AFTER INVESTIGATING THIS DAYCARE I FOUND THEY WERE UNORGANIZED AND VERY LACKADAISICAL IN THEIR APPROACH WITH SECURITY. WHILE THE STAFF SEEMED VERY PLEASANT, IN MY ESTIMATION IT IS IMPERATIVE THEY RECEIVE MORE TRAINING IN MANAGEMENT AND SECURITY PROCEDURES.  BECAUSE OF THIS, I AM GIVING THIS FACILITY AND ITS FACULTY AND STAFF A POOR RATING AND WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM FOR SERVICES.
