How to Download All Your KinderCare Photos & Videos

Save every photo and video from KinderCare in one click, at full quality, before your account is downgraded when your child leaves.

By Simon, creator of Daycare Photo Downloader Updated 2 min read

To download all your KinderCare photos and videos at once, install the free NurseryDownloader Chrome extension, sign in at classroom.kindercare.com in Chrome and click Download all photos & videos in the panel that appears. Every photo and video saves at full quality into dated folders, for every child on your account.

If your daycare uses KinderCare, it has quietly built up hundreds of photos and videos of your child. The catch: KinderCare only lets you save them one at a time, and once your child moves on, your account is downgraded and those photos get much harder to reach.

NurseryDownloader is a Chrome extension that saves them all, every photo and video, at full quality, in one click. Here's how.

Download every KinderCare photo in one click

Step 1: Install the extension

  1. Open Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge on a laptop or desktop (the extension doesn't run on phones or tablets).
  2. Add NurseryDownloader from the Chrome Web Store.
  3. Click Add to Chrome, then Add extension.

Step 2: Sign in to KinderCare

  1. Go to classroom.kindercare.com and sign in with your parent account.
  2. Open the page where your child's photos and videos appear.

Step 3: Click download

  1. The NurseryDownloader panel appears in the top-right of the page.
  2. Click Download all photos and videos. It covers every child on your account in one run.
  3. Everything saves at full quality, sorted into a folder for each child, then month-by-month sub-folders, with date-first filenames.

What you get

  • Photos and videos, saved at full quality, the original files, not lossy screenshots.
  • Organized by date, a folder for each child, then month-by-month sub-folders. Prefer one big folder? There's a toggle for that.
  • All your children, every child on the account saves into their own folder in a single run.
  • Your photos stay private: they go straight from the app to your computer, never through our servers, and it never asks for your password because it works in the browser where you're already signed in.

Your first 20 downloads are free, so you can check the quality before you buy a license.

Wondering what happens after your child leaves? Read does KinderCare delete your photos?

Questions parents ask

Does it download KinderCare videos too?

Yes, videos are saved alongside the photos, at full quality, filed under the date they were posted.

I have more than one child, do I do them separately?

No. It finds every child on your account and saves each into their own folder in one run.

Does it save the captions or notes?

It saves the photos and videos themselves, organized by date. It doesn't export the written captions or notes.

We're about to leave, will I lose the photos?

Once your child leaves, your account is usually downgraded and the photos get much harder to reach. The daycare isn't keeping a copy for you either, so save them all while you still have full access.

Is it safe?

Yes. Your photos go straight from KinderCare to your computer and never pass through our servers, so we never see them. And it never asks for your KinderCare password: it works in your own browser, where you're already signed in.
