I love Young scholars daycare. My child has been going for 3 years. The staff works great with parents. My child learned so much being there. The homemade nutritional meals are delicious.
Linda MasonMar 13, 2026I couldn’t be happier with my experience here! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and reassured by the warm, professional staff. The caregivers are truly attentive, nurturing, and clearly passionate about what they do. My son absolutely loves going every day and has grown so much socially, emotionally, and intellectually with the help of Ms Tara & Ms Myrlene. The facility is always clean, organized, and full of age-appropriate activities that keep the kids engaged and happy. I also appreciate the regular updates, pictures, and open communication from the team that gives me a peace of mind. Thank you, Ms Tara, for creating such a safe, fun, and loving environment. We’re so grateful to have found you!
Christmas SMay 17, 2025Young Scholars is an amazing daycare! My son went in at 12 months and by the end of the week he would walk away from me like he lived there.lol I love how Ms. Tara and Ms. Merleen look after these children, they treat these babies, including my son, as their own and you can tell by their excitement when they arrive. My son has adopted Ms. Tara as his Grandma - enough said. I can't recommend this daycare enough!
Jen RJan 24, 2024Highly recommend this amazing daycare. It is very safe , clean and children friendly. The staff are amazing and very understanding and cooperative with us the parents. You can rest assured that your children will be in a safe, loving , nurturing and educational environment where they are loved and treated by the staff with the utmost care and love . Trust me you wouldn’t regret sending your kids to this daycare. One of the best decisions I have made for my little ones. Ms Tara and Ms Merlene you guys are angels on earth.
Nicola WilsonJan 23, 2024Very nice great person and loves loves the kids
Cello FreemanSep 11, 2023I won’t lie I was nervous finding a daycare for my boys to go to. I tried looking numerous places but my 2 year old did not take to anyone….until we met Tara. He walked up to her hugged her as soon as he saw her. Started taking his coat and shoes off as soon as he got into the house. At that moment I knew this was the perfect place for both of my sons. Tara treats my boys with so much, love to the point where during drop off they ignore me and run to her and hug her (forgetting all about the woman who birthed them 😒). When they aren’t feeling well she is constantly checking on them as though they are her own family and I love that. She keeps me updated on their progress constantly letting me know where they are doing good at and what needs to be worked on. I would recommend this daycare over and over and over again to people who ask me if I know of a good daycare. If you want a daycare where your children are treated like family and with love…this is the place to go.
