I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My son LOVES Mrs. Kim which makes me love her! Before finding Mrs. Kim he was attending Greenhouse Early Learning. He would scream cry at drop off, and no matter what time I picked him up he would be waiting at the window crying happy tears when he saw me. I would feel so guilty all day. But after starting at Mrs. Kim’s he is excited to go, he happily walks right in without even saying bye at drop off. Some days he doesn’t even want to leave at pick up because he’s having so much fun! You can tell a lot by your child’s reaction and I didn’t learn that until he started at Kim’s, I thought it was normal at his prior daycare. And as the parent she makes me feel comfortable to talk to as well she is very nice and caring!! I am so grateful for her. 10/10 recommend!!
