I am an employee

ZERO STARS. I started working at this childcare 12/2020 and was fired 02/2021. My first week working here, the State Department of Health Services came to investigate an allegation. I was interviewed by the surveyors, and I was informed of the ratios and rules that needed to be followed. I had called the State Department of Health Services because I had a concern about the infant's room. My child was enrolled and attended every day I worked, which was amazing because where else can you find free childcare. But then I would go into the room and find that the rules were not being followed, and there were children in the room with my infant that could walk and leave their age-inappropriate food on the ground. I expressed my concern to the teacher Misty first, and when I continued to find fruit snacks and other foods on the ground, I called state to report what I saw. Sadly, the teacher Misty held a grudge against my child, and decided to not complete the daily log for my child. I didn't know how much she ate, how often she was changed, and how much she slept. As a new mother, I relied on this information and felt underwhelmed by the care of this teacher. I told the owner Nancy about this, and she said something would be done and that wasn't right of Misty to do. A few weeks later, and the rules still aren't being followed so I call State... Nancy heard that I had called them and came into the room asking if I had called state. I replied yes, the rules aren't being followed and I was worried about my child. She told me to get out of her building, and began making threats towards my child and I. When I went home that day, my apartment complex informed me that my boss had called and "made nasty remarks about me" and tried to get me kicked out because my apartments are income based, and she cut off my monthly income by firing me. Overall really terrible place to work, and if you love and care about your children look into things before bringing them here.

PARENTS BEWARE!!!!

I NEED HELP! Does anyone know the parents to the children that go to the children's only daycare on 850 S Ironwood Dr UNIT 114, Apache Junction, AZ 85120? I had only been working there for 9 days. I have seen physical and mental abuse in front of my own eyes by mainly Jessica Giblin, and Nancy France. The age group I work with is 1-2 year Olds and they are treated terribly. Also I told Nancy about a child possibly being molested and she said " I was a rape victim so who cares". This place needs to be shut down so if anyone knows any parents that have children that go to Children's only daycare message me please and thank you.

This daycare is a joke. The "teachers" know absolutely nothing about child development. This is a money making scheme. If the state of Arizona cared one bit about its children it would close places like this down. It is public record that the state visits one time a year gives them 9 citations and then is on their marry way until next year.

it says every staff member is licensed by the state, the only thing you do is a back ground check. A very high turn over rate of minimum wage workers, And why is this the only review, children only has been there for a few years now.
