I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I found this daycare through word of mouth and I must say I am very happy I did. My son attends this program and I feels it is a very nurturing, safe and clean environment. The workers are very responsive and answer all of my questions. I love the curriculum and my son comes home every day learning something new.

I have toured this provider's facility, but have not used its services

I tour the daycare and it was charming, the playroom had an activity table, numbers, letters on the wall, and the most exquisite art work on the wall it was stunning. The best part was the yard it is delightful, appealing and absolutely magnificent, with a large fenced in lawn, which is great that my child can play, and in NYC you don't get that a lot. I am really considering it.
