Kristin says "My two children went to Little Dragonfly's for several years and they loved every minute of it. They still talk about going back to visit Melissa. Melissa is one of a kind. She is the most patient person I know and so knowledgeable about child development. I learned so much from her. She's flexible, creative and most of all- loving.
