“I felt my child was 100 percent ready for kindergarten, thanks in great part to his time at Family First Childcare Center. At his elementary school conference, his teacher told me his writing is ‘unheard of’ for a kindergartner— I give the Family First Childcare curriculum tons of credit for this!"
