I am the type of mom that would rather stay at home with my children but I had some situations occur and was referred to A better place christian academy. I was so afraid to leave my one year old there but after getting to know everyone in the staff and seeing how my daughter was growing in every way I was overly pleased. I love this daycare and I would refer anyone I know to allow them to care for their children. They are very attentative to each child and my daughter just turned two and says sentances and is almost fully potty trained. They are very wonderful!!!
