4.9 out of 5 stars
For a parent that has never had a child enrolled in childcare, and having a child who was struggling emotionally and socially, I am overjoyed that I was able to find a place where she was welcomed with open and caring hearts, minds and arms. It’s made the transition so easy and she has blossomed in a way I never imagined, and I attribute that to the amazing staff at the school. Thank you so much!

From the tour I knew Ms Joy had a true heart for children. That was evident in the first ten minutes of our conversation. To be honest her candor and honesty were refreshing. When we walked through the center, I was shocked at how big it was as from the parking lot it definitely is misleading. I was shown the entire building, I even asked to see the kitchen. I was very impressed with what I saw, teachers

were smiling and singing, kids were laughing and playing and Ms Joy took the time to discuss the curriculum. I am thrilled to have my daughter at this facility and I highly recommend it!

This school has been amazing since my kids started going. My oldest started at 8 months and my youngest at 4 months,any time i had an issue with a teacher or concerns Joy always handled it promptly and efficiently. I feel safe with my kids being there and im not constantly worried about if they're okay, their focus is always on keeping the kids safe and providing a good enviornment. Kelsey Dawn and
