I have used this provider for more than 6 months

This daycare has a lot of improvement. My child has told me that none of the bathrooms work and that the teachers feel bad that they have to send the kids to use dirty none, functioning. I have also seen the kitchen because they left the door open, and I can't believe how nasty and ugly it is. They have a roach infestation. You see them crawling all over the place. The staff has said it's been like that for a long time. I even took pictures of them. One thing I do love is the new Director. She has lots of compassion and wants to make the center change for the good of the children. Many parents do love what she is doing, but many of her ideas are getting turned down. If this continues, we will be going somewhere else that values its staff and building. I feel sad if the new Director stays.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
