I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My daughter has been attending the YMCA daycare full time since last August. I have been so impressed with every step of there staff. They are attentive to teaching the children and to the parents to keep them informed. I'm sad to have not had my child there earlier in her daycare days, sad to leave this daycare behind on our new adventure, SCHOOL!! An amazing center I would recommend to anyone! Thankful for all they have helped teach my child!
