Guiding Hands Childcare is a wonderful place for your child to learn and grow. The staff members are friendly, warm welcoming, passionate and show so much care to the children. Ms. Stacie the director has a wonderful heart and she's very professional. She is also very informative and quick with any request you have regarding your child. She goes out her way to make the parent feel comfortable and happy regarding the care of their child. The classroom environment is super clean and colorful. Their curriculum for the children is the best and prepares them for kindergarten. My daughter has been attending since she was 5 months old . She’s growing and learning so much from attending the daycare. I would like to give a special thank you to Ms. Katherine, Ms. Debora and Ms. Cydney. I would definitely recommend Guiding Hands Childcare to all parents.
