I had the opportunity of taking my grandson to this daycare. It is an excellent daycare I love it!!! The staff is friendly and professional and compassionate. The daycare is bright and colorful and very clean. They also give the kids truly home cooked nutritional meals in which spoke volumes to me. I have had my granson since he was 2weeks old and I rate this daycare the BEST yet. Thank You Happy Days Child Care
