I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Kingdom Kare is the definition of "you get what you pay for." After COVID hit, our daycare center raised rates, and reduced hours. Kingdom Kare has great hours, and was able to get our children in. Unfortunately, that is where the good stops. We have a child who has been evaluated for ADHD. The staff at Kingdom Kare did not have the tools or skill necessary to facilitate the child's care. The owner claims to have certificates and degrees, but for some reason, she could not handle a child with underlying issues. We were called multiple times to pick the child up, despite there being no danger to person or property. The owner refused admission on multiple days because the child was crying upon arriving at the center. Additionally, the center did not feed our infant child the food we sent, and the child was irritable upon pickup, almost begging for food. Another child of ours complained about her food being stolen by other kids, and even though we brought it up with the staff, they did not resolve the issue. This place is good place if you are on a budget, and you expect the bare minimum from a childcare center. Other than that, I would not recommend Kingdom Kare.
