I have used this provider for more than 6 months

The staff are very loving and kind to the parents and children that they serve. The classrooms are always so neat and clean and my child is always clean and dry (diaper) when I go to pick her up. This is a great place for your child to learn good social skills, problem solving techniques and receive positive redirection and verbal encouragement.
