Description: We believe that children experience the greatest growth when they feel secure and wanted. Therefore, We at Munchkins Place Learning Center will provide a warm, caring, comfortable and safe environment for our children. Together, we will establish routines that are predictable and consistent. All children will be treated with gentleness, honesty and respect. We will encourage them to treat others in this manner.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.

The owner of this establishment is refusing to give me my tax documents to show the amount I paid for 2022. He told me to get a lawyer.
I love the way they treat the kids my son is autistic non verbal and this is the only daycare that he loved to go to .
They taught him how to do so many things and he even started to talk more .
I miss taking him there he loved the staff and you never had to worry about a thing . The staff is what makes this place so much better than the rest ... Felt like family like home and i appreciate everything they have done i would choose them over any other daycare they go above and beyond for your kids ...
Love Vinny and Mom ????
I love LOVE this place!! The owners are great and they have a great environment!! Both my daughter and son went to this daycare and the owners and teachers got my son (now in 1st grade) ready for kindergarten writing his name, knowing the alphabet and socialized. They are now working with my daughter. She just turned 5 and know because of this place knows her full alphabet how to write them and is now working on site words daily. I couldn't have found such a great place to bring my children.
I have two very active boys aged 2 and 3. The staff are friendly and seem to care about the kids. The owners are very easy to talk with and communicate any issue with my boys to me right away. I relocated to this day care from another where my boys were constantly sick. They have maybe had a cold but nothing like the other day care. My boys run to the door when we arrive each day and have not complained about staff mistreatment. They are constantly doing a art project and my son has learned so many nursery songs. I would recommend this day care to anyone.
