Ms. Ruth and Ms. Taty are truly wonderful and incredibly kind when it comes to handling my toddler's tantrums. They are always so understanding, patient, and loving, which makes such a difference in his experience. My son has been enrolled in other daycares in the past, but he's never spoken about a teacher the way he talks about Ms. Taty. He absolutely lights up when he mentions her, and it's clear that she has a special connection with him. Their caring nature and the positive environment they create truly stand out, and I am so grateful for everything they do for my son.🤍

My daughter Jaslyn (5) has attended CP for 2 years and we both love it. The staff there is always so helpful and friendly. Jaslyn says she's popular because the all staff and children love her and she loves them back. Ms. Lee and Ms. Ruth are her "homies". 🤣And her new teachers are so sweet.They are so patient and work with the kids at their level and pace to make learning fun. She gets excited about all the activities they set up for the kiddos! I hate this has to be her last year, but CP has definitely left it's mark in our hearts.
