I have 2 kids attending this daycare. One has been going for nearly 3 years and the other almost 2. I cannot say enough great things about Ms. Cristian and her staff. We chose this daycare because our oldest was going to start pre-k and we needed safe and reliable daycare for just a couple hours a day. We got so much more than that. Our oldest gets help with her homework, they both eat healthy foods throughout the day, and they learn so much. Both kids even speak a little bit of Spanish! When Covid struck, they did everything they could to stay opened. They set up a classroom for older kids who had to switch to online classes and they even sent home extra food twice a week so the kids would have snacks at home. We are very happy with our kids going to this facility and highly recommend it. Thank you, Ms Cristian for everything you do for these kids.
I have used this facility now for a total of 3yrs +_. My daughter was 2yrs old when we 1st enrolled at a previous location in the 70s. She was immediately welcomed and loved. Christensen Loves her Babies unconditionally, even the ones with behavioral issues. No child is treated different. No Child is Ever excluded. She Goes So far beyond her reach to make sure NO Child Gets Left behind. Provides Healthy meals and snacks daily. She is running a business but knows circumstances may change at any given moment so $$$ is not what she see's and is not in the business of JUST collecting a pay check. She wakes up at before sun rise to pick the children up FREE of charge within range. Every Holiday they are provided with items to enjoy. I allowed my child to stay in her care even though she qualified for Pre K - I felt she would be better watched, and educated P4L it is Definitely worth the out of pocket cost to do so. I even pulled my son from another well known facility who now at the age of 2 speaks Spanish, learns sign language as one of the teachers wore a hearing aid, he can count , abcs, 123's my daughter was taught to count by 2's,5's and 10s so she is so well prepared she can skip kindergarten and attend a 1st grade class. I wouldn't choose any other provider in the area if u want QUALITY CARE & EDUCATIONAL NEEDS MET...
P4LIFE is a excellent place to send your child. I have had great experience with this center for 2 years professionally and they are very knowledgeable about children. They have hours no another daycares have. I give A 5 STAR RATING.
For the safety of your children I beg you to NOT send your children here! The owner does a good job at her speech she gives on the safety and educational material they provide here but it's all a joke. And once you do your enrollment you will never see her again because she does not work there and over heard that she had a anotherr job. The building is unsafe and unsanitary. There are thousands of holes in the roof that noticed when I came to pick my daughter up on a rainy day and there was reading pouring in from the ceiling. Not leaking but pouring!! And it roach interested to. The staff there are very rude and cross boundaries with the children as I seen one staff hit a child. I took my child out of this center quick fast and in a hurry and so should you.
