I have used this provider for less than 6 months

I had to leave a review as none of the other parents felt a need to. Yes this was a must!! I have a 9 month baby and he had 2 daycare experiences before this one, we we're going to keep trying until we got it right and we got it right!! Ms. Angel is the sweetest, she gave me the tour, assisted with registration and answered all of my questions. Ms. Dawn is the Director of the Infant Center and my son loves her dearly - he's been here almost a month now, and after a week he felt like home. The child:provider ratio is amazing here. I believe there are 4 providers total in the center and they all are super loving and attentive to the children.

Just a few quick facts.
Hours - 6:30 am to 6:30 pm
For Infants - You need to provide food, pampers, wipes, 4 changes of clothes, 4 bibs, one fitted crib sheet, formula, food and snacks.
Vouchers - YES!
Organization - Isn't a strong key with this facility.
Kid Separation - 1 yrs and under and kept separate from the 12 mon. - 2 yrs, and 2 and older and in a completely different building...right across the grass.
But most importantly - they will love your kids and your kids will love them!

I used to be an employee at Building Bridges, prior to Ms. Jennifer moving the center. When I was working there some of the teachers would taunt the children (I.E hitting, biting, pushing,). I reported one of the teachers and nothing was done about it. She continued to work there disciplining the children in the wrong way.
