I have used this provider for more than 6 months

From preschool care to after school care, we couldn’t have asked for a better care provider!

Playground supervision leaves something to be desired. It appears to be adult talk time.

I just now had to step out of my house to make sure a young child who had been screaming as if in pain for 5 full minutes was ok. After I spoke with the child she calmed.

Where were the adults? Sitting in the shade talking to each other.
