My daughter went there last year as well as this year and it was alot better place last year and she actually was taught things to get her ready for kindergarten last year. This year she hasn't learned nothing. But they actually had certified teachers last year but they don't have any this year all the teachers from last year quit.
Please be advised that this rating is in reflection of the site manager not the teachers. Ms. Nita doesn't seem to have the knowledge (or understanding) that it takes to run her facility. She seems to be lacking skills needed to adequately organize therapists and parents to achieve results for all parties. Very disappointed and have removed my grandson from her chaos and instability. I expected more than a confused babysitter for an autistic child, would never recommend this facility until management has changed.
