The Early Childhood Kindness Center-Amherst 785 Millersport Highway, Amherst, NY 14226

"If you are looking for a family based daycare, look no further. I couldn't recommend a place more for their trustworthiness, kindness, and just a great daycare all together for my son. My son has medical issues and they are always on top of them i.e. they had extra training for my son's sezuries so they know what to look out for. All the teachers in the infant room are so friendly and treat all the kiddos as their own. All the staff is all smiles everytime you walk into the building. The director, Erica is the kindness person you can meet. Everytime I pick up my kiddo, she's always playing either with the toddlers, infants, or even preschool kiddos. She always sends updates to my email all the time. Miss. Sam in the infant room is my sons favorite teacher. She made the transition from being home all the time to daycare so much easier. The staff there is like family. While we are going through a hard time with my sons health problems, they made my day by writing me notes, and giving me a little gift. I really appreciate the staff, for being so supportive during the difficult times we been having."

"This is my son’s first year in daycare. I was extremely nervous about leaving him with non-family members, but the teachers at the Kindness Center have put my mind at ease! They take such amazing care of their kiddos and know exactly how to make them feel loved and safe. I am so glad I decided to enroll my son at this facility and am thankful to be able to go to work knowing my son is in amazing hands :)"

"This center has gone above and beyond for my two kids. The director is amazing and always makes sure she does everything she can for my oldest who struggles with his environment. Mrs. Chris and Mrs.Sam are like my kids second moms and they absolutely adore my children. I truly couldn’t ask for a better staff to be looking after my kids. I worry a lot and they put my mind at ease. Thank you to the KC family for everything that you do for our littles ❤️"

"My little one started at the Kindness Center in June. We were previously at another facility with the same owners and Director, Erica- so when the KC opened at a location closer to our house, it was a no-brainer! As a pediatric OT, I have been in many, many facilities to see children for therapy. The thought of how some of those facilities operate made me nervous to put my son in daycare to begin with, but the Kindness Center has been nothing short of amazing since day one. It is a smaller facility, which allows the children to get more individualized attention. It is clean, organized, and exhibits strong, open communication. My son LOVES his teachers, and has loved Miss Erica since his first daycare! All of the staff are extremely kind, patient, and loving towards my child. I can go to work on the days he is there, knowing that he is in great hands, learning new skills, having lots of fun, and being loved the way that my husband and I love him. We are so thankful for the wonderful ladies at the Kindness Center and would recommend care here to any of our friends and family!"

"We love the Kindness Center! The teachers are wonderful, and my child feels their warmth everyday. My child is thriving there and learning so much in an environment that is true to its mission. She’s developed close connections with several of the teachers, even some of whom primarily teach in other classrooms. They all know her name and welcome her each day with a big, genuine smile. Furthermore, the center always feels safe and clean. I had my child elsewhere for a month prior to finding the Kindness Center. In that month, my child never adapted, and it just didn’t feel safe. When I visited the Kindness Center, it was a completely different story. They have strict cleaning procedures and follow best practice guidelines for safety. My daughter adapted to the Kindness Center in two days, and I believe this is because she felt safe and because the teachers truly care about the children and understand how to facilitate positive and genuine interactions. We are very fortunate to have found the Kindness Center, and I’m so glad we switched!"
