I have used this provider for less than 6 months

I am unsure why a person would find it so necessary to write such slanderous words about Ms.Tai, or her facility. My daughter attended The Nuturing Place for 2 years. During that time she learned a great deal. The environment was loving, and supportive. An overall great place for any child to start their journey.

I have no idea what Fran is talking about. My daughter had been in several home based daycares prior to us finding The Nurturing Place. We could not have felt more fortunate. Taihisha runs an outstanding daycare that fosters learning, growth, and development of social skills far beyond any other location I have ever seen. Taihisha’s communication - not only with me but also with my daughter’s service providers who provided services at her daycare - served as integral in my daughter’s ability to grow by leaps and bounds while she was there. My daughter was well taken care of, loved, and nurtured beyond what I would expect. The only reason she no longer attends is because she is now in school but we go back to visit all the time and my daughter still loves being in that space, and with Taihisha and her staff. I highly recommend!

My child has been receiving care at The Nuturing Place for over 3 years now. Mrs. Tai provides the most loving and educational environment where my child has only thrived. My husband and I visited several daycare facilities and interviews nannies before deciding The Nuturing Place was right for us.

Mrs. Tai does run her childcare business out of her apartment (something that is not hidden), however her apartment is transformed during the week to become an educational center. Mrs. Tai also has an open door policy so parents can stop by whenever and unannounced. There have been countless times I show up early to pick up my child and end up sticking around to observe because the children are having so much fun.

Mrs. Tai has always been open to parents about audits and anything she and her staff must improve on. Communication between her and the parents is top priority. Neither my husband or I have ever once felt like we were leaving our child in a unsafe environment.

As far as Mrs.Tai’s social media. That’s her personal life and she keeps that completely separate from her business, as most professionals do. I’ve also googled Mrs. Tai and her assistants multiple times over the years and nothing concerning has ever come up. That is why parents choose to stay at The Nuturing Place for years until their children start school.

An in home facility may not be right for everyone. But if you are looking for a loving and educational community, it would be a great fit. Mrs. Tai has done wonders getting our child ready for pre K and we couldn’t be happier with our choice.

Not sure who Fran is, but it looks like she’s basing her review on things she doesn’t know. My child was in Taihisha’s care for more than a year. The only reason she’s not still there is because we moved out of state. There was never a moment of trepidation in regards to my daughter’s care while she was at the Nurturing Place. Her growth as far as learning & social skills far exceeded my expectations. Taihisha’s very approachable & accommodating in regards to suggestions you might have to help her in regards to your child’s development. She’s gone above & beyond for parents & the kids in her care. Parents whose kids have left her care often come back to visit or when they’re on break because of the environment she provides. One of the best things I’ve done as a parent to that which is most precious to me is allow Taihisha and her staff to be a part of her life and early development.
