If i could give this daycare no stars that's just what they would have been given. They never have an adequate amount of staff, the director is never available, and for some reason when i picked up my niece the few times that i did it was a group of rude people sitting at the door looking at me crazy. They didn't allow me to go to the back as if it was something to hide they quickly yelled to the teacher that my niece's ride was here. I told my niece's mother this isn't the place for her.
