Description: At Phoenix Child Care you will find that our commitment to quality will show in everything we do. We know that selecting a day care or preschool provider can be an overwhelming task. It will be one of the most important decisions you'll make, because the early years of child care are critical to your child's long-term development. At our day care centers you and your child will receive the personal attention that we believe is necessary to enhance a trusting relationship. As a parent, you will receive the highest quality care for your child in a setting where your child's social, physical, emotional and intellectual development will be nurtured.
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.
