I do not recommend this daycare. The infants were not interacting with each other or the teachers and it seemed that they were not being stimulated as much as they should. In addition, when we attempted to get our deposit back, we were met with resistence uncharacteristic of childcare givers.

I don't typically like to write good reviews for places that I prefer to keep incognito, like our daycare or our pediatrician, or my hair dresser as I prefer that these places not get busy, but I am making an exception. There were several reasons, why I originally chose this daycare:

1. 1:3 in the infant room and low ratios for the older children (this low ratio is unheard of for the majority of the other daycares I toured),
2. webcam (also unheard of for the other daycares I toured), and
3. location (near work so nice).
4. Allow you to come and go as you please. I often went during lunch to feed our baby and I could not believe that other daycares would only allow you to come during pickup and dropoff times.

Our child has been with the daycare for several years now and things have gone along pretty smoothly. I keep the webcam up and running in the corner of my computer at all times so I know exactly what is going on most of the day. When issues do arise (and trust me they do anywhere, but I know about them due to the webcam), I have no problem discussing it with the director and I have found her to be nothing but accommodating which really puts my concerns at ease. Granted, most of the issues that have come up are minor (i.e. pacifier being used outside of naptime) but they are important to me and director has always addressed it and made sure it was corrected within a day.

The teachers are loving and nurturing, which is nice. They often try to get us involved in their daily activities and take the time to tell me how my child did during the day so I don't feel like I missed out on anything.

Overall, I have been very pleased with the daycare and my child's development. My child loves all the caregivers and all the other kids and often talks about them outside of school. I am dreading the day that I have to take my child out of this great environment and into a public or private school as I feel I am so involved now in the day to day activities (with the webcam and daily updates), and once my child is in big kid school, I feel I will not be so involved.

My child was at this facility for 3 years. I have had all positive experiences. The staff is very nurturing, friendly, and compassionate. I hate that we has to leave because we were moving out of state. I watched my child grow and blossom!

Friendly, inviting, and professional. This child care facility is of the highest quality. Very accomodating to parents needs (i.e. special diet concerns, breast feeding, etc.) Plus the security is very comforting (webcam for parents, key card entry). Everything in the school has a child focus. I would best describe the atmosphere as, friendly and professional. It's a place parents feel happy to leave their child.

We have given this place numerous chances because we could not get into the other daycares in the area and then eventually did not want to transition our kids. However, we've just about had it at this point, and want to make sure other parents dont make the mistake. Yes, there are some pros. Some, and I stress, some of the teachers are really good. But some of those good teachers left, and also, some were initially assigned to one room and then moved without any notice. It speaks to their disorganization. Other teachers were more like caretakers, who would feed and change the babies. But overall, after many issues with organization, payment (being over billed numerous times), poor communication between teachers and parents and director we decided to move our 2 kids from here. In the end, we realized that as a relatively new place run seemingly by one disorganized director who does not have the education necessary to run a childcare facility, we were not willing to stay. Whenever we had issues we'd try to talk to the teacher or director, and were always given a great answer. But then there was no follow through. Their documentation of the children's daily activities (feedings, changing, napping) was very sporadic, so we never really knew what happened there during the day. Yes there is a webcam, but its not that great. You only know where your baby is and don't know for sure if the baby is sleeping or not since the resolution is not great. There were times our older child stayed in a classroom with much younger children because the facility (and director) did not anticipate the transitions for all of the kids. They still are figuring out the process of transitioning kids from one room to another. It was sad really since our kids got attached and liked their friends. Other reviewers said that the bad reviews were from uptight parents, but I know many parents in my older kids class aren't happy but just don't want to move their kids either. Its a place with alot of problems. If you don't believe the negative reviews, think about it this way -- other daycares in the area have long waiting lists, but here there is none, and the rooms all are not filled to capacity. In fact, the infant room only has 5-6 infants and accomodates 12. That should say something. The last thing I'll say is that after we'd decided to leave, the director (not the teachers though) became increasingly rude and unprofessional. It got so bad that during our last phone conversation about a minor fee, she hung up on me. Please heed the advice of so many negative reviews of parents who have removed their kids from here.
