I have used this provider for more than 6 months

This facility does not comply with child to teacher ratios. They have been cited by the state multiple times and make no effort to correct this. You don’t have to take my word for it. It’s public knowledge on the state’s website. See website linked below.

Also, the post about the child being yanked by his ankle was investigated AND VERIFIED by the state inspector on the above website in May. So there’s no disputing that claim.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I witnessed an incident of child abuse on Wednesday, November 6, 2019 and have reported it to the proper authorities. My child no longer attends this daycare.
