KinderCare Learning Companies reviews

Management disconnected, the company is cheap! Worked there over 5 years and never received a raise. Most employees were cheated out of benefits in the length of time I was employed there. My child also got severely I'll with RSV because management did not uphold sick child policies and did not listen to teachers explaining even the most obvious of problems. People with literally zero experience and can come in on a higher pay scale and very easily utilize the system to be promoted lightning quick around long time employees with a great deal more ability and valuable input, but perhaps less college credit hours.

hmmm, well, cut labor..cut labor..cut labor.. to the point where I felt like I was being asked to sacrifice the quality of care. Center directors are pushed beyond limits. They are given tons of expectations but are not given the proper training and/or coaching. My DL was very good at telling me what I was doing wrong...I wished I had more follow up, more coaching. I was in my last center for 6 months and she did not step in my building ONCE. We were encouraged to sugar up our parents and teachers for engagement surveys instead of just taking the TRUE METRICS. I had to walk away from a job I loved because we were pressured to have ideal numbers that KCE no longer cared about the WHY. We need to have a consistently engaged center...not just good numbers because I fed them Olive Garden or dangled a gift card in front of them. Our kids need to have quality education, not just when RVPs, Jamie Thrush, Elanna, Wei-Lee, or Tom are coming into town. We need NAEYC abiding centers at all times, not just when re- accreditation is coming up. I just felt there was a lot of SHOW, not true to the cause. It broke my heart. Absolutely broke my heart. I believe they are reaping the "benefits" of that now. My old district has had a TON of CD turn over in just the last 7 months.
