I have used this provider for more than 6 months

There is nobody I trust more with my daughter than Aquarelle. My daughter has been attending since I had to return to work when she was 6 weeks old. She is almost two now. Jackie, the provider, is passionate about what she does. She truly cares about each child. She goes out of her way and above and beyond what is expected from a daycare provider. The piece of mind I have knowing my child is in good hands is worth everything to me. The pricing is beyond reasonable and much lower than other's in the area. The commitment and care Jackie has for Aquarelle is astounding, especially when you realize she has been doing this job for almost 30 years and has raised 4 children of her own. I would recommend this daycare in a heartbeat.
