What Our Families Are Saying

Hear from parents who trust us to provide a safe, enriching experience for their children.

They have been the absolute best I could have imagined with my 2 children. You will not find a better daycare in the state.

They have been the kindest, gentlest caretakers for my children, even checking in on my son now that he's progressed to Kindergarten.

Meet Our Director, Cheryl Smith

With more than 27 years in childcare, I find it incredibly rewarding to see the positive impact on the children I work with. As a director, my focus is always on making decisions that are in the best interest of the children and promoting a healthy, growth-focused learning environment.

I’m passionate about early childhood education and its crucial role in a child’s development. My outgoing nature helps me connect with children and families from all walks of life, and I value community partnerships as a key part of the childcare experience.

I look forward to working with you and your child!
