I was probably one of those reviews as my DD was there in the infant room in 2012-13. It was a terrible place then. I don't know about now. Have you taken a tour? When I did there was peeling paint and it generally looked upkempt. (Didn't want to put DD there but there was no other choice other than in-home daycare which I didn't want to do.) You might want to check the Virginia DSSS system to see about any recent violations. https://www.dss.virginia.gov/facility/search/cc.cgi

Online reviews of this KinderCare are not exactly encouraging. However, many of the negative reviews are from years ago, 2011-2013 and might not be relevant today. The location for this daycare would be perfect for us while we sit on a waitlist for Little Acorn Patch.

Does anyone have experience with Gum St KinderCare or if you have heard criticisms, what exactly where the complaints? 2 year olds group is of particular interest.
