    Sparkles has become so much more than a school for our family, it has truly become a second family to us. Our son started at 18 months old, and watching him grow, learn, and thrive through each classroom has been a wonderful experience.
    A very special shoutout to Ms. Caty, who was an exceptional teacher—warm, nurturing, creative, and always coming up with the most fun activities.

    Let's start with the infant 1&2 class. Loved having her with them. Even when we had minor issues, they were quick to correct them. My daughter loved the care she received from Ms. Brittney and Ms. Ronesha in infant 1. They did an exceptional job keeping me informed, taking care of my baby girl and ensuring she felt safe and loved. Ms. Ronesha is so good with the littles. You can tell she truly cares. When my baby went to infant 2, I was worried. That worry quickly dissipated with the calm and attentive...read full review
