I’ve had my 2yro daughter there since the infant room. I have loved every moment. The staff is so friendly and kind. They are helpful when my daughter is having a rough drop off and calm her down very quickly. The classrooms have all been educational for the age group and I have seen my daughter flourish and learn so much. I cannot recommend this center more for any age group! The office is very organized and friendly when help is needed! All the staff has amazing credentials and knowledge. They teach them how to be kind, make friends, engage in play, and best of all POTTY TRAINING!! The potty training here is so efficient and fast. They really make it feel like a family and make you feel so welcome!

If your child has special needs this is not the place , my one year old teachers were sweet and caring however my 5 year old was not treated fairly. The director and the assistant are an issue. The director is very unprofessional when addressing issues. They claim they have experienced with children with developmental delays or autism however they have no patience, accuse the child of "aggravated assault" , claim child opens door however shouldn't NO STUDENT be able to easily open doors especial if it leads to the parking areas? Please avoid if your child has ADHD or autism.

My kids have now been going to this daycare facility for 2.5 years. In those 2.5 years, they have learned so many good habits, routines, gained friendships, learned how to trust, learned separation from each other, and have excelled in their schooling. The teachers are very hands on, care about the children's feelings and well beings, listen when the kids need something, have very good communication, and strive to assist in any way possible when it comes to families. When my children were in VPK there, they excelled in ways I did not know possible due to the two teachers that were in there with them. Both the director (Gina) & Assistant Director (Heather) work very well with both the kids and the parents to ensure that everyone is on the same page when it comes to growth in your child. My kids have learned how to share, how to communicate their feelings better, how to read, write, and do math. I recommend any child of any age to go to this daycare facility.

If I could give this facility more then 5 stars I would. My son has been in this daycare facility since he was one and all the teachers have been amazing along the way. The director and assistant director are amazing as well and go above and beyond to make sure every families needs are taken care of. I could not recommend this daycare facility, Gina, Sarah, and all thr teachers enough.
