| - At first we were reluctant to leave our fourteen-month-old child at any daycare.
I checked out Tutor Time on McClintock and was impressed by the fancy facilities, though it was by far the most expensive option at over $1,000 per month for full time daycare.
Then we tried the YMCA. Part time.
They were terrible. Our child cried every single time we took him there.
It was so bad, we cancelled our membership there and even found a different gym.
Then we checked out Sunny Days Learning Center. My wife thought the place was dark, and the facilities seemed adequate, but nothing as fancy as Tutor Time.
We ended up taking our child to Tutor Time. We had to fill out all these forms and I'd made it very clear that our child was not to have any meat. Only poultry and fish.
We told the manager. No meat.
Then we get a report back a couple weeks later and they'd fed our child a hamburger.
We were willing to forgive one mistake, but a week later, they fed him ham.
That was it. We decided to give The Sunny Days Learning Center a try.
I wish it had been the first place we'd picked.
It's like a big family there. They cared for our child like he was their very own. There was no rigid schedule of learning. A lot of love and attention.
And our child loves it. He's almost 1 1/2 now and he never cries when he goes there, and his communication skills have improved markedly since he's been attending Sunny Days.
The manager is the sweetest woman. And they're all very experienced and friendly there.
I suggest you look past the facilities and at what is the most important thing: Safety, care, love, and last, but not least, free-range non-institutionalized learning.
Finds like this one are rare nowadays.
I cannot recommend this place enough.
