I have used this provider for less than 6 months

My kid went to school here and there was a child abuse and suspected child molestation going on, my kid said she was touched. Don't bring your kids here. This was her first preschool, and it was a single parents worst nightmare of a preschool.

I gave this facility a four deserving of a 5 but nothing's perfect I have toured the facilities wonderful Learning Center the children were interacting and appear to be having a great time learning I saw a lot of Hands-On activities going on and play time which no Learning Center with that age group should be without because one way small children learn is through play I am a retired individual and if I where to select any particular day care in Elizabeth City North Carolina ALC Albemarle Learning Center would be on my list
