I called to get information about their afterschool program and the lady that answered was so short with her response and her tone was not welcoming at all. It was like I was bothering her at 8:30 am and they open at 7am

I have used this provider for more than 6 months
Amazing place! My daughter absolutely loves it here. She is only 2 but so happy when I drop her off and pick her up. They treat her like family. Thank you for doing such a great job!

I have used this provider for less than 6 months
My children started attending this center in February of this year. They are always happy to go to daycare and they are always excited to tell me how their day went. My daughter is only 2 and one day I heard her counting. She Counted to 13 and then she stopped because I said "I didn't know that you could count that high'. Lol my children are learning a lot and the teachers are fantastic. You can really tell that the teaches care about the children.
