My child started his first daycare at My very own school at te age of 2. Being a full time student and working mother led me to enroll him at an earlier age than expected but after seeing my child's cognitive,social, and physical development I can honestly say I owe it all to this school and the teachers. Affordable and worth it, even though it is a small school in my opinion it is a better way to work hand in hand with the child and have a closer relationship with the teachers and director. Much recommend it
