About the Provider

Advertisement

Being a smaller center, your children will get lots of one on one interaction with our teachers. Communication with parents is extremely important, and we have an open door policy for this reason. We encourage parents to call and check on their children throughout the day, or even stop by for a lunch break visit! We understand that leaving a child in daycare is hard, and we hope to give parents the feel that Doodlebugz is their child's "home away from home".

Additional Information:

Public Transportation is available from Darcey School, and Highland Elementary.

Education Level(s): Bachelor's Degree, Early Childhood Education, CDD-Child Development Degree, CDA-Child Development Associate, Associates Degree
