“My Kiddos have been going here for a little over a year and honestly I could not be happier. My oldest struggles and the way that they interact with him is AMAZING I have had issues with other centers in the past and had done in home daycare for awhile because of my fears. However, Venus and Kris make it feel like family. The teachers are very hands on and the center its self is the perfect size. Its not over crowded and most the kids are pretty well behaved or can be redirected easily by the teachers. Definitely recommend this daycare they REALLY do care about the kiddos that attend their school.“

“My son has been attending Daddy Daycare for about 4 years now. We absolutely love the teachers that care for him. They take the time to understand his special needs and really go over and beyond. Since Covid-19 started, I have felt 100% comfortable sending him with the protocols and measures they have put in place. I cannot thank the staff and owner Miss Rose enough for all they have done to enrich my son. He loves going there and that makes me so grateful.”
