I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I am happy to share that our 4-year old granddaughter is under the care of Ms. Barbara. The Family Home Daycare is the epitomy of early childhood care and development. Barbara cared for our daughters years ago and is now caring for the next generation in our family. She continues to train and re-certify to stay abreast of physical care, as well as educational and nutritional development. I highly recommend her as a teacher and care provider.
