My son has been here for a little over two months, and wow what a difference compared to his last daycare. He leaves every day with a big smile and even says goodbye to his friends and teachers. At his previous daycare, he was always eager to run out the door, but here I sometimes have to pull him away to leave. I know kids can be wild, but thankfully there are no more rashes, bite marks, scratches, or bruises coming home from daycare. There are about 3 to 4 teachers in his classroom, which really shows in the level of care and attention the kids receive. I love the activity schedule and the variety of snacks and meals that are provided throughout the day. I also really appreciate the security feature at the front door. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he is safe and in great hands. My son looks at his teachers with so much love, especially Ms. Mia. Thank you all so much for truly caring for my son!

I absolutely LOVE For Children Only!!!!! The staff is always so nice and helpful. My daughter enjoys the different activities that are scheduled for them daily and during the summer the weekly field trips are just the icing on the cake. For children only definitely gives a safe and home like environment for not the children but also the parents. We could not have asked for a better daycare for my child!!!!!

I’m not currently a parent enrolled here, but I l’ve had many conversations with the leadership behind this center and genuinely impressed and excited about the possibilities. What I find most exciting is that the owner and director don’t talk about “childcare” as a business. They talk about it as a foundation for the way a child sees themselves and the world. The conversations are centered around the child’s growth, belonging, and creating a space where our children feel confident and safe. What also stands out most is how intentional they’ve been. Nothing is done just to “check a box.” They really consider the emotional and developmental needs of the kids and the families they serve. I cannot wait to make my move and be part of this family.

My kids have been here since they were infants, and I couldn't speak more highly of the staff and facilities that have created a great community. They constantly have new equipment and listen to feedback that parents and staff give. The management is involved and its so much easier to interact with them and see they care as opposed to a big chain center where you are just a number. Cannot recommend them enough.
