  • I would not recommend KinderCare Bailey Cove to any parent. My experience was incredibly disappointing, and I ultimately made the decision to pull my child from this center. The overall environment felt very unprofessional. Staff members were often rude, and communication with families was inconsistent. It was difficult to get clear answers about what was happening day to day, and concerns did not seem to be taken seriously. The Center Director, Alexis Allen, was especially discouraging to deal with. I found her approach to be dismissive and unnecessarily rude, which made it uncomfortable to bring up concerns or ask questions. Leadership sets the tone for a childcare center, and unfortunately that tone seemed to contribute to the issues throughout the facility. One of my biggest concerns was the apparent lack of supervision at times. As a parent, I expect my child to be in a safe, attentive environment, and I did not feel confident that standard was consistently being met. Another major red flag was the constant turnover of teachers. It seemed like there was a new teacher every other week. From conversations and observations, it appeared that many staff members left because they lacked support and were treated with disrespect. High turnover creates instability for children, and that’s exactly what I witnessed. Because of these ongoing issues, I made the decision to remove my child from the center. I also plan to reach out to DHR so that my concerns regarding the environment, supervision, and overall professionalism can be reviewed. Parents deserve transparency and peace of mind when leaving their children in someone else’s care, and unfortunately, that was not my experience here.

  • Been using them for over 2 years for our now 4-yr-old and just entered our 1.5-yr-old. Have been very pleased throughout with the staff and level of care across the board. Was a substantial improvement in terms of meal accomodations and schedule flexibility over our previous daycare at a significantly better price point. Highly recommend under the current staff/management.

  • Bailey Cover KinderCare is a great facility. My child has been attending this center for 9 months, and her progress is amazing! The staff really cares about our children, and you can feel the passion and love they have for caring for our children and their development. My daughter speaks highly of her class, teacher and director.

  • I moved to Huntsville, AL for a job offer a little over a year ago. Moving to Huntsville, I left every single person I love. So, it was very important to me to find a daycare for my newborn that would love her & treat her like their own. Since, my family would be 5 hours away. It was truly a blessing to find Bailey Cove!!! They have been tremendous & loving!! They keep me updated on her feedings, if she’s pulling her ears, her poop, if they feel she’s ready to move to the next feeding stage. It’s awesome to see an organization that has employees that cares and love their job. To trust someone to provide daily care for your child is tough & Grace started daycare at only seven weeks old. It was one of the hardest decisions I ever had to make but God truly blessed me with a daycare that has patience, understanding & sympathetic. Eventually I’ll return back to Mobile and it’ll be difficult to find a new daycare that loves my baby like you guys do!!!!! #director lex & infant 1& 2

  • Our child attended this center for the past 5 years. Through the years, he has been under 6 directors and 4 assistant directors. There was frequent staff turnover before which was a little bit concerning but current staff has been there for awhile now. My child was lucky to have caring teachers, and has learned so much. Current staff are awesome under the helm of Ms. Lex, the assistant director, who is probably the best so far. We loved Ms. Mya and Ms. Love for being great teachers. Don't let the bad reviews from the previous years/months deter you from enrolling your child. We observed that the administration handles the issues right away with the parties involved. So give this center a chance.

  • We've been at this location for over a year now and couldn't be happier. There was some high turnover rates a while ago when daycares all across the country were struggling to find staff, but everyone was transparent about the situation the whole time. My child's current teacher is fantastic, the new director is very professional and caring, the program coordinator fills in rolls whenever/wherever she is needed, and the assistant director really stepped up when needed and is always a friendly, smiling face at drop off and pick up. Each teacher I've interacted with treats my kid like family, whether they work with them on a frequent basis or not. I get calls whenever anything goes amiss (like symptoms that a cold is coming on) and frequent check-ins, pictures through the day, and a little recap when I pick up. I'm glad to know that my child is in a place that treats them with love and attention.
