This school is safe and a place where my daughter has thrived intellectually. I was initially nervous to trust leaving my daughter with someone other than a family member; but this center won my trust. They have a key pad to enter the building for safety, class structured lessons geared towards developmental milestones,and a staff you can trust.

This daycare center is clean and the teachers are very nice. Your kids will be safe here and they will have a lot of fun. BUT, this daycare center is not a place where your kids will thrive in their intellectual development. I only learned this after I enrolled my child in a real pre-school program.

The director of this daycare is opinionated, confrontational, and defensive. She is also manipulative and meddlesome. In response to an unqualified diagnosis she made of our child, we had our child evaluated by doctors, therapists and psychologists. When the qualified professionals' diagnoses were not in concert with the director's views, she either ignored their recommendations or challenged these people directly. Her actions were often inappropriate. At one point she told us that we should have given her permission to advocate for our child because we, as parents, were not advocating properly. I was beyond insulted and outraged. I would never want a parent to go through what we did.
