Recent parent reviews

  • My daughters have gone here since they were 4 months and 2. They are now 3 and 5. This has become their home away from home. The staff is very accommodating to any parental requests I’ve had (exclusive breastmilk, support potty training, communicating with me on any behavior concerns I’ve had). We will stick with this daycare until we no longer need daycare services.

  • My 2 sons are autistic and love it and my daughter goes there as well and loves it. My youngest who's non verbal has learned to talk and has learned routine due to this facility. He's become more social and has learned to use sign language more often My daughter loves mikka and my son loves lacy so much. Murry watches over my eldest and my son always comes home cheerful.

  • My grandson gets to go here. Now he's in the 2s class. There are so many activities for him! They have a gym indoors. Also a big fenced playground in the back with tons of toys! They even have 2 ponies. His teachers have gotten to know him and can anticipate his needs. Janine knows and cares about every child. The facility is clean. I'm so happy that he gets to go there.

  • Both of my kids go here and I love it. We haven't had any issues and the teachers and director are always so nice and caring. One of my children has epilepsy and they are great with her. When anything happens, they call me right away and they do exactly what is needed for her. They do so many fun and educational activities with the kids everyday. I definitely recommend them!

  • I played nice until I knew I was moving. I’ve been waiting to write this review for after my move so she wouldn’t kick us out!😂 I would not recommend this daycare to anyone at all. She should be shut down if I am being honest. She advertises that she has night care but closes at 6 if not 5:30. Lets be serious night care was the only reason I wanted my daughter to go here. It’s hard as a single mother trying to find someone all the time so night care would have helped a lot. So her closing early my pickup list was very long and she complained about certain people picking up my child. One being Jerrica which is one of the best employees she has ever had and lost her because of her lack of respect for her employees. Not to mention the reports that have been piling in are absolutely disgusting. For instance my mother just received a 2022 bill for my nephew who hasn’t been there since 2021. Over $2,500. She doesn’t care about your children, all she cares about is your money. DO NOT let your kids go here unless you absolutely have too. Now last but not least the employees aren’t very extravagant either there is a select few I absolutely adore and would never speak bad on. But again I said select few and they know who they are! 🤍 Have a blessed Day!

  • This place doesn't doesn't know how to care for kids nor do they know how to pay there employees on time. Janeane writes payroll checks and her checks bounce because, she doesn't have enough money to pay her staff. 🙄 Kids get sent there sick and she keeps them there when they need to be sent home also, head lice goes around and the kids get to stay there?? Great job.... not...
