I can’t say enough good things about Karel! She is wonderful with my girls. She’s caring, attentive, affectionate and loves them like her own. My girls are excited when they get to daycare giving her big hugs every morning. She provides early learning/age appropriate activities. Our middle daughters speech has sky rocketed since being with Karel. There truly isn’t a bad thing to say about Karel, we love her !
I love Karels Daycare. She is beyond caring, attentive & always makes sure to keep me updated with anything regarding my child. She does alot of activities with the kids and does a great job entertaining all their little personalities. The kids love her, I love her! She is safe, clean & all the kids have her undivided attention. Highly recommended !
This is the second provider that my son has used for daycare and his experience has been wonderful. My son is excited to go to daycare every day, has grown so much, and has not had a bad day yet. Karel is friendly, caring, and keeps in contact regarding how my son is doing and the different goals they are working on. She provides a variety of activities, resources, and learning objectives for the kids. I am extremely happy with the care she provides and plan to keep my son in her care until he is school aged.
She is a great child care provider, she makes my kids feel like family.
I can not say enough good things about the care my son receives with Karel. She goes above and beyond, caring for these kiddos as if they were her own. You can tell she just loves what she does. Not only do I have confidence my son is safe, well loved and having fun but also learning, daily. Karel provides age appropriate early childhood learning activities and lessons, along with lots of outside time. She is the best and we feel so lucky to have found her!
Mrs. Karel is the best daycare provider there is. My son gets so excited to see her, she is very patient and kind. She is very organized and my son loves learning new things and playing with his friends. She is a great teacher, I would highly recommend this home daycare to anyone. I can’t say enough good things about her and her home daycare. We just Love her and are so glad we came across to find her.
We found Mrs.Karel as our daycare unexpectedly shut down- to say I was nervous for a new change in child care is an understatement. I could not speak more highly of her. Mrs.Karel is incredibly involved with the different needs for my son as there have been speech and feeding delays. He has made great progress in his speech as well as social skills and I strongly believe this is due to her. Highly recommend!
