This daycare has a nice facility. You feel very welcomed when you first join. However, as I worked there my boss left me alone for most of the day with 16 or MORE children at a time when she’s only licensed for 16. I would not get involved with this daycare, as things did not end professional. I’m not here to bash, I’m here to inform the next person who wants to apply for this job.
Thank you.
