I have used this provider for less than 6 months

Charity Hawkins is very unprofessional to certain families. She first wouldn't hire a friend of mine because of her Equal Opportunity Rights and told another friend of mine that she will report her because she asked for help. I thought daycare were suppose to help families stay together not break them apart.
