Came for evaluation with my 2 boys. In person evaluation took like 3 hours. The day care has a huge steel door and a gate, akin to high security prison, which is very sad. These people do seem like the best day care in town. I've been around and this day care is top, although like an elite school, hard to get into. If you Google day care hours per day vs. IQ, data has a negative correlation. Best of all is no day care in my scientific opinion.
dot dotNov 28, 2025We are truly saddened to have left the Rural CAP CDC. Our daughter spent four wonderful months there, marking her first experience in a daycare setting. She was 2 when she started and in a mixed age class. The teachers, the support staff, was incredibly kind, and the supervisor Daniella was always hands-on. They are responsive to our questions and concerns. It was heartwarming to see our daughter excited each day, eager to play with her friends. However, as we noticed familiar faces among the staff starting to leave, I began to feel anxious and disheartened. In the short time we were there, I became aware that seven staff members had departed. This transition raised concerns for us, as it made me question the stability of the care provided. While pulling my toddler out was a tough decision, the changing staff situation contributed significantly to our concerns. I believe that if compensation issues are a factor in these departures, it is essential for the administration to address it and advocate for better wages. Childcare work is incredibly challenging and should be properly valued. It requires not just skill, but genuine passion and dedication. It's a calling. I hope the administration takes proactive steps to ensure that the dedicated staff members are adequately compensated for their hard work. Our experience was largely positive, but we firmly believe that investing in the staff's wellbeing is crucial for maintaining a nurturing environment for the children.
Zhenaruth MacCarthyJul 1, 2025My daughter has attended this school since she had just turned 2 years old. As a parent , you are concerned with the child care that will be provided to your little one . The staff at Rural Cap eased my worries completely of that . We have had nothing but positive experiences since day 1. The teachers are wonderful and build memorable bonds with your child that they will remember forever. Not only did my daughter gain a very close relationship with her teachers & ALL staff , but so did I. I would highly recommend Rural Cap to any parent looking for quality child care with lack of worries . I saw nothing but improvements since enrolling her in the rural cap family ! 15/10 highly recommend .
Heather CovingtonJul 26, 2024Love their staff. But I wish they didn't close so often. It's so inconvenient
