With my husband and I being first time parents and both working in law enforcement we were very particular about where we wanted to send our daughter. We wanted somewhere safe, attentive, educational, and engaging for our baby girl. We toured many daycares(in home & centers) but when we came across Smith Family Daycare, we looked no further! This daycare was everything we wanted and more. The owner is AMAZING and sweet as can be. She makes sure she openly communicates everything with you and keeps you informed. It’s obvious she is EXPERIENCED and has a passion for what she does and you can see that in the way she loves the kids and the way the kids love her! Our daughter loves her like a 2nd mom! Smith family Daycare is big on education and teaching. She wants the little ones to be fully prepared when it’s time for them to start elementary school. Our daughter attended between the ages of 1 to 5. It was heart breaking for her to leave the place where she had been almost everyday for the last 5 years but I can say that our daughter left fully prepared for school. Our daughter recently started Kindergarten and is reading on a 2nd grade level. This is due to the time and dedication this daycare has invested in teaching! We now have 2 year old twin girls that attend. They can definitely be challenging at times. Smith family daycare is amazing with them. She is firm and provides structure, but is so loving and nurturing at the same time. Even in the short time they have been there, our twins language and social skills have improved drastically. If you are looking for a safe, fun, nurturing, educational space to send your child, do not look any further. Smith Family Daycare is definitely the place you want to send your child to!

My family had the most amazing experience here. I was beyond Grateful to have stumbled upon this daycare. The smith family daycare was a true blessing to our family! Just to start off this isn’t a normal daycare. The owner will treat your child like family not just a customer. The amount of work she puts into everything for the children is out of this world. You couldn’t ask for a more caring, loving person. She really treats the kids like her own. She does everything to make a safe space for fun and learning for each child. Once my son was school age we were sad to leave , it was like moving away from family. If you are lucky enough to catch an opening you will not regret joining this small community. They have a very lovely & clean daycare. Everyday when I dropped my kids off I knew they were in a safe space and Communication was always open. We loved this daycare so much. It was a refreshing change form the large daycares where you were just a number . The amount of heart that goes into this daycare is like no other !

My little one has been coming here for about 4 years or so. Putting my child here has been the best thing I've ever done. My daughter absolutely loves it here. The owner treats the kiddos as if they were her own. So sweet and kind hearted. Very clean and professional.

My kids have gone to this daycare for 4.5 years and I absolutely love it. She treats my babies as though they are her own. I had previous accounts with a few other childcare facilities and no other daycare could ever amount to this one. It is clean, organized, she is very professional and my children love her. I highly recommend this daycare to anyone with small and school age children. My son started here before he was 3 and she had him way ahead of all the other children at school when he started kindergarten. She spends quality time with all of her kids.
