I have been really impressed with the patience and kindness of the staff. One thing that stands out is that they really focus on education. I have walked in several times to see them doing worksheets with the kids and teaching them or helping with homework. My daughter is in kindergarten and they work with her. She absolutely loves the staff. I have never been more impressed or pleased with a childcare facility for my child. Highly recommended! I just wish they were easier to find on Facebook.
