We came from the East Coast when we put our 3 month-old under Shanice’s care, she's now three years old and I can attest that her language, gross motor skills and coordination skills are beyond her years all thanks to the foundation set by the gifted, talented and loving professionals at IBIS. Shanice, in particular, demonstrated a deep understanding of my daughter's growth and development. Her insightful guidance and nurturing approach made a significant impact on my daughter's well-being and overall happiness. It was so clearly evident that Shanice is deeply committed to every child under her care. The professionalism, expertise, and unwavering dedication make IBIS stand out as one of the best childcare centers I have ever encountered.

So if you’re considering IBIS, this is your sign…Get on their lists early - it’s absolutely worth it!

As a first time Mom, it was hard to trust anyone with my child, when my daughter was only 3 months old I enrolled her in early childcare. As a parent, I entrusted my greatest blessing to Shanice, she was always so friendly, courteous, loving and professional. I am grateful for the loving care and guidance my baby daughter received from her. I loved knowing my daughter was loved just like one of her own. I would highly recommend Shanice’s childcare services to everyone!
