At KinderCare, you’ll find that employees are treated with transparency, dignity, and respect. Whether you’re caring for and educating the children we serve or supporting families from afar, you’ll have the tools and resources to make positive change within your community.
"I feel very fortunate to work for an organization that prioritizes diversity, equity, and inclusion. Over the last two years, in partnership with the Advisory Caucus and the Strategy Team, employees from within KinderCare shared their experiences and perspectives that helped shape the strategic priorities for our DEI journey. It’s a people-centric approach to a people-centered journey. As an Asian American who has immigrant parents, this work is completely personal. We all want to belong and feel valued, and that’s what KinderCare’s approach to DEI is all about.”
