One of the reasons why i picIed this Daycare was because it was near my house.The second reasons why was because when i got to meet the teachers and owners they was very nice and talked about all the classrooms and teachers. Another one was when my baby got in he was showing me new thing he learned, They work with him.They have lots of people that can come to help our children and kids.They are loving and they also are interactive with the parents with gift bag, and (ETC...) I LOVE THAT THEY DO GOSPEL MUSIC AND POINT OUR BABIES AND KIDS TO GROW UP. I LOVE BRIGHTER MINES ACADEMY 2
