Other reviewers have said it all--we love this place and both Rebeca and Yeybi for providing such a welcoming and playful space! Our daughter has been going to El Refugio for two years. She has always been happy to go in the morning and comes home well fed, rested, and with new dance moves or art projects. Highly recommend! They have openings!
