What Parents Say

I was in awe on how much my 3yo learned here. Colors, shapes, how to write. The staff is amazing and were very loving and welcoming towards her, she will miss it here! ~to the South to the West to the North! 🤣
If I could leave 0 stars I would. I loved this daycare before when the people who ran it actually cared. My child was there for almost 3 years and was kicked out because I confronted his teacher Tequice who made my son so uncomfortable he didn’t want to come back to school. Some of the staff there is great, but some of them are very tacky and unprofessional. Would not trust my child there anymore.
This daycare is sooooooo great, I love ALL of the staff. Everybody is concern about the well being of your children or grandkids are whom ever you have enrolled in there school. My grandkids go to the school, and they have awesome teacher. My grand daughter Bles'yens has a teacher who's name is Mrs.Monica she teaches her so much and I really love her being so in her classroom she learns a lot. My grand son Legacy he is SUPER ENERGETIC lol and his teacher Ms. Shara is always waiting on him to come through the door first thing in the morning as well as the new director that they have now she is super great and is always involved with kids. It really makes me feel really comfortable dropping them off why me and my husband go to work knowing that they will be fine when I go pick them up.
