"I’m A First Time Mom .& I’m Very Overprotective Of My Son My Son Goes To This Daycare I Had Difficulties With Infant Side When My Son Was Smaller Now That He Is 3 I Tried Again He Loves It & Ms. Dianne I Am So Grateful For & Love Her . We Both Are Beyond Grateful For & His Elwyn Support . . The Director Was Very Judgmental To My Child Because He Was Autistic . Wouldn’t Recommend At All ."

"I tried really hard to like it there. My son was enrolled there for almost 2 years. In the beginning it was fine. It has its hiccups but I attempted to adjusted . They tend to have lack of communication at times. Such as before and aftercare being open. They always having staff issues that has resulted in them cutting their hours back and not having before or aftercare available at times. But again, my family always adjusted. Where the issue came in with me, my son being on the spectrum and this facility not being equipped to handle students like him. Even with the assistance of his therapist. I got to the point if his therapist wasn’t there they were calling for my family to pick him up almost as if they didn’t want to deal with him. Regardless of his diagnosis he still has a right to have an education.. it’s really disappointing how this school has treated my son. I suggest anyone who has a child who isn’t “ picture perfect” to say away ! From this place .."

"I was nervous at first because since this is my first time doing the school stuff & my kid first time in school. The reviews helps, the tour help , & the staff put the icing on top. Great security system!! Staffs always Professional & nice. My son loves it there. Terrific educational plans. The only thing I didn’t like about the place is seats are filled quickly and I mean quickly, after putting my oldest in I tried to put my youngest in a few weeks to a month later and the spots were filled, I was devastated lol. Hopefully next school year I can put my youngest into the preschool program."

"I love this Center. My daughter attended years ago for Pre-K and was ready for kindergarten at 4-years-old. Now my 4-year-old twins have been attending for three years. I've seen changes with the curriculum, leadership and instruction. Until recently, they've had excellent staff retention, but a few top-notch teachers and the long-time Director has left. I still love the center, but some of the newer teachers could use more training and experience. The administrator is awesome and has been there for many years. When I had an issue with a teacher soon before the pandemic, the issue was resolved quickly. A few of the assistant teachers have remained. During the pandemic, I felt comfortable leaving my boys there. I love that they get outdoors several times a day and have so many engaging activities and special guests visiting bringing educational programs like STEM, music and art. One of my boys speech and social skills has improved dramatically. The Center is very organized and keeps open communication. It Isa family atmosphere. I recommend this Center as I sense the love the staff have for all of the children."

"Believe me when I Say if I'm Leaving my baby the place and the people have to qualify! Besides the fact that the place looks great The staff is wonderful!! I've never had anyone make me feel as comfortable leaving my child but MELC highly recommended"
