This daycare is truly a hidden gem!! My daughter's have been with my joy for the past 2 years and this daycare has never failed to go above and beyond for the kids and parents. The learning curriculum they follow during the school year has given my 4 year old the tools to go into kindergarten already able to read, spell, and write non-compound words. My youngest daughter has been with my joy since she was 4 months old and was talking before she was a year old. The kids get to also have really fun in building field trips like the petting zoo, meeting fire fighters, sweet frog ice cream parties, along with all the holiday parties and I cannot leave out the best Halloween trunk or treat that my joy hosts each year! On top of all of this I've noticed that over the 2 years we've been here the daycare staff has remained the same so my kids have been able to really connect with the staff and they love going to daycare. The peace of mind My Joy provides has been substantial and priceless for our family.

This place is amazing! Not only are they cheap, but they also provide two meals, snacks, and field trips. I have never seen my kid so happy at a daycare before. They've even been talking more. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a cheap daycare that goes above and beyond for their kids.

Recommend by another parent & I love them. I can tell my son learns new little things, like clapping & saying bye bye when leaving the facility. The staff are very punctual. I also love how they do a lot of craft activity’s. He comes home with cute little projects.

I really love this place, my son came from a daycare where everyday I was told he was having issues. He was having some issues at home as well so I believed what I was being told. After about 6 months what they were telling me was not my child at home, it all came to a head when they told me my child spit on another child (not anything I have ever witnessed my child do) come to find out he had a hair caught in his throat and was trying to get it out but was told by the daycare that he was spitting on other children AND his teacher. We left that place the same day and called My Joy to see if they had openings. My son had became angry and defiant while at the previous daycare but after 1-2 weeks at My Joy, he was back to his happy loving self. I can not stress enough how wonderful the staff and care environment is. All the teachers know the kids names and there is a community feel in the environment. They host holiday gatherings and even graduations for the kids, it’s not just a place to drop off your kids. They are loved and nurtured. This daycare is a gem in our community and would recommend them to anyone looking for top notch care.

Literally the best daycare around! My kids have been attending this daycare since they were 6 months and 1 years old and they are now 2 and 3 years old. The staff goes above and beyond to teach the kids and always communicate well with the parents and children. They all are always super patient and calm. My kids love going here and always super excited about attending daycare. The staff and whole daycare itself is very family oriented and always shows interest in making sure the kids are good. We literally live 30 minutes away but won’t switch because we love this daycare so much. Highly recommend to anyone looking for amazing childcare you’ll definitely fall in love. Thank you My Joy Family we really love and appreciate everything. The Edwards Family
