  • A Christian based school with amazing teachers and staff! My daughter attended until she went to kindergarten, and they gave her a great start.

  • The staff is so amazing. Both of my children attended there and they were well cared for and teach Christian values.

  • First I want to confess that this daycare has been a blessing to me and my family. I have been nothing but treated with respect from day one and my grandbaby came there shy and now he has developed and grown so much . When we walk in we are both welcomed and I especially love how the young men address my young king with respect and assertiveness! I love this place it’s more than a daycare it’s a place that I consider a second family . We are welcoming a new baby in May and I trust that the newborn will be safety cared for. I am truky grateful for mini melodies as there are other daycares in the area but this is where I believe God has places me and mine !!

  • I love love love Mini Melodies and I appreciate all of the encouragement and support the staff gives my little one everyday. They have become family and an important aspect in my daughter’s life. Since being at Mini Melodies my child has flourished academically as well as socially. She has learned more about God than I have ever embraced with her and I appreciate them for that. I love seeing the FB postings that share what the kids are doing. You can really tell that the staff enjoy teaching and guiding their little ones. I definitely recommend 10/10 if you want a warm, embracing, loving and supportive environment for your little ones!

  • I am incredibly happy with the care my granddaughters receives at Minnie Melodies. The staff are genuinely loving and attentive, providing a safe, nurturing and welcoming environment where my little ones has thrived. I especially appreciate the thoughtful curriculum that encourages learning through play, and the detailed daily updates I receive which keep me connected throughout the day. When the oldest grandmother took her entrance exam for first grade, the school that she is not attending was so surprised that she exceeded the educational expectations for age. This is attributed to the exceptional teachers and curriculum at Minnie Melodies. I highly recommend this facility to any family looking for exceptional learning and childcare.".

  • Visited this facility yesterday with my 10 month old daughter to see if it was a fit for her first day care. And it was not, the owner was very unprofessional and her staff was unwelcoming. The door was open which was the first red flag as safety for children should be number one priority and no one should just be able to enter a day care without being let in and confirmed their identity. The teachers were ALL on their phones and barely said hello to my daughter and I. The owner didn’t even ask my daughters name but stated she was “BIG” with a nasty attitude and I quote “she kinda big ain’t she.. big for 10 months” . Why would I send my daughter somewhere where you don’t even know or care to know her name but you’re judging her appearance? The place was so dark and depressing and the kids did not appear to be doing anything constructive . When asked the baby to teacher ratio the owner or the teachers could not give an accurate answer which was another turn off. 0/10 recommend this place and as a first time mom we deserve to know our child will be somewhere safe, will be welcomed and treated fairly, and around teachers that actually want to be there !
