“We have been with Child’s Time Penrose for 6 1/2 years over 2 children. We have nothing but amazing things to say about them. From day one there has been constant kindness, respect, love and – most importantly — fun. We are so grateful for everything they have given to our children and will forever be part of the Child’s Time Whanau.”
