Winfield KinderCare 151 Geneva Road, Winfield, IL 60190

"My daughter has been with kindercare for 2 years and I am beyond pleased with how the director and teachers are with my daughter. Everyday at drop off the teachers receive me with a warm welcoming smile and are very communicative with any issues or goals my daughter has accomplished. The director is very helpful with any question and concern I may have. I highly recommend this place for your child. I want to give thanks to Ms. Paula, Sue, Ms. Alejandra and Ms. Zorreh for your outstanding job with my daughter."

"Winfield KinderCare is amazing, the staff is thoughtful and assertive. I always am greeted when my child and I walk in. I definitely recommend this center for any of your child care needs"

"My son (9 months, full time) and daughter (6 Yeats old, only when school is closed) goes to this daycare. I absolutely love the teachers, correspondence and fun curriculum they provide daily to them! I see photos of daily of what they teach and my daughter begs me to take her there. Zohreh, the director, is so helpful and wonderful. She works really hard to send reminders and keep us up to date on things happening. I definitely recommend this facility. I also appreciate the correspondence on the app very much."

"This facility will not wow you and will not be for you if you are looking for high tech and new. This location is an older style KinderCare with only true rooms for the youngest kids and the open/half-wall style "rooms" for the older kids. We ended up at this KC out of shear need due to unresolved issues at another "high-end" daycare. After 7 months here with the original plan for this KC to be a temporary stop, we will be staying put. Both of our children seem happy, well taken care of, and relatively well stimulated during the day. The half-wall rooms have not ended up being an issue for our eldest who has some noise sensitivity issues. Both kids come home with fun activities. Our eldest has learned so much from the Pre-K teachers and they have really embraced him and who he is. This location has gone through some director/assistant director turnover. We joined while there was an interim director and the transition to the new full-time director was smooth. They are still looking for the right fit for the AD it appears. Teacher turnover seems to be relatively low to average. Both of my kids have at least one stable teacher and it seems like it is more teachers shuffling around within this location to find the right teaching pair/room fit more than leaving the location. Communication about these teacher shuffles sometimes is less than adequate, but with at least one consistent face I don't find it to be huge issue to me. One thing this location needs to work on is incident reports. My eldest will tell me "mom there should be an incident report in my folder. I had a bad fall on the playground." and there is nothing in his pick up folder. I think that is more a teacher issue than the location as a whole as my toddler seems to have adequate incident reports for obvious scratches, bumps, etc given to us at pick up. Overall, we are very please with this location. Like all daycares there are pros and cons, but it has worked out so well at this point there is nothing pointing us in the direction that we need to leave. I also appreciate the lack of general intensity at the facility. Coming from a "high-end" daycare with non-age appropriate high expectations of 3-5 year olds both academically and emotionally, it has been a breath of fresh air to not feel on edge all the time. The teachers have loved on my kids and met them where they are and embraced them. We discuss large issues like hitting, etc but other things like not sitting still, etc are dealt without much parent interaction. If they had to ask us for advice it is less about our son's behavior and more about how the teacher can adjust to help him."

"At first I liked this daycare when my child had the first teacher. Then she left. Then for several months up until I took my child out there was no main teacher. It was just whoever. After her main teacher left I had a few different problems come up. My daughter always seemed so unhappy leaving her there. Also the report said she ate most of the food. Yet she was always starving when she came home. After I took her out she was no longer starving in the afternoon and looks happy. Often times she had marks and bruises and there was a few different accident reports. Dropping her off at times sometimes there was not even a teacher and they were in the room alone. I have no regrets pulling her out after the main teacher left. It's unacceptable for no main teacher for as many months till I took her out. Who knows if or when there was one. The main teacher filling in she did not seem to be happy around ever and no kids in the class seemed happy."
