Best decision I made for daycare! My daughter has been going to the Blaine location since she was an infant, and she just turned 5. It has been great. The center is ALWAYS clean, the kids are always happy, and the staff is always friendly. Not one day have I been worried about leaving my daughter there, or been concerned about the care she is receiving. I am kept up to date each day on the fun activities they are doing, what they are eating, and the new things they are learning. This center is full of staff who truly want to be there and love their jobs, and it really shows. I would 1000% recommend this location to anyone looking for quality care for their children.
