We started our three year old here about a year ago and could not be happier. The staff is attentive and kind to the kids and they always have fun activities planned for the kids. Sandy the Director is great, and the teaching staff are easy to talk to and communicate well about how your child is progressing. I NEVER worry my child is not being well cared.
