About the Provider

Description: A Shining Star Preschool was created for the high quality start your child deserves!

I have always felt that one of the greatest factors in a child life to ensure success is high quality childcare and that has been my mission at A Shining Star Preschool. A Shining Star was founded because I want to make a difference in the lives of children. I want to offer quality!

I bought A Shining Star Preschool because it was a school that needed love, nurturing, and care. I believed the community and children deserved to have a school that offered these things. Before, it was not a good place for children; the staff were known to physically abuse kids, there were way too many kids enrolled, there were no toys in the building– it was just not a good place for kids.
