Very unhappy Jan 30, 2019
I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My son is left in the highchair all the time even sleep. They were not kept safe away from dangerous things.
I'm going to complain they had to eat dry noodles. My boys continued to complain about almost everything.Not a very loving atmosphere. When I told my children she threatened to black ball me to make finding care difficult. I truly felt threatened by her and her assistant

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Your children will not eat nutritious meals you'll be lucky if they eat it all we will have to sleep most of the time when they are in her care if you have an infant this child will be in a differant room the entire time. A room where they do not have to hear the child. The entire family will claim hours when the children were not there they do not have you sign the attendance sheet so they can put on their own hours of attendance. Never once had my children done a fire drill or a safe on-site drill. They do not work with the children they do not teach you anything not even basic. It's as if they watch themselves. I had the same experience with the other family member I attempted to use. She is definitely in it for the cash only there's no love your child here
