We were a little apprehensive/anxious due to a bad experience with our previous provider, but after seeing the interaction between the provider and our son during the initial visit- we knew it was the right place for him. We have yet to be disappointed ever since.
This provider has a sincere love for children and it shows with her interaction- both with my son and other children. Outside time is super important to me since it helps regulate their daily rhythms and spending all day inside can get boring, not to mention kids need to play!. This provider makes an honest effort to get the kids outside every day, sometimes twice a day.
My son is growing new skills everyday- It is very endearing to me when she recaps the day and talks about how proud she is of him and his new accomplishments!
This provider has always been open to our requests and is flexible with timing of arrival/departure, feeding changes, etc.
I am comforted everyday at drop-off knowing that my son is being cared for and loved- not just attend to (diaper changes, feedings, etc.) He is a much happier baby after being with this provider and that means everything to me!
