I have used this provider for more than 6 months
My children have been going here for four years now. The staff is wonderful, and my children thoroughly enjoy going here. They have learned so much and have made so many friends thanks to ABC Academy.

They are not a full functional daycare because they continuous send your child home saying they have a virus. What child keeps a virus for two weeks.has teething ever crossed their mind. They never have anyone sitting at the door so u can ask this question . Also if there is a virus going around you should've sanitizing your daycare so the child with the teething stops getting the virus. I'd love to know if they have a physician there to make the call on whether the child is teething or carrying a virus. Frustrated parents
