I absolutely love this day care! Kirsten and Danielle are very efficient in the way they do their jobs. I drop off my twins every day with confidence that they are being well taken care of. They are there for a very long time during the day, so them being safe is extremely important to me! From my experience, I have witnessed 0 red flags from Cadence on Butler rd!! The entire staff are all super sweet and I love how they all call every child by their names. I ask my twins every day how they like their teacher(s), and they always give me the same positive answer. While no daycare is perfect, me and my twins seem to really enjoy this one. Highly recommend.
