I am an employee

If I could give less stars I would. The owner is at most disrespectful to her team and puts them down via weight/body comments, racial ignorance, work ethic (even if it’s perfect it’s not good enough) she is a Narcissist and won’t believe that any problem is because of her. Many employees cried on a daily basis. Trust me the employees are the dumb ones and are always in the wrong. She is not always good to the children ,she likes to make it seem that way at pick up and drop off but do not be fooled. She says she never says no but says it all the time and raises her voice in a way so that it seems like she could just be talking loudly. By far a terrible place to put your kids very disorganized and negative energy. I recently quit because it wasn’t worth crying over anymore. She would also leave her employee by themselves literally 1 person alone with 10-15 kids at a time on random appts that weren’t made known to anyone before she just took them out of no where. I have many emotional damage from this job will never go back.
