Turning over your little one to complete strangers is a task within itself! After praying for a facility that would love, teach, and nurture my son, it is safe to say I’ve found one. The entire staff walks in their ministry as professional instructors.

When my son was about 4 months, he went here. He loved it here! The owners are amazing and they accommodate the best way possible because i was breastfeeding him at the time. I’m thankful for that experience because it taught him a lot. 🤗

Took my son here for years. Absolutely great people and great care. My son always looked forward to going, formed so many friendships and though he has not been in a long time, he still asks to see his Auntie and GiGi there. Pricing is reasonable and i most definitely recommend!

RJ’s Birds Nest maintains a clean environment and remains supportive of all enrolled families. Excellence is a common practice for this organization. I am always impressed, especially with the wholesome experience the founder has with conflict resolution.

Top 2, not 2! Not only is this center intentional about the development of each child, they are also intentional about cultivating a healthy atmosphere for them to thrive in. Top tier.

The facility looks amazing, smells great, and the staff are always so friendly. When you walk in you can tell the children are valued. By far this is the best facility when it comes to childcare.”
From the moment we walked through the door, we felt welcomed, supported, and understood. Our child absolutely thrives here. The curriculum is thoughtful and engaging, it's the perfect balance between play and structured learning.
From arts and crafts to story time, music, and outdoor play, every activity is purposeful and tailored to each developmental stage. We've seen huge growth in our child's social skills, vocabulary, and confidence. Every space feels intentional from the cozy reading corners to the cheerful art stations. And safety is clearly a top priority, which is incredibly reassuring.
To the entire team at R.J.s Birds Nest thank you for creating such a warm, loving, and inspiring environment. You’ve become an extension of our family, and we are so grateful for the positive impact you’ve had on our child’s life.
If you’re looking for a daycare where your child will be safe, loved, and given every opportunity to grow, look no further. R.J.s Birds Nest is the best of the best.

I would highly recommend RJs Bird’s Nest to anyone looking for a daycare facility with structure, formative education, and a caring staff. My child attended RJs Bird’s Nest from 4 months until school age, and still asks to go back and see her friends and teachers!

Wonderful people and great establishment.
My Grandchildren have attended RJ's bird nest for the last 3yrs . You know it's a great place when children don't want to leave at the end of the day.
