We initially liked this daycare. We even chose it over a more modern facility because the staff seemed genuine and caring. However, we became annoyed at how often they shut down and the unreasonable hours which don’t really work for working parents. Then it got even worse when our baby caught Covid. He was positive on a rapid at home on Sunday and we kept him home Monday and waited for an appointment for a pcr from our pediatrician. Apparently my husband and I didn’t handle it the right way. According to them we needed to tell them sooner, mind you our son hadn’t been in the school because we kept him home. They told us to keep him home for two weeks and we said okay. Then a day later they sent an email kicking us out of the daycare. In the end, they acted unkindly and unprofessionally. I feel sad for my 8 month old who is going to miss out on socialization with his baby friends and now having to transition him to a different daycare. They tout being Christian but in actuality are awful people. No phone call, just a very rude email dismissing us.
