this program a while back, and a big part of that was because the way the front office carries themselves I'll never forget the day I went in there to pick up my grandbaby. I had a simple question about the sign-out, and the way the lady from the office spoke to me... it was just demanding. It was not just being "busy" it was a "better-than-you" attitude that made me feel like a nuisance just for standing there. At my age, I've dealt with plenty of schools and programs, and I know when someone is looking down their nose at you. It's a shame because you're trusting these people with your heart and soul, but they act like giving you a respectful answer is doing you a favor. If the admins can't show a grandmother some basic professional respect, they probably can't show a grandbaby any respect either, you know what I'm saying?

It has been a home away from home for our four children over the past several years. We are grateful to send our children to a school that challenges them academically, provides a Christ-centered education, and promotes a traditional Christian lifestyle. Our children have attended both the English and Spanish immersion programs and they have both served our individual children with excellence. As a family that receives the Indiana School Choice voucher it has also been affordable. The teachers clearly enjoy the students, their colleagues, and the school's administration. Parents are welcomed and encouraged to participate in day-to-day activities as well as the many fun and fellowship events. Our kids have enjoyed clubs such as spanish club, dance club, and sports at Covenant. In addition to Chapel each week they enjoy music, art, and physical education classes. The Covenant Christian School families exhibit the Christian life by participating in various service projects organized by the school. Great things are happening at Covenant Christian School and we are so happy to be a part of it.
