irritated parent 2011-05-13 13:36:40

This daycare should not be considered a christian daycare at all. They do not pay attention to your kids nor do they clean them up and they are not taught out of the abeka cirriculum that they say they are. My daughter came hom several days with skid marks in her diapers do ti unproper  wiping. And dont let me get started on the director. She is the most unprofessional person I have ever met and prejudice. The old director ran this place well once they brought the new one in it went to hell in a hand basket. If you are considering this place stop it right now!

Disappointed Parent 2010-08-25 10:34:05

If you are looking for a Christian atmosphere for your child...than you might want to keep looking. My child attended summer camp at Lakeside and I have never seem a staff of so many unprofessional. My child knows the personal business of most of her instructors. One instructor actually ate my child lunch. The restrooms smell like they have never been cleaned. They did have some nice trips planned, but I think they tried to do too much. The hottest day of this summer these kids were baking in the sun. Not for a few mins, but for 3 to 4 hours at a time. On the way to and from their trips they listen and sing along to music that I would not let my teenager listen to. When my child came home singing gangster rap, it was time for us to check out of Lakeside. The unprofessionalism isn't just in school age, I head an instructor in the 3 and 4 year old room yelling and threatening a child, when she saw me, she stop in mid sentence. Hopefully there were some lessons learned this summer
