What Parents Say
5 reviews from parents
As a parent, there is nothing more comforting than knowing your child is happy and well cared for, and this daycare provides exactly that. The teachers are incredibly welcoming, loving, and attentive, making every drop-off feel reassuring. My daughter is always greeted with smiles, and I can truly feel the care they have for each child. We are beyond thankful for the amazing team here.
I am so grateful that I found a daycare that I 100% trust my kids to be at. All of the staff are so welcoming and it warms my heart! All 4 of my kids ranging from school age kids to infants attend this location. The moment I met Ms. Kim during my tour in February I immediately knew this was the right place. All the teachers are very good at communicating when it comes to any concerns they have. I absolutely love the updates and pictures I get on SproutAbout throughout the day. The real cherry on top that eases my mommy mind was being able to randomly drop in on the cameras to see my babies when they are checked in. I will 10/10 always recommend this daycare to everyone!
My kids love it here and it’s important to me that they tell me they feel safe and secure any time they’re here. Also, love the communication with the education and leadership team . Thank you all.
My 4 year old nephew goes here when he is in town and he loves it. He would come home singing songs and talking about his new friends everyday. The staff and teachers were really caring and communicated in a timely manner.
My son came here during his stay with me in the summertime. I couldn’t be more appreciative of the staff for taking such good care of him. They are communicative and kindhearted people. There is also an app that allowed me to check in on my son throughout his stay and had pictures provided daily.
