Do not send your child here. They abuse children and tried to cover it up. Now they're deleting all the bad reviews online. Look up the viral video of the teacher abusing children on live cam.
witnessed via live streaming a worker handling the children in my daughters 3s class extremely aggressively including hitting them with a ruler, picking children up in the air by one arm and putting them on the ground aggressively, and yanking children so hard their head snapped back. I called the daycare immediately and reported what I saw. The director called me back and basically accused me of fabricating the events saying that “Mrs Linda has been here for 25 years and would never do that”. Well there is video evidence that Mrs Linda did in fact do EXACTLY what I said she did. They just started live streaming services two month ago. I hope DHHS, who I reported the incident to, can look through camera footage from before then because I can’t imagine what these workers did off camera!!
