As a first time mother, I was blessed to have First Priorities recommended to me. 99% of my family lives out of state and finding a credible day care before my child was born was a major concern for me. Fortunately, my boss recommended First Priorities. My child attended First Priorities from the age of 3 months old (Oct. 2012) until it was time to enroll in school and start Kindergarten. We still use the day care whenever CMS is closed for school breaks. I love this place! I can not sing its praises enough. Take this time to insert all wonderful adjectives now, because otherwise, you'd be reading my review FOREVER. I never worried about my child's safety. So much was taught that I never felt uneasy about choosing to skip preschool before enrolling my child in Kindergarten this year (Aug. 2017). My only regret is that all of my friends with children live out of state so I can't recommend First Priorities as much as I would like. I keep business cards in my purse at all times just in case I get an opportunity to suggest First Priorities in the midst of the conversation. I'd borrow all the thumbs of all the people I know because two thumbs up is not nearly enough.
