What parents say

We feel incredibly lucky to be part of the Bunny Village family! Our son absolutely loves it - he’s always coming home happy, full of stories, and excited to go back. It’s clear he’s not only having fun, but also learning, making friends, and being genuinely cared for by an amazing team. As a mom currently on maternity leave with our newborn, it gives me so much peace of mind knowing our son is in such a safe,…

Samantha Ciriello · 5/5 on Google · a year ago

We couldn’t be happier with this daycare! The staff is warm, caring, and truly goes above and beyond to make every child feel safe and loved. Our child has grown so much - socially, emotionally, and academically - since starting here. The communication is excellent, and we feel completely at ease knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly recommend!

My daughter was bitten multiple times by another child, and one of those incidents was intentionally not reported to me. A staff member later admitted she kept it quiet because she was afraid of getting in trouble. Even after giving them a chance to improve, the biting continued. When I expressed that I was looking at other daycare…

Jeannie Ceballos · 1/5 on Google · a year ago

Giving a chance it wouldn’t happen again, but it never ended. My mom suggested she would start looking for another daycare, due to my sister’s safety. Instead, they suggested that we “part ways.” Not only was she pushed out…
