I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Staff lied about my child’s incident. Belittled my child. No toddler should “deserve” to be hurt. The director did not do a full, proper investigation. Owner’s daughter then lawyered up. Horrible\traumatic experience for my child.

The preschool and transition rooms are great. They really strive for kindergarten readiness. The rooms under 3 are not aged appropriately. The children are not moved up to the next stage when they should be. Management does not take teacher recommendations. I recommend this program for children 3 and older. Under 3, be persistent and on top of your child's education. If you are questioning if they should be moved to an upper room, then do it.and ask to see the curriculum.
