  • Did a tour here for our child and do not reccomend. Trying to communicate with anyone to get a visit should have been my first red flag. I called everyday for a week and was always transferred to the gals voicemail. Left a message on work and cell multiple times as well as emailed. Over a week before I finally got a response. Based of great reviews and online it looked like a great place - but photos can absolutely be manipulated. The entire center felt cluttered and dingy. When doing a tour we went into the infant room & a member of staff was kicked back playing on her cellphone and couldn't be bothered to even look up at us while we were being shown about. Doesn't exactly project well on prospective parents for your center.

  • This has been a great day care that has a good educational program. One of the few daycares that has 5 star rating.

  • The staff here is a 10, they are amazing. While they have a security staff upstairs the one thing that has always bothered me is that to get in the backdoor you need a key fob for pre K access. Yet on the side of the building there is an unlocked door which you can get to 1 through 6th grade kids, yet you also can just walk around to the pre K kids rooms. So if security is important why not key fobs on both outer door access?
