We love the owner and this daycare. It was very challenging to leave our little 3 month old at daycare but she is so loving and supportive and we know he is treated well. He is always so happy to go in the morning and all the ladies are so sweet. It is a big relief off our shoulders that we found such loving, kind care when we cannot be with our little boy.

We absolutely LOVE the owner and her staff. Most importantly, our son does too. This daycare is conveniently located in our quiet neighborhood. We looked everywhere for a daycare and this place has seriously exceeded our expectations.

Our daughter truly thrives under the care and instruction of this provider and her team. They provide daily pictures, daily written reports, and yearly developmental assessments. The curriculum is shared with parents and communicating with the teachers is easy. My daughter loves recalling her day at school and has made many friends.

Extremely happy to entrust my son to this home. Very professional personnel with documents and forms up to date. They are all very experienced and compassionate. Very few places have people with the gentle care and patience everyone has here. 100% would recommend.

This daycare is a wonderful place for children to grow and develop feeling safe and loved. My son was always thrilled to stay there with his teachers and friends. I can assure this provider always keeps updated with the latest child care learning techniques and she provides nutritious meals every day. They keep up with the holiday calendar doing handcrafts and having little parties according to the theme. I got a daily report of my son's meals... more

My children have attended this daycare since they were each 16 weeks old. I am pleased with the care and learning they receive in a warm, nurturing environment. I also appreciate the extra cleaning and health measures they take in response to the pandemic, which allows me to contine to work during these trying times.

This provider genuinely cares about all of the kids at her daycare. She really helped me out with transportation on short notice when I didn't have anyone else. She decorates for all the holidays and has nice parties.
