They play with your child at this daycare, feed them healthy meals, but provide very limited help with potty training and they do not change your children's diapers when they dirty them. They would state that our child would blown out of her diaper multiple times per week, but this is only do to them not changing her diaper. She also consistently had a diaper rash for the same reason. And when she had a runny nose I would pick her up at the end of the day with a fully encrusted fave and her hair was stuck to her face because her nose was likely not wiped all day. When I spoke to the owner about it her response was "your child is difficult". It is a fun place for the kids but lacked the basic care you would expect from a licensed daycare.
