- Corry Hawkins
My child has attended Carepointe since he was three months old. I had a really hard time returning to work and the staff lovingly worked with me. I was able... Read More to go nurse him in the middle of the day for the first few months, and they always kept me posted on the app with updates, pictures, and messages. He’s on his third room now, and each set of teachers has been lovely. When I have had concerns, the director was responsive and staff were always willing to work with us. Everyone is flexible and kind, and even staff that are not in my child’s room know his name and say hi. He loves all of the crafts and fun activities, and we are so pleased to have Carepointe as part of our team!
