"Leaving a child to go to work shouldn’t be a traumatic experience..."
At The Bay Kids, Inc., Childcare and Early Learning Center, we understand the apprehension and difficulty entrusting your children to a daycare center. Well, we’re working parents, too. In fact, The Bay Kids was designed and built by working parents to meet the needs of today’s busy families while maintaining the highest quality and the lowest tuition prices of any non in-home daycare in the Tri-county area. When it comes to professional early childhood care and learning, you will not find better care or a better price. Period.
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.
