Take A Break has been like a second family to my daughter and I. I cannot express enough the gratitude I have felt as a working single mother knowing that my daughter is safe and well-cared for in their facility. My daughter has been attending their daycare for several years and even attended kindergarten at their location. I have taken their parenting courses and learned very valuable tools about how to improve my parenting to enrich and strengthen my relationship with my daughter. Every staff member is kind, supportive and genuinely attentive to the needs of the children. I have marveled at their ability to manage the children and their responsibilities while volunteering on field trips. I cannot say enough good things about this daycare and anyone would lucky to have them as part of their family. I know that I can always count on them to keep my daughter safe and feel as loved and cared for as I would and I am deeply thankful for this peace of mind.

We absolutely love Take-A-Break Children! The love and care they give to our little one is unmatched. We truly appreciate the warm and nurturing environment they provide every single day. One of the highlights for us has been the parent class offered by the daycare. It has been incredibly insightful and has equipped us with valuable tools to become better parents. The staff's dedication to fostering both the children's and parents' growth is evident and commendable. We highly recommend Take-A-Break Children to all our friends and family. It is a wonderful place that feels like an extension of our home, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. Thank you, Take-A-Break Children, for all the love and support you provide!

This is an amazing childcare facility. We have sent two kids starting at age two and have loved this place. The staff are kind and helpful and love our kids. They plan fun field trips over the summer and offer flexible care options. Whenever anyone we know is looking for a childcare place we send them to take a break!

Our son has been going here since he was 4 months old. Overall, we've been very happy with the experience for him. They seem to have a lot of enriching activities and the center has a cozy/family vibe. I absolutely love that they provide snacks and lunch. He gets much more variety than if it were just me packing his lunch every day. The hours are great, too. He loves going to see his friends and teachers, and that's what's most important!
