Why this rating
This daycare earned 5 out of 5 stars overall. Structural quality reflects a 6% violation rate across 17 visits in the last 3 years (most recently inspected February 2026). The structural rating also includes Missouri's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. Missouri caps infant ratios at 1:4, toddler ratios at 1:4, and preschool ratios at 1:10. Lead-teacher education isn't regulated. Teachers must complete 12 hours of annual training.
