Let me start this review by saying: we've moved a couple of times since our son was born, so this…read moreis our third daycare and I feel like I have a lot to compare to! My son has been going to the KinderCare Edgewood facility for about six months and we have been so pleased. While they have some of the same teacher longevity issues you may run into at other facilities, I've felt that the quality of the employees and the facility is very high. The center director, Delainna, and assistant director, Katey, are fantastic. It is so nice to have a supportive group at school that feel like partners in the parenthood journey. My son has learned a lot with the KinderCare curriculum; they have weekly themed lessons and they incorporate play and learning. The facility has an indoor playground for the kids to work on their gross motor skills and work off their energy on bad weather days. They have great outdoor play facilities as well and they have a weekly water play day during the summer. The billing is also super easy - I have my credit card on auto-pay for the weekly billing and I appreciate that I don't have to think about it.

My two year old was injured while in care. They denied it happened there. When I asked that they…read morereview the tape, I was informed the cameras do not record. The cameras use to record and i was never informed of the change. We've also had issues with management following state ratios and consistently receiving incident reports when my children were injured.

Our toddler HATED daycare. He attended a rather large facility in Boone County for about a year…read more Most of the staff was nice enough, but there were SO MANY ISSUES. I could go on for days. But I digress... The Growing Place has changed our perspective towards child care and early learning development as well as far surpassed our expectations as parents who were apprehensive to keep him in a daycare environment. Clean, secure, organized, bright, cheerful and with a smart layout containing classrooms, a cafeteria, and play area, The Growing Place is aesthetically pleasing for children and parents alike. It feels more like a school and less like a place to drop your kids to hang out while you're at work. I love the cleanliness of the facility. They stress the children should be washing their hands frequently. At his former facility, he was sick ALL THE TIME. He has had one runny nose during his first month at The Growing Place. ONE. Incredible. Potty training is going so smooth and they are helping him learn each day instead of giving him set times to be changed or use the toilet. The pricing is absolutely fair, as well. I'm excited to see how he continues to grow and learn. He's so happy to go to school now and so excited to see me and show me what he's accomplished every day. Instead of running to me in fear at the end of the day, begging to go home, he stays and says goodbye to his friends and teachers and shows me his drawings or crafts he's completed that day. The updates via SchoolVine are an excellent bonus and I feel like they truly pay attention to each child as an individual. Needless to say, we are so happy with The Growing Place!

The staff has changed through our time there but everyone was great! To name a few still there...Mandy as the director works hard and always a pleasure to work with! Maria, Courtney, Sammy, Mia, Abbi and Hannah all teachers that treated my kids as their own! Loved the preschool programs for my oldest she learned so much. My son in the infants even learned sign language! I liked that they had teacher conferences twice a year so you could have that one on one discussion on how they were doing. But the teachers were always available during drop off or pick up to discuss any recent questions as well. Summer program was fun with lots of outdoor playing, Kona ice visits, bike day and more! Other fun activities through the year with visits from the Florence Fire department, library, pj day, holiday parties and fun art work being sent home on the regular! Even art work from the Infants! We would still be at Cadance but with school starting for my oldest soon we moved to a place closer to our home. If you're considering Cadence look no further! Your children will be in great hands!
