I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place!!! As a mother of young twins and a toddler, finding the right place for my children was a daunting task, but Short Stuff has exceeded all expectations. The teachers are incredibly warm and attentive, creating a nurturing and safe environment that my children absolutely adore. The facility is top-notch, and the staff goes above and beyond to ensure every child feels included and happy. I highly recommend Short Stuff to any parent looking for exceptional childcare!

Where can i start, this daycare is amazing. Denise is the best! Always there to answer questions and support the families. The teachers, especially miss jacki, miss susan, and miss ruth have been amazing the last 4 years. As a new mom they helped me grow so much! They supported my son always, especially on hard days. He has matured and grown so much being here. I dont even have the words to express it. I was scared and nervous to leave my baby but he was always safe and supported there. If they bussed to my district my son would stay there forever! We will miss everyone and he will return for summer camp! We love you short stuff!!

We love short stuff! My 2 year old is always so excited to go to see her friends and Ms. Gaby. My child has been going here since she was 8 months old and we've never had major issues. Any concerns are addressed quickly without issue. My girl has learned so much and I love all the crafts they do! The summertime is the best with water play. Ms. Denise is very quick with communication and gladly answers all my questions. We're home for the summer but can't wait to return in the fall!

I have had children attend Short Stuff over the past 13 years from the ages of 6 weeks through elementary after-school care. The facility is very clean and bright, and the children have access to a giant, enclosed play yard for fresh air and exercise. We have worked with many wonderful teachers, but Miss Tiffany stands out as a particular gem. She develops amazing immersive experiences for older toddlers that my children still talk about, like NASA week, where the kids all come home in custom NASA shirts proudly talking about their space exploits. The on-site director is warm and helpful and took time to develop relationships with my children. The kindergarten program is excellent and my kids were more than prepared to transition to their public school classes. While I don't like to comment on other reviewers' experiences, I do have to say that the negative review before this one does not reflect the experience that I have had over 13 plus years with children at Short Stuff. My kids always loved going and now talk about how, when they grow up, they want their kids to go there too!
