On July 12th, I picked up my kids from this daycare. On our way home, I asked my kids how their day was. My daughter let me know that Marcie(owner) had slapped her on her face. I asked her again to make sure I heard her right. She repeated the same thing and then showed me where Marcie hit her. Immediately, I tried getting a hold of Marcie to ask what happened. I was told she left early and was given her number by a staff member. I asked if she smacked my daughter in the face. She asked what my daughter told me and then said it was a reaction and was sorry. First she said my daughter stuck her tongue out at her, then changed it and said my daughter hit her. She said she was going to tell me but "was too busy". I explained it is never ok to hit someone's child and she said she agrees and my daughter shouldn't put hand either. I said my daughter is 4 years old and she's a grown adult. She knows better, you would think, especially if you're the owner of a child care center. I will NEVER take my kids back to this place again! Last month, my son was hurt playing on their playground to the point he ended up in the ER and needed to wear a neck brace for a week. One of the teacher said he was playing on a area of the playground that was "not safe". Why would that still be part of the playground is its considered unsafe!? I dont trust these kids are being closely monitored and supervised. I do not trust them with my children and would not recommend them to anyone! Who knows how many other times these types of situations happened to the kids and parents are never notified.
Now, when we get ready to go anywhere, my daughter asks where we're going. She says she don't want to go back to daycare because of Marcie.
The new owners have improved this center. They are now an exceptional center. The kids are so advanced when they start school. They teach very well and take the time with each student.
