I have used this provider for more than 2 and a half years for my children. An 8 week old baby and a two year old toddler. We began in 2017. Still today nearing 2025 my children still speak with remorse about the abuse they endured at with these daycare providers, Sovieda and Alex.
They talk about being hit for not going to sleep. Or being hit for being out of their "beds" at nap time to go to the bathroom. My daughter talks about hurting her finger on a table and Sovieda wrappi g the finger in her clothes and biting it. She talks about her baby brother being pick up by his hair! These memories and these traumas still live with my children and that is a horrible thing that parents need to know about. Dear Alex and Soveiva, Please keep your hands off the children. They do eventually talk.
Most of my experiences for the 3 - 4 I have utilized this daycare has been good. However we were upset to learn from our children recently that they were hit by Alex and their hair was grabbed and pulled. Please keep your hands off the children. They do eventually talk.
