I have used this provider for more than 6 months
Closes every other day for various reasons ranging from “pink eye outbreak” to “someone in the family has a surprise court date that was scheduled at 3 am” (clearly lying to get a day off). Very lazy and not worth spending any money on seeing as they’re only open for maybe half of the days you’re paying for. Currently putting my child on a wait list for somewhere better.
