Three children in my family have attended this center and we could not be more pleased with Mrs. Harley. The facility was beautifully decorated with a child friendly atmosphere, the center was always neat and clean, even when the children were playing. I feel that Mrs. Harley did an excellent job balancing order, learning, cultivating creativity and providing fun times for all of the children in her care.

It is my honor and privilege to write a review for Sheila Harley and the care she provides to children. She took care of my children and now my grandson. Ms. Harley is caring, compassionate and has been graced to nurture and develop children. Her center is clean, organized, warm, welcoming and more importantly, peaceful. Children are better after being in her care!

My girls have been with Ms.Sheila for a couple of months now and I can't imagine taking them anywhere else.

After moving to the area I was amazed at the cost/waitlist/class size of many daycares in the area. I "interviewed" several places and was starting to question whether or not I was going to find a place that I felt comfortable taking my girls to everyday. As I was just about to give up my search and resign to not going back to work, I stumbled across Ms.Sheila's home development center... and havent looked back since.

Ms. Sheila was immediately warm and welcoming inviting us in to see this small, "family feel" daycare. She's always open for conversation, empathetic, real, transparent. She is always there to assist, work with the us and ultimately foster love, patience, knowledge and kindness in my girls.
I could honestly go on and on but most importantly, I dont have to question what type of care my girls are getting. I know in my absence they are being loved, nurtured, comforted and allowed to grow, learn and explore in a warm and caring environment.

This daycare facility provider has been excellent with enhancements of my children early stages in learning to the point where they were reading words at the age of 1 from her flash cards. That was impressive..overall the facility is dependable, extremely clean an location is great. I highly recommend for early childhood development.

I am so lucky to have found Ms. Sheila’s daycare. This was my daughter’s first time ever going to a daycare so of course I was nervous and apprehensive at first. Ms. Sheila was very patient with me and took her time to answer all of my questions. She treats my daughter as if she’s her own which I love. She is an exceptional communicator which I can appreciate. I’d definitely recommend Ms. Sheila’s daycare to anyone who is looking

While Ms. Harley is well spoken and nice but she can not provide non traditional services . Her center is only open from 7am to 4:30pm so if you need anything more look else where. Communication is not that great. I received a text to let me know that my baby could no longer attend her center because I was not able to pick her up at 4:30pm. I am not upset by it however do not come to this provider if you can’t pick your child up by 4.

Ms. Harley is a great care giver for our baby girl. She takes her time and gives you great advice on ways to develop your child. I really appreciate her patience with my daughter and I encourage anyone to come who's looking for someone who is caring and genuine
