We are so happy and beyond lucky to have KinderCare in our lives! Stacey, Steph, and the entire KinderCare team are an absolute delight and I couldn’t imagine a better place for our son. We joined as an infant family, and are thrilled with the level of attention, guidance, and pure joy the teachers have for our son. We’ve witnessed incredible growth and development in our boy in just a year, and we are so grateful for the dedication and commitment all his teachers have for him. We just love it here and highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, educational, loving, and fun environment!

We absolutely love this daycare and couldn’t be happier with the care our daughter receives. The staff are incredible—they genuinely know her, care about her, and make her feel so special every day. It gives us such peace of mind knowing she is happy, loved, and well cared for when she’s there.
We also really appreciate how open and transparent the teachers are and how consistently they communicate with us about anything that comes up. We feel like true partners in our daughter’s care. We’re so grateful and highly recommend this daycare!

My daughter has been at KinderCare for alittle over a year and it feels like family! KinderCare Paramus specifically has a staff that is kind, extremely communicative, beyond patient with the children (and us parents lol), and full of love. Ms Stacey and Ms Steph run a very organized ship no clue how they get it all done. I have to give a special shout out to Ms Adriana, Ms Nicole, and Ms Tulip!
If you choose KinderCare Paramus I think you will be very pleased with your child’s development as well as everyone always compliments my daughter on how well she speaks and how much she had learned in a year!
I recommend KinderCare Paramus to anyone that asks❤️

Having my child here for the last 4-5 years have been wonderful and the family bond that was created is something we will cherish deeply. The staff keeps a safe, clean environment in all the classrooms and give healthy conscious food for all the little ones that leave them full and happy, keeping in mind all allergies some may have. My child came home smiling even during the roughest days and always talked about their day full of exciting stories and games or crafts the teachers provided. We already miss this special place so much and are forever grateful for the memories! Thank you!

My son joined Kindercare Paramus at 2 1/2 years old and just graduated. He started as a very shy little guy and emerged a much more confident boy who genuinely grew to love "going to school." He developed so many special friendships during his time here and learned a great deal.
The whole team at KC Paramus is very welcoming and kind. They greet you with a smile every time you enter the building/classroom and, impressively, all of the teachers know ALL of the kids' names, not just the kids in their own classrooms. This created such a welcoming atmosphere for us. We felt like we belonged to a big family.
Whenever something came up that needed attention, Stacey (Director) jumped right in and made sure swift resolution was reached. As a 1st time Mama, this was a huge plus for me - she never made me feel like a bother.
Thanks to KC Paramus, we are off to a great start in Kindergarten. I will always be grateful for our time here, and I know my son will remember his time here very fondly. Having just driven by KC Paramus yesterday, he said: "Oh, Mama, look! It's my first school!! It's really good to see it again." His last day was just last week. :) We are going to miss everyone!

My daughter transferred from KinderCare at Wayne to this location and it was the best decision we’ve made! The staff are attentive, caring and very communicative. The center is very clean, organized and should you ever have any concerns they address it immediately. My daughter always had nice things to say once she was picked up and she is very sad to be leaving as she is now going to kindergarten. I just enrolled my 1 year old and I am at ease knowing she is in good hands. Thanks to the amazing staff. Special shout out to Ms. Stacy, Ms. Steph, Ms. Alicia and Ms. Adrianna. I know EVERYONE is amazing here!♥️♥️

Parents should think carefully before paying the premium tuition this daycare charges, especially if your child needs any additional support.
Our experience was that the center was unwilling or unable to support a preschooler who required basic redirection, language support, and assistance with potty training. After one challenging day, I was told my child could only remain enrolled if I provided and paid for a one-on-one therapist for every hour he attended. This was on a Monday and I was charged for the entire week. A refund was refused. In other words, I was expected to pay full tuition while also paying for the staffing the daycare said was necessary for my child to participate.
Rather than teaching classroom expectations through consistent guidance and redirection, many age-appropriate behaviors were treated as reasons my child could not remain enrolled. Potty training support was minimal, despite my child making steady progress with a consistent routine.
The center also cited elopement as the reason it could no longer safely accommodate my child. Yet during multiple drop-offs and pick-ups, I personally observed the classroom door open, which left me questioning whether all reasonable environmental safety measures were being consistently used.
For the price this daycare charges, I expected a program that teaches, redirects, and supports young children as they learn—not one that expects families to privately fund additional staffing for their child to attend.
If your child is typically developing and requires little to no additional support, your experience may be different. However, if your child has a language delay, is potty training, or needs extra guidance, I strongly encourage you to ask detailed questions about what support the center is actually willing and able to provide before enrolling.
