You could not ask for better child care. I had to leave my first born with the Winston's and I have never regretted that decision. If I still lived in Fayetteville my son would still be with them today. I was nervous, scared,distrusting and they took it all away. I worked over an hour away and it was like leaving my baby with family. I was free to call as I needed to check on my son. Even before my son started my husband and I stopped by on several occasions to meet with the Winstons and check out the daycare. They have nothing to hide and welcome in at anytime. The Winston's are God fearing, no non sense, education driven, and family orientated people. They are open and honest with you. Their home is CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN..... I love it.... you will take your shoes off at the door and wash your hands EVERYTIME you enter the front door. This post is all over the place but it's only because I was really pleased with the care my son received. My husband and I stand behind this company 210%. They even do field trips. I really wish they would move so I can go back to work full time!!!!! You would not go wrong choosing this facility for your child!!!!
