Full Ranking Detail
childcare
Safe Haven Daycare And Education Center LLC in Medina, Ohio is an Ohio SUTQ Bronze-recognized program serving infants through school-age children with a licensed capacity of 116. The center employs a child-centered, play-based curriculum organized around four areas of child development (social, emotional, physical/language, and cognitive), with daily schedules balancing structured and unstructured play in creative arts, music, language arts, science, and math. It accepts PFCC vouchers for income-eligible families and participates in subsidized child care programs, making quality care accessible to working families. The director brings significant early-childhood credentials—a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education and over 8 years of leadership experience—alongside a hands-on commitment to safe, educational, and affordable programming. The absence of public parent reviews on major platforms limits independent insight into day-to-day experiences.
