My son was born a few months before Covid hit and so I was very nervous about his first preschool experience. The Gardner school made it so easy and enjoyable for him! I especially loved that all meals are included in tuition, and the teachers were helpful with potty training. This school is very clean and tidy, and I was very satisfied with the safety precautions they have in place (locked front doors, code required for check-in/out). My son loved the themed classrooms/hallways and the staff were so friendly and kind. My job situation changed soon after my son started at the school but the staff were very understanding and we were so sad to go.

My daughter attended KinderCare Symmes from 12 weeks to about 20 weeks old. She was in the small…read moreinfants room with the non-mobile babies. The first person I interacted with at KC was their director. She took me on a tour, showing me the infants room and telling me all the great things about KC. It was close to work and the director seemed great and that it why we chose to send our daughter there. Our experience was pretty rough from the start. The baby and I were both getting used to this new routine. I was trying not to be the typical overbearing mother and put my faith in the teachers/caregivers. One of my first negative experiences was in the first or second week there. I knew my daughter had been struggling a bit. I stopped in to see her on my lunch break and spoke with the main teacher and one of her helpers. They made it seem like she cried all day every day. They asked me if she was colicky and what kind of formula I was feeding her, etc. At home my daughter was very happy, slept well and didn't cry a lot at all so I found this conversation very disconcerting. I tried to continue the conversation with the main teacher when I picked up my little one that afternoon, and at that time she made it seem like my daughter was doing great and was totally adjusted to the new environment. This was confusing based on our previous conversation (that had totally stressed me out). I followed this up by emailing the director who never responded. In addition to the awkward, poor communication with the teacher, I had a bad interaction with the co-director. She called me about some paperwork and as I picked up the phone I could hear her complaining about someone (though I never figured out if it was about me or my daughter or sometime else entirely). It was completely unprofessional. In addition to these interactions I saw the infant room over ratio at least a handful times in the two months we were there. There were older infants and toddlers all over the small infants room, exposing the babies to more germs than they should have been (sometimes touching the babies because the teachers couldn't reign them all in). The main teacher seemed very stressed out a lot of the time. Her assistants were never consistent (different people there a lot, at both drop off and pick up). It honestly just felt very chaotic. Now that I've laid out my experience and why we left I will lay out some of the pluses... The teachers and director were very nice. While communication could certainly use improvement I do think they did well under the circumstances. I really liked one of the assistants who I believe worked in the older infants room full time but helped in the small infants room in the morning. KC (or at least this location) also provides their own diapers and wipes, which was pretty big perk. They also provided formula if you didn't mind to ask them for it (you still have to bring the formula home and prepare bottles every day). And they work with many companies to give an employee discounts. I'm sure childcare is an extremely challenging field to work in. I didn't walk away with any personal negative feelings for the people who work here. A lot of the challenges we faced are likely typical of any childcare organization. But I wanted a smaller, calmer environment and more personal care for my daughter so for us KC didn't work out.

I was…read moreactually putting them in a different daycare but when I called they said that they had no record of my kids being enrolled there and put me on hold for 5 mins and came back and said they found the paperwork but from that point forward I had a bad feeling. Why would I leave my kids with someone that can't even find their papers? So I found this kindercare, and I'm honestly soooo happy things worked out the way they did, they classrooms are spacious, they offer more activities and things to do, and their playground looks super fun, my kids have never been in daycare and I was nervous but they settled all that and now I'm super confident and excited for my kids to be going here! I'll have a infant and toddler there. Very organized and clean and spacious.

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!

I would actually give this daycare 0 stars if I could! If you want to send your child to a daycare…read morefacility where they are constantly being moved around and the staff changes every month then this is the daycare for you! The place is constantly full of drama and when you're a working parent the last thing you want to do is deal with the staff telling you how to raise YOUR child! They are always looking for something to complain to you about and they are always putting their opinions in where they aren't needed or appreciated! The management is also run by uneducated people who think they know everything! I heard it's the cheapest daycare in that area but honestly for a few extra bucks send your children to a place where you do not have to deal with such problems! They've got poor staff and an owner consumed over money!

It sounds like my child would have a lot of fun here, and they have for four+ years!!! Since 2010 the day care has undergone new ownership. The new owners are a wonderful couple, Chris & Tasha! Some of the teachers do change but for the most part a lot of them are the same sweet, fun & nurturing teachers (who most of which are mothers themselves.)This center has a lot of fun activities they plan for the students throughout the year and it is affordable as well! It's a WIN / WIN!!!! I highly recommend this child care facility!
