Competition
Competition consists of Teeney Weeney Tots, Lucky Kids Club, the Baptist Church's Sunrise Nursery School and home daycare.
Teeney Weeney Tots is Sunset's only full–time, commercial daycare. They take children Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. They will be our only direct competition. But, direct competition in the sense that they provide a similar service; they consistently have a waiting list for children needing daycare. Quality of service has always been a question when Teeney Weeney Tots is concerned: Poor teaching, poor supervision and limited space are some of their shortcomings.
The remaining licensed competition falls into two categories: part–time commercial and home day-cares. The part–time daycare facilities run either limited days through the week or only a few hours during the day. These types of facilities do not offer a full–time daycare. For instance, the Sunrise Nursery School offers either two– or three–day sessions (only three hours per day.) These types of services also restrict the age of the child, accepting none under the age of three years.
