30 years ago, as a parent of 2 children, I was both satisfied and pleased with the care my children received through this day-care center. My youngest started at 2 and continued through to the preschool classes. I was impressed with the level of knowledge, care and protection the daycare and staff gave to my children. And now as a grandmother watching my grandchildren go through all the stages of this daycare, I am impressed more and more. The measures the daycare has taken in safety precautions is reassuring. And I was grateful that there was no waiver in the care the children receive. In the near 30 years I've been associated with the daycare, the concern and love my children and grandchildren have received is a true blessing. more

I grew up spending my days at this daycare. I loved every minute of it. I even went to the school here when they had it. From the age of 2 till I was 9 years old I went here and then during the summers, every memory I have of this facility is warm and loving. It made such a mark on my life that I worked here when I was first married for 2 years. When I started working here I was surprised and pleased to see my teachers still here. As a teacher I can tell you the children come first. And now as a parent I can tell you that knowing the people who care for my children during the day while I am at work is worth it's weight in gold. I know most of the people who work here have been here for years. That tells me that they love children and the facility is doing something right to keep long term employees. Pros: Children's safety comes first. Cons: Haven't found one. more

I used to work for Noah's Ark Daycare before and after the sale in 2008. I mistakenly left in Sept 2008. I have since worked for 2 different daycare's and neither could compare to Noah's Ark. Hands Down! The kids are taken care of very well and the management is hands on and fully aware of what is going on in the center. I would go back to work in that daycare in a heartbeat. I also have a grandchild in this center and I am there all the time picking up. She is taken very good care of and has always been the happiest at Noah's ark. Pros: Staff is great, kids are treated well more

My daughter has attended this daycare for the last four years, She and myself are VERY happy here. The staff are very hands on with the children and very diligent in their work. Alot of the staff have been there for many years and I have never seen a big turn over. I love knowing who is going to be in my daughters room at all times. I can not beleive some of the comments on here about this day care. I have never in the four years witnessed none of these acts that are alleged on here. My daughter is always happy when dropped off and always wants to be the last to leave. I recommend this daycare to everyone. Pros: Very Clean, Staff is Knowledgeable and Friendly. more

i use to work for this day care i left on my own becasue of how the children where being taken care of. on more then one time i say children get pulled by there arms, or if they fell down to get up and stop crying ur fine. in the rooms the toys where keeped under lock and key and only goten out when the teachers wanted to get them out. other times i know that during nap time teachers would be on there cell phones not paying atenchen to if the children where sleeping or not. when it was class time and a child was not working with everyone the teacher/teachers would get in the childs face a yeal at them to do what everyone else is doing. i worked there for 3 monthes when i left this place is not a vary good place for children to be at. i would never let my child go there............. Cons: to many broken toys that the children can get hurt on more

Leaving your child with another is a scary thing sometimes. But I found that most of the workers at Noahs Ark are older and experienced, with families of their own. That alone gives me a sense of trust - that they know what they are doing. I was pleased by the security system that I had to go through to get to the daycare and when I heard all the laughter in one of the rooms used for their summer camp program, I knew the kids were actually really having fun. Pros: Maturity of employees, the caring shows, organized/fun/safe Cons: No before/after-school program more

My son attended Noah's Ark from the time he was 9 months until he was 16 months. I am not an overprotective vigilante. I observed several questionable practices here. Pros: They are organized Cons: Attendents are not attentive. Place is too big. Not secure. exposing child's lower halfs not acceptable. more
