I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My child went there for nearly a year. This facility always seemed to be under staffed and under-educated for dealing with children. I witnessed staff yelling at children (especially Grandma Marty) on several drop off/pick up occasions to get the children to do what they wanted instead of getting on their level and handling it more appropriately for the child's age. I would not recommend this facility for child care or as an early learning facility.
