Kinder Kastle - Rt. 27 North Brunswick area (daycare, centers)

[ic18]

Good morning! Does anyone have any info on this new daycare that opened up on Rt. 27. My little one is currently at Rainbow Academy - literally down the street from this bldg and so I checked it out. Its cheaper, BRAND NEW Building (very nice), AND it includes hot lunch and 2 snacks dauly (which my current location does NOT include). Does anyone know anything about the caregivers, owners, etc.

Basically looking for personal experiences there - if there are any.

THANKS!!

I don't know anyone or anything about Kinder Kastle BUT I did work in one of the Rainbow Academy centers and and know the owners and assistant director of North Brunswick very well.

The co-owner/director was a daycare parent so as a parent she knows what you are looking for in loving and well trained staff because that's what she expected and received for her child. She and her assistant director are very warm and motivated ladies with high standards.

I would definitely do the math again and compare what you are getting. MOST IMPORTANTLY, your child is happy at Rainbow Academy and so are you. You know your child is getting great services and is most likely very attached and comfortable in his environment and with his friends and caregivers.

Why or how easily would your child adjust to a new center, especially when they are happy already? If you have questions about the value or services you may want to talk to the director so you know about all the programs that are included. I understand they just added a sprinkler and enhanced their playground which will only add to the summer fun.

I think the lunch program is very convenient for busy parents. Sometimes fussier children are happier with ii because their friends are eating exactly the same thing. You should always check the menu though. If you know there is something your child doesn't like, you can send in leftovers and they will refrigerate and or warm it up.

Good luck-

I am happy with the quality of food and especially with the alternatives that you can choose. My daughter eats better when she is eating the same food as her friends! So much for Mom's cooking!
