I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Ms. Smith is just AMAZING with the children! My two year old has flourished in all ways over the past couple of months. Not only is she a childcare provider, but was also a head start teacher for several years, and you can tell. My child's vocabulary is amazing, social skills better, and has made friends like crazy! Ms. Smith does not give the children junk, either. They eat healthy meals and snacks, which I love. She will respect any/all special dietary needs, even providing the special items for your child. I have been paying attention and the children even get full, Saturday/Sunday morning type of breakfasts! Some children have anxiety leaving their parents in the morning, but not with Ms. Smith. They love her and I see why. If you are looking for childcare, Ms. Smith will take great care of your little ones!

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

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

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

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.
