My toddler son went here for about 10 months before the director and owner kicked him out due to because I voiced my concerns about the lazy teachers in his class sending him him smelling like poop with poop under his nails , on his legs and try let him step in tire poop. It was all under his feet. And they had the nerve to send him home with no socks on. This happened twice! Then on top of that he came home with red marks on him . His shoulder , his neck and his back. This was brought to the owners attention and I demanded to see the cameras but was never given the chance to. I was given the run around. Never saw the footage. My son is only 2 yrs old. I wouldn’t recommend this school to anyone! Very unprofessional. High teacher turnover! Please don’t send your kids here!!
Hello I am addressing this letter to Ms. Lotasha Morgan. I hope this letter finds you well. I have been having a hard time trying to reach you. I’ve asked both Academy’s for your email and contact number and they have yet to respond with the information. My children attend the location on Fairington rd. in Lithonia.I’ve been trying to contact you since October 7. The main reason why I am contacting you now is in regards to a series of situations that have taken place. But before I explain that I want to Explain that I don’t think my children have been attending your daycare for a full 30 days. The rules and procedures are relatively new to me .On October 7 I requested that I be able to bring my youngest son Akeem Wallace a birthday cake and presents for his birthday. Miss Hawkins told me that it would have to be approved by someone due to issues surrounding Covid-19 and that she would let me know. Miss Hawkins said she herself approved the gathering . I brought the cake and gifts to the daycare and went to work I told her I would be back by 2:30. When I left work to return back to the center to celebrate with my son I was stuck in traffic .I call the day care and told them that I would be running late and I would be there around 3 PM. Someone answered the phone and said OK see you at three. I was under the impression that everything would be still be intact. When I arrived at 3:08 as I walked in the door Ms.Hawkins said you missed it and that the cake Had been served and that the gifts were already given to my son. I was distraught because I had just called at 2:20 and said that I will be there at 3 PM .She told its 308 and we’ve done everything.I said ma’am you’ve cut up a cake gave it to a bunch of students and sang happy birthday and administer gifts in eight minutes?She assured me that it had already happened and I was late. I asked her why didn’t she call me and tell me beforehand to ask if I wanted her to go through with it with out me?She said that she did not have my number and there was no way to call me. With tears rolling down my face I was highly upset because I do not get a chance to spend time with my kids the way I want because of my work schedule and because I run a business. It was disheartening to watch my son show me the gifts that I had bought him as if staff members threw him a party.He literal said mommy they gave me a cake and toys for my birthday.My problems with Ms.Hawkins started that day not because she took matters into her own hands but when I asked her about calling me she had no real response. I asked her what if there was emergency how was she get in contact with me if my kids were hurt then she said oh we have your number we can call you. Then she also mentioned that she didn’t have to approve my sons party in the first place. Which I felt was irrelevant at the time because she had already approved it. It felt like a slap in my face.I got my keys and left and tried my best to forget about that day. But because of this situation tensions began to grow. I ignored her snarky comments and hold my composure in her presence.My next issue Following the incident was the fact that my son was coming to your facility and not completing his class work. I was getting calls from his teacher that he wasn’t completing anything and that he wasn’t logining in .When my children first started the daycare I presented them with the class schedule the login information the email and the password to sign in. Their first excuse was they can log him in so I gave them the information again.I spoke to the staff members and asked was he working and one day one of the staff members literally looked at him and ask him was he doing his schoolwork my son said yes and she shook her head and say yes back to me as if his confirmation was good enough.. Another instance I asked was he doing his work then I asked can you look on his computer and see what he’s doing she said oh he’s on YouTube. I said he’s on YouTube during instructional time? She had no response after. I asked Miss a Hawkins what was going on and where they understaffed she blatantly looked me in the face and said No were just busy and we can’t tend to every student.After that incident I didn’t started noticing that Ms. Byers was there. She said she was training Ms.Hawkins.I talked to her about my concerns and she did confirm that they were understaffed and looking to hire new staff members to make sure the Kids were doing their assignments.That same day another parent was irate and yelling about the same thing about her children not doing any work and that she was going to withdraw them.I decided to give Morgans academy a chance because we were relatively new and I did not want to let anyone else decisions or comments about the Academy influence my decisions.On October 20,2020 I had a meeting with Ms. Byers and Ms.Hawkins. I explained that I was trying to get my kids help with his schooling and that because of the lack of work being completed at the other daycare’s that he was behind. Along with the fact that my children have been dealing with traumatic experiences that lead to us having to separate from our family support system.I explained that my children have nowhere to go. I literally explain to them that Morgans Academy is the only thing that I have that’s keeping my kids safe and can help make sure the work gets completed. Ms.Byers said that she would do anything in her power to make sure that my son was completing the work and learning the assignments. She requested that I send her a link to my sons next virtual conference so she could be in attendance with the teachers and counselors and I did. On October 23 ,2020 I received a termination letter from Ms.Hawkins stating that I was not pleased with the service they provided and that she was terminating my care with my children.I have never taken the time out to write a letter this long to express my concerns With a child care facility. I am highly upset. I do not know if Ms.Hawkins has children or she has ever gone through a situation like this but I truly in my heart feel as though that she maliciously decided to terminate my children’s daycare all because she doesn’t like me .Her attitude is repulsive. I got a call from her stating that my son threw up and needed to be picked up.I asked her what did he eat and she had a attitude saying he ate breakfast .I asked her what he had for breakfast and she had had he had breakfast and lunch again. At this point I ask her “Am I not allowed to ask what my son specifically ate to see what might have got him sick?This is one of many exchanges that we have had.Even if Ms.Hawkins personal feelings are not the issue if someone is having a problem with your service should the next step be to cancel their service instead of reconciling the problem? Let’s not forget to mention that both of my kids were injured this week and last week. I understand that you guys are understaffed and that you can’t watch them every moment but please I am willing to work with you guys as you find new staff and grow.I am not sure if the termination was simply approved by Ms. Hawkins or if she consulted with you Ms.Morgan first.If you did not approve the termination I have to ask you is this the director you want to represent your company?She should be holding herself to your core values and principles to provide exemplary service to the children parents and staff.I do not feel like a termination was warranted. If I wanted to take my kids out of the program I would have done so. I did not see a clause in the paperwork stating that you can terminate a student at any time with no real reason. Ms.Hawkins did not deem it necessary to uphold the academy at its highest standards but instead taking the easy route by just terminating me. I was under the impression that Ms.Byers would be there to help my child and resolve the issues that we were having. I had no idea that I will be terminated four days later. No one ever mentioned anything about termination.I believe that it should’ve been mentioned at the meeting if there was a problem.I had no idea that Miss Hawkins even want to terminate my children’s care.Now I have to spend another school day looking for another’s facilitiy for my children.I am highly disgusted. I sat and talk to her multiple times and even cry in front of her letting her know how I feel about my children’s well-being and education. I am all they have and I take pride in being their advocate.It seems her only interest is those of her own and not the facility the children or the parents. She does not have to like me but I expect a level of professionalism and her to handle situations by procedures and not out of spite. She could have more empathy towards my children and I during these uncertain times.In our personal interactions I feel that her attitude and actions were disgusting,dismissive argumentative and unjust.Again I ask you is this the person you would like represent your company as the director ? I would like my kids to be re-enrolled at the facility intil further notice if we could resolve this matter. I would like to forward this letter to bright from the start and the state licensing board to see if we could possibly all sit down for meeting and see if this issue can be resolved. But before I contact them I would like you to call me or email me at your earliest convenience to see is there anything that you can do first.
