"When our daughter was born we wanted to ensure that she was in the best care possible. As an infant, we trusted our daughter's care with Amy & Kids Co. because of the caring, loving and educational environment. Not only was our daughter surrounded by other children her age, she was able to socially interact with children older than her which was a huge positive for her development skills - she even learned to recognize sign language! We highly recommend Amy & Kids Co. to parents who are looking for a safe environment where their child can excel and learn new skills."
~ Melissa
"As the Vice-President of the Valley Association for the Education of Young Children, I want to share with you Amy's professionalism and dedication toward her career. I have known Amy for many years, and we have served together on the Valley AEYC Board a number of times. Amy has presented numerous workshops for her fellow family child care providers as well as group center teachers. She has been dedicated to her work with Valley AEYC and continues to strive for new ideas; sharing her knowledge and experience with others. I would recommend Amy as a high quality early childhood provider in the Valley."
