We provide balanced meals for our children, unless families prefer to bring lunches from home. Our Parent Handbook Policies Agreement includes feedings and healthy snacks and foods. This is what we follow closely, even with food from home. We are a peanut free school and take this very seriously for the health and safety of the children. We also prefer parents not sending chocolate m&m’s and Reese’s Pieces as part of the child’s meal. This poses a risk with the ingredients in these candies. We placed the candy back into the child’s lunch box and offered fresh fruit. Mom came in at pick up and stated fussing and raising her voice at my teacher in front of the children in the classroom. When I found out about this I explained to mom that this was unacceptable. I sent a message out to mom and dad that this was grounds for immediate dismissal from care. Dad also became verbally aggressive and has to ask them to leave our school immediately.
I approach each and everyone equally with respect, but will not allow parents to be rude and hateful to any of our teachers, vise versa I require teachers be kind and respectful to families. Children are always watching and listening to us as they grow and learn.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

The administration staff are not very open communicators to the parents. The customer service is horrible towards parents. The owner does not like to be professional and thinks texting is an appropriate way of handling a parents concern. I asked to meet with the owner and she says she is to busy every time. The one time I did get a chance to talk to her she got very defensive and cussed in front of my child. From her assistant director she is not a great person to work for. The teachers are alright. We were at this daycare for almost 2 years and this is how we got told we were not welcomed back. All because we had a concern about our daughter not getting what was sent in her lunch box and items of hers continuously going missing. We left before the 2 weeks because when we walked into the owners office to discuss the text my husband and I got, the owner (Susan) told us to get out that she could not talk because she was doing payroll. The place we are now is a little more expensive but totally worth it. We have had a lot positive experience, so my advice is keep looking, cheaper is not always better for a child. $25 more a week is not much more to consider for happiness and wellbeing.
