Our daughter Mya has been attending this daycare for about three years, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. From the very beginning, she has been surrounded by genuine love, patience, and care. Ms. Lewis and her staff have gone above and beyond to support not only Mya, but our entire family. One of the things we appreciate most is their commitment to meeting Mya’s individual needs. With her autism and ADHD, it meant so much to us that the daycare helped coordinate therapeutic support and provided thoughtful accommodations to help her thrive. Over time, we’ve seen incredible growth in her communication and social skills, and it’s been truly rewarding to watch her build friendships and confidence. We also love that the program grows with the children. Even after transitioning from daycare to preschool, Mya is still able to return for the after-school program, which has made that transition so much smoother for all of us. She genuinely enjoys being there and looks forward to spending time with her classmates. Another huge plus for our family is that meals are provided, which takes one more thing off our plate as busy parents. It’s small details like this, combined with the warmth and dedication of the staff, that make such a big difference. Loving Your Family Daycare has truly become Mya’s home away from home. We deeply appreciate the care, support, and love they show our child every single day.

Our child adjusted quickly and looks forward to going every day, which says a lot. We especially appreciate the regular updates, photos, and clear communication from the teachers. The facility is clean, well-organized, and feels very safe. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing environment

You not just dropping your child off anywhere, they really treat your baby like family If you looking for a daycare that’s safe, loving, and real… this is it.
