Response to 4/23 review Feb 01, 2016
I am an employee

For you to feel this way out of the many parents that we've come across over the 4 years that we've been in business in Clayton, I would have to say that it must have been a personal reason for this type of negative review. The things that you alleged could have easily been brought to our attention by you but nevertheless they weren't. I encourage anyone that feels this strongly to come to us Directly! Our doors are locked every night after 6:30pm. Our children's bathrooms are cleaned at the end of the night. And we have always had a Superior sanitation grade. If all that you said was true, I'm sure our sanitation grade would reflect that. Since this was posted from almost 2 years ago, anyone reading this should know that just like with any childcare center there's a thing called turn over. We have all new staff and have only gotten better over time. No one is perfect. What has been posted on the internet for personal reasons can't be erased or redone. We are thankful and blessed for all the business that we've received and continue to receive.

disappointed Jun 20, 2014

Had an interview set up with Miss Nina. I missed half a days work and drove half an hour.She wasnt even there. Another lady took my app and said she would contact me for another interview date. Ithink I will pass.Not very professional if you ask me . My time is valuable too,plus the time I took off work and gas money ,all for nothing.

This place is very unsafe and unsanitary. First of all, the only providers that work for this daycare that are worth your money are Sandra & the Latino lady that runs the baby room. The lady who runs this place, Nina, has got to be the rudest, pathetic excuse for a childcare provider I have ever come in contact with. She is a foster parent do you would think she had it together but whoever approved her to foster/adopt children should have their license stripped from them! She not only acts like she is above everyone, she takes no responsibility for problems with her facility or concerns from parents. The price is good a week to have you child there but it is not worth any amount of money when your child(ren) is/are neglected. There were two occasions where I walked in and my child was UNATTENDED with the door freely unlocked so just anyone can walk in after 8pm. Bathrooms for the kids are soaked in and reek of urine! Obviously nobody knows what bleach is at this place. She also suggests that children be dropped off at her residence when she doesn't feel like paying one of her people to open the daycare for that day. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL and GHETTO are the only words to described this lady in a simple fashion. I would NEVER recommend this facility to anyone and I feel sorry for the kids she has enrolled that are subjected to her neglectful and dirty establishment. It's a shame Johnston County rated this lady a five star daycare because she isn't worth one star by any means!
