Shut them down Feb 27, 2024
I have used this provider for more than 6 months

This place is the worst place to send your children. They will hit and kick your children, yell at them, slam them down in chairs, make them sit in timeout all day or force them to sit still on the floor and watch tv all day. They lie to parents faces every single day and are the worst people. I can't believe this place is still open. They do whatever they want behind their closed, locked doors!!
