Hands down the best daycare around town!!!
This little piggy has taken care of both of my boys from 8 months to prek. I have never felt that my kids are in an unsafe atmosphere. Every teacher will talk to you when you walk in, if you know them or not. But at this little piggy, you know everyone. It’s a built in family as soon as you enroll your child. The classrooms are clean and set up success. We are forever grateful for all the staff.
Beyond blessed to have such a great group of people take care of my child while I’m at work. It gives me great peace of kind to know that my son is loved and looked after by such a great staff. Thank You TLPA & TLPA2 for everything that you do.
