Description: Twenty-five years ago St. John's Daycare was started when a church member, Doris Koehler, saw a need for child care in the Nazareth area. Since that time we have continued to grow. We strive to provide high quality childcare in an atmosphere where a child can feel safe, loved, and supported in reaching their fullest potential.
We have a dedicated staff of 21 teachers. Most of our staff have been with us for more than five years. Some have even been here 15-20 years! We are a Keystone Stars program; therefore, all our teachers take continuing classes each year. Many of them have earned degrees in Early Childhood Education.

We fell in love with this daycare the moment we walked through with my son. He started shortly after he turned 1. The young toddler teacher was not very friendly or welcoming. She did not talk to me when I picked my child up. He came home several times with the wrong pacifier even though i was told they only used it during nap time. When I informed the teacher it was the wrong one she argued with me. As if I dont know what kind I give my kid? Then we started noticing bruises. I asked my dr to take a look and was told they were fingertip bruises. My only guess (since no one could provide me with information) was that they were trying to get him to sit down for their "circle times" and he didnt want to. My son doesn't sit still long periods of time. We pulled him after the third time the bruising happened.
My Son would come home favoring his hand when we asked about it they told us nothing has been reported.
Then he told us another child may remain nameless on here was hitting him and i found out that childs grandmother was a aid in the same class.When we had a meeting with the director she just said ill look into it. She called later that day and said the only thing that they could think of is my son fell holding the rope going to the park.
I asked why we were not told about it and we were told they cant tell all parent about everything that happens. I replied really? We are taking him elsewhere. Beware they hide things and his teacher was rude and hurries you out during drop off and pick up. Seem to be hiding stuff daily.
