My nephew has been attending this center and he is always so happy to go and excited to see his teachers and friends!! We have seen so many updates as of lately, new supplies, furniture etc.. and he gets excited to see what is new. He absolutely loves all of the arts and crafts and sensory play. read more

Our daughter has been going to Kindercare for a couple of years now. She started with Ms. Ami and Ms. Kelsey (both are outstanding!) and has continued to develop strong connection to her teachers. She gets excited to see her friends each day and enjoys the activities they do together. It's comforting to know that she's learning, playing, and being well cared for by a team who takes interest in her wellbeing. We feel well-informed of the week's activities, able to communicate any concerns and know they'll be addressed. read more

I am very disappointed by the way things are handled here. Let me preface by saying this was the ONLY daycare within a 2 mile radius that had room for my son immediately. I called an absurd amount of daycares and in home sitters, all of which had a year wait if not LONGER. That have been my first red flag. My son attended TWO days here. Two. This is not the first time he has been in daycare. I worked at the first one he went to so I would be able to see he was being treated right. I know the workings of a daycare, so I brought him a few packs of wipes (only one was brand new) and an entire package of diapers. I was told from an inside source (an employee) who had proof, that they saw his teacher screaming profanities at my son. Tell him to "shut the F*** up", "You're annoying" "Stupid" and a few others, all because he wanted his mom. The first day he came home, he was COMPLETELY bruised. Head to toe. I was told I would be given an incident report the next day, and after I asked repeatedly, I was given a report for another child!! Careless teachers. I had my dad pick my son up the MOMENT I heard about what happened and he never went back. I was told I'd receive a follow up on Monday (this was a Friday) and after almost 2 months, I hadn't heard back. I left numerous voicemails, and sent messages through their app. The director Karen at first seemed concerned, then didn't care when I finally got frustrated and told her this was unacceptable. I would tell ANY parent to stray away from this hell hole. No child should feel unsafe, or be treated poorly when daycare costs more than my 700k house mortgage. If Kindercare (Farmington) sends me some snotty rebuttal reply, to try and make themselves look better, read between the lines. This is an absolute horror story if I've heard one. read more

We looked at 15 daycares all throughout the Salt Lake Valley and came with long lists of questions that intimidated some of directors we spoke with. To be honest, we are the "high maintenance" family. We ended up driving 1 hour a day in the wrong direction just to take our son to KinderCare. We LOVED Miss Ami & Miss Michelle and the other teachers and directors! They paid great attention to detail and reported daily on what he did new or what was off. They were warm and loving and knew each child so well. The kids were always clean and cared for. When you have 2 teachers to 8 babies you might expect lots of crying but Ami & Michelle were able to multi-task and keep the babies happy almost constantly. Our son loved his experience there. He would get so excited to see the teachers! We have moved out of state and have interviewed 10 daycares, so far none of them hold a candle to KinderCare. They truly are they best! read more

I had my children in the Farmington KinderCare location for two years. I can say the teachers who were there consistently were amazing and attentive to my children. I am grateful for the care they showed my children. However the turn over is high. For me this speaks to leadership. The director is nice on the surface promises a lot of seemingly great things. Her follow through is poor at best. There is minimal support or training for new teachers. I was really turned off when I overheard her discussing another family's situation with a teacher in the hallway. When I have come to her with concerns she did a very good job of telling me what I wanted to hear. However, there was never any change or follow through. I finally made the decision to pull my kids when I found out that my daughter would be moving into a class room with 20 three year olds some of which are yet to be potty trained. The class room has no changing table. The teachers will be cleaning and changing students who have accidents on the floor of a bathroom where they will have little to no visualization of the rest of the class. I came to the director my concerns and she dismissed them stating "licensing says if the door is open to the restroom then the teacher is included in ratio." I sincerely cannot understand how one teacher watching 19 students while another teacher is on the floor of a bathroom where she can barely see a quarter of the classroom is appropriate. This is not safe and I have a hard time believing anyone would be ok with their child being inadequately supervised. For me this is the final straw in a long line of disappointments with her leadership and follow through. My experience with the teachers was amazing and I know my children and I will miss them, but I could not allow my daughter to be in class that was structured in an unsafe way. If you decide to bring your students here my advice is to take what the director, Aimee Sill, says as half truths. Aimee's job is to sell for her it is all about dollar signs. read more

Our son used to go to the Centerville location and 1month prior to the end of the school year for 2014 they told us that the center was closing and we needed to switch to another Kindercare or find other day care. We decieded to switch to Farmigton Kindercare with the agreement from the centerville director that our rates would stay the same for the first year. With-n the 1st month at the Farmington Kindercare, our monthly rate was risen by $200. They stated that they will not keep our rates the same. In July they raised the rates again another $50.00 per month. It is Now August and our rates have risen to $300.00 more per month than what we have been paying for the last year. The explanation for this rate change/hike is their corp office sees the per-capita rate in Farmingtion and demographically people who live here can pay more money. NOT TRUE. Just becuase we live in a city where there are some rich people doesn't make everyone rich. My son (7) was no longer happy when he came home from daycare. He was sad and stated that it was a hard day. The teacher of his class has her son in it too, who happens to be a bully. The teacher to student ratio is good for teachers who actually pay attention to the children. There is no structure. If i can get one good thig out of this deal it woudl be to have at least one person refuse to go to this daycare due to the lack of actual 'CARE" your child will actually receive, and the fact that they just think you live in a certain city that you have money for them to just TAKE FROM YOU!!!!! DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE!!!! TAKE THEM OUT!!! read more

My child joined KinderCare in late summer of 2020. All the COVID precautions were in place to enable a safe environment for children and staff. This meant we didn't get to meet the teachers, but walked into the lobby, sign in, temp check and then hand off. There was some shock and tears from my almost 2 year old, but he went. I was nervous given we were also new to the state, and we moved during a pandemic, but I choose KinderCare because of their curriculum. I felt better as the day progressed because of the KinderCare app that they use provides status updates (bathroom, food, nap), pictures and video. The staff does their best to keep the parents informed via the app and has made the best of the COVID limitations. The director and teachers are also on top of notes you send or questions you ask via the app since you can't go back and talk to the teacher at drop off and pick up. Having been part of the daycare scene for the last 11 years, the Farmington director is one of the most involved and hard working daycare directors we've seen. read more

Our child has been attending this Kindercare location since she was 6 months old. I truly appreciate the attention and care she receives here. She is still in class with children she started with 4 years ago, and her teachers from when she was an infant still wave and ask about her every time they see us. I feel she is in safe and capable hands when I leave her in the morning, and she is happy when we pick her up in the afternoon. Thank you to everyone, especially management, Miss Ami, Miss Crishelle, Miss Selena and Miss Kenzie! read more

After just three weeks we decided to enroll our Son elsewhere. This daycare has no plan in place to deal with children who repeatedly misbehave. Children will be children, but for those situations where one is hurting another then there should be a plan to improve. Our Son had been bit twice in less than 2 weeks, by the same boy, which broke the skin both times. We asked the director what the plan was to correct the issue and she responded by saying that it was confidential. This is a nice facility but that is about it. We didn't feel it was safe to keep our Son enrolled here. I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

I have three kids at this Kindercare and have interacted with a lot of the staff. I feel like I can talk to them about anything--they make me feel very comfortable and try hard to meet the needs of my family. read more

I have been thinking of writing this email for almost an year. My daughter, Weiwei, just turned to 3 years old. She goes to kindercare in Orem (UT), since she was 8 months' old. We love this center. The directors there, Karen and Crystal are very responsible. Once there was kids super fuzzy or sick, they would hold the kid and take him or her to her office, giving extra attention. The teachers, like Gina, Kristen, are super nice and professional. There were pictures taken and sent home almost every day. There were also all kinds of activities. My daughter wants to go to daycare every day. So when we moved to Farmington, UT in 2013, my husband and I decided we had to buy a house close to Kindercare. And we did. But we are so disappointed to the center in Farmington. The first 6 months, my daughter was hit, bitten, scratched by other kids once or twice every month. The teachers often write the report or chat with each other, leaving the kids screaming and crying by themselves. I talked with the director everytime accidents happened. But I didn't see much improvement. I seldom got my daughter's pictures, maybe 3 or 4 times in the whole years. The activities they did is very limited. The teachers never came up to my daughter once we drop her off and she was crying. You will never see this in the Orem center. And you know what, the tuition is $200 more than the Orem center. I hope what I write here will make some difference. read more
