This is by far, the best childcare center in the Fox Valley of Wisconsin. I moved my daughter to another center to save money, but she came back to ACII as soon as there was an opening 2 years later. There is just no comparison to ACII. The are able to accomodate children with special needs. The staff is very friendly and kind to the children. The low turn-over rate of the staff is proof that they like their jobs and really enjoy children.
