I have used this daycare since my child was 8 months old.. my child is now 8! I could not ask for a better daycare. The owners are more like extended family to my child than just caregivers. I don't know what I would have done all these years with out them!! Already worried how my child will take when she has own grown daycare. Very loving people, I recommend to all..
