  • This daycare center is a great place for your child(ren) my son starting going there last year, his 1st time in daycare, the staff worked with him and told me to keep bring him. The staff are wondering people.

  • There are certain staff who take their job seriously and who truly loves the children. They are who make the learning center amazing! Mr Jay, Mrs Cathy, Mrs Kristen, Mrs Vedia just to name a few. There are more wonderful staff members. Unfortunately there are a few who make you not even want to bring your children here. Ms Tamika is one of those staff members. She sadly is one who cares for the children in the Pre K room 37. She yells at the children very loudly and obnoxious regularly. This morning she called herself arguing with me loudly in front of all the children because I did not like her treatment towards my special needs son. She very rudely told another staff member he needs to go to another class. Now, I get they’re full at times and some kids do have to go to another room. But it was the way she said it. Disgusting behavior. So I grabbed my son and told her I will take my son to the other class since she clearly did not want him in there. She comes charging out with a nasty attitude wanting to argue. She and a few others make you question bringing your kids here. I will be reporting her to a few different places. If her negative energy wasn’t there.. rubbing off on other staff members it will be a wonderful place for your children and you would actually feel safe knowing there are ppl who truly care for them.

  • This school/daycare is highly recommended. My children have been gone here since babies and one is now in kindergarten and the other is on her way to kindergarten in June. They have phenomenal workers and they treat you like family.

  • LOVE this place! My 3yr old grandson had only gone there a week and was already cheering in the morning when he found out he got to go to "school". They are wonderful with the kids. The facility is clean and bright. We have felt comfortable dropping off the kids since day one.
