It isn't in Morrisville but not far away - We have our daughter in Spanish For Fun off Weston Parkway near North Harrison and are very happy with our choice. They have a webcam system available.
We visited several daycare options with our daughter to see which she responded well to. We tried a half day at a few and that helped us in making our decision as well.
I will comment on the web viewing. Used it at another location. It was helpful when my child got hurt on the playground and the staff gave me 2 different stories. It did give me some idea if my child settled in but it never gave the full picture because you have no voice on it.
FWIW, my child goes to another program now that has no video monitoring and it is a non-issue. Also had experiences with other programs that did not have video monitoring. If the staff is good and you trust them (trust your instincts) it is not necessary
I have friends that have kids at Kiddie Academy and they think highly of it. Our kid is at La Petite and we really like it. I think Kids r Kids is thought of as the best but they usually have a wait and are more expensive.
La Petite takes credit cards and is really really flexible with schedules. They are also open till 6:30 and have a pretty stable teaching staff right now. They don't have live look ins via video but they do send about 10 email updates a day that include pictures and details of what your child is doing.
I had no idea that there were daycares with video surveillance. That's weird.
Why weird? My oldest went a preschool that had cameras allowing parents to take a look at what was going on. My husband was living overseas at the time, and it gave him a chance to see his son everyday. This was about 16 years ago (time flies!), well before skype.

For one I wouldn't want my kids on camera all day. I know it's locked down to customers only, but still.
Second, I doubt good child care professionals want to work somewhere where they're being watched all day. They don't make enough money to deal with that.
