My child attended this location a short time before we started our vacations, in that it was pointless to pay for time when our child wouldn’t be there. None the less during this time the care was great. The facility from the space I seen was clean and children appeared happy. The director and assistant answered all of my questions and I appreciated receiving the photos/videos of my child throughout the day. I would enroll my child in KinderCare again and plan to once my work schedule is consistent. I did find difficulty planning part time or full time hours for my child based on my varying work schedule and paying tuition for set days regardless if my child is attending or not. Other than these things it was great. Meals were fine my toddler did not eat them however this was his preference nothing on KinderCare, my child enjoyed the classroom and gained confidence here he was welcomed safe and not mistreated.

All of the teachers and staff are just wonderful! I trust that my daughter is getting the best care and education while she is there. She has only been attending for 3 months but I can tell she has learned so much, and she seems to love all of the activities. I appreciate what they do to educate and ensure the health and safety of every child there. Highly recommend Kindercare! :)

We have been loving Kindercare Hudson for over 5 years and will continue being a part of this wonderful community until our littlest moves on to school! The teachers are loving, caring and knowledgeable and the director/asst are hands down the best - positive, hardworking and communicative!

AMAZING. Staff is AWESOME and love your kids as if they were their own.We were worried about sending our 10 month old to daycare during the pandemic, but this is the best time to send your child. The safety measures and cleanings they have in place should put you at ease.I love seeing the multiple pictures throughout the day and the daily reports are super thorough and helpful. They ensure your child is served a healthy diet and he tries so many different foods for breakfast and lunch. If I ever have any questions or concerns, I send an email or call and they respond quickly.I highly recommend KinderCare in Hudson. I know our child is in great hands and so well taken care of.Thank you for taking such great care of our little man.

Kindercare by far is one of the best daycare programs for children. I have watched my children bloom over the years of attending. My two oldest are now in school age, and my youngest is 3 years old and she has attended the Hudson location since she was 6mths. The amount of growth I have witnessed over her time in the program is amazing. The CD (Sara), AD (Alex) and teachers are very professional, warm & welcoming. Curriculum is always implemented as well! Great daily communication through the kindercare app. I do not check it daily but when I look at the app, I am always astonished by the things I see. Communication is top with the team. Whenever there is a concerns, issues are addressed promptly! It melts my heart for my daughter to wake up every morning and say “Mommy, I want to go see Ms.Jessie and Ms.Sara, I want to go to school”. That speaks value into the school and the program. I feel safe to take my child to school everyday because I know she is in good hands and her health and safety will always be the number one concern. Although we have to get accustomed to change every now and then, the Center Director Sara makes sure we are engaged. The engagement at the center is A1. Thank you Hudson team for all you have done to help my babies grow! && thank you Sara for going out your way to communicate with me daily because I do not read my messages in the APP! ❤️😊

My children have been at KinderCare of Hudson since they were 4 months old (oldest is now in Pre-K). I cannot say enough good things about KinderCare. My kiddos have thrived while their parents are working thanks to the amazing staff at KinderCare. Not only do I feel my children are safe, well cared for and loved by their teachers but they are also being taught so much from such a young age. They get to do so many different activities that I would never be able to facilitate at home. KinderCare also has an app where the teachers post the activities each child did that day along with picture throughout the day. As a working mom, it puts my mind at ease when I see the HUGE smiles on their faces as they are playing with their friends or doing their lessons for the day. This also allows for easy communication between the childs team and parents. The staff have such a passion for little ones and teaching and helping them grow. We have always referred to KinderCare as school because its not a place they go to just be watched all day. Its a place they go to learn and grow, just like school, but in an age appropriate way.Through the COVID-19 pandemic, KinderCare has been open with their communication and following CDC and state guidelines very strictly. while the center was closed they continued to send daily content to help parents and kids continue to thrive. This has been another huge benefit to being a part of a National company. When the center re-opened in June, I did not hesitate to send my children back. 3.5 months later the center is still following the guidelines very strictly and not a single day has gone by where I felt my children were unsafe going into this environment. In fact, the social and emotional interaction they are having with their peers through these challenging times has been priceless for their health. During a time when nothing is normal and everything is changing, they have the normalcy of school, their routine and their favorite teachers.

I absolutely love this KinderCare. They are always super helpful, all of the teachers get so involved with the kids, even the ones who arent in your childs class. I even tried a different daycare closer to home but it wasnt the same and we came back after a month. My son loves all his teachers, and they love him too. I would recommend this center to any family!!

We have had an amazing experience with Kindercare. Our youngest has been enrolled since he was a toddler and is headed to Kindergarten. His teachers have all been integral parts of his development and have worked with us on everything from potty training to Kindergarten prep. We are confident that he has a bright future in front of him, and has had a great start at Kindercare.

My wife and I spent months researching and visiting multiple daycare facilities in the area until we finally settled on the Kindercare in Hudson on Darrow Rd for our daughter and we couldnt be happier with our decision. The staff is amazing and caring with years of experience. Ms. Kate is an amazing director who is extremely involved with every family and Ms. Kathy, Ms. Emily, and Ms. Erin take great care of our daughter. You know it is a special place when your childs face lights up when they arrive to school and see the teachers. I know my daughter is happy here and I would recommend this center to anyone I meet!

My child doesn’t go here and THANK GOD they don’t. I’ve never as a parent felt my gut turn more in ways it shouldn’t. I’ve toured a few other child care centers in the area but this experience was by far the worst I’ve had- hence the review I’m about to write.We were first led to the front office for a chat with the director. While there, the director didn’t seem the least bit interested in making sure that we we had her undivided attention. As a parent, choosing a daycare can be stressful and intimidating. You want the very best for your child. She kept answering the phone (I assure you each time was not an emergency and could’ve waited) during the few minutes we were in the office. Talk about bad first impression. Not only that, but I was informed that they didn’t have room for my child full time and my schedule for care would never be the same? 3 days one week 2 days the next....1 day after that. It all seemed very odd. What’s the point of paying for day care if you can’t rely on it? Also, couldn’t you have told me this on the phone so I wouldn’t have wasted my time coming in? Anyways, on with the tour. Next it was time to go see the room where my child would be cared for- the infant room. On the way to the room, We passed several teachers in the hall, none of whom said hello, smiled, or appeared genuinely interested in my child unless called upon by the director. They just didn’t seem happy to be there, not to mention, very welcoming- which is concerning because in my opinion, happy staff = well-cared for children. We finally get to the room at the end of the hall and it’s like a “switch-off” occurs before my eyes! The Director introduces me as the wrong name to a head teacher and then goes to feed a baby so this teacher can now tell me about the inner workings of this room. The teacher doesn’t ask me any questions, just goes straight into her well rehearsed script about what it’s like to care for children in this room. “Bottles must be labeled...diaper changes occur at this time...toys are sanitized using this cleaner...” great, but It was like I was listening to a robot. So impersonal. Paid no attention to my child, whom I was holding. I looked around while she was talking and noticed that the babies in this room don’t seem to get any form of individual attention either other than when it comes time to get fed. There were no toys or books in reach- they were all put up. Why? So kids were just crawling around in circles not knowing what to do because they didn’t have anything to do!! Some looked uncomfortable because they had slipped down into their boppy (supportive pillow) and no one came to readjust them. I’d seen enough.Call me picky. Or better yet, please call me a good mother who wants the very best for her child while away at work. Can you tell I’m disturbed? I hope so. Parents, whatever choice you make, follow your gut. I certainly followed mine yesterday with kindercare in Hudson. They won’t be earning my trust anytime soon.
