I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My daughter, husband, and I love Miss Beth! She is a capable, calm, thoughtful caregiver who strives to provide a fun and safe learning environment for the children in her care. She is able to attend to children with diverse needs, ages, and personalities. I especially appreciate all of the advice she has given me, a first-time parent, this year; in addition, I appreciate that she goes out of her way to create special events and celebrations for the kids to enjoy, and they are OVER THE TOP! :-) Most importantly, though, when my little girl is with Beth, I know she is safe and loved. She even cries sometimes when it's time to go home! I highly recommend Beth as a caregiver for any child.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My daughter has been going to Beth since she was 3 months old and she will be 5 in June. She has learned so much in Beth’s care. Beth Jones is an incredible caretaker, and truly loves and teaches the children so much. My second daughter will be going to her in a week and I couldn’t be more comfortable or confident sending her there. More than a caretaker, we think of Beth as family. We were truly blessed to have found her.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I went to this daycare for 12 years. I can personally say it was the best experience. I grew up in Beth’s care, from only a couple weeks old to school age. I loved going there everyday and the connection I made with not only Beth but also the kids I went there with will last a lifetime. I’ve been out of the daycare for 8 years and still continue to visit and keep in contact. I would highly recommend Beths Family Daycare. The above comment talks about Beth being family and that’s exactly how I see her.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Both of my children attended Beth Jones Daycare and I had 100% trust in her taking care of them when they were little. Today, my children are 26 & 20 and they often go to visit Beth. This is a testament of the love and care she provided to my kids and they consider her as family.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I cannot speak highly enough about Miss Beth and her family day care. She has taken care of my little man since he was 5 months old. He's now going on 3! Beth has a huge heart and opens up her home, taking care of the kiddos, like they are her own. She is more than my child's caregiver, she is family. The above review broke my heart and could not be further from the truth about Beth, her day care and her family. If you want your child in a loving, caring, clean, educational, and fun environment, contact Beth.
