If you value the health and safety of your children, do not sent them to this so called "school". With one exception, the employees of this facility are uninterested babysitters, not caregivers and certainly not teachers of any kind. They value sitting with their coffee and yelling at children from across the room over the actual care of your children. Both of my children sustained serious injuries, each requiring Emergency Room visits and medical care, while in attendance at this school. Supervision is minimal. Standards of any kind are non-existent. I witnessed what I consider to be neglect and verbal abuse on several occasions. I worried about my children every moment they were there, until I could find another school, with actual caregivers and an actual curriculum. If you are considering this daycare, I highly advise choosing another option, any other option.
