Downtown Portland KinderCare

We’ve been so happy with our experience at KinderCare. I was nervous to start daycare, but the team quickly felt like family. Our son’s primary infant teacher is amazing — he absolutely adores her, and it’s clear how much she cares. The center director is fantastic, and the whole staff is warm, welcoming, and trustworthy. It’s been a wonderful addition to our “village”, and we feel incredibly lucky to be part of this community!

We’ve been apart of the downtown KinderCare community for over 4 years. Our 1st child was in the infant room 4 years ago and now our 2nd child is attending. The teachers show so much love for our kids. Our second didn’t take to the bottle to well at first and the teachers were patient, gracious, and kind about it. As a parent, I felt reassured that my youngest was being well taken care of. Can’t recommend this daycare enough!

Updating my review in May 2025. It’s been over a year since my last review and the new center director, Christina has been more than excellent, accommodating and diplomatic. A real example of what center directors should aspire to be. Same for our kids’ teachers. We are overall happy with our experience here and sad to be leaving. Original review from Nov 2023: We were really excited that we enrolled our two kids here. Unfortunately my toddler has been hit twice within the past 6 weeks at this center. This time around, his nose was hit hard that it bled.

The staff, teachers, and support staff at downtown KinderCare have been amazing to work with. They have been great to our child who is always smiling when he sees his teachers and friends, and to us as well whenever we've had questions or need something.

Kindercare has been such a blessing for my daughter, and I get such peace of mind knowing they she's spending her days there, that she's happy and cared for, that she's learning, and that she's safe. The staff is amazing, I get updates all day about her activities, and I get to see the difference at home from what their program offers. We are so grateful to have them in our lives.
