I used to work here and I can say I loved it The Owners and the Directors were great and My Co workers were all family They always helped each other out. They always put the children needs first and safety and supervision was very important to everyone They love their job and always makeing sure the kids were had fun and was learning and safe, the diretor brandi Champers was great and friendly to everyone
The job really needs to implement benefits and pay for their employees or else people will continue to either leave or get fired for wrongful reasons.
