Ms. Zita is a god send. I wish I had met her for my first child because we struggled to find a quality provider for my oldest son. Ms. Zita cared for my son so well. It was so sad when we had to say goodbye. I would say don't waste your time looking elsewhere. Ms.Zita is the best for your child....
