Description: Our Day Care is an outreach ministry to the community where an excellent staff provides sensitive and loving care for children from six weeks through Kindergarten.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.

I only gave this place one star because 0 wasn't an option. Do not take your children here!!! This place is filthy and not up to DHS standards! Staff is undertrained and impatient. The director Rhonda is flighty and a total space cadet! She lets her own children wander around the center all day long and nobody says anything because shes the bosses kid! The other director Heather is rude to clients, kids and employees. She has been overheard talking bad about parents of children and she has even called her own child a "little a$$hole" on campus! and she and the other director, Rhonda have had screaming matches behind closed doors! Totally unprofessional, filthy and not worth the ridiculous price to bring your kids there! Most of the teachers there don't even like kids and the ones they do like get spoiled and extra attention that all kids should be getting. This place should be closed down and seriously inspected by the state!!
