What's wrong with these teachers you hire to work in play haven Altas and don't know what their doing .Being on their phones while be outside with the kids on the play ground it's very bad ,it should be safety number 1 when children are playing on the play ground because their can get hurt, not have a teacher sit on her phone ,while kids are playing on ground. Your child care teachers and assistant teachers should be washing their faces and hands between meals and even coming in from outside.Not send them home to their parents with dirty faces and dry food crusted to their faces that's neglect to the kids in the center of their well being .The kids in the center need a nap mat of their own or a sleeping bag of their own ,not a fleece blanket to sleep on that's just crazy ,having the kid sleep on the hard floor like that in naptime .what's up with your teachers not knowing their ratios for some teachers to so many kids in the room. Think .You teachers and assistant teachers you should know how to do a head count before you leave the class room and don't leave a child in the class room alone when you are going down the stairs .You should know how many kids you have at all times . This center was a 5 star but know it's a 3 stars that's so terrible, really really bad
