I am the owner

This is the childcare provider responding because this sight will not let me respond to reviews. I for one didn’t know this web page was a thing. The information on this page is wrong. The phone number is wrong, the license number is wrong. And the discription is wrong, I never wrote that. For another the bad reviews, there is always 2 sides. After I saw the years that were posted, I know who they are without even them leaving their real name. One parent I had to kick out because of lack of payment and got very mouthy in front of the children , so I told her to leave. She threatened to call the state on me but never did. Another one was again lack of payment and when I tried to get the funds , started claiming I don’t watch the children, but I can show you cards she gave me as a thank you for such good care( until she couldn’t pay) . The one with the ATV comments and the dog. Well it’s funny because her children loved the lab and her children asked to ride the ATV many many times and we said no and her children were upset. As far as a hunting family, yes we are. Guns are upstairs and locked this parent didn’t agree with hunting and let me know many many times that she didn’t like hunting. Please before believing everything you read, please reach out and ask. I’m an open book. Once I post this review, I am going to see about how to get off this sight because the information is all wrong. Go on your state website, it will have all up to date and correct information.

I have read a couple of these reviews and know the people well that wrote them, The reason why these parents are upset is they took advantage of Angela and left on bad terms, remember their is 2 sides of a story.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Awful! Your children will be left unsupervised on a daily bases. She leaves the children in the basement while she’s upstairs in her home. Very dirty. Very dishonest, unsafe household. Angela is lazy and doesn’t do anything she says she does. This women is a liar and has no business watching our children.

Cleanliness of daycare and outside property is a big concern, unsafe objects and trash all over. Children left unsupervised. Kids are forced to watch 2+ hours of TV daily while little ones sleep. Too many issues to list!

I do not see what the other family above sees. I have used this provider for over 6 years...she is wonderful. yes she has a dog, but all the kids love her. There are hunters in the home, but the space is down stairs and guns are locked and put away upstairs. She does have a fenced yard, but she is very far off the main road, so that does not concern me. They do have an atv, I have never seen it used around the children. I have seen it used for plowing of the road and driveway. She is wonderful with the kids, she hardly takes time off, and that's good for a working families. This is one of the hardest jobs out there, and people should be lucky to have someone open up their home to children. The person above needs to remember, this is a home as well. They are aloud to hunt, have dogs and cats, and ATV. I would highly recommend this provider to anyone.

Disappointed Dec 29, 2010

My child attended for a short time.

Be aware there are Lots of guns in the house which are not always secured. Family of hunters and security persons.

Unkept property inside and out, dangerous items for children lying around, accidents waiting to happen. Family ATV's running wild around property and on street.

Property not fenced to protect children from wild animals, main road and everything else that preys on small children (including the human kind).

Large untrained dog on property attracting other large dogs.

Wouldn't recommend to anyone and my child will not be coming back.
