I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My family has been using Littlefoot Daycare for over 16 yrs from my son who visited Ms Sharon before he went off to college last month to my sister who took all 3 of her children and countless friends and coworkers we recommended to Littlefoot Daycare. We always had peace of mind leaving to go to work that they would always have a wonderful day. Ms Sharon always treated all the children like her own and always made them feel safe and loved. She always sent pictures so we could see how much fun they were having. I know Ms Sharon had a hand in molding my son into the wonderful young man he is today. We will never forget her!

I highly recommend little foot daycare to anyone and everyone!! Sharon is great with all the kids. She is very compassionate about what she does , she loves all the children as if they were her own. I have been bringing my daughter to her since she is 10 months old and I know when I leave her with Sharon when I go to work she is in great hands and is well cared for!!

My boys have been going to little foot day care for about 2 years now and I have been nothing but impressed the way she cares for my children. They cannot wait to go to "sha Sha's" and consider her to be a part of our family. The boys are always bringing home crafts and are constantly engaged in different activities; from singing and dancing, to working in preschool work books. She has a fabulous facility with a fun & safe outdoor area. Each day when I pick them up, they are ready to and excited to tell me about the day's events. Little foot is not only affordable, but extremely flexible which is great for me as I work full time. Sharon is always accomodating and is such a great care giver; I can always count on her to give me advice about the stresses of caring for toddlers. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for day care services!

Absolutely love Sharon at Littlefoot Daycare! My daughter has been going here for a year and a half, since she was only 4 months old. She is happy and excited every single day that I drop her off, and even cries some days because she does not want to leave! She has so much fun with the other kids, not to mention all the crafts, activities, and holiday parties Sharon organizes. Love that they have a circle time, story time, and activities planned. Definitely educational, no kids just sitting around watching TV at this daycare. So glad I found Sharon - I can go to work knowing that my little girl is safe and happy, which is so very important. Highly recommend this daycare!

My family has been using Littlefoot Daycare for at least 15 years between my kids and that of my brother in laws. We know our kids are always happy, stimulated and safe with her. Sharon is fully certified and has extensive experience with many children of various ages, from infant to middle schooler children. She puts on parties for all major holidays and their birthdays, they eat and drink healthy, they are always doing some kind of arts and crafts, singing, dancing, counting, colors, shapes and alphabet etc.... She has a nice sizes backyard for the kids to play outside, with play houses and slides, and they play in the sprinkler in the summertime!

The bottom line is that she treats our kids like they are her own and we could not be happier with her, and therefore would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone as I have before to a co-worker, they also appreciate her as much as we do!

When I started looking for a daycare to put my son in it was very stressful. So many providers didnt seem to have the love and compassion for the business. It was more of a business transaction than anything elce. When I called Sharon to set up an interview she was kind and understanding. She let my son and I come over and stay for well over an hour with his new friends and I was able to ask every question known to man and Sharon patiently answered each one. She made me feel confident that my son would be safe and loved. I knew Littlefoot Daycare would be the perfect fit for my family.
Sharon was the type of provider that clearly cared about what she did for a living.Every morning she would great my son with a huge smile, a hug and excitement for the day.She gave my time in the morning to talk about anything knew that was going on with my son. She was very flexible with the schedule anytime I needed to drop him off early or stay a little late. And the mornings I was so overwhelmed being a parent,she was a friend and provided a shoulder to cry on.She clearly cared for both my son and myself.
When I became pregnant with my second son she was overly excited to have another little guy that she could love and care for.When he was born he started going to Littlefoot Daycare at 12 weeks.I knew that Sharon would provide him love and nurture he would need at such a young age.
My family and I have since moved to North Caroline and to this day whenever we go back home to visit both boys still ask to go see Ms Sharon(or ShaSha as my little guy used to call her).
I would honestly recommend any parent to bring their kids to Littlefoot Daycare. Its a safe environment, very structured,filled with love and a great place to have your little ones stay while you are at work.

I have been bringing my kids to Ms. Sharon for 8 years. I have to say my children adore her, she treats my boys as if they are her own. She loves every child that walks in that door one might even say she babies them a little too much. If anybody is looking for daycare I would recommend her 1000% She came recommended by a Suffolk county sheriff who brought his kids to her for years!
