Why this rating
This daycare earned 3 out of 5 stars overall. Process quality reflects a Keystone STARS rating of No STAR Level and a Head Start CLASS observation rating of 4 out of 5 (Childery's normalized score; the underlying CLASS tool uses a 1-7 scale across 10 dimensions). Structural quality reflects a 100% violation rate across 1 visit in the last 3 years (most recently inspected May 2025). The structural rating also includes Pennsylvania's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. Pennsylvania caps infant ratios at 1:4, toddler ratios at 1:5, and preschool ratios at 1:10. Lead teachers must hold a High School Diploma. Teachers must complete 6 hours of annual training.
