Kristen Elaine · 5/5 on Google · 4 months agoMy daughter started attending Heavenly Gift Child Care at the end of August, 2022. She is my baby, so it was hard to send her to daycare but I am so happy with Heavenly Gift! She settled in quickly, I received updates and pictures daily, I know she has fun, and I know they genuinely care about her. The staff are great, so kind and caring, and we definitely recommend them!
