Learn MoreWe love Dawn of Discovery and our son does too! He is always happy to go to daycare and he loves to tell us about the fun he has all day. He is learning so much too, and we are impressed with the teachers and their ability to make learning fun. There are always art projects to bring home, which I love. The daily connect app allows us to see what he's up to during the day. There is always healthy food for breakfast, lunch, and snacks. Our son is well socialized and has grown so much since starting at Dawn of Discovery, we feel there is no better choice for our boy when we are at work. We highly recommend this child care center.
