My daughter went to ChildCare Plus from the time she was 16 months old. Our experience here has been fantastic. The place is neat and the teachers are loving and compassionate. At 16 months of age , all I wanted was a safe and loving environment for my child and I didn't really care about what she learns there. But I was pleasantly surprised to see her coming back home ,singing rhymes , dancing to songs and being very independent in doing some of her work.

My daughter LOVES going to daycare here. Her vocabulary has shot through the roof, she's counting all the time, comes home everyday having learned something new, and has vastly expanded her interests. The teachers here obviously care about the kid's development and love the kids so much. It is also very clean, organized, and they have great programming everyday. I feel so grateful to have found this place.

My son who will be 3 in November has been going to Child Care Plus for about a year now and I am so happy I picked this daycare. The staff are AMAZING, they treat my son like he is one of their own children. They are kind when he gets hurt and aren't afraid to give hugs which my son loves. He has learned so many new things, new songs and tries so much more foods then he does at home. Their chef cooks amazing meals from scratch, I could never get my son to eat cabbage soup at home and he asks for more when hes there. The location may seem in a busy area but the property allows all the children to
