I was informed that they will no longer offer aftercare services. They do not heat up childrens meals and do not offer a program for meals to be purchased. They are a nationally accredited, non-profit daycare that is also working with the United Way. I was very surprised by the amount of tuition (on the pricey end for me with 2 kids) and I was overwhelmed with the amount of paper on the walls. Every where I looked there was some notice, poster, picture, craft, posting on the walls and I am not sure how anyone can find anything like that. The kids seemed happy and well tended to.

It's not the sterile environment I saw in many other preschools. The kids all seem happy and content, that's a biggie. The owner, though I only met her once, was very caring, accommodating and capable. The teachers and assistants my little charge had were wonderful. Mrs R. especially. They thought the basics with love and a firm hand when needed. I particularly liked the gentle emphasis they put on respect and obedience. I also did not notice any favoritism on the part of any teachers, not an easy thing to do in this line of work. There were lots of extracurricular activities and field trips, holiday parties etc...where parent participating was encouraged, and indeed many of the parents got to know each other well. On the whole it really felt like an extended family. I wish I could have sent my kids here , 20 yrs ago, but I couldn't even get on the waiting list, they had no room! This place has been around a very long time, and always had a great reputation. I really feel it's the next best thing to home!

Their attention to detail allows our son to have social and educational interactions with his peers while also staying safe and healthy. Samantha and Ken W.
