I am an employee

Director Ms. Tate was mean, condescending and unprofessional. The one year teacher Ms. Maria (black lady with daughters) who worked there was too harsh on the children. She was all about power and control when it came to the toddlers. She shouldn’t have be been teaching children because her methods were NOT age appropriate at all!!

I have used this provider for less than 6 months

This place has to high of a teacher turn out rate. The director is not friendly and talks over you. The infant class is always out of control with one teacher that is visible in the classroom. The infant teacher also does not look as if she can handle 10 being in the classroom at one time. The 2 year old teacher raises her voice at the kids way to often and the kids are scared of her. The 1 year old teacher is awesome.
