SANTA MARGARITA CHILDRENS CENTER
5.0
Santa Margarita has exceeded all of our expectations. They made my 18 month old feel at home immediately even though this was his first experience with daycare. I am so grateful that he gets to have so much fun, learn so much and be cared for so well by the staff at Santa Margarita!
