I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Ruth and her team are amazing! I’ve been taking both my children there for almost 3 years now and she treats my kids as if they were her own. I never have to worry about my children when I know they are at Butterfly Daycare. Enrolling my kids in Ruth‘s care was one of the best decisions I made when I moved into this area!

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

The owners have been phenomenal with my twin girls. They have been caring for my children since they were several months old, and now they are turning eight and are still under their care.

What I am happy about is that my children are a part of a loving and caring family. Mrs. B’s doors and heart are always opened to my children and I.

Thank you so much for caring for my children as if they were your own.

Dr. Spencer
