Best daycare ever!!! The director Ms. Danielle has about 20 years running the place. Our oldest daughter went here from 3 yrs old to the before and after care for Kindergarten so roughly 4 years before grandparents decided to now do pick up. My youngest now has 4 months here and has adjusted amazingly! Firstly she came from a home daycare with 6 kids to this setting and has integrated really well. We love the fact they use the app to update you, do reminders, note medication and send pictures. The classroom are neat and clean and the cubicles have labels and pictures for each child. Our daughter adores her teachers and always comes home happy telling or showing us what she did that day. Hours like priorly noted are 630-630 except major holidays which is understandable. Love the fact they use a 2 code system to get into the building. One is for the front desk area and the second to get into the building itself. Playgrounds are neat and up to standard, no old equipment which shows they care about safety. They offer 3 days, part and full time care depending on availability. You have nothing to lose by checking them out and trying a free 1 day pass (if still offered) to see how you like it. Thank you everyone for loving K & P like you do!!!

Do not send your children here! My 8 year old’s were there for 3 weeks and had the worst experience! Teachers yell at the children in the classroom, they do not enforced the mask wearing policy, my children were denied the ability to call me and they were horrible with providing any type of updates on what was occurring in the classroom. No reports and the video feed was taken down for an entire afternoon??? Why??? During spring break they watched 4 movies and did not have any fun activities planned for the kids in the classroom. The staff in the school age room needs to be removed and retrained on how to properly work with children. They do not keep a safe, clean or caring environment. Please look somewhere else for daycare and do not send your children here.

Worst place ever!!! I took my 3 month old there for a trial date and me and his mother were watching through the app the whole time, for a period of time he was crying while the so called teachers were ignoring him and sitting on a chair next to the crib they put him in, when we called they straight up lied to us and said he was sleeping and another staff member said he was playing, fast forward we rush to get there and when they brought our son to us after they obviously wiped the tears of his face and he was breathing heavy catching his breath.
IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CHILDREN DONT BRING THEM HERE!
