Very unprofessional mixed my babies bottles up (the one with the cap is mine) now I don't know which nipple cover belongs to my son and which one is another baby's extremely dangerous. I would give them 0 stars if I could. When I started dropping my baby over there they lost one of my baby bottles but I let it slide and bought more I just realized that this happens often so I am making a review

My son has been attending for 2.5 years and he LOVES it. I love it too!!! The teachers are awesome! Very engaging. New fun activities every day. My son's favorite is going to the gym! Another one of my favorite aspects of Mikayla's Place is that they update everything on an app. So I can keep track of what he's doing, what he's eating, and see pictures of him through the day. We love it here and would recommend to anyone!!

Wonderful daycare! All of the staff are very friendly. My son participated in activities or had a craft to bring home everyday. They kept me well updated on my son throughout the day. I was very satisfied with my sons time there. I would definitely be a returning parent!

Beside the amazing Reviews I chose Mikayla’s place because during my tour I felt like this was Caring & Stimulating Environment. With so many Happy Kids in each class room I entered. Once my children were enrolled , after few weeks in I noticed An Interesting and Varied Schedule with a amazing Curriculum. ...My son does not usually talk much he’s very much on the shy side but after a few weeks he was much more open and talkative after being in Ms Alyssa’s class she’s such an amazing teacher ! He loves her !! My kids have been attending Mikayla’s place for some years now and I must say they have staffed the facility with Qualified Caregivers Who Really Care about your children’s Safety, education and comfortability !

Didn’t have a good experience at all! I had high hopes for this daycare but was very disappointed early on. First off I had my tour it went great or so I thought. They seemed very welcoming. I set up a start date. The day before the date came I called to confirm because I had got no confirmation. When I finally did get in touch with the daycare’s director a day or two after the initial start date. She said she wasn’t aware my kids were supposed to start she had them down for a week later even though she wrote on the paper she gave to me the start date. She then asked me could I move my kids start date back a week. Next thing the first day my 2 year old attended they called me about 4 hours into her being there saying “she may not be ready for daycare” because she didn’t keep her shoes on and because she wasn’t responding when they called her also because she didn’t sing nursery rhymes with the class when they asked her to. My child is shy but she’s very smart she sings multiple nursery rhymes she also knows her colors, alphabet , counts to 20 and responds to her name the director asked me if I had ever had her “evaluated or checked out by a doctor “ after about 4 hours of my child being in this “learning center”. If your child is shy or needs time to adjust to knew people and places definitely wouldn’t recommend this place! They then called me while I was at work everyday after that my 2 year old attended the daycare to pick her up because she was crying. My child is shy but she’s very mellow and doesn’t cry for just no reason. I’ve dealt with daycares in the past even worked in daycares and never had an experience like this. This daycare was not very nurturing or accommodating at all. I Would not recommend!
