Why this rating
This daycare earned 4 out of 5 stars overall. Structural quality reflects a 50% violation rate across 4 visits in the last 3 years (most recently inspected January 2026), no complaints on record over the same window, and a license in good standing. The structural rating also includes Indiana's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. Indiana caps infant ratios at 1:5, toddler ratios at 1:6, and preschool ratios at 1:13. Lead teachers must hold a High School Diploma. Teachers must complete 12 hours of annual training. No objective process measures (e.g., state quality rating or national accreditation) are available for this daycare. The overall rating reflects structural features only.
