 Several complaints of staff spanking children. Children are spoken to harshly, made fun of, and popped on occasion. Many “coverups” happen in this daycare due to it being in a church. Current director keeps getting away with her poor management due to her being a church member. Do not trust!

Parents should know the majority of the preschool "teachers" and staff do NOT have their childcare credentials! The pre-k teachers have no degrees! Please do your research. This is against state guidelines!
