Mrs.Shirley's daycare was a lifesaver for me,when I lived in Winston.The daycare was truly an family type environment!! Real home cooked meals,Mrs.Shirley not only nurtures her children who attend, she has also been a Mother to countless single&married families. Both my children had attended and the "Potter's House" will always be 5Stars in my book!!!!?
