Thrilled Parent! Oct 18, 2023

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My child has been at this daycare since he was 6 weeks old! He is now 2 and still there! He is treated VERY well! The staff are INCREDIBLE and teach my son so much! They show incredible care and excellent with parent communication when my child is having a tough day or period. Thank you for treating my son with such incredible care and loving him as he deserves!

Report made to DHHS. Melissa Simeo owner and CEO is guilty of locking children in the bathroom. When questioned by staff, she tells them the parents agreed.
Keep your children away from this place.

Amazing daycare! The staff are super friendly and they all take the time to get to know your child personally/needs/wants etc. They are great at following parent requests and really take the time to TEACH your child. Melissa (owner) and Marci (manager) are wonderful ladies and drive the business with heart, not just a paycheck. Prices are beyond reasonable and I couldn't ask for a better team. They care for and love these kiddos as if they were their own.
