This center is absolutely wonderful . The teachers are so caring , and professional . The directors are very nice and run a great program . One of the better daycares in Eau Claire for sure .
Not sure where to begin with this place. They owe me money and came up with some crap story after almost a year. They supposedly can't pay me because they are under different owner ship. It isn't like it was just a couple dollars they owe me. I am a single mother of a two year old boy and those hundreds that they owe me actually do matter. I have been calling them for the last 8 months. They either don't answer or lie when they say they will call back. While he attended daycare there I only liked one of his teachers. He would be crying when I dropped him off and he would be crying when I picked him up. He is a boy that is not shy and rarely cries. So this picture never seemed right to me. It makes me sick to my stomach to know that I sent my little boy there. With everything said and done I will never have respect for this place and the people that I have dealt with there
