I thought that this was the place I would feel safest for my daughter, considering my son attended here years ago and loved it. A lot like the other recent reviews, this place is on a down hill spiral. I withdrew my child two weeks ago, when I discovered some disturbing news. My child had moved up a class, and was only in the new room for one week, I started noticing some behavioral changes, she cried her eyes out every morning begging me not to leave her. My gut told me something was up. Sure enough my daughter came to me telling me the teacher pinched her and hurt her. I went for review of the tapes saw enough to know this teacher was harmfully grabbing my child as well as others. I withdrew my daughter the same day. I also signed a statement saying I would no longer pay for tuition at this school. Considering this was a Monday, and I had already paid for her time there. I then receive a letter from the owner stating I owe 450.00 and that if I do not pay it, I am being taken to magistrate court. There was never any concern for my child from them, only a brush under the rug as if I was over reacting. It was also stated and proven from BRIGHT FROM THE START (Its like dfacs for daycares) That they are being cited because they conducted an investigation after what happened to my child and indeed confirmed it was happening to multiple children!! I am furious and fed up. These people only care about your money, not your child. The woman who was being physically harmful to the children was still working there after the accusations originally started! I want other parents to be aware, this place is a joke. Not once has anyone attempted to make things right after what happened to my child, and I am sure the other children. But yet a letter threatening me with court if I don't pay for money that isn't even owed. They should be shut down. I have since enrolled my daughter else where and she is a totally different child, happy, and I no longer have to worry about who is hurting her or mistreating her.
