This the worst daycare Center. They are dirty and nasty. They will also mistreat your child,they left my child with dirty diaper for hours and he got a really bad rash.
They are soooooooo unorganized. Staff won't answer the phone, they don't pick up on time on a consistent basis. Its always something with this daycare. They put diapers on potty trained kids making it harder on parents that are actually doing what they are supposed to do. They refuse to hold themselves accountable for their mistakes. This has been the absolute worse daycare experience for us.
