Description: Rainbow Child Care Center’s program has been developed to serve the needs of today's family. We answer the dilemma that many parents face: where to find quality child care.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.

The children told us that their teachers were mean, and at first we didn't believe them, but we should have.
I was deeply saddened to discover the depths of apathy and abuse that occurs in this facility. No child's teacher should stand him up and have his peers humiliate him. No child should be left in poopie diapers/undies all day, and no child should be further abused as retaliation for telling their parents the truth of what they're enduring. ????
