About the Provider
Hello and welcome to our wonderful facility! My name is Peggy and I am the director. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education with many years of experience in the field of childcare. I truly enjoy watching our children grow and develop throughout our programs. I value the relationships I personally develop with our children and families. I consider our school one big family and enjoy seeing each child’s smiling face when he/she joins us daily. Our staff is very dedicated to our children’s education. The children at our school are attending a NECPA accredited program that is safe, secure and full of actively engaged learners. Because communication is important to us, we work hard to ensure that all families are comfortable and have opportunities to meet with other families.
