My daughter started at Nese when she was 10 months old under old ownership. I had interviewed at least a dozen in home daycares and toured a handful of daycare facilities. What I liked most about Nese was how developmentally focused they are with the kids, even at such a young age and also offering playtime. When I found out that they were going under new ownership, I was nervous that the curriculum would change along with the staff. When we found out the new owners were going to keep everything as is, I knew that my daughter was in good hands. I recommend Nese to every parent that is looking for care. The staff is so thoughtful and loving and truly care about the kids. When my daughter comes home every day, all she talks about are her teachers and how she can’t wait to see them the next day. I’m so glad that we found this place when we did and secured our spot as soon as possible! With another baby on the way, I am sure that he will receive the same love and support my daughter did when she started in the infant classroom. She is now in Ms Ana’s toddler class and is thriving!

We love Nese Kids Care so much! Both of our children (3 and 1) have been at Nese Kids Care since they were just a few months old, and we feel so lucky we found them. Every teacher knows both kids and shows them so much love and care. They nurture them through milestones (for example, they were incredibly supportive with potty training) and help them develop important behavior and social-emotional skills. Now at age three, my daughter is loving learning things like letters, numbers, weather, traffic signs (with still plenty of play time and outdoor time every day). She has always had strong verbal skills and I credit Nese for that. The teachers were attentive and helpful with the physical therapy exercises both kids needed as infants. We trust their advice and know they truly care about our family. Communication is excellent. We get regular updates and photos throughout the day, monthly calendars and newsletters, and personalized evaluations of our kids' development at least twice a year. There is also a back to school night. Whenever our kids have been having a challenging time at home or school, the staff works with us as a team. They also offer thoughtful extras like after care, Parents’ Night Out, and fun community events such as Trunk or Treat and the pumpkin patch. Our kids just love seeing their teachers at these events. There are also optional enrichment classes you can sign your kids up for like yoga, music, dance, and sports. Special summer programming include things like water day, petting zoo, and special visits from characters like Moana!

We are so grateful to be a part of Nese Kids Care and adore the care our daughter receives. She first started attending daycare in February 2025 when the center was under different ownership. When the new owners took over this past summer, we were grateful to hear they were committed to maintaining the staff. The teachers are the heart and soul of the childcare center and a big reason why we are so thankful for this facility. Our daughter was only 4 months old when she started and it was a major adjustment to trust someone else with her care. We immediately felt so comforted by the way her teachers learned her preferences, worked with us to optimize her experience and demonstrated such loving care. She developed such strong relationships with Ms. Diana, Ms. Jazz and Ms. Jianna. We were delighted to see photos regularly throughout the day of her activities and updates of her naps, meals, diaper changes, etc. We were particularly impressed with how well Ms. Diana was able to get our little one to take a bottle. Her teachers bring out the biggest smiles and she gets excited when we start walking up to the building. She is now in classroom 2 with the older babies and loving her new teachers, Ms. Jessica and Ms. Brook. The new owners have done an incredible job fostering a sense of community. They held an adorable, festive pumpkin patch as well as an awesome trunk-or-treat for the kiddos and have continually been making enhancements, such as offering aftercare for evenings and Friday evening care for parents' night out. They are also looking to add a garden and have updated much of the well-loved equipment. The owners are an active part of the daycare and attend events and have been accessible for feedback and communication. They also have a new baby (he's adorable!) and he attends the daycare, too :) We look forward to being part of Nese Kids Care for years to come! If you are looking for care for your little one, I highly recommend touring their facility and seeing it for yourself.
