Im writing this again because I realized I did it under my new email and I worry some may think its a fake account. It is not. I made the review and if anybody has any concerns I am fine with you contacting me.

I made a review Years ago. When I was a little girl I was molested by a foster brother (I was a foster child living under Trudys care) I unfortunately...Was too afraid to say anything about this abuse as a little girl. But it was not for a lack of trying. My foster brother knew that Trudy was always watching and always protecting... So he would go upstairs or confirm that she was sleeping and he would abuse me. Through out my entire life i have been hurt multiple times by multiple men (and women) But i always felt safest with trudy. Sorry... I call her Mema. She will always be my mema. She treated me like a mother should, She taught me to dance and she taught me strength. I never intended to ruin HER reputation by making my review. I only wanted to protect children who could NOT protect themselves... because someone had told me that someone who was no longer living there WAS living there. Mema has told me so many times and i was just afraid to believe it... but she no longer has this man in her life. Her children have always come first and I hope anybody that sees this knows that. Mema Is a protector. She is a guardian angel. And she knows what to look for..... But unfortunately....You have to sleep sometime. I do not blame mema/trudy or anybody who runs this wonderful daycare for anything that happened to me anymore... I was in avery hurt place when i made that review and i just want to say how sorry i am for anybody who turned mema away... because your children could not be safer ANYWHERE else. She is mother of many...and I would have been honored to have been adopted by her. She taught me how to care for children in that daycare. (She never made me do it... but i loved helping) And it was amazing the patients she had where even i did not. If a baby cried, she was on it. If a kid hit, she was on it, if someone was hurting, she was there to hold them and comfort them. I feel terrible guilt for making that review as i never would wish harm on mema... I just wanted to protect the kids...but she already was. Unfortunately...Predators know what they can get away with. And she was a victim in this too... So i hope this means something to someone. Anyone. Mema will protect your babies...as if they were her own. And I believe she deserves that chance. And so do you.

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

This daycare is a hidden gem! As someone who does not have much family close Trudy’s daycare is a blessing. My two kids have been going there for awhile and love it. My little guy call her his grandmother. She loves and cares for the kids and is very reasonable priced and flexible.

She will work with you. I am so thankful I found her!

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I have had my grandson in this daycare for over a year now. I have never had a problem. My grandson is only two and does not talk. since being here with all the other babies he is doing great. I have never seen any foster care kids here or people that dont belong. I have picked up early and late and I have never once been charged extra or been told not to come late. Trudy does understand and works with you. Thank you for being a great place

As someone who was on the inside of this facility for years as a child under trudy abrams and families care, i am saying this with a very guilty heavy heart. Unfortunately, there were some things that went on under trudys nose that she was not aware of for the time duration of me being in her care. Trudy and her husband carl foster children atop providing childcare for the community. Although trudy is a wonderful woman, she had failed to protect me from sexual abuse by her foster son agustin (aka Peto) This man is still in and around her home and i believe to the very highest extent that he has harmed more foster children as well as potentially daycare children. My abuse took place 10-15 years ago and he is still to this day still in the home. So please talk to your children. Trudy, i am sorry it has come down to this, but i cannot allow any more children to be harmed due to my silence.
