My daughter has been here for a year and we love it! All of the teachers are so wonderful. It has been a crazy Minnesota winter so far, and I’ve noticed our daycare has stayed open when other daycares have closed, which as a working parent is so incredibly helpful. I would recommend this daycare for your little ones!
