"Our son Ryder started Pattycake when he was 22 months old in the Toddler room. This is our first experience with a child care center and needless to say we were very nervous. Ryder had only been cared for by grandparents and a close family friend. It took about a month of adjustment, and since then he loves Pattycake. His teachers, Miss Michelle and Miss Kim, genuinely care about Ryder and his well-being. I know when we drop Ryder off in the morning, that he will have a fun day with his friends and be very well cared for. Without questions, Pattycake is the best child care center in the area. Donna and Michelle have really thought about what it takes to offer high quality care and education. The actual facility is super clean and very well thought out. The playground outside is separated by age group which was a key selling point for us. We feel very secure with leaving Ryder in the hands of caring professionals with no worries at all."

"It was a difficult decision to work after having my first son.  However, it did not take long for me to feel like the teachers and staff at PattyCake embraced him and helped him learn, thrive, and grow in ways I could only hope for.  Now, both of my boys are at PattyCake and it has become like a second home to them.  I am continually impressed by the warm and nurturing environment each class has offered to my boys.  My boys are very different, and yet each classroom teacher has taken the time to get to know and appreciate their differences; teaching to their very different learning and personality styles.  I am also impressed by the training and emphasis on learning that they encourage in their staff members.  Every time I turn around, they are offering more programs, equipment, or completely changing the classroom around to make it an even more stimulating environment for the children.  We love PattyCake!"

"We have two children in PattyCake, ages eight and three.  Our eight year old has been at PattyCake since she was eight months old and our three year old has been there since he was four and a half months old.  We wouldn't dream of having our children go to any other daycare center/ after school program.  We can't say enough about the quality of care they receive on a daily basis.  The passion that Donna and Michelle have for children and making PattyCake a great place is obvious.  They are offering constant training/ programs for their staff and parents, as well as educational and fun activities for the children each and every day.  When we drop our children off in the morning, we know that they are receiving the best care that they can in a loving and nurturing environment.  Michelle, Donna, and the rest of the staff are a part of our extended family and we are truly grateful for their role in our children's lives.  We are very blessed to have such great partners in raising our two children!"

"My daughter is very cautious and tentative by nature.  Entrusting her to "strangers"  was very difficult for the entire family.  However, it has been a joy to watch her flourish at PattyCake.  She has made numerous friends and adores many of the teachers- some of which never even had her in their classroom!  I believe one of the most significant factors differentiating PattyCake from other facilities is truly the warmth of the staff.  They have helped my daughter adapt, and when necessary, they have accommodated her needs.  As a working mother, I can't express how much it means to me to know my daughter is in a nurturing environment with staff that really care about her."
