Initially when I signed my 1 year old up for his first time in daycare, the owner seemed very caring. My child was at the stage of feeding himself and enjoyed activities. On his first day, I received a call that my child was running wild within one hour of dropping him off. They placed him in the room with infants and no structured activities. They informed me that they didn't want him back after spending only 1 hour with him. I enrolled him in KidsNet and the teachers had structured activities and had him in a routine within 1 week. Never once have they informed me that my child was misbehaving. They always state that he is a very happy and calm child. As an educator, I always took the time to get to know a child before I ever discussed any issues with a parent. I found Building Blocks staff to be very intolerant to the needs of children transitioning to a new environment. It was a terrible experience.
