Sprouting Up Kids 922 South Hatch Street, Spokane, WA 99202

"Irresponsible staff, between months of December and January, our 2.5 y/o daughter was constantly getting sick. In addition to the viruses, the teachers were letting her play outside without proper clothing, and on multiple occasions did not change her wet clothes after playing in wet snow. They were converted into a Christian daycare and did not give a proper notice to the parents. We asked them not to give candies to our daughter, but they were keep giving her candies and other junk food. Also, we did not the fact that they were watching cartoons on iPad and/or cellphone in the morning and in the evenings. The director stopped responding to my calls and messages, the next day after we gave notice that we will be switching daycares. Our daughter misses her friends, but she seems to be much happier after we switched to a different daycare."

"The new Owner (of about a year) turned this into a “Christian” daycare without notifying parents and after saying she wasn’t going to change anything. An aggressive evangelist or just a bad business owner? I’m not sticking around to find out. Shame and misogyny appear to be common practice. My son was shamed for his toilet training behavior. If those views don’t bother you, know that it is not a preschool, regardless of their talk of curriculum. They watch iPad and just pass out endless worksheets."

"My son started daycare with Katelynn at 9 months until age 5 when he started Kindergarten. Immediately I felt so comfortable and secure knowing he was in the best hands while I was at work. Her and her staff have always been so kind, professional and genuinely love and care for all the children in the center. I was always so impressed with the focus they put on activities, reading and educating the kids that made him incredibly prepared to start school last fall. He developed great relationships with the children and staff, they will always feel like family."

"As a former employee of Sprouting Up Kids I can wholeheartedly say this is an amazing childcare center. The owners and management go above and beyond in making sure all their children’s needs are met and the teachers who are watching over the children are held to high standards. Finding good management to work under can be difficult and often make jobs hard but the time I spent working for them was wonderful. I wish I could take them with at every job I’ll ever have. I would recommend this daycare to anyone looking for great care for their young children."

"When I went back to work in 2016, I was very stressed about finding the right care for my son. When I found Sprouting Up Kids, I knew this would be the perfect fit for our family. They have made my son feel comfortable and the transition was very easy. My son has attended now for almost 2 years. I don't even consider them a daycare anymore but an extended family. They have been such a blessing. My son loves his teachers. They diligently work with him on colors, numbers and ABCs. They have even gone above and beyond with helping him potty train. Thank you Terri, Lisa, Kateylnn, Megan and all the wonderful ladies who make Sprouting Up Kids an amazing place!!"
