First of all, I should put it out there that I am a first time parent of a 2 year old little girl. I am very picky and was very against putting my child into a home daycare because I have always thought that having your child in a center was a better, safer choice. After meeting with Mrs. Tiwana and seeing how she interacts with my daughter and with me, my mind was immediately changed. I knew from the point in which I walked in her door that she was going to work. (after which I had been to other interviews with caregivers that I did not feel the same way at all) Mrs. Tiwana explained all of her scheduled activities to me, went through all of her forms with me and explained, in detail, the agreement. I am very satisfied with her professionalism and organization. Aside from all that, my daughter is very content when I pick her up, she is always fed and clean, and always wants to stay longer when I get there. She loves "going to Miss Tiwana's house" and absolutely loves all of the activities and fun she has while there. The facility is very much like "home" but also a learning atmosphere and is equiped with lots of age appropriate toys, learning activities, and most importantly care and love. I could not be more happy with a home daycare provider. I am actually more happy now with the care that my daughter is given than when she was in her previous childcare center. I would DEFINITELY recommend Mrs. Tiwana. (This coming from a very picky and not very easy to please mother when it comes to my daughter and my furry children). Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. (304) 906-9595
