  • Colorful nice setting, attentive teachers and providers, an understanding compassionate director 🤔 what more can you ask for ?? Filed trips, healthy meals, and designated age approximate play areas of course they have it 👌🏾 motherly love shown when your unavailable so you don’t have to worry is more than enough to help make your mind up 😉

  • I’m what they like to call a helicopter, mom. I have a 3 year old daughter who has been attending Kids Of Hope since she was 6 months. I absolutely love this daycare. I was very skeptical about putting my daughter in this daycare because of the past experiences I’ve had with other daycare’s. Now I wouldn’t want her to attend anywhere else besides there. And she has been to three other daycare’s before going to Kids of Hope. As parents we can only hope that we can find a loving ,compassionate , trustworthy and safe environment for our children when they are not with use . I say look no further. I don’t worry about my daughter when she’s in the care of Kids of hope. Not only is the owner great the staff is just as caring and loving. They are fed healthy meals , they go on field trips, their minds are fed with age appropriate curriculum, and communication is great. I really appreciate how she runs her childcare program . Highly recommended.

  • Wow. Where do I start. My two boys attended kids of hope for 2yrs and my biggest regret was having to pull them out. This daycare has been NOTHING but kind and loving to me and my boys. Ms. Hope is one of the sweetest women I've ever known. She goes above and beyond for the kids and she's always been a listening ear during me hard times, she's also very considerate and will do just about anything to accommodate everyone. I appreciate every single one of you ladies that work here. You guys do an amazing job and I wish you ladies nothing but peace and happiness. -Love Josiah, Cameron and Nesha.❤️ BIG HUGS P.S. Ms. Mia is amazing also. 😀

  • I just love the staff and the owner Ms. Hope. Since I’ve lost my fiancé in April her and her staff have become my second family! Ms. Hope has been there for me every step of the way during this difficult time! I greatly appreciate her! My twins have been at this daycare since they were just a few months old they are almost 2 now and they love it! My daughter who is now 5 also attended this daycare as an infant. Even now she asks to go back there!! The location is convenient, the owner is responsible, and reasonable and her and her staff really loves the kiddos. I also love that her staff are a group of aged women! That’s a major plus for me! I don’t like kids working with kids. All of my children that attended kids of hope are spoil! lol it’s like they’re at home and I love that!! I’ve been a loyal client since 2018!! Thanks Kids of Hope I love y’all!! ❤️
