I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My infant daughter started at this daycare center at six months old. She’s been there since December 2021 and I had no issues. The providers there are awesome and the management communication is very transparent with center updates/news. Everyone greets my child and I by name and with a smile. They have a digital approach to communicating your child’s daily activity which includes meals diaper changes and naps. This makes it easier to refer back to once you are home. They are up-to-date with the COVID-19 protocol Per CDC and local government advisement. Every age group is separated by a room or a door. There could be 2 to 3 providers in the infant room depending on the amount of infants there for that particular day. From my experience the infant room is clean frequently which leaves a fresh disinfectant smell when I enter. The cost of daycare can be pricey so the management there provide information to parents who may qualify for available financial assistance. Each infant has their own napping space in a crib that is equipped with bedding that the parents provide and is cleaned weekly. All infant milk for that day must be made and provided. They are open to the breast-feeding option for those mothers who select this method. The milk is stored in a large refrigerator/freezer provided by the facility. They do not provide the bottles but they do provide plates/bowls and utensils for those who eat solids. So labeling is very important. My daughter’s personality, physical mobility and social skills has blossomed so far at this daycare. They have ample toys, swings, bouncers and high chairs for the children. I would recommend this center to everyone.
