I would not recommend this place. My recent experience with them has been none other than a nightmare, the carelessness of the staff and the lack of customer service when dealing with parents is a total disappointment.
I would not recommend this place. In the short period of time my son was there every month there was a major incident occurring like head lice, kids sharing one cup for water, reports of staff being mean to children and not being supervised. Mary is in No condition to be managing a day daycare facility much less owning. Just ask around and you will hear the horror stories. There are other options that will treat kids and parents with respect.
