What Parents Say
5 reviews from parents
I absolutely love this daycare! I toured 4-5 different daycares before I chose Happy Hearts. I still remember the day I went for the tour. My daughter went with me to each daycare and didn't run off to play with the other kids until we got to Happy Hearts and that's when I knew this was the place for us. My daughter has been going here since 2018 when she was 1.5 yrs old, and my son has been going since he turned 2 months old in June 2021. They have always treated my children and myself like family. Mari and all of the teachers here care so much about the children and I couldn't have asked for a better daycare. Sadly, we will be leaving them after all these years, but they will always be a part of our family.
My daughters have been going here for about four months now, and they honestly love it. They've settled in really well, and I think a big part of that is how friendly and caring the staff is. The teachers are great they treat the kids with respect and make them feel safe and welcome. Ms. Mari is a great director . She's super helpful and always takes the time to answer my questions or talk through any concerns. You can tell she really cares. I'm so glad we found this place.
We are about to wrap up seven years at HHBLC. I can honestly say we TOTALLY lucked out by choosing this place for our 10 week old daughter. As she was our first, the HHBLC team made us feel SO confident that she was being well cared for. The staff and family who run the campuses became family of ours - even babysitting on occasion! We are sad our youngest is aging out, but so so grateful for the love they've shown our family. Highly recommend HHBLC!!!
I have so much respect for all the people working here. I am so glad I found this place for my sweet baby. The director is more than just a director, she cares for all the kids like her own and I observed it, shout out to you! teachers are amazing and team work is at a whole other level here.Every single person working there always looking happy and I can tell they all love what they do. Thank you so much for caring for our children. I am always at peace when at work because I know my baby is in good hands.
My baby boy started when he was 2 months. He is now almost 6 months old and in infant room.I visited many child care facilities before choosing Happy Hearts. My son has never cried at drop off. I’ve never seen any of the children being upset or hesitate when dropped off by Loved ones. The director is very hands on with children, staff, parents. His teachers have great energy, and genuinely take awesome care of my baby. They also have given me great tips about his developmental needs to use at home. Also he is finally on a schedule! When picked up he is clean,fed, dry diaper- never had a rash. I’m given daily communication sheets. This is a 2nd home while I work and the vibe is more like family. Definitely recommend Happy Hearts!!!!
