  When I asked Madelyn to tour her daycare and I got to meet her I instantly knew that my babies were going to be in good hands, she is very organized, nurturing and caring. Also very professional and most importantly clean everything handle with care she took my baby at 3 months old and made me so comfortable from the beginning about leaving my baby. If I have a question or concern she would make time to answer those questions and give me advice pointing me in the right direction. I am so happy to have her in our lives.❤️

  I highly recommend this daycare. Ms. Madelyn is really nice and very reliable. She is also very professional in the way she deals with parents. Always thoughtful and understanding of situations. This is by far the best daycare I placed my kids in. I wish I had known about her daycare years ago when I had my first child. She also keeps parents in the loop whenever something occurs. She goes above and beyond her duties to help the parents of the children in her care. For example, I had a hiccup in my daycare situation and she kindly worked with me to find a solution that allowed me to continue to work and not be forced to quit my job, which would have caused a huge financial strain on my family. My daughter loves going to daycare because the environment is very healthy and fun. This is a big deal for me because I am leaving my child behind alone. Thank you Ms. Madelyn for everything you have done and continue to do!

  If you want your children to be loved and well taking care of this is the place for you! Both of my children attended this daycare for 5yrs plus. The daycare provider doesn't just sit your kids in front of the TV all day. The children learn, play, and do plenty of activities. When one of my children was having issues with keeping up with grades nearly in the position of failing while attending this daycare my child got the support and help she needed. You don't have to worry about your children being hungry because home-cooked meals are provided. The facility is always clean.Out of all the years my children attended this daycare I have never had any issues. When the holidays come around she gives Celebration for the children. The children that attended this daycare are always happy! Every day my children were happy to attend daycare and never wanted to miss a day. Now with my children in grade school they still talk about her. They miss her! They love her! They are always saying " Can we go say hi to Ms Madelyn!?". Madelyn is very understanding and supportive as a mother herself and a childcare provider. I would always know my children were in good hands and I never had to worry about them. I would recommend this daycare to any one!

  Madelyn runs the most nurturing daycare I've encountered. With nearly a decade of experience in early childhood education, she expertly cares for each child's needs while also making learning and play fun. Walking in daily, I'm greeted by the sounds of happy kids engaged in developmentally-enriching activities under Madelyn watchful yet never overbearing supervision. It's clear she genuinely adores her young charges. As a parent, I have complete peace of mind knowing my children spend their days with someone who cares for them so deeply. In addition to ensuring safety and fostering growth, Madelyn offers invaluable support to parents. She understands the challenges working families face in balancing career and home life. If I ever need to adjust my schedule or work late, I know my kids are getting top-notch care from their "other mother." Madelyn is also a wonderful source of advice, reassurance and empathy on the ups and downs of parenting. I give her my highest recommendation for her exceptional childcare services and the strong bonds of trust she builds with families.
