I was an employee and I would not recommend this place to anyone. There are terrible people there, and their practices are not ethical.
The teachers are all over the place on their phones and not paying attention to the kids. One teacher grabbed a child by his arms and placed him between her legs telling him to shut up and be still. Very unorganized!
