I’ve been a part of this daycare since my child was a baby. Now, she’s grown up, independent, and outgoing. I want to express my deepest gratitude for taking us in and becoming our community. We found the place at the perfect time when we needed it the most, especially during my transition as a single parent. I didn’t have the extra support in my life, We are forever thankful for our family center daycare.
Lovely Child Care Center truly lives up to its name. The owner and teachers are incredibly kind, patient, pleasant, and understanding, and they made us feel welcome from the very beginning. Sara went above and beyond to ensure my child had a smooth and comfortable transition, which meant a great deal to our family. The facility is spotless and completely odor-free, and my child is always well cared for. I couldn’t have asked for a better place, and I’m thrilled we applied when space was available.
My 2yr old nephew has been going to this school for about 1 year. He is always happy to attend. The daycare has childproof play areas inside and outside. The staff are always happy, friendly and welcoming with open arms each day. His teacher Ms. Sara is an angel and does amazing with my nephew and she gives reports on his day without his mom having to ask. Reasonable price! I would definitely recommend this daycare to my friends and family.
Best daycare center ever! They are so supporting and loving and take care of the kids so well. They are so diverse and take all kids in regardless of their race and love the kids as if they are their own. They also provide everything and even let you take some supplies home if needed. They really take good care of your kid! 💗💗💗
I Love this child care center for my grandson. The staff is amazing and always willing to help even outside of the center. It’s very diverse and super affordable for my daughter who is a single parent. I am very grateful and fortunate that my daughter found a safe place for my grandson, besides being in my care.
My kids have been here on and off for 2 years or so! They have been amazing and work well with my kiddos. I would and have recommended this place to other people!
They denied me from touring the location and I believe it was because I wasn't Somali

Hello. This is Lovely Child Care Center staff. We do not recognize your name and have never denied services except when we are full capacity. Lovely Child Care Center proudly serves families of all backgrounds and is committed to providing a welcoming, inclusive, and respectful environment for every child. This comment appears to be part of a recent influx of misinformation and hate messages and will be reported accordingly.
Best daycare center , wonderful nice loving staff they treat you and your children like family. My children come home telling me all new things they learned , colored , painted etc. It’s very safe I love how someone is always at the desk watching front door only can be let it by staff and door locks automatically behind you. Not just that Both my children are always happy to go back and they make phenomenal flavorful authentic home cooked meals which is top tier for a daycare center 💯👌🏽 . It’s not mandatory, yet I strongly love how they also speak to my children in English and Somali the more language our kiddos know the better 10/10 recommend childcare for your babies .
I am in love with this daycare! My son had been attending for nearly 3 years & I have no complaints ! The staff are amazing, kind , and very intelligent. I admire the frequent check ins & caring gestures regarding my child. It’s his second home due to me having to work so much and they are very supportive. I can’t express how grateful I am of there team and love towards my child. Thank you!
