Parent Reviews
Lisa and her daycare have been an absolute BLESSING to our family. Both of our daughters attend ‘A Time to Play Daycare’ and we could not recommend it more highly. Lisa pours her whole heart into these kids. She prepares nutritious meals from scratch, plans weekly themes with corresponding stories and art projects, takes the kids outside year round, and teaches children to be kind and considerate humans. On top of all this, she teaches the kids at her daycare all of the academic skills they need to be prepared for kindergarten. You could not ask for a better daycare provider.
I have 6 children and all of them have gone to Play Childcare. We have been with Play Childcare for almost 8 years. Lisa has had 3 of our children from 4 months on. She does a preschool program during the day and my husband and I have been so impressed by how much our kids have learned from her! My two year old knows all of his letters and numbers, colors and shapes, and several songs. There is little to no screen time daily. They cook, do art projects, have theme weeks, story time, go outside and she only serves fully organic foods. We feel so blessed to have found such a wonderful provider!! 5 stars truly isn’t enough!
We hit the absolute childcare jackpot with Lisa! She is kind, caring, thoughtful, creative, accommodating, and loves on our children so well. Childcare is her passion, and it is evident in all that she does. She plans incredibly thoughtful lessons that incorporate a weekly theme. She cooks healthy, well balanced, and delicious meals. Kids go outside to play every day, and she understands how to engage them through learning and imaginative play. She is attentive to individual needs, flexible, and considerate with her schedule. We are incredibly blessed to have Lisa in our life, and feel so lucky to have landed a spot in A Time to Play childcare. Any child (and parent) would be so fortunate to be in her care.
Lisa has been a great provider! She keeps the kids engaged and active. She's a great communicator and listener. I can't recommend her enough!
