I was nervous about putting my daughter in a new daycare. My daughter attended daycare on Fort Bragg from an infant to age 3. I looked at several daycare centers and finally decided on Sunshine House off Camden Road. The location and hours are perfect for my family. The staff is great!! They are always polite. I really like the APP feature that I have on my phone and the emails I receive from kidreports notifier. It is nice to see photos of my daughter while at work. Change is hard especially when it involves your child. Thank you to all the staff in helping my daughter and I adapt. Look forward to getting to know everyone better.
