I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Both my daughter and my step-daughter go to Imagination Station, LLC. My step-daughter comes every so often and I let them know in advance and they are very accommodating. Every time I come to pick them up they don't want to leave. The daycare is their second home, I wouldn't take my kids anywhere else! Every day they do hands-on learning activities, always have a smile on there face and making friends. They go on field trips regularly in the summertime and even not in the summer when the weather permits. When we come my step-daughter is telling myself and her father what she learned and did. Imagination Station is a great family atmosphere!

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

My son had been going here for about 2 months. The owners Cayla and Mary were great at first. Very polite and nice, calm and gentle with the kids. I didnt like the helper in the baby room Donna because she wasnt as nice and gentle with the kids, she was just....there. After many times of my son coming home with his diaper full, nose running, clothes dirty or backwards, pacifier and sock lost, me and my fiance brought the issues to Cayla's attention KINDLY and RESPECTFUL!! When we left, Mary called me and DISRESPECTFULLY and UNPROFESSIONALLY told me that if we didnt like the daycare we could go somewhere else and that we were just making up things because we were late on our bill. Before we complained we had paid $100 on our bill and NEVER once tried to dodge our bill. Our concerns had NOTHING to do with our bill. We simply wants our child picked up looking the same way he did wen we dropped him off. We didnt trip the first few times because we understand things happen. But when it began happening A LOT we spoke up and instead of fixing the problems that THEY created they basically told us to go somewhere else if we didnt like it. I couldnt believe how unprofessional Ms Mary was being (in front of the kids especially) a woman i once really liked. Long story short I grabbed my son and the rest of his things before i had to snap on somebody in front of SEVERAL kids.
