I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Just terrible. My child constantly had blow outs, was sent home sick when he was fine got boo boos and never did they inform me of such thing. Staff are rude and disrespectful especially the director. They have no interest in working with children and families. Its basically a place to leave your child for a few hours just to say you have someone to watch them. They are so lazy they cant even make a meal schedule instead they white out the old ones and post it. I do not recommend this place if you would like quality child care, want your child to reach milestones and beat the statistics. If not its just another child being raised in the “hood”.

The shared curriculum fosters collaboration between our Day Care Centers and Head Start program. Children also benefit from Goddard Riverside’s partnerships with local museums, schools, and social service and health organizations.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
