This has to be the worst daycare I have ever experienced! I have taken my child to many daycares this has to be the worst. They are unprepared and unprofessional! I went to help my sister take her kids since this was their first time experiencing daycare. The staff members left my nieces crying! From all the daycares I have been to, the staff members are always reassuring the parent and the child on the first week, letting them know it’s going to be ok! Also welcoming the child on their first few days. No one did that here! My poor niece lost her voice from crying all day I’m sure they did nothing about it! No one was communicating with my sister. No one explained to her how to check in her child in the morning she had to ask another parent! Don’t take your kids here not a good experience for a parent or a child! Glad I decided not to enroll my children here I wouldn’t trust any of the staff members here! 0 stars if I could! I have been to several different daycares since I’ve moved around a lot. As a parent you want to feel comfortable leaving your child and feel welcomed , you won’t get that here! This has to be the worst experience I ever had at a daycare facility and I wasn’t even dropping off my kids I just went to help my sister. Even the social worker my sister was working with found it weird how Yvette the director was lying saying she had never communicated with her when they were in contact the whole time . The social worker was even recommending different daycares facilities to my sister because how they were acting and lying.

They’ve REALLY turned this place around over the past year! They got some new leadership who started focusing on the right things. They built a great team with Whitney, Patty, and Noemi–all caring educators and good communicators.

Over the last couple of years our son really connected with Ms. Whitney and Ms. Carla. Ms. Whitney bonded with him and made sure he was thriving this last year. She was the one he would seek out if he was upset, and she and Ms. Patty went above and beyond making the classroom a fun, educational space. Ms. Carla was super helpful last year when our son went through a period of separation anxiety. Carla was the one who made him feel comforted and cared for. She would sit patiently with him when he was upset and help him calm down, which eased my pain during these stressful drop-offs.

Our son was there for almost two years and, although they were in a rough place in the beginning, owners and management welcomed feedback and made changes. We are grateful for this school and this team. On to TK!

Our son has been attending as a preschooler since August 2021. When we first started we did notice that the staffing structure was not as stable as we’d like, but within a month changes were made and we have been pleased! It has been the best seeing him socialize and build friendships. We love when he comes home singing songs (especially when he learned the days of the week in Spanish) or telling us about the fun activities he did. Some of the biggest highlights for us have been that our Son can spell his name verbally and that he can not only recite the alphabet, but can recognize letters individually. The hands on gardening is also nice to see the kids partake in. We also appreciate the daily updates on food and activities. So far so good and we’re happy that our Son looks forward to going thanks to having librarian story time, police and firefighter day, garbage truck day and other fun activities that the teachers set up for the kids.
