“We love that our daughters are not only being provided excellent care while we’re not with them but that they are truly learning new things each day. The director and staff have been amazing to our family. We really enjoy the family events that EVELC hosts, like the fall festival, family water play day, winter program, etc. that provide families an opportunity to spend more time with their kids at the center.” — Lynn G.
