Hope Street Friends/KinderCare is an absolute gem. My kid has been in the infant room for several months since post-COVID reopening, and we have had nothing short of a perfect experience.Because we started daycare just as pandemic was waning, we ended up trying two different daycares before settling on Hope Street Friends/Kindercare. I felt that my kid was cared for and safe at all of them, but there are some very clear advantages to Hope Street Friends/Kindercare:- Their management is fantastic. They use an app for all communication, so theres never any doubt about what my kid ate or did---and I dont have to remember to take a photo of a day-sheet before leaving.- I get regular, adorable photos.- Pickup and dropoff is incredibly efficient. Parking is easy. And I am never stuck waiting for my kid, even if I get there at peak times. (At previous daycares I sometimes waited up to 30 minutes---which was grating, when I was busy.)- The hours (7am-7pm) are priceless for working parents. Having to get a kid before a 5pm or 6pm closing time is often very inconvenient on a busy day---and forces you to commute when traffic is at its worst.- Finally, the teachers come across as experienced and loving. Theyve never seemed flustered; my kid is genuinely happy to see them. Its a great comfort to know hes having the time of his life while Im in my office.All in all: Its an A+ experience. I am very glad we landed there.

Remarkable center with lovely teachers. My women love attending and have heard a lot in their own time. I could not be happier with our experience.

My children have been enrolled for the past 5 years, since each of them were 5 months old. HSF is fantastic. The kids have thrived in a caring and challenging environment. We shopped around when our kids were entering preschool, and we found that the preschool program at HSF was equal to or stronger than the preschools that are frequently mentioned as the best in the city. Our son has now graduated to Kindergarten and was more than prepared. If anything, he was ready for first grade already!

Amazing center with wonderful teachers. My girls love attending and have learned so much in their time there. Couldnt be happier with our experience.

A wonderful place to work and send your child to learn.
