Bringing my daughter to Elizabeth has been the best decision, she's 20 months and has been with me every day since she was born. The thought of leaving her with someone I didn't know, for just a day left me with a massive amounts of anxiety. Meeting Elizabeth, and Mrs. Anna, calmed me down almost immediately. They are such sweet, caring, genuine women who I felt would treat my daughter as their own. I don't want to make this review too long but it's worth mentioning, my daughter has never taken a nap in her room. Because of health issues I had always driven her around in the car for an hour + every day. On Brie's first day with Elizabeth she took a 2 hour nap, in a pack and play. TWO HOURS! I very much appreciate all that she's done to create a safe and joyful experience for my daughter and hope that this review is helpful to other moms who are concerned about bringing their babies to daycare.
