Cobble Hill KinderCare

"The Cobble Hill KinderCare has been our child's "home away from home" since she was 5 months old and the love we have for this center, the teachers, and all the staff runs so deep. Everyone there is wholeheartedly devoted to each child's happiness and well being. The directors also create an open and warm environment for the parents & families and have fostered a sense of community among everyone that has helped us build our own little "village" in Brooklyn (a rarity for daycare centers in the area). Every single teacher we have encountered is loving, caring, and enthusiastic about teaching our now almost 2 year old and helping her grow & learn. We could not be happier with all the love and support this center gives our family - everyone there truly feels like family to us."

"We are happy with our Cobble Hill KinderCare experience. The teachers take good care of our son and he seems very happy, which are the most important measures for a daycare center. Compared to other daycare centers, the rooms are spacious so the infants have plenty to explore! Admittedly there was a bump this summer for a month when the center had to close temporarily but they did their best to place families at sister locations and were proactive with their communication of updates during a difficult time. Someone did call in a bomb threat (which was thankfully not real), but ... how are they supposed to prevent that? And the center took all the right steps in response to ensure the children's safety. We appreciate all the effort everyone at cobble hill KinderCare is putting into continuing to improve the experience for the families and kids."

"Do not send your child here. A woefully mismanaged excuse for a childcare center. We have literally had discussions about the safety of sending our child here, and sure enough over the past few weeks it’s been evacuated for a bomb threat and now shut down by the Department of Health. This is a shame because the teachers themselves are wonderful."

"What a scam. They took my money to be placed on a waitlist, which I was on for over a year. When I called to ask about my position on the list, they told me they had actually eliminated that program. But "no refunds" when I said it didn't seem fair for them to charge me to be on a waitlist for a program that doesn't exist."

"I cannot say enough great things about KinderCare/Cobble Hill! As immigrants from Colombia and first time parents, we were very nervous about finding the right care in Brooklyn for our daughter. When she was admitted in 3K at this location, I was worried as my child is a native Spanish speaker. I was afraid she might feel isolated, lost in translation, discriminated against or not understood when expressing herself fluently in Spanish. However, since the first day the teachers were respectful, kind and curious about our culture, family values, and my daughter’s language and communication skills. We felt comfortable leaving her there that day. I felt that they truly cared about my daughter’s experience and went above and beyond to make sure she felt seen, heard, celebrated and safe. Knowing that her teachers were taking the time to figure out what she was trying to communicate in Spanish made me feel so relieved. Teachers at KinderCare Cobble Hill are emotionally present and available and these allow for the co-creation of safety and secure attachments for the children. This is priceless! I very was impressed when I found my daughter speaking in English with her teachers and classmates the first week. Taking my daughter to KinderCare every morning brings me peace and joy! It feels like leaving her with family members. The entire staff is so friendly, compassionate, warm and welcoming. Every day, parents receive updates (photos, videos, meals, and other information) on the app and it's really lovely getting those updates. The space is very clean and provides great activities and toys. There is a sense of feeling at home; this is what me and my husband felt at KinderCare Cobble Hill from the get-go. We have met my daughter’s classmates and their parents in the activities they arranged for Halloween and Christmas and now we are connected with other parents from the 3k class. Ms. Brenda, Ms. Samantha and Ms. Halima and the whole staff including Christina and Yigah greet you and your child at pick up and drop off so you can ask questions about your child process and they always give you verbal updates so you have an opportunity to also get to know the teachers and staff personally. The kids are always learning and involved in awesome activities. In my opinion, the most important aspects of preschool for children are learning social skills, emotional regulation skills and socialization with peers and with other loving and caring adults. I don’t have a doubt that my daughter is having an enriching experience at KinderCare/ Cobble Hill. They have created a space and a community where children, parents and families can thrive! Gracias KinderCare/Cobble Hill’s staff, you are amazing!"
