The teachers here are awesome! I dont know why this daycare doesn’t have more reviews because honestly it’s a great place for the little kiddos. My two little boys go there and they have a great time there, a lot of fun things to do and the environment is overall clean. Very satisfied with everything. Thank you!

The best <3 Teachers are kind and love the kids. We receive art work almost daily, pictures and updates weekly, and it feels like extended family.

After being a single father for practically 3 years out of all the day cares I had my daughter in this is by far the best. And the kids love it too. I wish I would have known about this place sooner. But now we don't have to worry as much I know the kids are in a good place I can start getting my life back together now

We love Care-A-Lot! This was a wonderful place for our daughter's first school experience. Our daughter has learned so much. At 3, she can write her own name, recognizes almost all the letters in the alphabet, and understands basic addition & subtraction! She's made great friends and learned valuable social skills. We are forever grateful to Care-A-Lot!
