Both owners are kind, professional women who provide quality care for children. They provide opportunities for children to learn hands on and enjoy feeling comfortable and secure while away from their parents. Food is selected in a healthy way, for quality and quantity. Children are treated fair and equally. While some children may experience need of changing more frequently it is always completed right away, for the children to be safe and clean.
I've known these ladies for several years and have nothing but respect for them!

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

I wouldn’t even give a star if that was an option.
My daughter attended this place for a couple months. (She is currently 6 months old.)
They refused to feed her baby food, even though she ate a lot at home.
They sent her home almost every day in clothes other than what I sent for her.
They lost all of her socks.
They said that she had continuous blowouts from bm’s, while she never had them at home or at any other time.
They sent her clothes home caked in poop. And therefore, ruined.
My daughter acted differently and stopped sleeping throughout the night & was very fussy.
She was just very out of character.
Now, she’s at a new daycare & is sitting solid foods and sleeping through the night. She’s a very happy baby all around now!!
Rhodes to Wiser is a sad excuse for a day care. They do not care about your children. I’m not sure why anyone takes their child there or why they’re still open. I would go out of my way to tell ppl to NOT take their child there.
