I have used this provider for more than 6 months
My children have been attending Abacus for over 4 years. No child care center is perfect, but I can honestly say that Abacus is a center that strives to provide the best possible care. The center does NOT have a large turnover and many teachers have been there for a long time. Everyone is friendly and they all go above and beyond. My children's needs are met and I know they are well taken care of. They are learning each and every day, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the place I have chosen to leave my children when I unfortunately cannot be with them. I just absolutely love Abacus!

About the Provider
Your child will be cared for within an atmosphere of love and acceptance. We strive to help children feel good about themselves and their relationship to other children and adults. Learning is a nurturing experience. Positive, supportive, individualized relationships develop between the children and the teachers on a daily basis. Our emphasis is on the experience each child gains while doing, rather than how expertly it is done.
