I just want to say that the Berry Patch is a wonderful place to work and a great facility to have your child in. I worked @ the center from 1996-2001. I'm no longer in Missouri, but when friends of mine ask about childcare I always mention the Berry Patch. The staff is great and turnover is low. The same teachers and directors are there still.
My youngest is graduating from The Berry Patch this year and I have been extremely pleased with the education and care she has received. My oldest was there from age 2 to entering kindergarten and he was very well prepared for school, both socially and academically. The teacher turnover is extremely low. Both of my children had all the same teachers. The children are treated very well, the facility is clean, and the health and safety of the children is their highest priority.
good daycare: I really like this daycare for kids over 2. I was at Zelda Epstein and things totally fall apart there for kids over age 2 it was terrible. Berry Patch has a very good program in place for the older kids but most importantly it is warm and safe!!! visit the classrooms during the day when the kids are there.
