It felt like my child went to their aunts for the week! there were playing with their cousins. It was the closet thing to home. Small, not teachers maxed out with too many children. They loved my children as much as I do certainly and even though I haven't got to see these great ladies and one awesome man in a while I see their pictures and thank God they were in my daughters and nephews life for so long. Safe, clean, informative, teaching and love. If I ever had another this is where they would be.
I have know the owner for so many years now and she is a amazing person and kind hearted to very kind person
