About the Provider

Description:

By inviting children from their House to our House our goal is to provide the safest and happiest environment that will give them every opportunity to develop to their greatest potential under the caring eyes of our experienced providers. Our little students will build skills and confidence through games, songs, movement and art. We provide an outlet for creative expression by encouraging children to play in our child-directed center to ensure that a child develops at his or her own pace. Sharing, cooperating and taking turns teaches a child the importance of being a team player. We focus on both age appropriate education fundamentals and social skills. Our affectionate providers keep small hands busy and young minds engaged through activities designed especially for their age group. All this combined with daily prepared nutritious food.

Additional Information: This facility is authorized to administer over-the-counter topical ointments only;

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Stole our money!

The owner and sole daycare provider, Madeline, berated my wife for being 30 minutes late (she picked our kids up at 6:00 instead of 5:30 due to mass trans delay). Proceeded to tell my wife she was "ungrateful", that my 18 month old and 3 year old "lack discipline", and then guilt tripped my wife because our 18 month old ruined a chair of hers by scraping his teeth across it, which she, I guess, expected us to pay for (because it's our fault she allowed our 18 month old toddler to interact with her expensive things).

After getting home, my wife expressed her intent to find a different daycare provider. Madeline responded by telling my wife that our children were not welcome anymore and to not bring them in. We had no problem with that. My wife only asked that Madeline return to us the money for the value of the rest of the week. She absolutely refused, saying that she would keep the money as compensation "for all the favors".

My wife and I are absolutely astonished. This place should be shut down.

We'll be seeing Madeline in civil court very soon.
