I have used this provider for more than 6 months

If I could give a zero star I would. My child was abused here and I pulled them out. The place was dirty. They hardly had any staff working. My child was also placed in a dark room alone during nap time. NOT OKAY. They should not be operating.

The staff at this the Phillips Day Care are great. They truly care about my child and she just loves going there. The other children who attend always seem so happy and are very friendly and well mannered. There is an on-staff cook that makes wholesome recipes and even uses produce from the garden at the day care. The teachers do lesson-planning and always seem to offer fun and educationally valuable activities. This is the best home away from home I can give to my child. I would and do recommend this day care to everyone.
