★★★★★Da'Bria ClarkBoth of my children attend this facility and have for the past 2 years! Ms.Kim is a wonderful woman, she knows the names of all parents and children that come through the doors. She also is very hands on with enrollment. The teachers are great at what they do, they are great at helping children prepare to transition from preschool to grade school as well. I recommend On Purpose to almost everyone looking for child care or a great preschool. My kids love it there!
★★★★★Brianna RussellLove love love this school! Ms. Kim knows everybody by name (parents & kids) and helps you in any way she can when it comes to getting enrolled. Ms. Nicole is the best and so is Ms. Danaye. Both my children have attended this school and I plan on my third and last child to come to this school as well! Thank you staff for all you do!
