I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I find the employees to be very professional and polite. I highly recommend this daycare. My grand daughter loves it and learns a lot. The price is very reasonable.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

The director and book keeper are extremly unproffessional. Sone teachers are good but the daycare has a awful smell of cat urine that stays in your childrens coats. They take advantage of low income mothers who has programs.... teachers fought making it a very dangrous place for your children. Do not waste your time. They are not for the children daughter and mother are there for a paycheck.

The parent that left this review had their child in care with us for almost two years. She only became disgruntled upon receiving a bill that she didn't agree with. It's unfortunate that this is how she chose to handle it. Queen's Daughters has served thousands of children and we stand by our quality reputation for 116 years!
