Also, at the pricepoint, bad photocopies with incomplete info is not an update for my kids day, they failed to modernize in any…
Brian Totilo · 3/5 on Google · a year agoThe Baby Cottage has been a godsend for our infant daughter. She was a mere 4 months old when she started, and as new parents, my husband and I were inherently concerned about her development and quality of life overall. Each day we pick her up at Baby Cottage, she has an illuminating smile. The staff is extremely professional, kind, and very much engaged with each child. Everyday we receive a detailed hand-written…
Jessica Coye · 5/5 on Google · 4 years agoFrom personal experience they treat their staff absolutely disgusting. Not only Ann and Tanya but the owner as well. If it wasn’t for their staff they would not be open. They have left teachers with more kids than allowed and are very disrespectful. All smiles until a parent does something they don’t like. Would not recommend.
YG Mar · 1/5 on Google · 4 years agoKind, attentive, and caring. The staff at The Baby Cottage truly care about my child’s development and safety. Would recommend for new and current parents.
