I was terrified of sending my kids to day care, but when I couldn’t hold off any longer for various reasons, my kids went here. From the ambiance, and the caring nature of each and every staff member, I can honestly say that this daycare has exceeded my standards and set the bar for any daycare I would ever consider sending my kids to. My heart was settled by knowing that my children were in the care of people who care about my kids as much as I do and I am forever grateful.

I would love to give a different rating, but I went to this facility just to visit and pick up paper work to enroll my child and couldn’t get anyone to come to the door at 4:35 pm. No one was at the front desk and no one answered the phone when I called while standing at the door.i rang the doorbell for about 10 minutes. No thank you. I had just saw a parent go in so the facility wasn’t closed or empty. Maybe short staffed? Either way, they will not be getting my child or my money, two things I DO NOT play about.

My 19 month old is being moved to a classroom where the majority of the kids are 2-3 year olds in the afternoon when her regular teacher leaves for the day. There is a child that CONSTANTLY bullies her and has pushed her or down and hit her RIGHT IN FRONT of me on FOUR different occassions. This particular child has also bit my child in the face and scratched her on the face on separate occassions. I have complained to the daycare manager who has done ABDOLUTELY NOTHING. Her response is basically to say, "things happen".

My grandbaby was going there... And the infant room was below standards... They are not sanitizing anything... 1 high chair.... 1 bouncy that all babies share... Only clean at end of day... Baby would come home in rashes.. Then they so called leaders would smell like a pack of cigarettes...quite a few more things... But really how did this place get a license. Run.... Dont walk but run away as fast as you can... They into 2 many violations....if you complain they will throw your child out of center in a blink of a eye... Very unprofessional.... Dont waste your time or money ... Value your child dont deal with these people.....awful... Just awful...
