Hello I am the owner, it’s the staffs responsibility to sanitize weekly, parents rarely sent supplies so I now supply diapers wipes (store brand). Classroom activities are the teachers responsibility, it’s also their responsibility to maintain the classroom supplies to make sure it stays in working condition or tell me what is needed. I supply all the food out of pocket. All the negative claims are ridiculous if you actually know me. ????????
I've been using this daycare for years. They do the best they can especially with irresponsible parents dropping kids off sick, with no mask, with a mask that doesn't fit, ect. Parents need to do their part too! Great owner, caring and responsible teachers, clean facility! I would never send my kids anywhere else. The transportation to and from school is a HUGE plus.
Place is dirty, doesn’t always provide supplies needed to eat or do art activities with children. One or more teachers have to bring their own art supplies. Director takes milk for the child care center for her own house and buys other people’s food stamps off the Internet.
Very caring staff my children have fun and feel at home while in care.
