We had a really great experience with this Kindercare. We had our 2 year old son there for just…read moreover a year. The director while we were at the center, Devon, was really excellent. She was super quick to respond to our emails and questions, very friendly, and very competent. We also liked the majority of teachers that we met who interacted with our child. The only complaint we made during our time there was that during drop-off and pick-up things always seemed a bit more hectic than they needed to be -- it seemed like having another teacher in there during that time would have helped. The other challenge was teacher turnover, though I imagine this is fairly common at any daycare center. Of the 12 or so teachers we met, five moved on in the year that we were there. Luckily they ended up being replaced by other great teachers. Our only reason for leaving is that a 10% discount on two children was still much higher than us just hiring a nanny.

The staff is friendly and very caring and make him comfortable every morning at drop off. I'm very happy I chose this site when picking a child care provider. The director Joanie is very helpful and very informative for just about any situation. In the short time I've had dealing with this provider she has helped me immensely. If Joanie doesn't have an answer or a solution she takes the time to find out what avenues or people need to be involved to solve the problem. Thank you for all you guys do and thank you for caring for our children.

I have lived here since they opened same unit and have paid a yearly increase and never been late with a payment. When I approached the property manager an tried to explain how the proposed rent increase would make me homeless she responded that was not her problem.

I have began looking for a daycare center for my daughter and I stopped into KinderCare this…read moremorning to see if they had any brochures with information on curriculum, tuition, etc. There is a doorbell in the entryway which you have to ring, however after ringing it multiple times and waiting, a parent who was leaving let me inside. I then waited for almost 15 minutes while there was the constant sound of crying children, but no one came to the front area and no one was visible in either the office or kindergarten area (again, this was after I had rang the doorbell requesting entry). Finally, I gave up and just left, never having the ability to speak with anyone. Perhaps this was unusual, but it doesn't inspire confidence in me and does not make me feel comfortable with the idea of leaving my daughter at this center.

Our son has been attending the KinderCare on Low Street in Newburyport for about a year and a half…read moreand I would highly recommend it. I was worried about sending a five month old to daycare so early but the kindness and attentiveness of the teachers here made it much easier on me. This particular location has a full kitchen and they provide breakfast, lunch and afternoon snacks which is a huge help for busy parents. They also have playgrounds based on the child's age and the teachers love getting the kids outside in the fresh air. Every day they play games, sing songs and create art work that are all tied to learning. It is more of a school than a day care and they have a great curriculum that they share with parents so we can include the same topics at home. The staff is wonderful. They are all very kind and they truly care about the kids and parents. It is also extremely clean. They also released a mobile app that I get updates and pictures of him throughout the day. If you are looking for day care, or school for your child, you cannot go wrong here.

I have known Di Ciruolo for several years now and I'm so proud and excited to endorse her business!…read moreEver since I've been a mom, Di has offered help in recruiting nannys for me! I'm beyond busy and overwhelmed (Aren't most moms?) much of the time, especially since the addition of baby #2. I'm not sure where or how Di (mom of 2) finds time to do what she does (she must be superwoman) but she tirelessly sorts through resumes to find the most appropriate nanny for each family! I am so thankful to have her in my life and I know that any time I need professional help (and, knowing that the person is a safe, decent member of society) that she will be there for me! Can't recommend Di or SITTER STUDIO highly enough!

She is freshly coming off of moving into a new home with two babies... a two and a half year old fun and feisty young girl and a 4 month old colicky baby. On top of that, her husband had the new house in a state of construction chaos! Needless to say, she was feeling MORE than overwhelmed. I suggested that she check out Sitter Studio, as I'd heard good things. Dianna Ciruolo came to the rescue and went out of her way to interview several candidates to be her mother's helper so that my sister could finally unpack some boxes! She could not be happier. There is no greater gift to a new mom other than the gift of time, and Di went out of her way to find someone qualified to help. They have weekly dates now and this mother's helper has greatly come to the rescue!

My daughter is now 11 months old and she continues to learn something new every day that she's with Sandy.

The teachers at the center so clearly love what they do and take pride in their work. Our little guy is greeted warmly every day and even when drop offs are hard I know he's in the best hands.
