Don't believe the hype! This is not a 5 Star Center! Who told them a lie like that, saying they are a 5 Star Center? Maybe in their Pipe Dream! Maybe the person that owned this daycare was until this Clueless New owner decided to buy it! Got this Director that is inexperienced to run the place! Her and a other employees stay Half Baked all the time! New parents come in on their Childs first day, and the Director is nowhere to be found! Her and her sidekick leave the center on company time just so they could get a quick fix or whatever they choose to do! I was on sick leave for two weeks, and when I went there to pick up a paper for my Doctor to sign so I could come back to work, Her and another staff member were Missing In Action!!! No supervision! Majority of the staff are Potheads, and all of this is happening right under the owners nose! She's in her own little World! All She cares about is making her paper and getting rich off of these poor Kids that get CCAP! So sad! She'll hire anyone off of the streets! People who know nothing about the daycare business! Some of them can't even speak English! Some Teacher's stay so high all the time they can't function! They let me go because a Students parents had issues with me because I didn't make their Childs's needs a big priority right away, because I had Kids that were out of control! I never had any problems with any parent since I worked there! I did my job! I was always looked over! The Director tried to make it seem like I didn't change diapers that morning when those parents came in! I had to leave a Child on a mat just so I could get their Kid! He was kicking and screaming and I had another Child that was trying to open the door every chance he got just so he could run out! The director lied on me so bad to the owner and I lost it! She set me up that morning! She ran to the class that I was in that morning and took the bag out full of diapers and took it to the trash so I didn't have any proof that I changed the Kids! And you know what hurts the most is that She had other Teacher's lying on me! The lying Heffa that takes over after I leave knew I changed diapers in the morning She's seen me change them and then I take out the trash! She gonna lie and say that sometimes her Kids be wet! All I did is was be good to her lying behind! I use to give her extra time on her break, I made ???? Chains for her! After awhile I just stopped because I got tired of her and Jenny trying to take advantage of me!I would give her and extra few minutes and She'd end up taking a darn hour! It's bad enough She comes to work everyday late and when She decides to Show up She wants to chill in the office and sit with the director and then leave on company time! We all reap what we sow, and it's gonna come back and bite them in the butt! I never seen a daycare ran like this one!The director never liked me! She is wicked! The owner believed every lie that girl told on me! I hope they get everything that comes to them!
