And I think it's great too that there are several very well liked day care providers in our area. Very cool...but, as I say, we're partial to the Nook! GO NOOK GO! ;-)
(Which is important to me because, I'm from Chicago and it's not too common up here in Wisconsin past Milwaukee, and because we are a very mixed family, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Native American and Black). The facilities are very clean. There is also a great amount of communication from teacher to parent, and from teacher to teacher. I can't say enough good things about this place, my four year old loves it.
