Loved by local families

• “Miss Jolly has been watching our son since he was 6 weeks old and we feel blessed to have found her. She is like a second parent to him and provides him with the love and attention he needs.”

• “It has been my pleasure to have Mrs. Jolly take care of my 1.5 year old twins. When they started, they had never been to a daycare and I was very apprehensive about the transition, but she made the adjustment easy for all of us. She is extremely organized and I am enjoy the fact that that my twins always are clean, fed, and happy when I pick up at the end of the day.”

• “Our daughter has learned so much since she’s been with Ms. Jolly, we are constantly amazed. They are always singing songs, doing art projects, learning colors, letters, & numbers. It’s very much a full preschool experience just in the comfort of Ms. Jolly’s home.”

• “Jolly takes the emotional, developmental and academic growth of the children under her care very seriously. The environment is very positive and I am most often greeted by the sound of children laughing and playing…the only fussing is when we have to leave!”

• “Our son was previously at a large chain daycare for almost eight months and never fully adjusted. It took about a week and a half with Ms. Jolly for his behavior to turn around. She is so loving with him, and he actually enjoys going there!”
