Genuinely kind, consistent presentation and everyone always has a smile it is obvious they enjoy their job. No one is ever seemingly frustrated or upset about anything, just everyone working together to keep a room full of kids happy and healthy.

I had the pleasure of visiting Childcare Network in Morehead City and I cannot say enough great things about this incredible facility. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism by Cherelle, the director. Her welcoming energy immediately set the tone for an amazing experience. It’s evident that she is deeply invested in creating a nurturing and high-quality environment for both children and families. During my visit, I observed Mrs. Brenda and Kyndell’s class, and I was absolutely blown away by the level of engagement and care provided. The children were not only participating in meaningful activities but were also genuinely excited to be there. The classroom was a perfect example of structure and creativity, with every detail thoughtfully arranged to support learning and exploration. The organization and cleanliness of the space were impeccable, creating a calm and focused atmosphere for the children to thrive. The teachers were attentive, patient, and skillfully managed transitions while creating an inclusive and positive environment. It’s clear that both Mrs. Brenda and Kyndell are passionate about what they do, and their dedication shines through in every interaction with the children. Cherelle’s leadership is truly remarkable. Her engagement with both staff and families reflects her commitment to excellence. She has cultivated an environment where both children and educators feel supported, valued, and empowered. Childcare Network in Morehead City is a shining example of what childcare should be—safe, enriching, and truly focused on the well-being of every child. I highly recommend this center to anyone looking for a place where children can grow, learn, and thrive under the care of a phenomenal team. Thank you for setting such a high standard!

My son was at this center for 5 years. We brought him when he was 7 weeks old and he stayed until he went to kindergarten. He consistently received the best care from all of his teachers. Everyone was always kind and I always felt like they were a second family to us. I wish I could leave a 1000 star review, because these ladies are they best. My child spent 5 years being loved and cared for by them. We loved it so much, we had him spend spring break at the spring break camp during his kindergarten year. They are also so clean! There was always someone wiping down, vacuuming, etc - very clean facility! You could not ask for better staff - we LOVE Childcare Network and are so glad we chose them to care for our kiddo.

My two girls have going there for 3 years and I absolutely love it. They keep me well informed of everything that is going on everyday. The director and all of the teachers go above and beyond taking care of the children and doing activities with them. At first I was so nervous bringing my very small baby to daycare but now she is three potty trained and doing absolutely terrific. My oldest attends the daycare right after school they pick her up from school and stays there till I pick her up. She even goes there on days school is closed can I have to work and they do fun and educational activities. Love it and would recommend it to any parent.
