Parent Reviews
We've had our son at Sunshine House for about 3 months and have had a great experience! He loves his teachers, Miss Dyamon and Miss Breonna, and is always excited to get to daycare. Kendrick and Sigourney in the front office are also very friendly and responsive.
They have been amazing with my son. I was a bit nervous at first but they definitely made me and him feel comfortable. My son is autistic and has behaviors with some days being difficult for him I appreciate how they handle him and allow him to work through his emotions. I'm very picky and I have no complaints. He especially loves Mr.Kendrick.
The love is definitely here at this location; it is definitely true that you lead by example. Sigourney Zacharski and Kendrick Hampton team is amazing. We all know how hard it is to let your 2 year old go off to school, Maliyah Johnson and staff makes it easy each morning. The cleanness at this location is top notch. I love the all day updates about my daughter. Long story short The Sunshine House on Broad River makes my work day go smoothly.
I love everything about Sunshine House. They love the kids, they teach them a lot & they communicate with you every step of the way. 10/10!
Great childcare center and I love the environment. The staff there are great & really care for the children. Everyday my children are excited to come to daycare and that makes me feel good. The assistant Director Mr. Kendrick is awesome!! All around, this is a great childcare center.
The staff are amazing; they made my daughter feel comfortable and safe. I love the keypad to check in and out, and the online portal that allows me to see my child's daily activities, pictures and make payments online.
via SunshineHouse.comI am so blessed I found this daycare! Everyone here is so amazing and care so much about the children. Within a week my kids became excited to go here and they love it here so much! Both of my kids learn so much and it's great knowing that they're in amazing hands while I am working.
