Both of my children attended Trin-Dale Children Center from the time they were 8 weeks old until they began school. I was always treated with respect and welcomed in the facility any time of day to visit with my kids. The above post regarding Nicole Macon is an unfair representation of this wonderful lady. The children and parents love her. My children are now 10 and 12 and are very respectful, well mannered, academically gifted children. I would recommend this daycare and this teacher to anyone. BTW, at the age of 4 my daughter was saying the Lord's Prayer at their preschool graduation and she was taught by Mrs. Macon. I never worried about their safety with Deborah, Susie and Nicole. They love these kids with all their heart. My kids still say can we just go back to preschool! They miss it!
I was treated with the most disrespect today, why on earth would a teacher or teachers assistant want to fight a parent. That is the question I am asking myself? These are some of the most UN-thoughtful, highly disrespectful people I know of. Please do not leave your children at this Daycare, its not fit for Children of any age. Nicole Macon is the worst by far, child attendant I have ever witnessed in my life. She left her classroom today to pick a fight with a child's parent who wanted to give them their X-mas presents. What is the world coming to. Are your children not important enough to have them supervised responsibly??? PARENTS BEWARE!!!!
