I have used this provider for less than 6 months

My daughter does so great at this childcare. While she’s only been there for 3 months she has learned so much from Akeshia and the other daycare students. While my little one is not one to go to strangers easily, she’s always happy to see Mrs. Akeshia in the mornings & never wanna leave when it’s time to go. She is. Greatly appreciated & i always recommend her childcare when someone is looking for daycare. She gets 5 stars from me.

Loving Arms Christian Childcare is just that, loving. Akeisha is honestly one of the kindest most sincere people in this world. She's a great teacher, and really cares for all of her kids. My 3 year old daughter has learned so much since being there, and my almost 2 year old son is not far behind her. The passion Akeisha has for helping our babies learn and putting their well being first is so heart warming. I was honestly "iffy" about the in home childcare before they started going to Loving Arms, but once I met Akeisha all of my worries were gone. I rate Loving Arms Christian Childcare a 5 out of 5 because that is what they deserve!
