I have used this provider for more than 6 months

When choosing a daycare, make sure and check the DHS website for the center's Reports and Complaints. It's eye opening...

I have toured this provider's facility, but have not used its services

Went to this day care with my husband. The owner would not let us in and stood in the doorway while she talked to us. She kept on talking about us going online and apply for government assistance.I guess its because I am a black person ....and black equals government assistance. I would not take my son to a day care whose owner judges people who go there based on race or whatever.
