Our son Roger spent nearly a year at this provider and I cannot say enough great things about the care he was given. They truly love him there and he spends his days playing with his friends and learning new skills. As a working mom I put my full trust in having someone watch my baby and I was so happy I selected this provider.

Leaving our 3 month old in the care of someone other than family was one of the hardest decisions we’ve had to make! This provider came highly recommended and we have been so pleased! My little one greets her with a smile every morning. I know he is happy and loved while we are at work everyday.

Sophia loves the provider! Smiles every time she sees her. She's also developed her skills working with her to grab things and actually made her like tummy time. We also love the pictures she sends of Sophia with her friends.

As a full-time working mom, leaving my kids in someone else's care every morning is one of the hardest things I have to do. My heart breaks just a little bit more each day, knowing I will miss so many precious moments with my kids, while someone else will be there to witness so many of their "firsts". It's a feeling I'm sure I share with so many other moms. Thanks to this provider I can feel a little bit better about leaving my children every day because I know they are in the hands of caring person who cherish them (almost as much as we do) and seem to understand how much I must miss them every day. This provider have been fantastic about keeping us up-to-date on the highlights of our children's days, sharing their funny moments and their latest achievements. And the best part is that we don't always have to wait till the end of the day. She send us texts and photos when they know it's a moment we wouldn't want to miss. Like the first time the my child snuggled up. Their messages brighten my day, make me laugh, and help me to feel that even though we're apart, I'm still with my kids somehow. I'm so grateful to this provider for helping us give our children such a great start in life, and for including us in the moments we would otherwise miss out on. Thank you!

Excellent in home daycare. My daughter attended from the age of 3 months to 4 years and was lovingly cared for everyday. It is more of a pre-school setting as the children are taught colors, numbers, the alphabet and how to write their names. There is also plenty of play and crafts. Fresh meal are cooked daily for the children.

This provider has created a warm, friendly, and supportive learning environment for children. Our oldest daughter was under her care for 2 years and our youngest was with her as an infant-we only left because we moved out of the area. Outside of myself, this provider knew my children best and they thrived under her care. We worked together to ensure they were eating, sleeping, and learning as appropriate for their ages. My youngest daughter was a premature baby with some special requirements, but I felt totally at ease leaving her in this provider's capable hands. Our oldest was well ahead of the other children when she began preschool - a testament to the play curriculum at this provider's place. This provider went above and beyond to work with our family to help us receive military subsidies, structure care around our respective work schedules, all while helping our children meet developmental milestones. I can't recommend her enough!
