I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Likes to create issues for you at your day job with incompetence. Specifically, having you leave work because your kid has yogurt in her hair and they want to call it lice. It didn't seem to clue them in that none of the other kids had it when they checked them. That's fine and dandy, was letting that go, except they want to gripe when we advise them the $25 charge to get her medically declared lice free (which they required for her to return, and we work of course, so needed her to return) would be taken out of the daycare pay the following week.

This, of course, is after the fact that anyone there constantly has a holier-than-thou attitude and actively tries to pit a child's two parents against each other by "tattling" on one or the other. I struggle to come up with a more appropriate term than "tattling" because it really is nothing but an extension of their supercilious BS and general nosiness.
