I wish I could give a higher rating. My children and I both love this daycare center! They had never been to daycare and the transition was made to be so easy which is rare for my two young children who are very sheltered and spoiled lol. The staff are all loving and welcoming to both parents and children. They are the best place to send your kids if you want them have fun all while being nurtured, motivated, thoroughly educated! My babies were challenged, given confidence and most importantly taught! They went from not even being able to recite their ABC's to knowing them in both lower and upper case and in any sequence, as well numbers and shapes and that was only the start! She gave them the knowledge but also the confidence to try and to believe they could! My kids went from shy babies to scholars who run to daycare and give out hugs and yell out things they have learned! I couldn't have found a better daycare!
