I am an employee

Upon reading these reviews I have realized that as manager,this is a bad reflection and portrayal of the facility. A staff meeting was held and all parents concerns addressed. We are dedicated to our profession as a whole and work to try and resolve all issues and problems. I in the future hope that all my parents have a pleasant experience at the facility, but realize it is not always possible, but will be dedicated to make that happen.

This daycare needs a new manager! Some of the teachers are very sweet and caring but some are not. The director screamed at my child (and other children) in a way I would never talk to him! She spoke bad about my child's father in front of myself, other teachers, and my son. I would not recommend this daycare to anyone! Some of the employees need to be fired!

My son attended this daycare facility and cried every morning and evening. I thought it would pass ithis never did. I started to pay close attention to their services. One day my son came home complaining a teacher was hitting him in the back. I spoke with the director she advised the teacher would never do such a thing. I immediately removed my child. Then I had a friend have the same thing happened with two of her kids. She said her child had marks on her. She asked the director about it she said they will provide an incident report. My friend said the incident report and what they told her did not match. She removed her children. If you choose to take your kids here pay close attention to everything.

This location needs to be shut down! I'm surprised to see not too many have complained. I have tried addressing multiple concerns with staff members and they have an attitude.My kids don't want to go to this daycare anymore. They DO NOT know how to communicate with parents. They are constantly screaming at there kids and will always say that your kid is lying. It got to the point where there is a 11 year old daughter of a staff member that is a bully and when I initially approached her I was advised that she cannot separate after schoolers. This week I had to addressed to Ms. Sandy that she has no authority to throw out my kids item,and today my son tells me he doesn't want to go to daycare tomorrow. There are 1-2 people out of the bunch that are okay, but at tge end of the day when discussing an incident they become offensive and give an attitude as if they cannot handle a basic conversation. I have witnessed parents making complaints and must say they do not care. Why work in a daycare if you can't or enjoy working with kids????

This has to be the worst day care. These people never call you when something happens to your child. My daughter left there scrapped and with bruised gums because she was pushed off the slide and they never called me, also picked her up with bruise on her face and they tried saying it was a rash. Also the "teachers" are very ghetto and rude. My daughter lasted 3 weeks and I pulled her. They are very under staffed and Uncaring.
