I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I almost believe this was the only daycare i went to for like 3 years or more. They treated me and my brother and sister like family my mom worked till 6 and they closed at 5 but would keep us there till 6 or take us to our moms job to drop us off and took us to dinner and to the baby showers and birthday parties we were always welcome and we never felt missed placed we used english and Spanish a lot i miss that place so much if when i have kids and live close i would definitely take my kids here.
