Forest Crossing KinderCare

“ I have three children at Forest Crossing Kindercare. They have been here since they were each eight weeks old. From the very beginning, the staff at Kindercare made me feel comfortable leaving my little ones in their care at such a young age. You can truly see how affectionate and caring the teachers are with their students. There is no better proof than seeing your child running into school or not wanting to leave. My children are now six years old, four years old, and six months old, and they still love it. Ms. Jen and her staff have done a fantastic job of preparing them for kindergarten. The staff here go above and beyond to make you feel like you are part of their family. Thank you, ladies!  

“ We entrusted the care of our three-month-old daughter to Forest Crossing KinderCare in January 2009. Our jobs required us to find an acceptable facility that opened early and stayed open late. We discovered KinderCare met all these qualifications and was convenient to our home. The staff gave our daughter attention and care as if she was their own. My daughter always was happy to get to daycare, and some days did not want to leave. The curriculum adopted by KinderCare encourages children to explore and learn while having a good time. The staff members are well-qualified and have positive attitudes, and even encourage the students and parents to join in activities similar to ones they will be doing when they go to public school (for example, wear your favorite college shirt, wear your pajamas, and dress up for Go Texan Day in your western wear, to mention a few). KinderCare offers extracurricular activities that children with working parents may not have the opportunity to participate in otherwise (i.e., dance, phonics, cooking, etc.). The fees were affordable and classes optional. My child was taught by a certified teacher for two years while in the prekindergarten program! Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc. were always encouraged to visit and were welcomed. KinderCare provided opportunities during the school year for parents and extended family to come into the facility for programs, parties, and for observations. The summer program is filled with fun activities and play. My daughter is now in kindergarten and the transition went smoothly. She is doing well and received the tools she needed for this next step in her education. She participates in the KinderCare before and after school program this year.We and her extended family could not be more pleased and thankful for the wonderful caring people here who have taken such good care of our daughter.    

“ My six-month-old attends the Forest Crossing KinderCare, and I am so lucky to have stumbled upon them! As a teacher and mother of two, I cannot stress enough how imperative it is to not have to worry about your children when you are at work. Every single morning when we walk in, we are immediately greeted warmly not only by his teachers, but by the entire staff. You can obviously tell that KinderCare is a great place to work because the teachers are always in good moods, no matter what time of day. They are all so energetic and positive. I also cannot believe how much they know about my child and his classmates. They tell you so much about my child's day that I feel as if I was right there with him! As a teacher, I rarely get a moment to myself throughout the day and my husband is only home on the weekends, which means we rely so much on my son's teachers. For my husband, knowing how wonderfully they take care of our child and seeing all the pictures of him that they give us truly puts him at ease when he's away. Also, the facility is extremely clean, bright, and filled with decorations from student photos. In my son's classroom, they even have pictures of the kids on rings that are "chew-proof" for them to explore. Again, just another example of how this school is student- and family-centered. I want to specifically express our family's gratitude towards Ms. Shawnee, Ms. Alyssa, Ms. Paige, Ms. Stephanie, and the Directors. These ladies are helping my family and I raise our baby boy, and this means the world to us. Yes, the building is beautiful, but these teachers are what makes KinderCare truly a thriving, loving atmosphere for children.

“ There are not enough words in the world to describe how wonderful Ms. Jennifer and the staff at Forest Crossing KinderCare are! My son is highly allergic to peanuts and eggs, and so they double check all packages before giving my son any food. Ms. Jennifer and the staff have made me feel so comfortable about leaving my son in their care. I have nothing but positive things to say about the staff at KinderCare at Forest Crossing!

“ The faculty and staff at Forest Crossing KinderCare are invested in the children under their supervision. My daughter feels like an essential part of the whole and is always treated with dignity and respect. We enjoy a wonderful relationship with the staff and teachers, and are looking forward to more great things to come.  

“ We have been using the services at Kindercare Forest Crossing Center for seven years and it has been a wonderful experience. My child has been through great times and the staff has always been willing to work with me. His teachers always bring his accomplishments and triumphs to my attention. I have used them for full-time daycare services, summers, and before and after school. My child has fun, learns a lot, and engages his imagination on a daily basis. The school's extra classes add more to our experience. He comes home from cooking class ready to cook dinner for the family, and from Spanish class ready to speak to me in Spanish as much as he can. KinderCare has been our partner and makes sure that my child knows he is very special.   

“ What an amazing atmosphere for children! Ms. Jen and Ms. Winna are incredible and provide a safe, fun environment for all of the children where learning happens every day! Our daughter loved the Infant Classroom and gets incredibly excited to visit the Toddler Classroom! The entire team of teachers is passionate about what they do.

“ My children have been part of the KinderCare family for more than 10 years. My daughter was in Phonics with Ms. LuLu when she was four years old, and she was reading before she even started kindergarten. My son is now in prekindergarten with Ms. Donita – he loves it! His favorite thing he has learned is counting by fives! He is more than ready to start kindergarten!       

“ Forest Crossing KinderCare is a home away from home for my two daughters. The entire staff is friendly, welcoming, and truly care about the well-being of not only my children, but all the children they care for. The center's summer program offers fun on-site and off-site field trips that my daughters enjoy. They are always excited to go to KinderCare and see their friends and teachers.

“ Forest Crossing KinderCare has been like family since our daughter started attending in 2013. We relocated to Texas due to a job opportunity. Up until that point, our daughter was being cared for by our grandmother; so this was an extremely huge adjustment for her. Our daughter moved with us away from our entire family and everything she knew. The staff at KinderCare showed our family such care and concern, and helped make this adjustment possible. They took our daughter in and treated her as if she was one of their own children. Our daughter was so shy when she first started going, but now you can't get her to leave for the day. She loves it there and we know this is because of how well they treat her and the rest of the children. We love the staff at Kindercare; without them, we would not have made this adjustment. We can't thank them enough for their love and support.        

“ My girls (ages three and five) love Forest Crossing KinderCare! They look forward to going to school and are always happy when I pick them up at the end of the day. The staff is warm and caring. We appreciate how flexible they are with our unpredictable schedule.     

“ We made a big move to a new home, new town, and new state, and wanted to be sure that our children had a safe, loving, and enriching place to call their new school. We found that place when we came to Forest Crossing KinderCare. After visiting a couple of other schools in the area, we felt like the schools were all fairly similar and offered their own perks and benefits, but we left each one feeling like something was missing. When we visited KinderCare, we felt an overwhelming sense of welcome and immediately noticed the attention and focus that the teachers and staff gave the children. We knew that this would be our boys’ new school. With Forest Crossing KinderCare, we know that the boys are getting the love and attention that they need to feel secure while they learn, play, and grow, and that means the world to our family.  

“ The staff at Forest Crossing KinderCare love my kids as if they were their own.

“ The teachers genuinely love the children. They individualize their approach when teaching because they know not all kids learn at the same pace or in the same way. 

“ My children have been attending KinderCare Forest Crossing for over three years. We love all of our teachers! My daughter is in first grade and constantly surprises her teachers at how well she does in school. My son is three and was recently able to pass a kindergarten entrance test! I attribute my children's success to Forest Crossing KinderCare--the staff here are so great with their students and teach them in a loving environment. Ms. Jenn and Ms. Winna are wonderful at what they do. I highly recommend KinderCare to anyone looking for a home away from home for their children!
