Upset Mommy Apr 09, 2014

Do not send your children here! They do not care for your children properly, do not make any effort to feed them and only speak spanish to all the children. There is something odd about who is in charge as the woman suppossedly running the day care doesnt make the prices or rules but allows her husband to handle it. I was also lied to about the amount of time her husband is actually in the daycare discipling my children! Completely dissatisfied with this "daycare".

I wouldn't have given this "Daycare" any stars but it wasn't an option! My nephew has been injured twice at this site due to lack of supervision from the "provider" because there is usually only one person caring for up to 16 children which is not allowed by law. If safety is your main concern i suggest you leave your children with a pack of wolves before taking them here!!!
