I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My child has been at this facility for 2 years and is still there only because other places have waiting lists. I haven't received a progress report in almost 2 years every time I ask they tell me "next moth". Administrative staff has changed a lot and now it seems like nobody knows what is going on. My child's teacher is very "disconnected" tried several times to have a conversation with her and got one word answers....Cant wait for graduation!!!

Very unhappy parent Mar 16, 2016
I have used this provider for less than 6 months

This is the worst place ever. I totally regret having brought my daughter to this place. Looks can be deceiving. The staff is unqualified . One of the staff in charge of the nursery is a chain smoker very stinky . Since I brought my baby to this place she is sick every week before that she was very healthy. She was full of scratches and the person in charge by the way have very bad attitude gave me no explanation at all. This people are in the wrong business and the wrong job. Babies poop and pee . A few times a day and they need to be changed of diapers . They don't change diapers as they should and to cover the rash apply lots of desitin .

Its a nice open area..much different from many of the other daycares, but the play area in the back is much too easily accessible to the public. The director seems very nice and passionate about her position and daycare, however when she is not there some of the teachers namely the ones who watch the pretoddlers are quite inappropriate and unprofessional. In a good daycare they would be assistants if anything. I would choose the Education Station over this place any day.

Okay I been working there already 3 weeks and the staff have been very getto!!!unprofessiona. I been observing everything and now I'm leaving I can't stand how Dirty and disorganized they are. They don't wash and disinfected toys,beds,floors,bathrooms they think by washing the toys once a week is ok which is very disgusting they shoud be disinfected every after noon like other state required. Now there is a LEAD teacher that clams she is a Gang member. They handle the kids too rough speaks to them like they are animals lots of incident report are being made and others are being ignored. Lunches are being serve with roches... They for get to buy cleaning supply and they also leave cleaning supply has mop, broom, around the Kids. Its 2013 people should check the reviews on any place where your child is going...always under staff plus Child Ratios within Group Size should be right they never follow state regulations that why I not going back thanks for reading this and hope this makes a change in parents life CHECK YOUR CHILD and REVIEWS 1ST.
