Our daughter has been attending KinderCare for several years now, and we couldn't be happier with…read morethe experience! Ms. Mary, the director, is truly amazing--her dedication and leadership make the daycare run smoothly and create a warm, welcoming environment for all the children. We'd also like to give special recognition to Ms. Erin, Ms. Nasnim, and Ms. Anrica in the 4A class. They do a fantastic job making learning fun and engaging every single day. It's clear they care deeply about the kids and their development. We're so grateful to have such a wonderful team caring for our child!

Our son, Jack, was enrolled in the Infant program at Shadygrove KinderCare, and we were so sad to…read morehave to leave when we moved. It was clear to us that Jack loved being at KinderCare, and that his teachers, Ms. Sandy and Ms. Nazek, really loved him. The level of excitement they had to see him each day and even the way they talked to him made it clear that they genuinely cared for our son. The worst part about moving was having to leave his teachers, and we would recommend this KinderCare in a heartbeat to any parent anxious about leaving their infant (Jack had to start at eight weeks). When we found out we had to move, the Center Director, Mary, was extremely helpful as we worked to find a new childcare arrangement where we were moving to. Again, we would absolutely recommend Shadygrove KinderCare and especially Ms. Sandy and Ms. Nazek to any parent looking for peace of mind that their child is somewhere where they are loved and cared for.

Love love love this daycare! It's the best and I recommend it always to all my family and friends…read more The place is wonderful and very welcoming. My son had some bad experiences at another daycare and it made him really scared to go to any daycare. On the first day he tried it out he didn't want to leave and it's been that way ever since. I have been with this daycare for 3 years and I'm very satisfied with my experience. The staff is wonderful, welcoming, understanding and very helpful. The director Danielle is amazing!! She's understanding and anything you have an issue with or anything you need you can talk to her. My son has many favorite teachers but Mrs. Adriana is the BEST! Shes an amazing teacher and care taker. This daycare also works with an app that allows the teachers to tell me how his day is going with pictures and I can see the schedule for the day. When my son was younger and still potty training I got updates when he used the potty as well! I also loved the safety they had. Every room has a camera so the director can see what's going on in each classroom. Both the door to enter the building and the door to go to the hallway to get to the kids have a code on it, double security so not anyone can just get in. You get a lovely tour of the place and on the holidays they do special crafts and parties. They do before school and after school care and pick up kids at school too. They also do class pictures and "school" portraits so you can purchase lovely photos of your child. Again I can not recommend this place enough! If your thinking about it , take the tour because you get all the information you need and you won't regret it.

When I got through the doors the halls reminded me of a health institution for mad people. I did not see colors.... I did not feel a good vibe. The tour was short because honestly they don't have too much to offer. It's sad because they want you to pay $1420/month for a 3/4 year old M-F for that?? I don't think that's worth all that money. It should be cheaper. They only have one room for 3 year olds and a tiny play outside area. Sooooo tiny. The classroom was a bland boring tan color. That center needs some life. It smelled horrible in the classroom I went to. When I got in there? I was ready to leave. The teacher Ms. Jessica? I believe....was a doll. I like her... some other company needs to take her to another place because her personality doesn't fit the building. I may have came on a bad day? I don't know? But they are a no on my list.

The center does a good job with Covid protocols and keeping us updated daily with pictures. The bi-annual parent-teacher conference is also much appreciated. Our son comes home with something new every week, whether it be a new song or reciting the entire solar system. Our family and I would like to shout out a big thank you to Ms Tochi and the center for doing a great job. Even 2 weeks after we move and had to switch our son to another daycare, he still says that he really misses Ms. Tochi's class.

*Broschart/ShadyGrove location*…read more My son has been with the center since he was an infant and we truly appreciate the love he endures each and everyday. As an added bonus, meals/snacks are included, daily updates (with pictures), payments are done online, and minor issues are addressed immediately. My son has allergies and enzyme and the center has gone over and beyond to accommodate him. Your child will be in great hands at Nanda Learning Center. Each child is treated like family. Thank you to Mr. Mohammad and his amazing staff (especially Ms. Aliyah) for their exceptional service and the comfort you provide to us.

All parents worry, they only seek the best for their little ones. My daughter and I toured a few…read morecenters together when she was roughly months old. I felt like Goldilocks, one was just too big, too full of kids and not enough oversite; one was too small, and The Children in the Shoe in Olney... Well that one was just right. Within mins. of starting our tour, my sweet little girl was fast asleep in her carrier. We had found her home away from home. She began in the infant room and has been happy transitioning through her development phases. Now my daughter is in the 3's classroom and I am just as happy with the Shoe as I was during our tour. The teachers have been amazing, transparent, and loving. They communicate, are informative and best of all responsive. The directors to everyone who attends the front desk, each and every one of them are welcoming every single day, how is that humanly possible?! When you step inside, it's a small community. It is very common to find parents, teachers, children, and staff greeting each other, and having short quick conversations. During one of the many conversations that I had with my daughters 2's teachers, they mentioned that her speech was delayed. I loved that the teacher shared her concern and didn't hold it for a more formal parent / teacher conference. Since then, the teachers and staff have been extremely accommodating in welcoming her speech therapist into the classroom on a regular basis. It is home away from home! My little one has had her fair share of bumps and bruises, I know that with every bump, scrape and bruise she gets, she receives twice as many hugs and cuddles. At the end of day, during pick up the teachers make it a point to actually see the parents, talk to the parents and work daily to create a positive connection with the patents. If they are willing to do that after a day of teaching and loving their students - they must be super heroes. I know after a long at work, all I want to do is go home and relax.

I can not speak highly enough about my experience at Children in the Shoe. It has been my…read morechildren's home away from home for the past 7 years (daughter went from 3 months until 5) (son 2 months to current at 2) . the care they receive there matches what I would provide at home. i went to visit a lot of centers because I thought no one would care for my children like I would. I wanted to be a stay at home mom. Until I met Stephanie! she put me at ease from the get go and out with with all of my nerves from day one and with each classroom change until my daughter graduated. She was even there for me when my mother passed away. the shoe is a family that i am happy to be a part of and I hope it continues for years to come. I have two very happy well adjusted kids and their daycare plays a roll in that. Each teacher seems happy to be there and really loves each child and you can see that just by walking around. I wouldn't want my kids anywhere else. We love the shoe!

Since switching my daughter to Kidstop Child Development Center in 2023, I couldn't be happier with…read morethe change. From the moment we walked in, the environment alone gave me peace of mind, it's warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for children to thrive. My daughter is now 4 years old, and I've watched her mind expand in incredible ways. The growth I've seen in her has been amazing, she's become more independent, intellectually curious, and confident every single day. The staff at Kidstop are incredibly attentive. The way they care for the children is unlike anything I've experienced before. I also love knowing that while I'm at work, my daughter is eating healthy, balanced meals and staying active. The center does a wonderful job planning family events, which really makes it feel like a community. Brandy, the director, is exceptional! She truly embodies the phrase "it takes a village." She supports both the children and the parents, and her presence makes such a positive difference.Parent-teacher meetings are another highlight. I always look forward to hearing how my daughter is doing, what she's excelling at, and where she can improve. The feedback is so thoughtful and helpful.The positive changes I've seen in my daughter since enrolling at Kidstop have been nothing short of inspiring. I learn new things from her all the time, and I'm so proud of how she's growing. I'll genuinely be sad when the day comes that she outgrows the center because as a parent, there's no better feeling than having total peace of mind when you drop your child off each day. Kidstop has been a blessing for our family.

First off, when I called Kids Stop the lady named Angel's personality sold me to come in for a…read moretour. She was informative and knew her stuff. Did not feel like she was reading something off of a sheet of paper. My tour today (May 25th, 2017 1:30pm) with Sylvia was perfect! She was 1.Friendly and kind 2. Knew all the answers to all my questions 3.Empathic since she has 5 kids of her own (She does not look like she has 5 kids) But the Child center was great for all these reasons. 1.Welcoming and colorful. (This was my 5th daycare tour in Rockville/Gaithersburg 2.Kids were all happy when I came in for a tour. 3.They have a huge play ground area 4.They offer classes like cooking for an additional small fee. 5.They give 10% off discounts to a list of companies. 6.Teacher student ratio is 1 to 10 kids. AMAZING! 7.It didn't smell like a dirty diaper when I walked in. 8.Security window and door. Love it! The pricing is a little on the higher end of my budget honestly but you get what you pay for. At least you know your child will be in good hands. I am have this on my top two and will make a choice soon. I'm waiting on a job offer letter that will determine which daycare my 3 year old will go to. And if I get it? I'm bringing my kid in here.

There was some staff turnover in my older child's classroom last school year that wasn't ideal, but the current team is fantastic and seems really committed for the long haul. The teachers are caring and attentive, and it's amazing to see how much progress both kids are making, especially when I compare to peers at other schools. My 3y/o is writing words already(!), and my infant is getting way more attention and support through bottle-feeding transition, crawling, teething, etc. than we ever got at my eldest's first school. 7a-6p hours are great for us (both working parents), and above all, both of our kids are happy and genuinely thriving here. As a parent that's all I can really ask for.

After meeting with Kellie, seeing the staff, and facility, we enrolled our 2 year old son. He loves it. Every month has a theme, and days of the week have specific activities.

Ms. Danielle - Science; does interesting and fun experiments with the kids. Ms. Farzi - Works with the kids on cooking, singing, etc. Mr. Dwight - Maintenance and Cleaning; Friendly guy who keeps the place clean. Often have a good chat with him. More people interact with our son, but these are the primary people I have gotten to know. KinderCare has been extra cautious and supportive during the COVID-19 crisis. We looked at our other options in the area, and chose this one based on programs, staff, and facility. I wish I could have gone there.
