Review Policy:
ChildcareCenter.us does not actively screen or monitor user reviews, nor do we verify or edit content. Reviews reflect
only the opinion of the writer. We ask that users follow our
review guidelines. If you see a review that does not reflect these guidelines, you can email us. We will assess
the review and decide the appropriate next step. Please note – we will not remove a review simply because it is
negative. Providers are welcome to respond to parental reviews, however we ask that they identify themselves as
the provider.
We are utterly floored by our experience here and of what we witnessed and were subjected to. The bizarre behavior, irrationality and attempts at intimidation were unconscionable. I will not air our bad experience here, but welcome - and have been responding to - any private messages. No false or embellished statements in an attempt to defame the establishment will be made. Only facts as they occurred will be shared. Most of this is in writing from the director herself, whose conduct was aggressive and downright maniacal.
Since my initial review, I have been contacted by others who had similar experiences. Negative reviews in the past were met with harassment until they finally gave up and took them down. I suspect this is the reason that there is only one 1-star review on facebook and no reviews on yelp other than my own at the time of my review. But this is pure speculation.
As a result of the director's actions, I feel the need to note:
Any attempt at coercion, harassment, intimidation through any form of contact in attempt to have me remove or alter my review as well as attempts at "black listing" with other establishments will not be tolerated and will be met with legal proceedings as well as additional reporting to, but not limited to, the Better Business Bureau and the TN DHS, Child Care Licensing Board.
Feel free to contact me directly for specifics about my experience and thank you for those of you who have contacted me with your experiences as well as those interested in our ordeal. I am still in shock from the handling and bullying involved. I simply would NOT recommend this facility and we are very fortunate to be going elsewhere.
