I am so thankful for this opportunity that Kristy has gave me! She has done nothing but go above and beyond to meet her staff requirements! She is loving caring and most importantly treats us like humans! This is the first center I can say I am truly happy at. My son goes here as well and his teacher Anari is the best I have seen so much improvement on his academic skills and social skills. The staff is very caring and loving and makes me feel as I have a second home when I leave mine in the morning! Thank you for being there for me and creating a safe space for children and teachers!!
DestinyMay 7, 2026New child care filled with vibrant fun loving staff. Your children will be safe, have fun and learn throughout the day. Kristy runs this place with love and care. Her educational background and years of experience is a blessing to be shared.
Tonya AlthausMay 7, 2026If I could give this place a million stars I would my children go here and they love it there staff is the best staff out there they work very hard. They always go above and beyond for the children and the parents. They always keep the parents informed about what’s going on not only with a child but the business it’s self. I would like to personally thank the owner and owners family for making this Daycare a safe and enjoyable experience for they children that are enrolled there
Tyler BandyMay 7, 2026Kristy and her Staff are all truly remarkable human beings ❤️ Since Kristy took ownership there’s been too many improvements to count - inside and out! Love the center for our little town 🫶
Michelle CrozierMay 7, 2026I’ve known Kristy literally my whole life. She is the greatest person. This is her 2nd daycare as she went to school and got her degree and was a teacher with DMPS for many years. Kindergarten. Now she has opened the Nest and has all these wonderful people who work for her. She loves her teachers and the kiddos. She has raised a phenomenal family. She and Steve love the community’s that they have business and live in. That family would quite literally give the shirt off their back if you needed. The fact that there are some bad eggs out there is a hard truth. It’s just too bad that this wonderful family has had to endure what they have. Don’t let a few bad eggs influence you in any way. This girl is the real thing. She should be the teacher of the decade.
Jeremiah MinshallMay 6, 2026This is a great establishment! The teachers care so much about your children. Not only do your children receive practical education but also creative outlets. The owner Kristy is the absolute best! She has a background in early childhood education and it shows! I would 100% recommend!
