I have two children who go here. It is an amazing child care facility. As a first time mom I was nervous sending my child to day care but he has thrived. He loves his teachers, one even refers to herself as his Abuela. He learns so much! He speaks and understands Spanish. Everyone we have interacted with at the center has been phenomenal. I would highly recommend it to other parents. Such loving and attentive staff. They are like our second family.

In 1999 my mom put me at this daycare at 6 months and I stopped going till 2004 since we moved. I have a lot of memories of this place at that time it had a different name. The teachers were great ! We would go on amazing field trips and had a lot of fun events. This place is like family ! Wish I can go back in time and enjoy these moments again !

I do not have enough good things to say about this place. It is more than a daycare. It is a family. I have never thought twice about my daughter there while I am at work. She has been going there since she was 1 and now she's 5. While the staff and incredibly caring, they go above and beyond to treat every child as if they were their own. They also concentrate on techie life skills as well as educational milestones. I would suggest it to anyone who wants to take there child there

Great program. They emphasize looking at the whole child, and meeting needs of nutrition, health care as well as learning and playing. This could mean things that are small annoyances like not having a birthday party. But for other parents who don't have the disposable income --that could be a burden. So I had to learn we don't send a cake (not nutritious anyway) and we do more volunteering. It a good way to see education.

People in Admissions never answer phone calls.... or return calls .. Centro nia was great before now everyone is brand new or just tired of working there.
