  • We have had our daughter at Safari Daycare since she was about 8 months and can say that we are immensely satisfied with the care the staff put into looking after our little one. Because it's a smaller daycare, the kids get lots of attention from the teachers. Our daughter loves seeing them and they often send her home with art. They are communicative when they need something or we need an update. When I drop her off I can rest easy and that peace of mind is priceless

  • If you are thinking about starting you’re toddler in daycare, this Daycare is definitely the one! From a worried and doubtful mother putting her 2 year old in daycare was a scary thing but this daycare has won my trust with my son. The staff are the best and show nothing but love towards the children. I highly recommend this daycare to start, you won’t regret it one bit.

  • My son Ezekiel went to Safari daycare for a year and we had a great experience. He loved going every day and was cared for by all his teachers so well. They made us feel very welcomed. I felt very comfortable with him under their care. I would 100000% recommend Safari Daycare to anyone.

  • A second home for my son. He's happy whenever he arrives, and even happier when he goes out. The staff is excellent; I've never felt uncomfortable on their part; on the contrary, they're very kind. They have different activities for the children all the time, and they learn many things, like songs, counting, and painting. The food is also good, as my son is always very satisfied. I am so grateful for their continued support. I highly recommend them.

  • My little one has been with Safari since he was 6 weeks old … They are so caring and really supported me as a new mom …. I can not say enough great things about them … My little guy looks forward to school. He is learning and exploring as a toddler now and Safari is a safe place to do so…

  • Great daycare! The staff are very loving with the children. I had my son here since he was 11 months. My son has always been excited to go to daycare. When my son reached 3 years old I switched him to a 3k and that didn't go so well. So I contacted safari daycare to see if my son wanted to go back to their daycare. When my son saw the daycare owner he ran to her arms. He is now happy again.
