I have used this provider for less than 6 months

“Ms Gabby” should not be working with young children. In the classroom she picks favorites and shuns away the other children. She treat 3 year old children like they don’t matter. I am baffled on how she is a teacher of young children. Her communication skills are horrible, she won’t make eye contact and completely ignores you. She should not be working with young children!!!!!!!!!
