We have loved EFC - the center is smaller than others we initially looked at, which has been a great fit for our family! The staff is super engaged and caring (all of the teachers know all of the students, not just those in their classroom), and communication is available in so many formats - daily updates (including pictures) in a free app, plus conferences usually in the fall, monthly newsletters via email, and…

Daycare center is not good with kids with special needs. They are not patient with them and do not work with them. Classes too big with too wide of age group. Be careful sending any kids with special needs. Over priced! Kathy is unprofessional and will hide and avoid you if something isn't right!
