Report
I reserved a spot that was confirmed to me in April for October / November or December. I was told it was a guaranteed spot and I didn't need to give a deposit yet. I received a confirmation from the owner by email. she asked me to phone in late July to find out which month would be available, when I phoned she said she never guaranteed any spot and was very rude to me, talking over me. I am livid because I stopped searching for childcare back in April since I thought I had this spot. This is being reported to the better business bureau immediately.

Our daughter has been at Newport Daycare for nearly a year (previously at their sister location) and she absolutely loves it here! They are clean, caring and very attentive to the kids and their individual personalities. We absolutely love the teachers and trust our daughter in their care. She comes home happy every day and that is important to us.

My son Harrison has been attending Newport child care since he was ten months old. He is now 15 months and my family and I feel so lucky to have our son attend this daycare! The staff are amazing. The manager Jessica is fantastic!!!!!!! My son is so happy to go to daycare and goes to them with open arms. He especially loves his infant toddler teacher sunny. The owner sally was very sweet when we met.

I have had both of my children at Newport for the past year and cannot express how thankful my husband and I are to have access to such an excellent daycare for our children. Newport has been the only experience with day cares my children have had, and of course I was nervous allowing anyone to care for my babies aside from family- this anxiety was very quickly relieved at Newport. The staff in both the infant/toddler room and the 3-5 room genuinely care for each child there, and the attachments between child and staff are tangible. The children are greeted with excitement and love each morning
