My son attends this daycare and I am quite happy with his experience there. He is in the toddler room right now. He enjoys all the kids, and he loves his teachers. I have not encountered any issues with the staff or owners themselves. I love that my son doesn't cry when I drop him off and I literally have to drag him out every day. He loves it there. As far as cleanliness, every day when I pick up my son they are vacuuming and the rooms are clean too. I have never smelt bad sewage or anything nasty. This place is affordable and it works well for me and my son. I would highly recommend this daycare to anyone.

The teachers are great! My daughter loved the daycare but the issue was the OWNERS!! Extremely greedy, inconsiderate, unsympathetic and do NOT care about your situation. I asked the owner if I could pay at a later date due to some financial issues and he straight up said NO and that he would have to unenroll my daughter. I understand this is a business but we have been there since the school year started and have been paying on time. Well he did just that and unenrolled my daughter and we will not be going back! My daughter has been to about 3-4 daycares and every time I had to pay late I could and would pay a late fee. I wasn't given the option here. We had other issues with the daycare but this one was the last straw. Truly sad! Don't enroll your kids in this daycare cause all they care about is $$$!!

Do not enroll your kids here, I worked here for about 6 months. The teachers are great but the owners do not care about the kids, the daycare is dirty the food served is disgusting. It is not worth your money at all. I worked with the toddlers, when they are sick with the flu etc the other parents aren’t warn. They like to keep the bad a secret, like the post below said. One of the restroom is falling apart it is a danger hazard to kids, the sink if hanging on my a thread. I repeat keep your money don’t enroll kids here

*********WARNING DANGER******* YOUR KIDS ARE NOT SAFE HERE!!!! My child who is in the toddler class and doesn't talk yet had several scratches on his face. When I asked his teacher christina what happened at first she didn't know then she made up the story he did it to himself when rubbing his eyes she didn't know it would leave a mark. I spoke with the director Erma who was very dismissive but said would have the teachers keep a closer eye on him. The next day I picked my son up I noticed right away he had a busted top and bottom lip. I asked the director Erma what happensd and nobody knows what happened or even noticed it. She said he wasn't crying or anything just like she said about the scratches. Each time my child was hurt no one informed me or even took a incident report. What child don't cry when fingernails are dug in their face and lips are busted. They are lairs and cover up things. I have reported them.

I only have good things to say about this daycare,my son has only been here for 1 month 1/2 and he enjoys it very much. It didn't take long for him to warm up to Ms. Linda and she has been great with him and us. The owners Irma and Ed have been great as well. I have no complaints.
