What Parents Say
Hear from families who have trusted us with their children's early education.
"My 9-year-old daughter Savannah attended Mrs. Mary's Little Lamb Child Care for their summer camp program, and she absolutely loved it! Each week had a unique and engaging theme—like arts and crafts, LEGOs, the great outdoors, and science—and there was a field trip every week that matched the theme. The staff is incredibly kind, caring, and you can truly see their passion for working with children. I highly recommend Mrs. Mary's Little Lamb!"
"Mary's Little Lambs has been my childcare provider for almost 4 years now. They provide all in one care: preschool, after school pickup and care, and summer camp. We never have to worry about shifting our kids around throughout the year. We've been through all their programs and have had great experiences. The home is clean, and the business is very well-organized. I cannot speak highly enough about Ms. Mary and her staff. They have truly become family and love our kids like their own! Highly recommend!"
