First Impressions treats my children like their own! My daughter graduated from here and my son still attends they truly have some of the best teachers ever! Both of my children love going to this daycare. The Owner Colleen , the director Tina , and staff have become apart of my family! My son has learned so much from his teacher Samantha and her assistant. They are the only daycare I would ever recommend! ❤️

We are so grateful to have found this daycare. From the very first day, the teachers and staff have treated our children like family. They go above and beyond to create a safe, loving, and fun environment where kids can truly thrive. The staff is incredibly patient, attentive, and genuinely care about each child’s individual needs. I love the open communication, the updates throughout the day, and the way they celebrate milestones both big and small. As a parent, there’s nothing better than having peace of mind knowing your children are not only well cared for but also happy and learning. This daycare has been such a blessing to our family, and I can’t recommend them enough!

All 3 of our kids have attended First Impressions. The infant room is amazing. They helped us navigate the tough baby years with each of our children. All the teachers are kind and treat my children like their own. The twos room helped us tremendously with potty training. The owner and director are helpful and kind. We are greeted with a large smile every day. They have helped our kids feel comfortable with every transition. We are grateful for everyone at First Impressions.

Daycare facility is top tier. The staff is amazing, and very transparent. Staff members carry a genuine, and nurturing demeanor. Constant updates on the child’s daily activities and meals. Facility even sends pictures of your child during the day. I would recommend the facility a thousand times over and over. Pricing is very reasonable considering the overall things the daycare provide. Amazing daycare facility!

Both of my kids go here and we’ve had a great experience. My daughter started at 3 months and my son at 1, and they’re now almost 1 and 3. The staff is caring, they do fun activities, and they really teach the kids well like a school. My son knows Spanish and all his planets at just 3. It gives me peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.
