It is hard to find a good daycare, I finally found one with good people operating it.We love this place and my children have learned a lot. I tell people all the time of how good it is and everybody I tell agrees as well. I love the program and the curriculum.
We love this daycare school. It is clean, has professional staff and teachers.Great communication, loving environment and they really care about the children.
My daughter has been here since they open. Never had a problem. I love each site and I love the staff and Owners. My daughter has learned so much and I am very impressed and proud of her accomplishments. she is always aware socially and academically above those of her age and I know this is because of her attending this childcare center.
We Love this Daycare, been here for over two years now m. My wife and I are happy with the way they handle our children and learning experience is great . Very clean, quality care and great environment they have 2 sites and both are to our liking. It’s hard finding good care and one who teaches . We will be here as long as possible.
Love this Daycare, they have 2 sites and both are equally great quality. Always clean, staff and Director are always polite and informative. Quite evident they love what they do and my children never want to leave. My children have learned so much and my husband and I are very pleased.
I love this daycare! I have brought my kids to several daycares and they can approve this is the absolute best daycare in the world.They actually teach my kids instead of sitting them in front of a TV screen.I absolutely adore the staff and they treat every child as their own.My favorite person in the whole world has to be Ms.Desh she is so understanding and flexible, i have never had bad times with her and don't think I ever will.OVERALL BEST DAYCARE EVER!
My daughter was is enrolled here.. We love it, at first I thought it was too good to be true and they would soon change. However, the pleasant attitude of the Director / Owner was consistent. She was always full of energy, pleasant and genuinely concerned about the children and our family. Her staff followed wit the same characteristics. Great place, Great Team and Great to be apart of the Designing Mind Family..
I was really impressed with this facility, the owner, and the staff. My children felt at home and didn't want to leave at the end of day. The curriculum was thorough and my children were the top of their class once they transitioned out to a higher school grade. Very inviting environment and the diversity of students and staff was a bonus!!
Ilove this daycare, my children started years ago when they were in the home. I can trust her and her staff. My children love to come and are not too happy when its time to leave.I dont leave my children with anyone but this group I feel comfortable.The place is always clean and my children come home teaching people what they learn about food,academics,and different cultures.Everyone is always pleasant and have never been around angry staff, child or other parents from this daycare. I love them.
Best daycare provider I have ever meet. I met her in Ccis 2yrs ago looking for a good daycare for my daughter we started talking because she like my daughter jacket she had on that day and we been with her ever since. She also picks my son up after school too. She was send to me as God blessing because I don't know what I would do without her
Simply fell in love with this place and the staff. Very colorful and inviting. I traveled from Delaware 45 minutes to have my children here . Until we moved out of state, Looking for something similar in my hometown , very hard to find quality care and education in one place.
