Our son is turning 3 tomorrow and he's settled into his new daycare here in just 2 months. He likes it and always comes come talking about anything and everything and is happy. It's a smaller facility, a bit old school and in a good way. The teachers greet you and so does the director Ma Bianca. They're working with us on potty training soon. It's a clean environment, with different playgrounds in the back based on age groups. Peaceful location with tons of parking, behind a church on Redbud Drive. The app they use for communication and payment is Brightwheel, it's convenient and everything is secure and in one place. We get daily updates and one photo a day of our kiddo. They don't allow teachers to have phones out other than maybe once a day from a distance. Pricing for what you get is AMAZING. Healthy food and no more headache for me to plan meals daily like I had to at a smaller daycare we were at before. Highly recommend! Bonus bonus, we just got a beautiful family Christmas present from the daycare 🎄☺️
Our son has been going here for 5 months now and we absolutely love it! The staff have been absolutely amazing and what he is learning there at 2 years old has been great! My kid comes home happy after being here and he’s very excited to go there in the morning and I can see other kids are happy too. I highly recommend this daycare
My Daughter has been going here since she turned 1, she just turned 2 Aug' 4th. She loves it there, it's like her home away from home & looks forward to going through the week. She loves her teacher, so I just wanna thank Miss Ashley for taking good care of her like she was her own. All the teachers love my daughter & I never have to worry, I know she is in good hands when I drop her off, which is good cause I'm way over protective of her. Miss Ashley does alot of hands on activities with her students & teaches them new things daily. They also have water day once a week now during the summer, the kids love that! All & all, I'm glad we chose this daycare for my daughter, she will be going there for years to come!
My two children have been attending for about 7 months and we are really pleased with the center. The staff are great with the kids - genuinely getting to know their individual personalities. I know my toddlers are well loved by their teachers because we hear their teaches names (and of course, the director - “Mrs. Cole”) all the time. We are able to message to check in anytime and the staff is timely in response and quick to let us know if the kids are having a hard day for any reason. I also really enjoy the activities the center does where the families get to come in and be a part of them. Would recommend to anyone looking for a center in the area!
My son has been going here for a little over a year and I have nothing but positive things to say about everyone I have come in contact with. He has grown so much since starting here and the director and his teachers all really care. I feel safe leaving him here because I know he’s in good hands and that is a wonderful feeling. He also won’t leave for the day without giving them hugs before he goes which shows a lot to how much he cares for the staff.
