I did not care for this establishment very much. There is a maximum capcity of 50 children allowed here, however there are only two rooms in which all the children can be placed. I do not like the fact that ages 3-12 are all placed in the same room. I also do not know how they teach pre k when the kids of all different ages are in the same room. I wouldn't think it would be impossible to pay attention when other kids are running around. I think that it is over crowded both inside and outside with toys. I also did not care for the fact that the children under two mostly walk around without shoes on. When they come home their socks are disgustingly dirty. I moved my child to a facility that has more of a seperation and where I feel more attention is paid to my child
