We love our PMA family..My daughter has been attending since 2022 and i wouldn’t have her anywhere else. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a daycare. The staff is amazing, the building is fun, bright and clean. They care about the children’s learning and development along with having fun throughout the day.. We love you PMA!

Highly recommend!! Precious Moments Academy is my sons 2nd home, they have become our family! Staff is very friendly, and they always give updated reports on your child and you dont even have to ask. They have WORKING cameras and you are allowed to check on your child while they are there. I love them 😍

After diligently searching for a daycare closer to my home, despite encountering one negative review I chose Precious Moments Academy. Unfortunately, my experience mirrored the concerns raised in that review. The director, Ajele, displayed unprofessionalism and rudeness throughout our interactions. One particular incident that troubled me was witnessing Ajele's dismissive attitude towards my daughter's distress upon my departure. Such behavior observed in my presence raised concerns about the quality of care provided when I was not present. Therefore, after just one week I made the decision to withdraw my daughter from the facility.
