Great daycare serving all ages. They are very thorough and thoughtful; great advocates for the children. First daycare I've ever seen that has emergency preparedness kits for every child! I am very impressed by the way they run the center and how affordable their rates are. Rare to get 6AM to 6PM hours in Chilliwack! Highly recommend Briar Patch for all ages.
