I am an employee

Owner genuinely cares but has terrible management and organizational skills. Teachers are under paid over worked and pitted against others. Students are taught a solid curriculum and all staff really care but favoritism is rampant. Would not recommend until they get themselves better put together

Its funny how that neg. report came after the fake named person "Lisa" Was fired from there..... That is such a shame that you would try and run down a great place. Yes they have Camera's and they have no problem allowing anyone to view them.... Funny how this place has a perfect score from DHR. Get over yourself Lisa...... Its a great Place that is growing fast!!!!!! I love it.....

This place seems alright at first but don't let the fake smiles fool you. The disciplinary acts are unreal. I've heard the horror stories. Locking a screaming child in a bathroom, spoon feeding a child vinegar. One teacher even hit a child who was18 months old. I've reported this place. They seem nice but once you turn around they are talking about you and your child. Either it be how poor you are, how behind on your payments you are, or how your child has big eyebrows. It's not as good as it seems. All of them need to be fired. Ask to see the cameras and you will understand.

My grandchild has been going here for over a year now.  This is the cleanest facility in the area.  My daughter and I looked at 30 different facilities before choosing this one.  They have a curriculum and weekly themes and I am very happy that my grandaughter is here.  They are also state-licensed.  My daughter looks forward to going and misses her teachers and friends when she is not there.  I like the small, family-like atmosphere.  They provide snacks and lunch, and prepare everything on-site. They consistently get high ratings from the Health Department.  Also, the pictures shown on this website are very old and do not reflect how nice the place is.
