I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I was really reluctant to send my child to this school because of my own personal reasons but, the staff are awesome! I love the fact that they communicate with me about my child and different things that are going on a daily basis and I feel they are fair. This school does a lot for the kids as far as field trips, outdoor activities, and different programs, such as Valentine's Day dance, Black History program, Christmas program, Picture Day, and different activities for the parents, and grandparents.... They are always doing some type of educational or informative activities with the students. My child is now confident, she can count to 100, she can count money, she knows her shapes and colors, my child is reading and she is only 5 yrs old. She articulates her words very well. she is definitely ready for kindergarten. This school is awesome and I would strongly recommend this school to anyone that is looking for a family friendly school that take time with the kids and cares about their well-being. It is obvious that the staff love their jobs because of their interactions and their attention to detail with the children. They are always finding new creative ways and ideas to educate the kids. I want to give a special thanks to Mrs. Kristin, Mrs. Terri, Mrs. Beverly, Ms. Krishelle, Mrs. NeNe, and all the staff that I didn't mention, Thank you for making my little one feel welcomed and loved. This school is a hidden jewel.

This child care did not teach my child value when she first attended at the school there was child that was biting her I didnt approve of that then I started having trouble with the school being money hungry they dont think about the care of your child they just want money they charge for day that the school is close as well so if you are the kind of person that want to be charge for day that your child is not attending be my guess.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
