Pros: Experienced, has ample play space for children (including her entire backyard converted into a playground), prices are good, nice blend of structured and unstructured time, overall loving environment. When Leela is in a good mood, it's a pleasant experience for everybody. Cons: Leela has little to no system for dealing with toddlers acting out like toddlers sometimes do. Instead of working together with parents to develop a strategy, Leela is prone to just shouting at the parents instead, or booting their child from daycare altogether. She is also an antivaxxer, and threw a tantrum AT ME PERSONALLY because my wife and I vaccinate our child. The only thing that kept me from firing her on the spot was that, due to family health issues, making such a change without lead time to transition to a new provider would have been unfeasible. If your child is younger than "terrible twos" and you are comfortable working with an antivaxxer, it's a fine establishment. If your child could possibly act out or throw a tantrum, or if she gets wind that you have vaccinated your child, consider this fair warning that in exchange for the good prices, you will likely be shouted at at some point, and your child may get booted from the enrollment. read more

I am very very picky about who I leave my baby with ( he is my first). A Caring Place is a blessing. I drive out of my way to take my Child there. Nothing but excellence. Leela is a wonderful individual who was been running this business for 20 years. Her system is great, the children enjoy their time and I don't have a worry in the world when he is there. read more

Our 2 year old worships Leela! She is engaging and you can tell the kids are completely comfortable with her. We've picked up our son at various times of day due to appointments or emergencies, and he's always been happy and well-cared for when we arrive. read more
