There should be zero star option. The staff talk about people behind their back. When the 'child care' personnel are supposed to be with the children outside, they are all congregating inside the doorway, nobody is playing with the children. Nobody cares about the children, it is all a show and it fake. NOBODY is actually spending time with the children. This is a horrible place I would not put my dog there, let alone a little baby
