Our daughter has attended Happy Start for about 6 months and is always happy and excited to go to daycare. Ana and her team are warm and dedicated. We couldn’t be happier with sending our baby here!
Jennifer BrittonFeb 3, 2026Ana and the team at Happy Start have been such a blessing for our child. Everyone there clearly cares about the kids and works to make sure they learn and have fun every day. We’re so glad to have them in the neighborhood!
Joaquin EffertzOct 27, 2025Amazing day care! Our son loves it and is learning a lot
Kris ChatloshJul 16, 2025I was nervous about starting my toddler in daycare, but it has worked out so well! Ana is experienced and professional, and I love the way she communicates with my little one. Her passion for caring for children is obvious. My little girl was nervous at first but now runs right in and starts playing.
