I have used this provider for more than 6 months
All of my children have gone to this daycare since they were 6 weeks old. My children are now 7, 5, 2. It may look outdated and not excellent..but the staff make up for it! I would never change daycares or even have a complaint. The daycare is mainly made up of African American children..but my children fit right in...it taught then to respect all regardless of race. This daycare is one of the best...they work with you! ( I once in high school had an issue where my DC was closed but the high school was not...instead of billing me $20 an hr after close..a worker who I trusted took her home...she was happy and well fed). I don't know any other dc that would do that.
