My daughter went here for about two weeks before she transferred to another childcare network that was closer to home. She had a great time here and I was very happy with the center. It was very difficult to transfer because we were so happy with this location but ultimately proximity won out. The staff here are fantastic and so kind. Ms. Michelle, Ms. Kim and Ms. Renee are amazing. Thank you!

I am so Thankful for all of the staff at this childcare network center. They always cater to fit the working parents schedule. I have a very odd schedule where I work some days and some nights between the two jobs. My son has been enrolled here since December of 2023 and we both LOVE this center. This place is a hidden gem, it makes you feel very welcome. It is neat and clean and according to Lennox they serve the best meals, not to mention they actually work with the children and teach them stuff instead of just letting them play all day, there is structure to help build their minds and have them well over prepared for kindergarten. Not to mention Mrs. Michelle and Kimberly are out of this world amazing, not to often do you meet directors and supervisors with such a great and welcoming spirit.

My daughter, Bella has been coming to this facility for 2 1/2 years and she has definitely gotten the care she has needed from Mrs. Peggy and Mrs. Rene. They have treated Bella as one of there own and I am forever grateful to them for helping her evolve in the ways that only takes a village to achieve. Things that were not noticed by me were noticed my them and I was able to get her the help she needed to make her become a better toddler. As she comes up on her last couple of days at this facility before starting Kindergarten, we will never forget the AMAZING work they put in with every child to help them become better. The Directors, Mrs. Kimberly and Mrs. Michelle have been extremely helpful with any troubles I have had during Bella's time here. They suggested knowledge about things that has definitely helped Bella in her future after daycare! Without this particular staff, I am not sure if Bella would have been completely ready to start this next chapter, but because of the patience they have showed... we are so excited about what comes next. Thank you to everyone who has had a hand in helping her to this point! God Bless!

I honestly could not recommend a better daycare. I was a stay at home mom for a little over a year and when both of my girls started attending this daycare they loved it from the beginning! The staff are are caring and honestly treat your children like they own in the most amazing way possible. My oldest was struggling and the daycare is my biggest supporters and they help us get through any troubling age or struggles any of my girls have. The director is absolutely amazing and communication is absolutely AMAZING! This is the first daycare where I can say they 100% put the children first and I couldn’t be more grateful! All of the teachers are so kind and understanding ( especially on hard mornings) which as a mother means the world ! If any parent were to pick a daycare I would definitely recommend my childcare net work !

The daycare is a fantastic place! Very clean and well organized throughout the facility. The facility is well organized with separated rooms to keep the ages apart! There are amazing staff with so much heart and caring mindset. The teachers are all about every child who enter the building each and everyday. They engage with all the children to help them develop and teach them independence. The management is really committed to providing safety for all children, fun and loving environment!

I cannot say enough great things about #76!! They have taken such great care of our granddaughter for the past 5 1/2 years and even went above and beyond to make arrangements for her to be able to stay in their after school program. The teachers and staff are like family and our granddaughter loves seeing everyone everyday. I couldn’t ask for a better learning environment for our child. Thank you #76 for always putting the kids first and making it such a fun and positive place❤️

From the first day I started bringing my daughter here, we have loved it. The teachers are very interactive with the children as well as parents. Childcare network is a friendly place and teachers welcome parents and children with open arms. My daughter is learning a lot, especially with her being 15 months. She knows more than I thought she did, and each week she is leaning more and becoming more social.

If it wasn't for all the lovely ladies at childcare network I don't know where I'd be. I'm a single parent and I just recently finished nursing school and I can honestly say if it wasn't for Childcare Network I wouldn't have made it. Words can't express how grateful I am for them.
