The plan will include the following steps being taken: 1. A policy has been developed in the employee policy and procedure manual to ensure that at no time will employees disclose personal information regarding a child or family either in person or on a social media platform. In addition, staff must have their social media platforms set to private and may not accept and "friend" request from parents at the center. This will help to ensure that the family and staff's privacy are not violated. 2. An email regarding the policy modification and steps moving forward have been sent to all staff. Additionally, a staff meeting has been scheduled for April 6th any 8am where the updated policy will be reviewed. Staff will have the time to ask questions regarding the new policy to ensure that all staff understand the importance of confidentiality. On the same date, a training will be held with Barb O'Malley for all staff on the topic of "Professionalism" & "Communicating with Families"

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Horrible place, owner is a miserable woman that chain smokes outside the center constantly. They allow people to come into the center during the day. Not a safe place for children
