I can't recommend Little Sunshine's enough! The peace of mind with their focus on safety, learning, play, and exploration is wonderful. Communication and updates are frequent, and projects are creative.

Miss Rachel and Miss Betty are so involved in my daughter's growth and development, and I'm comfortable dropping her off with them each morning, with their consistent care and communication. She's learned so much with them, and I'm thankful she's in an environment every day like this.

infant room caregivers are uneducated about how to feed breastfed babies. they will feed your infant whatever they want without your permission & regardless of doctors notes. they will leave your infant in a crib all day and only take out for feedings.
