I have used this provider for more than 6 months

this was the first daycare my child went to and when I say I loved everything about Wydiah's I mean it I never trusted anybody else with my child they was so welcoming and family oriented I felt like we was related my child learned so much while attending. The owner was very nice and worked with my work schedule no matter how many times my schedule changed she use to come open up the daycare earlier then the start time just so I can make it to work on time....If you looking for a place to send your child that treats your child as if they was their own kids Wydiah"s is the place for you.
