I have been sending my two sons (2 &3) to Swift for over a year now, and they are really great. My younger son started out at the Infant and Toddler Center and just recently moved next door to the other facility. My boys love going to school, and I have never had any problems with any of the teachers or staff. They have always been very helpful with everything, especially Shami at the infant and toddler center. My older son loves his teacher Karyn in the Preschool room. Thanks to them I can come to work knowing that my children are well taken care of. Thank you!

Swift child care is the best place to put your kids. It is very clean and safe place. I would like to thank Mrs,Adna, Joanna,and Laura for everything they did to help me enroll my kids there.

Swift has had a very positive impact on my family. Our kids used to go to Mosaic (stay FAR away from Mosaic, they neglect and mistreat children and should be shut down!). The teachers at Swift and Ms Joanna helped us during the transition and has helped us find financial aid, scholarships, and therapists. The whole group at Swift is friendly and professional. I never worry about what will happen to my kids when I drop them off. I can go to work with piece of mind!

The school on Elmwood is slightly off the beaten path, but finding it was the best thing that ever happened. I have two children enrolled there, and I have to say that all of the teachers, administrators, and support staff are absolutely wonderful! My children (2 and 5) have learned so much since being there. The quality of education is excellent, and even provides a music class, which my son loves! My son will be going off to kindergarten in the fall and I am disappointed that I will have to take him out of this wonderful environment. I have experienced a few other childcare situations and schools in the area and "the Swift experience" blows them all out of the water. In addition, this school is safe, affordable, and the teachers are up to date on thier trainings. If you are considering quality childcare please visit this school. You won't be disappointed. If I could give a rate higher than 5 stars, I would. And a big kudos to Miss Betsy and Miss Samira, you are the best!

Love them. Miss Joanna and Miss Laurie are the best people to talk to if anything comes up.

the teachers are wonderful. The school director,Edna I believe, is an abosolute pain. I don't know if she's having a bad day everyday or if her demeanor is looking rigid always. Regardless, she is not so pleasent, a contrary to the wonderful staff that surrounds her.

I have a son enrolled at Swift Child Care in Mrs. Betsy's room. As an educator and educated consumer, I seek to find the best possible scenario for the investment. The location of this school was not exactly among my top 5, but I chose this location because of word of mouth from a family friend who also has her two children at Swift. I must say that I am quite pleased with the level of education/exposure of early development that he receives in his classroom. I have seen a much positive change not only in his overall behavior, but also from his educational abilities as compared to 6 months ago. His teachers and the school's administration have always been very pleasant and understanding. We are currently expecting and have already secured an infant spot for the fall. I am confident that our little 4 year will be more than ready for his upcoming Kindergarten experiences. I strongly recommend Swift Child Care to anyone in search of a quality program.
