I am the owner

I’m uncertain how I can earn the above review when a tour wasn’t conducted. This review posted very close to the time a court decision against a non- paying parent was awarded in my favor. Please come visit our country daycare home or 23 years!

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

Live in Wabash. Owner had a Bad attitude, reeked of cigarette smoke. Not somewhere I’d take my child.
