We absolutely adore this daycare! Moving our son from a traditional daycare to this home daycare was truly life-changing — especially when it comes to his health. At his previous big daycare, he was constantly sick (26 times in one year — yes, I counted!), but since starting here in February 2025, he’s only been sick twice (Updated in Sept 2025).
It’s been such a blessing! We are also constantly amazed by the new things he learns every day. At just two years old, he already knows his ABCs, all his colors, lots of shapes, and can count to 10! Sometimes he doesn’t even want to leave when it’s time for pick-up, which says so much about how happy he is here.
I know in-home daycares can feel a little scary at first, but I promise you won’t regret choosing this one. Our son is so safe, happy, and loved here. You can truly tell that Anthony and Kristen (and their kids) care deeply for our little one and his well-being. We also appreciate the constant updates about him throughout the day — it gives us such peace of mind.
We highly recommend this daycare to any of our friends looking for a wonderful place for their child.

"We were fed up with our previous daycare center and started to look for something better for our son. We found Little Minds Home Daycare and have loved it from the day he started!
We have seen such a difference and so much growth in him. His previous daycare was not assisting with starting to help potty training and within a month of him starting Little Minds he was pretty much potty trained!
Kristen and Tony love our boy like he was theirs it’s amazing to see. They are so involved in all the kids learning and development and the kids have so much fun while they are there!
They are very reliable and consistent and while he is there we don’t have to worry! On weekends our son asks to go to daycare and we have to tell him it’s closed.
We highly recommend Little Minds!"

"After taking our daughters out of Tree house and moved to this wonderful home daycare we noticed the first day how our daughters seemed so much happier not fighting us to go to daycare. My oldest wakes up and ask to get ready to go. She loves it I think the home setting is such a better place. They do a wonderful job each and every day at taking care of the kiddos.
My oldest used to come home every day with bumps and bruises from Tree house, here at little minds she doesn’t she goes to day care and she is well taken care of. I feel as if we are blessed truly to get this opportunity to meet and have our kids attend this day care. So much anxiety I used to have when dropping my kids off at tree house is now gone thanks to the work of little minds.
Would recommend to any parent the kids are in safe hands."

“This Home day care is a great choice for your littles! My husband and I can already see an improvement in both of our girls demeanor and our daughters have only been attending here for a few months now.
Prior to Little Minds daycare our toddler was crying everyday at drop off. She would tell us she didn’t want to go to daycare. She was having multiple tantrums due to overstimulation. Since moving to Little Minds Home Daycare our daughter is able to voice her emotions and is happy at drop off! She often tells us about how much she loves attending here!
Our baby was only 3 months when she started here. Her personality has also blossomed since attending! She was only at the prior daycare for 1 month. At pickups our daughter would be sighing, as if she were crying all day while she was there. As parents it’s hard to see your little one like that, especially when you have no choice but to have your children in daycare. Since attending Little Minds Home daycare, our infant is always being picked up with a smile. Kristen and Anthony are very family oriented! They are great with our girls!
Our anxiety as parents have reduced tremendously, knowing our daughters are in great hands!”

“We took our 2 year old grandson out of his previous daycare as we began to search for a place that would give him more one on one time and more opportunities for growth at his age.
He has been with Uncle Tony now for three months and the difference in how our grandson speaks, his ability to carry on a conversation and the things he learns is night and day. We have enjoyed watching him grow day by day and he absolutely loves going to daycare. Previously we had to literally peel him off to get him into the classroom. Now he is always excited about “going to school”.
Best thing we could have done for our grandson!"
