I was very conflicted about putting my infant daugher in daycare but the teachers at the center really put my mind at ease. I feel like my daugher gets a lot of attention from them and gets to interact with the other children as well. This is good since she has no siblings at home! The rates are very reasonable for the area and the facility is always clean and tidy. They are good communicators and give me a daily report on how my daughter slept or her general mood. I walked through the toddler room one day and was really impressed by how the children were listening to the teacher, too. Overall, I feel very good about trusting this facility with the care of my baby. The only downside is the long wait list ( I had a 10 month wait for full time care) but I guess that means they are good enough to be in high demand.Read more
