Coaching With Love INC.

Honestly, finding a daycare in North Park that actually feels clean is a struggle, but Coaching With Love is solid. My girls have been there for a bit now and I'm really happy with how they keep the place up—it doesn't have that 'germ factory' vibe you get at other centers. The owner has a background in health and wellness coaching and you can really tell it's a priority for them. They're pretty strict about the sick-child policy, which can be a pain if you're rushing to work, but it keeps the seasonal bugs from wiping out the whole class. Communication is usually good, and I feel like they actually care about the kids' overall well-being, not just sticking them in front of a screen. It’s a clean, safe spot and that’s a huge relief for a busy parent.

To be honest, the health environment here is a bit of a letdown. It’s a small, street-level spot in North Park, and while the location is convenient, the cleanliness feels lacking. My little one seems to come home with a new bug every other week, and I’m just not seeing much communication on when things are being sanitized. It’s hard to get a straight answer on their sick-child policy too—I’ve seen kids dropped off with clear coughs and runny noses more times than I can count. For a place with 'Love' in the name, I wish they’d show a bit more care about keeping the space germ-free and actually enforcing health protocols so the same cold doesn't just circle the classroom forever. It’s definitely making me rethink our childcare situation.
