I have used this provider for more than 6 months

They abused my son. They denied services for my child and withheld medication. They reported my family to children and youth because they where mad I exposed them. Children and youth services caught them in a lie. They refuse to let you see their cameras if something happens to your child after they agree to. When you give them a 2 weeks notice they find a reason to terminate their agreement with you. If yo udon it agree with them you are considered aggressive. They fired a worker for telling parents what was going on and the daycare told parents she was crazy and off her medications. They restraint my son and failed to provide a incident report (knowing they legally did not have the right to) and my son was bruised on his chest. They are currently being investigated by the state.
