Hello from the staff at Walnut Bend KinderCare! Reading about a center on a web page is o.k., but walking into a family atmosphere where staff and children are happy and engaged is a totally different world.
The love we give and receive is motivating us to do better every day.
Training from Knowledge Universe for the staff is an ongoing process.
New technology and education are introduced and shared constantly. What more could a person ask for?.
