    Bobby & Luke's Mother

    Pre-K Classroom

  • Everyone is extremely kind. The facility is super clean. We had a very bad experience with a past daycare and my daughter would scream and cry at drop off and pick up. Every single day, since day one, my daughter is excited to go to school and extremely happy when I pick her up. If I could get higher than 10/10 I would.

    Sophia's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • The constant communication from the directors and owners is really nice. The daily pictures and log is such an asset. I know what my child is doing and feel comfortable that she is learning and is safe. Also, the COVID precautions and safety procedures also help me know my child is safe. I love the themed days as well. I couldn’t be happier with her experience so far.

    Chloe's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • I love all the teachers! My kids have both learned so much in the short time they have been there. I do wish there was an option for lunch when the kids don’t like something (the bean dishes). I also wish they had field trips to get out of the classroom - even if it was just to the fire station! I feel safe and confident leaving my kids daily. I would recommend to everyone!
