If you must put your child in daycare, this is the only one to even consider. Save yourself some time and just go get on the waiting list. Very very well ran. The rooms are CLEAN, neat, and organized. The workers are very sweet. I think the biggest majority of them have Early childhood education. They feed three meals a day. They have an app that they updated in real time to let you know how your child is. They randomly send pictures. Mine have been there a few months now and zero complaints. My boys don't come home with diaper rashes. And I know they've been feed. If they are soiled before the diaper changing time, they just go ahead and change them. My toddler learns so much. They work with them, teach them, I've shown up early and watch my child through the window and two workers in there interacting, in the floor with every child. The lady at the front desk, I watched her say bye to children as they were leaving and she knew everyone of their names. I guess you get the point. Highly recommend.
Tanisha PorterNov 19, 2024The teachers are mean. Slamming, yelling, and yanking up the kids is NOT OK. I worked there two days and couldn’t handle it, I’d end up in jail with how these kids are treated.
Hallie ArnoldFeb 7, 2021The teachers and staff here have always treated my kids well (especially my higher needs one). Happy to have a safe and happy place here to bring my kids.
Ashley WiseFeb 3, 2020They are very patient as well as very kind. Its clean. Also, make sure you feed them breakfast if you dont have them there by 6 :30; because if you don't they will not feed them breakfast whether they have ate or not. I was told by the owner that it was because of state regulations.
Zeera RoseSep 25, 2019Just picked up my 2 year old grandson from daycare today to see that he has pink eye! It was evident as there was pus on his bottom eyelid and green in the corner of his eye! Why would nobody notice this and call his mother??? Now, he has to suffer though the night because it is too late to get him in to see a doctor. Is this indicative of how much attention is given to these children? Not to mention that this is VERY contagious and the other children in his class are likely to get it now! So furious!!
