Good balance of learning & play....patience and understanding for each child's needs....highly recommend...Love the way the director takes care of each child as if they are her own.

Luke and friends is a great day care. I feel like it is there home away from home. They provide a great service for me. My kids always share the new things they learned from them and always coming home with great artwork. The daycare makes me feel comfortable when I leave for work in the morning that my kids are in a warm and loving place.

Luke and Friends is a wonderful home daycare! It is very difficult to go back to work but it was easier for me knowing what loving, nurturing and capable hands my girls were in. My girls were always happy at Luke and Friends. What could mean more to a parent than knowing their child(ren) are happy and safe? My girls came home with wonderful projects and cards/gifts for my husband and I on holidays. Being working mom (and a mom in general) isn't easy but choosing Luke and Friends was an easy decision!

Luke & Friends Daycare is a DREAM COME TRUE!! My children run to get in that door every morning which shows us we have picked the best daycare. The love & attention our children receive @ Luke & Friends by the amazing provider & staff makes us feel as we are leaving them with family! Our children come home with wonderful projects daily as they learn a different lesson weekly (letters, numbers, holidays etc.). We save them all as they are amazing "artworks" that they have created & we will forever cherish. Not only do our children learn @ Luke & Friends but we have also. Being with our children more then we are (as both full time working parents)they have always advise(& are always right)when they knew our children were ready for another wonderful milestone in their lives(eating solids, weening off the bottle/pacifier, potty training, etc). The #1 lesson we are forever grateful for was when our son unfortunately experience his 1st fever seizure @ Luke & Friends. The provider knew exactly what to do & also kept me calm until I got to him. Her knowledge prepared us for our 1st seizure with him & we can only hope she knows how truly thankful we are for her & Luke & Friends. We set out looking for a daycare that we felt comfortable having our children attend & were blessed enough to find a daycare family that we will be forever grateful for!!!!

So happy to have found such a caring and compassionate caregiver for my children. My children all have thrived in this environment. NEVER have I had a bad experience with the owner. She is a fantastic mother herself and that gives me peace of mind when having to leave my child for 8 hours a day. Luke and Friends comes highly recommended in my book!!!
