Don't send your child there if they have food allergies. My kid was always sick there and they always sent him home but wanted my child care.
Latoya McKinnonOct 6, 2025I have never been so disappointed and disgusted at a daycare and the owner ever. It went from I'll help u to u have to pay my director how makes $25hr double because my other provider was always later. She always has something smart to say and the Director of the facility is not so good with the kids. You have to really want to help people and not use the kids cause u say u want to help. 8 would never tell anyone to come to this place it's just for show. She kicked my son out and then became a stalker. I wish the children her the best of luck and the parents to keep checking on your child my son was always sick and they always sent him home. He was never sick at home. My son had food allergies and they are not set up for that. They don't pay attention to your children they just act like they care. Good luck on your future endeavors. He now attends School for free at a local public early learning center where they have real nurses and a real professional staff. He love Mrs Bebe and so do I.
Latoya MckinnonSep 7, 2025Very Clean, Staff is nice and friendly. My niece attends this daycare and we feel so comfortable leaving her while we’re working. I highly recommend, the meals are healthy and there’s lots of activities for the children.
Neka LongFeb 10, 2025The owner ms.Robinson is beyond disrespectful and unprofessional. Don't send your kids here!
lana jayMar 18, 2024This place is SO unprofessional
