My children have been going to safe haven child care for approximately 2 years and I must say I couldn't have chosen a better place for My boys ages 2 and 5. I love my boys care providers because they care so much about the kids. They give the attention needed along with a safe environment. The peace of mind I have leaving my children in their care, knowing they love and care about them as much as anyone is priceless. I am so happy to know that they are in good hands.
