A disappointed parent Dec 05, 2020
I have used this provider for more than 6 months

If i could leave zero stars i would! While this center has a few very special teachers who truly care about their students, the owner/director is very rude, horrible with communication and shows very little concern for the children’s well being. I had my infant-toddler and school aged child here and had several problems with both. When I brought up my concerns with the director she told me she is VERY busy and she doesn’t have the time. But continued to tell me “if i had a problem she would want to discuss it”. However every time i tried to contact her to schedule a time to talk she was too busy.
