This is an amazing daycare! My sister’s children have been attending, and they’ve had such a positive experience. The staff are professional, compassionate, and always make the children feel loved and supported. The daycare is well organized, clean, and full of fun educational activities. It’s reassuring to know the kids are in such great hands. I would happily recommend this daycare to any family looking for excellent childcare.
Aminata CamaraJul 11, 2026I wasn’t planning on sharing my experience, but after taking some time to reflect, I think it’s important for other parents to be aware. When we toured, Miss Dora was very kind and welcoming. The environment appeared comfortable and had a cozy, homeschool-like atmosphere. However, as our start date approached, communication became inconsistent. I reached out multiple times before our first day and provided the days I would need care. The day before we were scheduled to begin, I sent a message expressing how excited we were to start. I then received a call informing me that the days I needed were no longer available and that only Saturday and Sunday openings remained. I worked with my manager to adjust my schedule to accommodate those days, but after reaching back out to confirm, I never received a response. What is most disappointing is the lack of communication and consideration for the position this put me in professionally. Situations like this can affect a parent’s income, job security, and ability to provide for their child. A simple conversation or honest communication would have gone a long way. I would not feel comfortable recommending this provider based on my experience. Rating: 0/10
Kristesia WithersJun 3, 2026Great staff great kids it’s a wonderful experience for my kids which I Weinstein think would happen at first but it was the best decision I would ever make it’s so close to home my kids love it and come home learning new things and wanting to converse with me on everything they Learned from the day I haven’t been so satisfied with a daycare for a long time mind you I have 2 kids and it’s not that much either with DHS and it’s very close to me and my children are happy and don’t won’t to even leave once I see them it’s the greatest feeling in the world
