This has been the best experience for my toddler. He loves going and he loves the teachers. This place is very welcoming and I feel safe sending my son here.

We've had 3 children at MMIA over the last 18 months, and it's been great for our family! Here's a breakdown of our experience by child so far: Our oldest attended a nearby daycare/preschool from 3 months until Pre-K, but we were disappointed with the lack of curriculum once we hit Pre-K. By the time we found MMIA and made the switch, our oldest only attended for 6 months before going to public school Kindergarten, but even in that short time we saw large jumps in her math and reading abilities and general interest in learning. Our 2nd child has attended from age 2.5 until just turning 4 recently. The larger amount of outside play and less rigid daily schedule has been great for her. We're eager to see how she progresses over the next two years compared to the experience our oldest had at the other daycare. For our 3rd child we've LOVED the infant care. Our older two attended the previous daycare and there wasn't much individualized attention due to their higher child/caretaker ratios. We saw a lot of staff turnover at these younger classes, too. So, when having our 3rd we looked into hiring a nanny given our previous experience. 6 months later we're so glad we sent him to MMIA. Their child/staff ratios are very low. The teachers provide a lot of individualized attention and care. The infant staff here seems more dedicated and the administration provides a lot of training, which I expect will help them retain a great staff. Highly recommended!
