Why this rating
This daycare earned 3 out of 5 stars overall. Structural quality reflects a 215% violation rate across 8 visits in the last 3 years (most recently inspected November 2025) and a license in good standing. The structural rating also includes Connecticut's licensing baseline — what every licensed daycare in the state must meet. Connecticut caps infant ratios at 1:4, toddler ratios at 1:4, and preschool ratios at 1:10. Lead teachers must hold a High School Diploma. No objective process measures (e.g., state quality rating or national accreditation) are available for this daycare. The overall rating reflects structural features only.
