I have two children here and I must say it's a wonderful place to be. My children love it and my 2 year old learns a lot. They are not just a babysitting service, they actually teach the children because at 2 years old my daughter recognizes 8 colors, 7 shapes, body parts, and she sings every song she learns at home. I also will say the relationship isn't limited to only the children but they have a relationship with the parents so it feels like a village/community. They work with their families. They have good communication and an amazing and friendly staff. They have a schedule that provides structure. They take trips in the summer and invite the parents. They even had a graduation once. It's hard to trust others with your children but I trust them!

My child has been going here for over 1 year now and I must say I am a happy parent! Leaving your child with someone is never easy but at Essential Elements they help ease that concern with love and attention they show each child.
