I adore this school and its staff! My son was at a different Child Care center in the area but not happy. His attitude, excitement and joy for learning has escalated since he enrolled here. He loves the natural playground, the "castle" in his room and all the stations he gets to play/learn in. The hands on learning activities really keep him engaged and the teachers are great at keeping us informed with how he did each day.
